The short answer is an unequivocal yes—and it saves you headache time, too. The true value of the Luba Mini AWD is its blend of reliable navigation and powerful mobility. Because it handled every aspect of the terrain without issue, I genuinely had zero negatives to report during my entire test period.

And the Luba is always one of the best ones to do it. Also has suspension. It's pretty cool how this thing works. So, you can see how that suspension compresses on there. Really sweet stuff that we don't see on a lot of mowers. You've got this front vision camera with two cameras and also a rain sensor on top.

They've been exceptional mowers, but in a small yard like this one, they're a bit overkill. I mean, it's almost bigger than the yard itself.

It's got excellent build quality. Single cutting disc with six blades. And the cutting disc itself, it's a lot more solid than the old style. Another new nice touch is the rubberized hand grips. Right, the first thing you need to do is select your positioning mode. You can access that in the settings. I've swapped over to the iron navi, which means I don't have to set up the RTK station.

And the materials and build is always impressive. The real value of the minieries from Mimotion is that you're getting the same materials, same quality, and same worksmanship right throughout at a much cheaper price. The only compromise being the time it takes to mow an area and how much it can mow. But in a smaller yard situation, that's not an issue.

Overall, no complaints. It's powerful, reliable, and very complete. It can handle tough gardens with slopes up to 80% thanks to its all-wheel drive and dual cutting decks. It also cuts very close to the edges, leaving only about 10 cm uncut, which is very good for a robot mower.

I noticed that it was very precise in the gardens where I tested it. This robot is designed to mow areas up to 1,000 square meters maximum. If you have more than 1,000 square meters, you have the Luba 3, which is more suitable for gardens of 1,500 square meters or more. On the sides, there are also quite a few protections. This is where we find the mini cutting deck underneath.

However, if the RTK antenna has bad reception, if you have a lot of trees, for example, tall trees or a lot of buildings, you have the option to switch it to Inavet RTK. That gives you this very handy option. Another point also to consider is the app. It's very intuitive, I think, and especially it's updated regularly by Motion.

That leaves about 10 cm of uncut grass. In other places, it cut up to there. Here, we're more at 6 cm. Honestly, that's still pretty close. I'm going to restart the robot. So, we're going to do another mowing. There will always be a bit of grass to mow yourself, but that's how it is with all robot lawnmowers. The string trimmer integrated into the robot is starting to appear on some models.

This is very stubborn and and can actually get stuck and run out of the battery due to that.
