I really wanted to love the Yarbo system because the concept is amazing — robotic lawn care and snow blowing in one platform sounds like the future. Unfortunately, the actual ownership experience has been incredibly frustrating. The biggest issue has been customer support. Responses are either extremely delayed or nonexistent. When you’re dealing with expensive equipment that isn’t working properly, waiting days or weeks for meaningful help is unacceptable. It honestly feels like once they have your money, support becomes an afterthought. The battery performance has also been disappointing. Runtime is inconsistent, charging takes longer than expected, and in colder weather the snow blower setup drains fast. For a product marketed around automation and convenience, constantly worrying about battery levels defeats the purpose. Then there’s the app — easily one of the weakest parts of the experience. The software feels unfinished and unreliable. Features are buggy, connections randomly fail, mapping can be inconsistent, and updates sometimes seem to create new problems instead of fixing old ones. For the premium price Yarbo charges, I expected polished hardware, dependable software, and responsive support. Instead, it feels like an expensive beta test with customers acting as unpaid QA testers. Update 9/30/2026 - Yarbo support proactively reached out to make sure my unit was working and to apologize for the previous support delays. My unit was having additional issues to which they promptly diagnosed and took care of the issues. It seems they have updated their post-sales support issues, which was the largest issue in my previous review. The app continues to get better but still has features that would help make the user experience better like being able to add no go zones without driving the robot to the area on the map. I have adjusted my review to reflect the updated customer service, but can't give the product a 5 unless the newest fixes resolve the ongoing issues.

I’ve been using Yarbo on my rural property for a few months now, and when it works, it’s like magic. But there’s a catch: it requires a lot of babysitting. The battery is a bit of a bottleneck; it takes hours to charge and often gets 'stuck' at a certain percentage, meaning I have to manually send it back out at 50% just to get the job done. The real headache, though, is the navigation. It always tries to take the shortest route home, which usually means slamming straight into a snow wall on my curvy driveway. Once it’s stuck, it drains its battery trying to escape, leaving me to trek out and rescue a heavy, dead robot in the middle of a storm.

I purchased my Yarbo to take on the mowing maintenance work of my property, about 1.6 acres of grass in total. I have wide open skies and both GPS and HaLOW work like a charm. The mowing experience has been mixed. Yarbo is excellent for Kentucky blue grass sod. It's not so great at longer field grass (fescue/rye/buffalo mix) mostly due to the the mower design. I've had some minor hiccups with Yarbo getting stuck due to "obstructions" which aren't real and I have to prod it along. So there are ups and downs but I haven't touched a mower all summer so it's taken all the work off of the family, freeing up time for hobbies, sports, etc., which was our goal. I'd say Yarbo takes more frequent maintenance (weekly greasing, monthly blade changes, cleaning out grass, etc) than a traditional mower but it's less work each visit, if that makes sense.

So far so good. First started with the Snowblower last winter, it did a great job even in a rural setting on gravel driveways and parking lot areas, it just does the work. Alone comes spring, summer, and fall and I never had to manually cut grass, not even once, 5 acres of grass. I upgraded to the Pro Mower, even better performance for my dense wet grass.

I got the snow blower and mow pro combo. There have been a few hiccups but so far I'm pleased with the performance of the mower. Support has been good responding timely and addressing issues satisfactorily. The hardware is very promising, I'm looking forward to getting the Back Brace Mount so I can tow a small trailer around the yard, the stock mount is really only for very light loads or trailers/carts that support themselves and only apply pulling loads not tongue weight. The software is currently adequate but they are very responsive to feature requests and feedback and I'm excited to see how it matures over the next year+👍

Jeg modtog min plæneklipper PRO i dag. Har brugt min plæneklipper hele året men PRO modulet er 100 gange bedre. Kan ikke vente til Trimmeren kommer hjem.

I did a tremendous amount of research on robotic mowers before finally ordering the Yarbo. I was concerned that I didn't know the company at all, and this is a large investment. I had seen numerous complaints about quality and service online, but after a month, my experience has thankfully been much different. Are there still improvements needed? Yes. But, if you are willing to put in the time to setup the mower correctly, it will absolutely work. The first thing you will notice when you unbox is that this is a serious machine. The weight and build quality are very nice. The instructions could use some work, but overall, the manuals are pretty good. It's pretty easy to get the mower setup, but you have to get the data center setup in a great area. No shortcuts here! I opened support tickets and they are very responsive. I usually can get at least 1-2 replies per day on questions. I have some initial issues that I'm still using workarounds for, but the tickets are still open and someone updates me on status (at least letting me know they are still looking into it). What would make my experience 5 star? Instruction manuals could use improvement. Also, easier to locate maintenance instructions like tightening tracks, greasing the tracks, etc. Also, working out these vision bugs.

So far so good. Yarbo is by no means perfect. However I will say that my lawn looks better than it ever has and my yarbo has certainly become the talk of the neighborhood. I've had a few issues with broken cutting disks, trailer hitches and the charging pad. With that said, I reached out to support each time and they sent me replacements with no issue. There is definitely a learning curve, but overall I would recommend yarbo to others.
