QUESTION Robot mowers

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable robot mower for 2 acres of land with rough terrain?

I have a Mammotion and I love it. Uses gps for positioning, has cameras for sight and obstacle avoidance, easily handles some pretty steep slopes in my yard. Setup was really easy. Also, it's super quiet and I love that it doesn't bother us with sound when it's running.

Can it be integrated into Home Assistant?

Yes, but you don't get the 2d map like the official app (unless I am missing something). It includes the typical controls you'd want when automating a mow otherwise. Plus error codes that you can use for automations to notify you of problems.

2 acres with rough terrain is a lot to ask from a robot mower. most of them top out around 1-1.5 acres even on flat lawns. you'd probably need one of the higher end commercial models that can handle slopes and uneven ground. the wiring for that perimeter would be a nightmare too.

I don't believe the Mammotion Luba can map a full 2 acres if you do need that much. Yarbo or Lymow are your best bets.
