PS a 25% gradient is the equivalent of rising one metre in vertical distance (height) for every four metres in horizontal distance (length).

I considered one for our garden but it looked v complicated with having to set up boundaries so it didn’t go off and mow half the neighbourhood. I pay someone £40 a month to do it for me, now

The NT garden where I volunteer has one and the grass always looks really good. Can’t help with the gradient though …

....... anyone got one? I can no longer do it myself and pay out a lot to have it done. I have seen a robot lawn mower reduced in amazon and am very tempted. Anyone got one and have any advice?

Also the one I am looking at can cope with a 25% gradient and I am puzzling how to calculate what gradient the small slope in my garden is - I should, have listened during maths!! Any bright suggestions gratefully received!
