Robot Lawn Mowing Is Here

A robot lawn mower is one of the simplest upgrades you can make to instantly improve your home, your time, and your curb appeal. Think of it as the modern equivalent of a smart thermostat—quiet, efficient, and always working in the background to make your life easier.

A Mowrator S1 robot is ready to mow your lawn!

Instead of spending weekends pushing a heavy mower or paying for a lawn service that shows up on its own schedule, a robot mower trims your grass automatically, as often as you’d like. The result is a consistently manicured lawn that looks professionally maintained every single day. Because it cuts a tiny amount of grass at a time, your yard becomes healthier, thicker, and greener with less effort.

Robot mowers are surprisingly quiet—many operate at a volume lower than a dishwasher—and they’re designed with sensors to avoid obstacles, pets, and children. Most models return themselves to a charging base, require minimal maintenance, and can be controlled from your phone. You can adjust cutting height, set schedules, or check in while you’re away.

For homeowners who value a beautiful yard and more free time, a robot lawn mower is a smart investment. It’s convenience, consistency, and curb appeal—all delivered automatically.

Do red cars cost more to insure?

You may have heard the myth that red cars cost more to insure, often with varying reasons why. The truth is, the color of your car has nothing to do with your premium. Insurance companies are more interested in your vehicle’s make, model, age, safety features, and your driving history. What’s not a myth, though — is that people really can save a ton of money by switching insurers. Check out Money’s car insurance tool to see if you could, too.
