Husqvarna has created a compact and reliable Automower(R) robotic lawnmower for small gardens and lawns. It is now possible for all garden owners, no matter how small their lawn is, to give up their old walk-behind lawn mower.
The Husqvarna Group is the world's largest producer of outdoor power products including chainsaws, trimmers, lawn mowers and garden tractors. It is also the European leader in consumer irrigation equipment under the Gardena brand. The Group is also one of the world leaders in cutting equipment and diamond tools for the construction and stone industries. Net sales in 2009 were SEK 34 billion.
The new Automower(R) 305 robotic lawnmower represents the third generation of silent, automatic robotic lawn mowers that provide a perfect, trouble-free lawn. The compact and lightweight newcomer targets homeowners with smaller gardens with lawns, up to 500 square metres. The Automower(R) 305 robotic lawnmower is equipped with a rechargeable Li-lon battery. This battery-powered mower and can trim some bush for about 40 minutes on a full charge, which takes 150 minutes to achieve. The Automower also comes with a built-in anti-theft system capable of scaring of thieves with an alarm. The mower moves at 35 cm/s or 0.782927702 mph. It weighs only 7kg, making it easy to move between areas, for example in the case of townhouses with separated lawns, and it will not flatten the grass, but make it easier for the owner to move.

In the future, robotic lawnmowers will be as common for homeowners as dishwashers are today. Automower(R) 305 makes robotic mowing affordable for more homeowners, freeing up time for other activities without compromising on a well kept lawn, says Towe Ressman, head of Husqvarna Global Design.
Sans emissions whilst cutting, the Automower(R) robotic lawnmower fertilizes and cuts the lawn to perfection, all by itself, using less energy than a light bulb. The silent and well-designed robot will not only keep the lawn perfect, it will also be well appreciated by all the neighbours.
The recommended retail price for Husqvarna Automower(R) 305 is 1 490 EUR.
