From the best robot lawn mowers to the best robot vacuum cleaners, the household and garden helpers are becoming increasingly smart and genuinely useful – albeit with a hefty price tag. Aldi’s robot mower, however, is a fraction of the price of premium models that can fetch up to £1,500.
Costing £199.99 at Aldi, the robot mower manufactured by Yard Force is best suited to small to medium-sized lawns up to 400 square metres.
It features a 16cm cutting width, while the cutting height can be adjusted between 20–55mm to give your garden different effects. On top of one-time setup, the mower can be scheduled via a Bluetooth app and boasts a running time of one hour.
While it costs £350 on Yard Force’s website (£349.99, Yardforce.eu), Aldi has slashed the price to just less than £200 – but as it’s a specialbuy, it won’t be restocked. Here’s all you need to know.

Aldi Yard Force robot mower

Powered by a built-in 20V 2.0Ah lithium-ion battery, the Yard Force robot mower takes the hassle out of lawn mowing. As it’s suitable for gardens up to 400 square metres, small to medium lawns are where it works best.
With adjustable cutting height settings and Bluetooth app control, it takes the hassle out of lawn upkeep. The mower itself has three steel cutting blades, which can cut 16cm in width. If you have an uneven lawn surface, it has an integrated lift, tilt and turnover safety sensors, obstacle and radar detection sensors. Though, its maximum slope capability is up to 30 per cent.
It comes with a two-year warranty and a docking station to shield it from the elements. Now in store as part of Aldi’s specialbuys range, you don’t have long to snap it up. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
