It has a 16cm cutting width, a variable cutting height and works on terrain with an incline of up to 35%. It navigates effectively down passageways and into corners, and cuts in a streak-free manner thanks to its SensorCut technology which allows the mower to cut from different angles.

You can control the mower from both the on-board controls (which displays information on an integrated LCD screen) and with Bluetooth App control which has a 10 metre range. When running, the mower generates about 58dB(A) of noise. It's extremely easy to clean thanks to its hose-washable design. It's also protected against theft with a PIN code.
