Do any of these four robot mowers use RTK positioning?

Only the AIRSEEKERS Tron SE fuses VSLAM with NetRTK satellite positioning, per AIRSEEKERS' own comparison page. TerraMow, Ecovacs, and Worx all navigate by camera vision alone.

Which of these mowers has the longest independent testing record?

The Worx Landroid Vision M800 has the longest record on file. It has been on sale since April 2023, and its record cites extended-use accounts from several reviewers, including one owner's nearly eight weeks of daily runs, plus owner forum reports on its firmware. The Ecovacs Goat GX-600 has been on sale since January 2024. The TerraMow V1000 rests on a single hands-on review, and no extended-use review of the AIRSEEKERS Tron SE was found.

Does the Worx Landroid Vision M800 store a boundary map?

No. The Worx Landroid Vision M800 classifies grass frame by frame from its camera, and its record says no boundary is stored, so a yard change needs no action from the owner. The trade is that it stops only where the camera sees grass end, and independent reports describe its coverage pattern as random bounce.

Why is there so little independent coverage of the AIRSEEKERS Tron SE and TerraMow V1000?

Both are recent entrants. The AIRSEEKERS Tron SE record found no extended-use review or owner forum for the SE, only announcement coverage, and reviewers lean on the standard Tron as a proxy. The TerraMow V1000 record rests on a single hands-on review plus manufacturer specifications, with no long-term owner record yet.

What does each mower cost to maintain, beyond the mower itself?

Only the Worx Landroid Vision M800 record prices a part: blade sets at $35 to $45, with a five-minute swap, plus weekly lens cleaning in wet seasons. The Ecovacs Goat GX-600 uses blades sold in GOAT multi-packs, with a spare set in the box. The TerraMow V1000 record lists blade swaps and camera-lens cleaning as the recurring tasks. Blade prices for the Ecovacs, TerraMow and AIRSEEKERS Tron SE are not verified on their records.

Research-only review, Sep 2026

Same on all four: no buried boundary wire, and each reads the lawn with cameras.

At the corner of a garden shed, an AIRSEEKERS Tron SE robot mower sits docked on its charging station, whose one lead runs from an outdoor socket down the wall and along its foot.

Do any of these four use RTK positioning?

Only the Tron SE lists it, as Vslam+NetRTK, and its box contents include an RTK signal base station. The TerraMow page says no RTK antenna is needed. The GOAT GX-600 and Landroid Vision use cameras.

Does the rated lawn size mean one charge covers it?

No. The Tron SE is rated for 16,146 sq ft but one charge covers 4,306 sq ft (400 m²). The GOAT GX-600 lists 70-100 m² (753-1,076 sq ft) per charge for a 600 m² lawn.

Is there hands-on testing of each one?

Hands-on reviews were found for the TerraMow (Aug 2026) and GOAT GX-600 (Jun 2024), and one for a Landroid Vision (Apr 2024). For the Tron SE only a research-only review was found.
