This, folks, is the lawn mower of the future according to Husqvarna. The Panthera Leo is made out of recycled materials and is equipped with five electric motors. Yes, electric. This mower doesn’t have a gas engine meaning you could cut your grass at 10:00 pm without bothering the neighbors. We’re starting to like the sound of this. Read More

Maintaining a good lawn is a full time job. Husqvarna has a robotic partner that might be able to give homeowners some more free time. First off, the Automower 260 ACX will automatically cut grass, but will also text the owner if there are issues. (the Twitter part was just a joke btw) This way, you don’t have to babysit the robot and go about watching the Detroit Tigers crush the Anaheim Angels.

A couple weeks back I was privileged enough to chop down some wood in NYC’s Central Park thanks to Husqvarna and their easy to use and almost fool proof chain saws. I may be from Oregon, but I don’t think I’ve touched a chain saw in over 10 years.

I also saw Husqvarna’s recently announced solar hybrid lawnmower. The Automower reminded me of a turtle with solar panels adourning its backside and even made me think that a small child could actually be underneath scooting it along. I think I may have still been inebriated from the night before though. A small wire must be laid underneath the perimeter of your lawn (up to a half acre), so the Automower knows where to go based on its on-board navigation system. It’s a crazy little machine that mows day and night, rain or shine and quietly makes its way back when it needs a boost of energy should the sun be blocked by clouds. I’d take one if I had a lawn.
