Roborock RockMow Z1 premium robotic lawnmower reviewed

The Roborock RockMow Z1 is positioned as a top‑of‑the‑range robotic lawnmower priced around £3,000. It features four‑wheel drive, individual steering motors and can tackle slopes up to 80 % (about 40 °) and holes up to 8 cm deep, covering up to 5,000 m² per day. Navigation combines RTK satellite positioning with VSLAM visual‑SLAM technology, and the unit includes built‑in 4G connectivity for reliable signal.

Its cutting system uses six durable blades on a double‑layered disc with an anti‑clog function, and the cutting height is electrically adjustable from 20 mm to 70 mm. The Preciedge edge‑cutting system trims within 3 cm of walls and fences. Reviewers noted the mower can be overly cautious, sometimes treating small objects like leaf piles as obstacles, but overall it delivers a clean cut and is praised for its robust app ecosystem inherited from Roborock's vacuum line.
