Overview
- Roborock introduced the RockMow X120H in the U.S. on Thursday and the mower is on Amazon at a $700 introductory discount through Aug. 6 for $2,499.99 before returning to a $3,199.99 list price.
- The machine skips buried perimeter wires by building maps with a 360-degree LiDAR scanner and a vision camera, and users can also set boundaries manually through the Roborock app.
- The X120H is built for larger yards, with Roborock saying it can cover up to one acre, drive on slopes up to 45 percent, traverse narrow gaps of about 2.3 feet, and ride over small obstacles using a floating cutting deck.
- Smart features include AI-based obstacle avoidance, app control for mapping and guidance, an optional close-trim cutting module for cleaner edges, and three years of free 4G connectivity for remote tracking notes in the product listing.
- By removing wire installation and promising more rugged terrain handling, the mower targets homeowners who want autonomous lawn care for bigger or uneven lawns and could help push higher-end robot mowers into wider use.
