Our take
EGO AURA-R2 RMR1500E
Good systematic mowing and a reassuring garden-tool brand behind it, but the navigation is less polished than the best Mammotion or Husqvarna systems. We would buy it for dealer support rather than cutting-edge autonomy.
Independent testing praises straight mowing lines, solid cut quality and the EGO dealer/battery ecosystem.
Obstacle avoidance is erratic, auto-mapping is absent, an RTK station is required and the app still needs work.
Lawns suited to wire-free path iq navigation.
Gardens outside its stated lawn-size, slope, positioning or boundary requirements.
- Wire-free PATH IQ navigation
- Rated for lawns up to 1,500 m²
What reviewers found
T3’s two-week RMR1500E test found accurate parallel mowing but less convincing obstacle handling. The strong garden-tool brand does not by itself establish mature autonomy.
The lawn result
The reviewer found orderly mowing on a simple lawn and successfully positioned the supplied RTK antenna near trees. That is an observed result at one site, not proof for every wooded garden.
[1]Setup and objects
The tested software lacked automatic mapping, and obstacle avoidance was unpredictable with smaller objects. The reviewer also felt the outer construction was less impressive than its premium positioning suggested. It is sensible to judge the actual installation and current firmware before paying for the name.
