Imagine not having to cut your grass while you save the environment and save money at the same time. Sound too good to be true? Well it isn’t. Let us introduce to you, the LawnBott.

It’s futuristic technology for present day mowing. This week’s go green save green, we’re in Greenville to talk about how a robot can mow your lawn while you sit inside and sip on a cold beverage.

Robots taking over the earth…ok not really, but how about taking over your lawn?
“They’re like laptops with blades,” says John Tarvin, Marketing Manager for the LawnBott. It’s a portable lawn mower that cuts your grass so you don’t have to. See more here.

“There’s zero gas, zero oil it uses a lithium ion battery. It does take about 7 to 10 dollars a year in electricity. It’s very green, we don’t have any emissions,” states Tarvin.

Tarvin tells us the LawnBott has been around for eight years in Europe and is now taking center stage in the Upstate.

“For the LawnBott owner, you’re never going to have the situation you have right here because it’s never going to let the grass get grown up. By coming out a couple of times a week, it always keeps your yard well trimmed,” explains Tarvin.

It’s a totally programmable lawn mower that trims your yard when you tell it to and it even knows when it’s too wet to mow.

“If it starts to rain while its cutting, it drives itself back to the docking station, takes a nap and is ready to come back the next day.”

With over 30 million lawn mowers sold in the U.S. the LawnBott is doing its part to Go Green and Save Green.
