Husqvarna Panthera Leo Mower Is Electric-Powered, LCD-Equipped

4:30PM Adrian Covert | Growing up, I hated mowing the lawn. My backyard was huge, my allergies were bad and I was stuck with a temperamental push mower. If I had this battery-powered Husqvarna mower, however, I would have begged to do yard work. More »

Husqvarna Robotic Lawn Mower Makes Chores Easier

7:00AM Adam Frucci | Lawn mowing, the bane of teenage boys’ existence everywhere, just got a whole lot easier. Husqvarna’s Auto Mower is the robot lawnmower we all dreamed about while pushing that POS John Deere around as kids, and now it’s here. Although, with the price hitting the thousands of dollars mark, it’s probably cheaper to just buy a crappy push mower and hire some local kids to do it for you. The cycle of punishment continues.

Three-in-One Lawn Care Device Mows, Throws and Blows

12:15AM Seamus Byrne | Why take up all that room in your garage for a lawnmower, leaf collector and snow blower when you can have this three-in-one device that handles all three tasks and only requires a third of the space? Oh, wait. You can’t have this device because it’s just a concept, but its modular design by Gustav Lamberg looks like a good idea, taking care of all of your internal combustion duties with just one noisemaking smoke-belching contraption instead of three. There’s not much explanation offered with these 3D renderings, but it appears that you attach a different front assembly for each of the three tasks. However, for a lot of the snowfall we see out here in the frozen tundra, that snow blower is not going to be quite tall enough. As a leaf collector, the device is going to need some sort of receptacle, too. If he takes care of those small details, all Gustav has to do is add solar power, an electric motor with a long-lasting battery and robotic capabilities, and he’ll be on to something here.
