6 sources$2,499.99as of Aug 1

The Ecovacs Goat A3000 LiDAR PRO cuts efficiently and has strong app functionality, according to PCWorld's Ed Oswald, but Bluetooth connectivity, narrow passage navigation, and slope detection problems keep it out of the top spot.

Buyers who want a capable, app-driven mower are the fit; anyone who needs precise navigation or has challenging terrain should consider alternatives.

— Outstanding app
— Fast, efficient cut even at its default speed

Watch-outs

— Unreliable Bluetooth connectivity during manual mapping
