I am handicapped due to a recent hip fracture. My son and son-in-law helped me get my Yarbo up and running. It has been such a pleasure having my Yarbo mow my 1-acre of lawn. My neighbor commented on how well groomed my law has been. There were a few bumps in the road. Like a broken antenna when the Yarbo attempted to go under a trailer. Also when it ate some chicken wire. After putting in some "no go zones", the issues were resolved. I am looking forward to having my Yarbo snow blow my driveway this winter.

I purchased my Yarbo in July 2025 with 5 module attachments (Mower Pro, Snowblower, Leaf Blower, Smart Assist, and Trimmer). I received the Yarbo Core, Snow Blower module and Smart Assist module within a few weeks. About a month later, the Yarbo Core developed camera issues which required replacing the unit with a brand new Yarbo Core. I got the new Yarbo Core fairly quickly and it has been functioning well since. The Snow Blower module appears to be performing well, although I have not had the opportunity to test it in real snow yet since it is still early fall. The Smart Assist module (SAM) took a little time to understand but is working well too. I and many other Yarbo owners are still anxiously waiting on the next app/firmware update which will hopefully allow for the towing of lawn accessories (such as a seed and fertilizer spreaders) without jackknifing. Unfortunately, the app/firmware release date keeps getting pushed farther and farther back. A few weeks later, I received the Leaf Blower module. Overall, it has worked well. I have noticed if I keep the blower speed on high (level 3) the battery tends to overheat. It takes about 3-4 hours for the battery to cool down, before it will allow recharging. If I keep the speed on low or middle (level 1 or 2), it does not have this problem. This is a little inconvenient. I finally received the Mower Pro module the first week of October. I have been having "major issues" with this device. It is constantly thinking there is an obstruction in its path. It won't even leave the charging station on its own. I have to use the manual controller on the app to get it off the charger. Then it moves at a snail's pace. I have not been able to use this module for the past 2 weeks due to its poor functioning. I suspect the unit is probably defective and needs to be replaced. I do have an active "ticket" with the Yarbo support team but am disappointed in the response time. It is still early fall, and the grass is still growing. I am still waiting to receive the Trimmer Module. Currently expecting to get it in the Spring 2026. Despite the problems I am currently having with some of the modules, I am still very glad I purchased my Yarbo. I truly believe, once the kinks are worked out, it will be a real time saver and an indispensable yard tool.

My Yarbo has been mowing my three lawns perfectly since June. In retrospect, setting it up was easy. Any errors that occurred were due to my misinterpretation of the operating instructions. However, the so-called problems were solved on the second or third attempt. Creating the working areas was easy. I also mow at a relatively large distance from the house. There are areas there that are partially covered. That's why I use the larger antennas. There were reception problems with the smaller ones. After installing the larger antennas, everything works perfectly. Sometimes the remote control “freezes” when I'm on the go and want to start Yarbo from my mobile phone. But even that usually works on the second attempt. The app is constantly being improved, which I think is good. The ability to mow the lawn in different patterns is also great. All in all, Yarbo makes lawn care easier. So far, I'm very satisfied.

Yarbo is on the cutting edge of year round autonomous yard care. The robots feature interchangeable modules which currently feature snow blowing, mowing, and leaf blowing. A trimmer (weed whacker) module is coming next. Yarbo significantly cuts down on the manual labor required to maintain a large property. The software stack is currently still in a state of refinement which can be frustrating at times, but nothing is ever perfect. I have already seen significant improvement on the software side, and expect that trend to continue. If you are someone who loves being on the cutting edge in tech products, and doesn't mind putting in the work to set the system up properly, Yarbo is probably for you. I highly recommend.

I feel like my experience with Yarbo as a company has been great. I had a couple issues with a shipment of a battery charging cord, but that was resolved withing a a week or so. They were excellent with the Mower Pro launch in my opinion, since I was on the live release and purchased as soon as it was available. I had an issue with my core unit and they sent me a refurbished replacement for free which is awesome. As for the unit it self, I've had decent experience with it. It's kept it's signal even with placing it in challenging locations and I haven't had it get stuck in the year I've owned it.

I have been using Yarbo’s snowblower and lawn mower modules - basically, two expensive robots that sometimes act like moody teenagers. When they work, it’s amazing watching the mower glide across the lawn or the snowblower chew through snow feels like living in the future. But when they don’t… let’s just say I have had more “manual override” moments than I expected. The hardware looks premium, but the brains (software) still need to catch up. It’s like buying a Tesla that occasionally forgets the driveway. Yarbo’s team is improving things frequent updates, quick responses delays if you have new issues, and real engagement with users - but the product still feels early-stage. I’m rooting for them because the idea that I was chasing back from 2015. Just know you’ll need patience and a bit of humor while it learns to adult. Got a square driveway and a treeless lawn? You’ll love it. But if you want perfection out of the box… maybe wait for version 3.0

Yarbo uses solid materials to build the machine. I use it solely for lawn mowing only for 0.2 acre yards. After less than ten times of mowing the core machine quits. Yarbo replaced with a one someone returned with front damages but it works. The performance for this machine improves in softwares. Compare with other brand Yarbo has advance features but not matured, it is improving and hope it keeps up.

We were eyeing the Yarbo for months and finally decided to buy one. BEST DECISION EVER!!! We have over 6 acres and it was quite time consuming to maintain. Now we go away for the day and return to our Yarbo (named King James) hard at work. We have been thrilled with the mower and the customer service is top notch! Thank you, Yarbo, for giving us the gift of time and making life easier!
