Lymow

The Lymow OnePlus robot lawn mower, first showcased at CES 2026, is now available for preorder at $2,499 to $2,699, depending on the battery capacity you choose. While I wasn't able to see it in action at CES 2026, I did see its predecessor, the Lymow One, at CES 2025. The new model has a lot of the technology developments seen in newer robot lawn mowers, including completely autonomous mowing and wire-free navigation using an array of sensors. 

Lymow founder and CEO Wangshu Gao says the Lymow One Plus has been completely re-engineered to improve performance, durability and intelligence.

Mulching and blowing

The Lymow One Plus can shred and mulch leaves, grass and other debris. It also comes equipped with a blower.

The Lymow One Plus reprises the mulching system from the Lymow One we saw at CES 2025. The 2.0 version for this year includes a cyclone airflow air-movement system that can stretch the grass blades before cutting, which the company says gives it a cleaner, more consistent result. The system also prevents clogging, reduces buildup, and keeps stray clippings off driveaways and pathways, in theory letting the mower function as both a mower and a blower. 

The mulching blades are reinforced with professional-grade SK5 tool steel and come with stronger motors and a redesigned cutting deck to shred grass, leaves and other debris. The mower itself features a reinforced, automotive-grade chassis, improved sealing, self-cleaning side brushes, improved traction, anti-glare display shielding and heated camera housings.
The Lymow One uses tracked treads, unlike the four-wheel drive and active suspension we've seen on other robot lawnmowers. Lymow says the treads offer better traction, stability and slope handling across uneven lawns, wet grass and more complex terrain. 

Lawns of multiple sizes

The Lymow One Plus has one model, but comes in two different battery sizes to handle different lawn sizes.

Navigation is wire-free with RTK-VSLAM and a LySee vision system. The RTK-VSLAM works with a stereo camera, enabling the robot lawn mower to perform more path planning, obstacle avoidance and boundary-free navigation. It can identify and avoid common yard obstacles, such as trees, paths and stone sand fences. 

Lymow says that the Lymow One Plus should work equally well on small, medium and large lawns, with the company offering two different battery sizes at 5 and 10 amp hours.

Price and availability

Preorders for the Lymow OnePlus are open until March 9, including $500 off both the smaller 5Ah and the larger 10Ah models. The 5Ah model will cost $2,499, down from its regular price of $2,999, while the 10Ah model will run you $2,699, down from its regular price of $3,199.Â
