Will the Einhell FREELEXO 1200 LCD BT manage a 1,000 m² lawn?

On paper, yes: Einhell rates the Einhell FREELEXO LCD BT for 1,200 m², which leaves some headroom over 1,000 m². Whether it copes comfortably depends on the shape of the lawn and how much wire you'll need.

The cut is only 180 mm wide, which is narrow for a lawn of that size, so expect it to run for many hours a week. Einhell doesn't publish a mowing time per charge, but the supplied Power X-Change battery is 93.6 Wh, the largest in the FREELEXO range. Lawns split into several areas, or with lots of beds and trees, take longer to cover than one open rectangle.

Wire is the other limit. Einhell supplies 210 m of wire and 300 pegs, and the manual allows up to 250 m in total. Measure the full perimeter, including loops around islands such as trees and beds, before buying: a long, narrow 1,000 m² garden can need more wire than a square one. Extra wire and pegs are sold separately.

Check slopes against its 35% rating, and remember it was showing out of stock at Einhell UK when we checked. Our installation guide helps with planning the wire.
