Question
Is it worth replacing a TerraMow S series with the newer V series?
Not if your S series is working well. The TerraMow V Series (V600 / V1000) is the direct replacement for the TerraMow S Series (S800 / S1200), and it's better on paper, but the upgrade is worth it mainly if your old mower is out of warranty, needs an expensive repair, or falls short on something the V series fixes.
What the V series adds, going by TerraMow's pages: an updated camera system it calls TerraVision 2.0, electric cutting height from 25 mm to 75 mm set in the app, 4G built in with a year of data, and a warranty of 3 years on the mower against 2 years for the S series. The V series also had lower UK RRPs than the S series did.
What it doesn't change much is slope ability. TerraMow gave the S1200 a 36% rating, while the V series spec table says 32.5%, so a steep garden isn't a reason to switch. TerraMow no longer publishes most S-series specs, which makes a line-by-line comparison of area, cutting width and noise impossible.
If you do move to the V series, spares for the old mower remain on sale, and the base station and blade disc are listed as fitting both ranges. Every V series variant was sold out on 29 September 2026, so check stock first.
