Maria Diaz/ZDNETIn the end, I can't really tell you how good a robot mower the Yarbo is when it runs autonomously, though I hope to continue troubleshooting the issues I've experienced with it thus far. That being said, the Yarbo Core is a promising device as a yard assistant, especially due to its compact size, towing capacity, and ability to steer it wherever you want it to go.
