Overview
Reliable boundary-wire mowing for Up to 0.15 acres coverage
Full Review
The Husqvarna Automower 305 covers up to Up to 0.15 acres using Boundary Wire navigation with traditional boundary wire installation. It handles slopes up to 22% with its 2WD drive system and features a 8.7 in cutting width.
You'll need to install boundary wire around your mowing area before first use — plan for a few hours on smaller yards, or a full day for larger properties. Once installed, the system is reliable and the mower operates autonomously within the defined boundaries.
Key features include Compact, Automower Connect, weather timer. At $800–$1,100, the Automower 305 competes in a crowded boundary-wire market where wire-free alternatives are increasingly compelling.
