Best for this need

Zone count matters alongside safe connecting routes

Our pick

MOVA LiDAX Ultra 2000

MOVA LiDAX Ultra 2000

MOVA LiDAX Ultra 2000 and Dreame A3 AWD 2000 each list up to 150 managed zones and two maps. LUBA 3 AWD 3000H now lists up to 100 zones and adds a 2.2-4-inch high-cut range on a three-quarter-acre platform. A zone ceiling does not enlarge the supported area or prove that disconnected sections have a safe connecting route.

Why it fits this need

  • Published zone limit
  • Separate-map support
Main trade-off
Two-wheel drive is a weaker match for severe banks than an AWD mower.
Choose Dreame A3 AWD 2000 instead when
You need all-wheel drive and a current 150-zone system on a half-acre lawn.
More reasons behind this pick
  • Connecting routes
  • Total grass area

Published zone limits, separate maps and safe routes for divided lawns.
