World's FIRST Reel Mowing Robot!! Insane Results!

Want a golf course looking lawn? The Oasa R1 is a game changer. It uses a cylinder / reel mower blade as opposed to a rotary style / razor blades giving it the best mow money can buy.
Oasa R1 available on kickstarter! Official launch is June 25th 9am PST
Kickstarter: tinyurl.com/36zps2wm
Official Website: oasalife.com/
***Disclaimer - this was a paid sponsored video
The Oasa R1 is a lidar based ai robot mower that will mow your lawn automatically, return itself back to the charging station when it runs low on battery or completes it route. Comes complete with an app that allows you to adjust:
- height of cut that ranges from .8" on up to 4" height of cut
- schedule your mows automatically
- multiple mow patterns and mow routes to choose from
What sets the R1 apart is its mow blade. most people are familiar with cylinder mowing / reel mowing. It's the type of lawn mower blade that golf courses use. The advantage to reel mowing is the cut quality. It cuts grass off of a bedknife and reel. In simpler terms, its like cutting the grass with super sharp scissors. This limits the blade scarring on the grass and increases overall health and color of the lawn.
Maintenance with traditional reel mowers can be a pain. To fix this the R1 robotic reel mower includes ai functionality to monitor the blade to limit wear and tear. It does this by using a microphone that is placed near the reel. It automatically adjusts the reel in the moment to make sure its always calibrated. This means the reel will last upwards of 3 years before needing any sharpening / grinding of the reel. The app has a backlapping feature included for maintenance sharpening.

Correction: If it's 'paid' it's not a review, but rather a commercial.

[@pestandlawnginja]

Yah?

[@blaskotron]

Commercials don't discuss negatives of the product. But this does.

[@wischmopps293]

​@@blaskotronthey do. You invent some minor disadvantages to act as if it's neutral. Like in job interviews: "my biggest weakness? I work too much and I forget putting in overhours into the system. Also my work performance during my vacations is little lower"

[@hamptonchivasa]

its still a review.

[@Sickoloko24]

@@pestandlawnginjayou are a joke my guy you have no integrity and can’t be trusted this is a comercial, any serious creator wouldn’t call this a a review I stoped watching at 15 seconds.

Finally a Reel mower option! Thanks for posting Lawn Ginja, keep slaying the lawn!

[@pestandlawnginja]

You bet!

[@Handlinmybusiness]

wow, these robot mowers are getting fancy! it listens to the sound the blade makes when cutting the grass and adjusts based on that. insane!

Wow this thing looks awesome. Would love to see some double wide patterns and a mini roller for some sweet stripes.

[@pestandlawnginja]

totally agree, that was a suggestion of mine to the company is to run a separate striping program

[@thesugarlipslove]

thats a pretty cool concept

[@pestandlawnginja]

Agree!

[@Theo_1984]

That’s one robotic mower I wouldn’t mind owning. Great video review! Still prefer cutting the grass myself (with an old TruCut - would like to upgrade to a drum style next) but it would be a game changer for vacations.

[@pestandlawnginja]

Right on! I need to get a trucut to experience it

[@rubenharris9241]

Looks promising for sure! At some point, it would be great if you could do a video that scores certain key features so that we can determine which is best for a particular application.

[@pestandlawnginja]

100% , It's on the to do list!

[@VidJunkie63]

I am happy to see a video on this new product that is not the glowing marketing material. I pinged Oasa several questions on the Kickstarter page, but I'll share them here if you have any thoughts and can share comments. I live in Florida. It is HOT here. We have Saint Augustine grass, which is much thicker and broader than the grass you have in the video. Can the R1 handle high temperatures and "tropical" sun? Can the R1 handle thick St. Augustine grass? St. Augustine grass grows up, meaning that where it may have been installed nearly flush with sidewalks or driveways, as it matures over the years, it will have a root bed above the concrete creating a "step", can the R1 accommodate that and not get "stuck"? Without a GPS, how does the R1 auto-map the perimeter with no fences to delineate the separation between properties? Lastly, what kind of end-user maintenance program is needed, and cost of parts, such as the reel, wheels, and tires?

[@pestandlawnginja]

Cutting st Augustine will be fine. This is a very high quality reel. As for maintenance and the long term. The question is how to grind the reel every e years and how that will be resolved. I don't have an answer for that. In regards to the borders the lidar computer it all by separating shapes and patterns and colors. No real issues there. Lidars been used in homes for many years. Not a new technology. You can indeed program neighboring property lines by using the manual controls.

[@mikedelta987]

Oh man so tempting but I also want a roller option

[@pestandlawnginja]

Totally get it!

[@johnlysic6727]

Very interesting - I will keep an eye on this one - I definitely prefer the reel mowing - my problem is debris from the trees in my yard , pretty sure the reel will get stuck

[@pestandlawnginja]

that is a concern for sure!

[@lvond555]

Pretty cool! Just wish you could get the stripes you get with a traditional walk behind reel mower.

[@pestandlawnginja]

agree

[@HurleyDeanSandpoint]

I really like this mower. Wish I could simply order on off of Amazon Prime.

[@pestandlawnginja]

it's been a fun experience

[@enzomoya1689]

Ginja, put some googley eyes on that thang!!! 😂😂😂 seriously tho, that's pretty bad ass!!!

[@pestandlawnginja]

🤣🤣🤣 good call

[@ryanchristensen6655]

This looks amazing. What do you think about using the Yuka Sweeper to pickup ticks and debri then using The Oasa R1 to mow after that?

[@pestandlawnginja]

That'd be pretty sweet

[@sdrob671]

Just wondering how well it handles the overlap cutting on the edges of your lawn, hover mode? Obviously the driveway and sidewalks are no problem but I have a strip that runs along a curb at the street.

[@Baskk17]

great video ! how would you compare it to the airseekers tron? which one do you prefer ?

[@pestandlawnginja]

To be upfront airseekers never sent me a machine so my usage was very limited

[@loukhryst.7366]

Great review. Could I manually use this device and control the cutting remotely the entire time as if it could turn into an RC mower?

[@pestandlawnginja]

As of now that is not an option. Not sure what the future holds

[@barneymiller4088]

I think you need to talk about the smoothness of the yard. I am in a rental and the yard is bumpy. I would like to understand the results when the yard has bumps.

[@pestandlawnginja]

I'll be doing another video showing different yards including bumpy ones

[@elkskiutah8204]

how do you feel about a mulching mower for lawn quality. and like you said you would still need an additional mower for the spring and fall scalps and if it gets to long. a

[@pestandlawnginja]

proper mulching is the best thing for a lawn.

[@Munkemanden]

I am at the edge of buying the kickstarter on this one... But I am very unsure how it handles branches and so on from trees? Obviusly I try to keep the grass free, but with 2 huge trees there is always small branches after the sligtest wind... 🤔 And what about them leaves?

[@pestandlawnginja]

it won't do well with branches. leaves wouldn't be a big deal

[@LawnmowinJunkie]

That is soooooooo cool.

[@pestandlawnginja]

right!?

[@MRrwmac]

You did a fantastic job demonstrating and explaining this new mower! However, my concern would be that even though you told us about it’s anti theft capabilities, they could stil be stolen and there goes my money!

[@jaxturner7288]

That’s one way to say you live in a bad neighborhood. 😂. You are stuck hiding a push mower in a locked shed until you can afford to move to a better zip code.👍

[@pestandlawnginja]

most antitheft has geo location built in similar to a cell phone / find my phone. its also bound to the software so the thief cannot use it. this was a primary concern when cell phones came out. now that they have the anti theft dialed in most people don't steal cell phones.

[@tinpony9424]

Heya, Ginja! I'm a bit unclear about how it finds edges if there isn't a fence or some "object" above cut level. Will it initially try mowing over your driveway, and have to be set for exclusion zones? Or, to include areas that are a different color, from bare spots...? Well don vid, explained a lot. Gonna watch how this mower progresses!

[@pestandlawnginja]

great question! The best way i can describe it is the machines color coordinate the grass to identify it. so it sees and identifies boundaries. In the past I've tried to program all the mowers to mow past the driveway and they won't do it due to the obstacle recognition. they always stop short because they receive an alert its not grass and stays in the boundary. Other than that, during the setup process you're telling them where the boundaries are, so everything outside that zone is essentially set as a no go zone. As far as bare spots goes...... it does mess with a lot of mowers.

[@Bob_Adkins]

It appears to work just like robot vacuums, which are very accurate and reliable at avoiding obstacles and no-go zones.

[@Onhereforfun85nodrama]

I have about a 2 acre lawn I was wondering if I could use it just around my house yard. I don’t have any physical boundaries from the rest of the yard

[@pestandlawnginja]

you can set the boundaries. the map limitation is 16,000 sq ft. but you can program within that boundary.

[@user-db5nn1jf5v]

Wow, I can't wait to see a weed whacker (and maybe even a blower too) integrated into an auto-mower in the future. That way, I can really enjoy a mowing-free lawn.

[@pestandlawnginja]

Same!

[@christophbreitkopf]

Thank you for the video. Which mower would you recommend - OASA R1 or TERRAMOW?

[@mkaiserme]

Great question!

[@remvuremv3765]

Indeed would love to know

[@pestandlawnginja]

reely just depends on your lawn goals really. this is for lawn fanatics that want a clean clean cut and can afford time to make sure debris is off the lawn. they're both fantstic for what they are.

[@mikekappasig]

So can you manually create a boundary where there's no fence or concrete? I need to set a boundary where my grass meets the neighbor on both sides of my front lawn, which I can't imagine auto map can figure out. I can tell it where my grass ends, right?

[@pestandlawnginja]

yes!!!! you can take the controls and manually create a boundary and no go zones.

[@mikekappasig]

@@pestandlawnginja awesome. Thanks!

[@barneymiller4088]

The 6000ft2 is a problem. My yard would require 2 or 3 of these. How would they work together?

[@pestandlawnginja]

I'm not entirely sure how it would be integrated just yet. Great question

[@jeffkitchen3217]

I have a separate front yard and backyard. Can this unit charge up in the backyard, cut the backyard, go down a 30ft driveway, then pull up onto my front lawn and cut it? Does it stop the blades while traveling over a driveway surface?

[@pestandlawnginja]

Creating a pathway is the technical term. Blade does indeed hault and it follows the programmed pathway to the other zone. Works great

[@obilawnkenobi7230]

Do any of these robot mowers have any integration with other apps? Could you schedule mows around when the irrigation system ran?

[@pestandlawnginja]

it will be integrated into an alexa or amazon type. i'm just not sure which as of now.

[@originaltasan]

I have a couple of small cliffs and also some edging stones that drop down a few inches where the lawn is on the high side and pavement is on the low side. Is it smart enough to not fall down? If not, I have a lot of landscaping to do 😂

[@pestandlawnginja]

its smart enough to detect where the grass is. my suggestion would be to program it about 7" away from those areas so it doesn't get stuck. or you'd need to bring in dirt and level it out.

[@Crazypostman]

Looks super awesome! This one's not for me though My lawn is not near nice enough to have a reel mower 😂

[@pestandlawnginja]

Oh no! Lets fix that!

[@leeblack3216]

How does the hover mode work with ground level is taller than the side walk or driveway?

[@pestandlawnginja]

Depends on the height. The highest section I have is an inch and it performs well. Little bit of scalping considering the height difference but the mower doesn't get stuck

[@Forbes123]

Is the reel replaceable by users? Backlapping isn't a permanent solution, so how do users get the reel re-ground? If this mower uses backlapping, is it correct to assume that this reel comes from the factory with a relief grind? Many reel mowers do not come with a relief grind and therefore should not be backlapped.

[@pestandlawnginja]

that is a great question and is yet to be determined by the company. I agree that backlapping isn't a permanent solution. the machine i received was ground from the factory. truth be told i'm not a fan of backlapping. but i understand it has it's place. all great questions.

[@richardjohnson8009]

What would be nice to add is a mini string trimmer that does the edge.

[@pestandlawnginja]

That would be cool

[@cmikecs]

Think it'll be a successful product? Any chatter from other brands offering a similar type of robotic reel mower?

[@pestandlawnginja]

no chatter yet on others creating a reel mower. but yes, this company's owner was one of the originals from narwal and the other chief of staff is from dji and the same company that invested in narwal originally is invested in oasa. pretty cool if you ask me.

[@chisel83]

so is there a gps tracker on that mower ie "find my mower"? I know of one in somebodys front yard with a low picket fence that i'm thinking of borrowing...

[@pestandlawnginja]

Haha 😄 yeah there is. Also bound to the software

[@TEverlith]

Try a cross hatch pattern

[@pestandlawnginja]

It's the best

[@toddh6234]

Wish they would make these mowers wider like 22" - 36".

[@pestandlawnginja]

That would be pretty great

[@FirstSergeant]

What happens if you don’t have fixed yard borders like fences on perimeter when setting it up?...is there a manual option to set it up?

[@pestandlawnginja]

You can manually program whatever border you want by simply tapping on the A button and manually controlling the bot

[@mibli2935]

What is the acreage that it covers? I can't find the info on it. Thanks!

[@pestandlawnginja]

its in the video. it only allows to program a space of .37 acres or smaller

[@chaseapple85]

I'll be interested when they can cut down to 0.5" or 12mm and last 3-4 hours

[@imbonnie-hl3xk]

lower!

[@pestandlawnginja]

be pretty cool when it happens

[@smalltownpicker]

It would be nice in all of your mower reviews to actually see it cut. Your grass always looks fresh mowed

[@genephipps6421]

These mowers are designed to cut daily so the yard is essentially always "fresh mowed".

[@pestandlawnginja]

Thanks for the feedback. These type of mowers are not Bushwhackers. They're meant to take a tiny bit off the top hence the fresh mow look. I program them to mow daily

[@heydeereman1040]

Have the Segway to mow the bulk of the yard. If they could get these to mow at 0.100, then I would get one to mow the golf green and tee box.

[@pestandlawnginja]

yah, they'd need to upgrade to a 12 reel or greater to do that. maybe in the future we'd see some options like that. be pretty cool

[@imbonnie-hl3xk]

i want a lower cut…like as low as a putting green.

[@pestandlawnginja]

lower would be cool, they'd need a 7 reel in my opinion to go any lower. so maybe in the future they'd do it. be pretty cool to swap the reels out whenever

[@Hybridog]

I wonder if it could cut my Emerald Zoysia? it's kind of a tough grass.

[@pestandlawnginja]

So far I've cut blue and rye. It'll cut zoysia fine in my opinion. The machine is about 45lbs

[@MidnightRunISF]

How does it handle crossing driveways to mow another side of the yard? I’ve always wondered how these robot mowers handle vanity strips too. No one ever shows them crossing a sidewalk and mowing narrow vanity stripes next to the road.

[@pestandlawnginja]

Great question. crossing driveways is not an issue. When your mapping you'll create a pathway. these pathways need to be 3ft or more on average. I have one pathway with one of the machines i'm using that is almost 60ft long. Love the feedback. I am currently growing a section of grass across my driveway so i'll be able to show the process as you're requesting.

[@MidnightRunISF]

@@pestandlawnginja I’m loving the robot review series you’ve been doing. At some point, it’d be really great to see you rate all the best robot mowers and give some recommendations. Maybe score important aspects like cut quality, mapping and navigation, battery life, overall quality, warranty, etc. Then give a few recommendations based on category? I’m really intrigued by robot mowers. I only have a 2000 sq foot front lawn now that I’ve built a pool in the backyard, but with two babies, I’d love to minimize yard maintenance but still have a really nice lawn. Currently cutting hybrid bermuda with a driveway and sidewalks to navigate, tree rings, and narrow side yard.

[@pestandlawnginja]

great feedback!

[@thegardenerstouchinc9970]

Did you try to hang the edge over the top of the curb? Or is that too tight of a tolerance? I'm bummed about no night cutting, I must admit. For my .02 they should make it cut lower and forget the 2"and higher. Reel cut people are accustomed to paying more for this type of cut. You can't be all things to all people. I'm anxious for the release to the masses.

[@pestandlawnginja]

with every update it gets soo close. this last update is was 2" to 4" off the curb and on the edge cutting it was hovering my concrete border and getting it all.

[@DrZhenya]

What happen with leftover grass?

[@pestandlawnginja]

What do you mean by leftover grass? If you mean the cut clippings they go back into the soil. It's the best for the lawn if the clippings are small enough

[@DrZhenya]

@@pestandlawnginja Thank you! Didn’t know that, I always assumed we need to pick it up. How long does it take to the small clippings to “disappear” into the soil before it will stick to our foot if we walk on the grass?

seems like a high chance of theft. can you elaborate on the defense? will it lock out the next user? seems like you would need a front and backyard for most properties

[@pestandlawnginja]

the anti theft is still being integrated. I would anticipate gps geo fencing, alarm, app notifications when its outside the area. What i would like to see is for them to get into the camera and take pictures and video actively so it can be referenced later. and to answer your question, the apps and emails and mac addresses of the devices are bound. so it would not be usable for anyone else.

[@hans-henrikjensen]

Can it handle twigs, pinecones, apples and such continually dropping onto lawns ?

[@BenjaminT.Minkler]

those would be my exact issues as well....would kinda suck to daily have to go out and pick up after my trees so the lawn could be auto-mowed, as right now I rarely worry about it(and just rotary push mow over that stuff once a week) and only occasionally have to remove larger branches that fall

[@rzett9377]

I was wondering the same thing as I live with ponderosas

[@pestandlawnginja]

no. anything of that nature will effect the sharpness of the reel. the obstacle avoidance isn't that dialed in yet. be pretty cool if it was.

[@BenjaminT.Minkler]

@@pestandlawnginja I almost think there could be a set of 3 of these robots, a mini army if you will, first one is in charge of cleanup with a brush roller(lite ‘power rake’) with a collector that it could dump, and that could clear any small sticks and tree drops/dog ‘drops’ or even kid toys; then the next this awesome reel mower(which far surpasses other rotary razor blade cutters); last a lite roller bot, if needed/wanted …. the complete arsenal of the robot takeover of our lawns - unleashed on their own

[@jocramkrispy305]

I always prefer the cut a reel mower gives, but this is way too big for my garden. The biggest problem I have is that it takes longer to take out my mower and put it away than it does to actually mow. I want to move to daily cutting to mulch,but there's no way I'm doing that myself, so a robot mower seems the way to go. Have you come across any that are suited to tiny lawns - around 25m2? Don't really care what it cuts with could be a strimmer if it gets the job done.

So yes, i believe the kickstarter price is pretty amazing.

[@Danomite99]

@@pestandlawnginja It's not about the guarantee - it's about the fact that I won't need the robot in winter and then only next year.

[@pestandlawnginja]

@@Reudiga I get it.

[@grandtheftaudio3]

What happens when you arent there and the kids next door throw a handful of rocks in your yard?

[@pestandlawnginja]

you are screwed

[@itsparadoxical]

Where is this made? Where are the maps of our yards going to be sent? Where are the images and audio from the mowers being sent?

[@financeroyce474]

China

[@pestandlawnginja]

China. As far as the data goes they're bound to all the same security laws all the others are. Including cell phones

[@nedg3740]

Pure evil wizadry if u ask me!

[@stephenwoody8147]

Stop.

[@pestandlawnginja]

LOL

[@saldainis55]

it seems that that shit wasn't even close to a real village meadow

[@pestandlawnginja]

not sure what to think about that comment

[@dtburrows]

Hope their mower is more reliable then their webpage. Their webpage is down.

[@pestandlawnginja]

LOL

[@richardsmith1161]

Have you seen any washboarding, since it's probably only a 5 blade and doesn't weigh that much.

[@pestandlawnginja]

shockingly it weighs about 45lbs. the lowest i've used the mower is about 1" and so far no washboarding.

Another commercial?

[@pestandlawnginja]

? does telling you what a company is promising in a pre launch product constitute as a commercial. showing you the functionality, going over the pro's and cons? spending 80 hours documenting. if so then yes. it was a great project. Here's my 2c. go out and try filming one of these on your own. each clip that shows it roaming 1000ft2 takes about 1.5 hours. I appreciate a good critique but some of you guys have no clue how much time and effort goes into making a video with robot tech. I think the comment is a bit naive.

[@yellowsnowman9157]

Great product but the price is kinda crazy. Id never risk an item at this cost to freely roam the front lawn and risk any theft Sure theft system may make the product inactive....but you still lost the item to theft

[@pestandlawnginja]

to each there own i guess. i've had no issues in my area. its similar to a cell phone. once enough people realized they could steal a cell phone but couldn't use it the majority of thefts went down dramatically.

[@akenedy]

You want lawn stripes too? OMG 🙄

[@pestandlawnginja]

💯

[@jonahcarlson69]

No one's yard looks like this. Is this staged? I wanna see it used on a real lawn. 😂

[@druv2458]

Try to justify this lol

[@pestandlawnginja]

LOL totally get it !

[@MartenusPrince]

"AI" lol, nothing AI about this, just some advanced programming. Stupid by companies to put the buzzword everywhere, stupid by users who go for it.

[@pestandlawnginja]

so it learning where obstacles are, re mapping intelligently doesn't constitute?
