Hello all! I live in upstate New York, and love the idea of an automower. I have approximately .8 acre. For the past two years I have mowed with a 30 inch Ryobi walk behind. Time is getting the better of me, and I admit I don’t really enjoy mowing my lawn in the middle of summer.

I like the idea of not having an RTK tower to futz with. So far, my research has led me to the Worx Landroid WR340 and the Ecovacs GOAT A3000 LiDAR Pro. The Ecovacs might be slightly undersized from my space based on what I have been reading (.75 acre). The Worx is specced to mow up to an acre, so imo that may be a bit more sufficient.

My lawn is flat and open. I have two or three trees to mow around.

Anything I might be missing?

I cannot recall coming across any reviews or comments about any of the Jura house brand coffee on here. Has anybody tried any of the blends? They aren’t objectionably priced at $19 per lb with free (at least to me) shipping. I can spend that at my local Target.

Hello Reddit community:

Longtime lurker, so I figured I would make an account and post my thoughts. Long story short, I am looking at purchasing a fully automatic espresso machine. Something like the De'Longhi Magnifica Start or Evo.

Little bit of background, my wife and I currently have a Nespresso (also made by De'Longhi) and are very satisfied with the convenience. We have had one for quite some time, and it functions quite well with our busy and hectic lifestyles. It is great to simply push a button and get a (for my wife) latte or cappuccino or espresso for myself.

I am fully aware that these Nespresso units will not produce espresso or espresso based drinks as good as a skilled barista. I would also have to be an idiot to assume it would.

Is a fully automated espresso machine e really *that* much of an improvement? I completely understand the benefit of investing the time and energy to learn the ‘art of espresso’ and doing it myself from scratch. However, my wife and I do have busy lives and there IS something that is to be said of the convenience aspect.
