Ecovacs

Ecovacs GOAT O1000 LiDAR PRO

7.2/10 research score

Dual LiDAR plus the TruEdge trimmer, 45% slopes, $1,499.99.

Mammotion

Mammotion YUKA mini 2 1000H

7.0/10 research score

360° LiDAR and two cameras for 0.25 acre, 45% slopes, $1,559.

The short answer

Choose the Ecovacs GOAT O1000 LiDAR PRO if your lawn has lots of edges, beds and narrow paths: its trimmer and 31.5-inch path rating suit busy small yards. Choose the Mammotion YUKA mini 2 for complete published specs, a 3-year warranty and a lighter, quieter mower, accepting more hand trimming.

"Ecovacs GOAT vs YUKA mini" comes up again and again in Google's search suggestions, and for good reason: both use LiDAR instead of satellite RTK, both are rated for 45% slopes and both cost around $1,500. The difference is in the details. We compared published specs and reviews; see how we research.

Edges decide it for many yards

The GOAT's TruEdge trimmer is its big advantage: reviewers of the bigger A3000 found it reduced edging to a few missed spots. The YUKA mini 2 has no trimmer, and a reviewer said its small disc sits far from the edge, leaving strips along fences and corners.

Specs and support

Mammotion publishes everything we look for: lawn size, runtime, charging time, weight (24 lb), noise (57 dB) and a 3-year warranty. Ecovacs' US page for the O1000 LiDAR PRO lists none of lawn size, runtime or weight, and its warranty appears only in Ecovacs' blog (2 years). If you value knowing exactly what you buy, the YUKA mini 2 is easier to judge.
