ROAD TO HUSKVARNA – SWEDEN 🇸🇪🇬🇧

Jack and Holly were brought over to the UK and Sweden for a Husqvarna Dealer Experience, alongside the top 50 dealers across Australia and New Zealand (with only 11 dealers from New Zealand)

An absolutely wicked experience from start to finish! From touring the Automower factory in Manchester, checking out the Husqvarna British Masters and experiencing Liverpool, to heading across to Sweden to visit a local dealership, tour Husqvarna’s headquarters in Huskvarna and explore the Husqvarna Museum. 🇸🇪

The places, the activities and the experience was wicked! Was cool to meet a lot of great dealers that made some pretty awesome memories over the whole trip.

Seeing the ideas, innovation and the passion that goes into continually building the Husqvarna brand has been wicked. I’m bringing plenty of new knowledge and ideas home with me, and it’s made me even more excited for what’s ahead for the future of robotic mowing!

A massive thank you to Husqvarna for the opportunity and for an experience we won’t forget. 🧡

🏆 THIS ONE MEANS A LOT TO US. + BIG NEWS COMING SOON 🧡

We’re incredibly proud to be recognised by Husqvarna, but this recognition belongs just as much to our customers as it does to us.

Your support from right across Taranaki has helped us grow into our new building, grow our Automower business, receive some amazing recognition and opportunities from Husqvarna, and continue investing back into what we do.

Our goal has always been simple, look after every customer, no matter how big or small, and make sure they leave happy.

So from our whole team, thank you Taranaki. We genuinely wouldn’t be where we are today without you. 🧡

And we’re not finished yet… 👀

Some pretty exciting news is coming soon! Another big step forward in our commitment to Taranaki.

🤖 FREE 2-WEEK AUTOMOWER DEMOS NOW AVAILABLE TARANAKI WIDE!

Thinking about a robot lawnmower but want to see if it’s right for you?

We’ve just expanded our demo fleet with 4 new mowers to keep up with demand, meaning we can get more demo mowers out to properties across Taranaki.

This isn’t just a quick demonstration. We leave the mower at your home for 2 weeks, so you can experience exactly how it works on your own lawn. Watch it keep your grass looking immaculate day after day while you get your time back.

The feedback we hear from customers is always the same… “I could never go back to mowing the lawn myself.” Once you’ve experienced the convenience and seen the finish these machines produce, it’s easy to understand why.

Whether your lawn is big or small, wired or wire-free, we’ll recommend the right mower and let you experience it before making a decision.

📧 Email us today to book your FREE 2-week Automower demo. Spots fill quickly, so get in touch and see for yourself why robot lawnmowers are changing the way people care for their lawns.

It’s pretty incredible how quickly these robot mowers have taken off around Taranaki.

These photos are just a handful of the installs we’ve completed recently, and the feedback from customers has been unreal. Once people have one, they genuinely wonder why they didn’t do it sooner.

For around the price of a ride-on mower, you can have a mower that goes out and cuts your lawn for you, keeps it looking tidy every day, and costs far less to service over its lifetime. Instead of spending your weekends mowing, you get your time back.

Whether you’ve got a small suburban section, a lifestyle block or a large rural property, there’s a Husqvarna Automower to suit. These things continue to surprise us with what they’re capable of.

If you’ve been wondering whether one would work on your property, come and see for yourself. We’ve got demo machines available, but they’re booking out quickly and moving around Taranaki every week.

Get in touch if you’d like to give one a try on your own lawn.

🌱 The results speak for themselves! 🌱

Just one month ago we installed a robotic mower on this unique property setup, covering TWO separate properties and managing an impressive 9 individual work areas, all with a single mower.

Swipe through the photos to see the difference between installation day and our 1-month check-up.

✅ Healthier, greener lawn
✅ More consistent cut quality
✅ No scalping or missed patches
✅ Less stress on the grass
✅ More time for the owner to enjoy their property

Unlike traditional mowing, robotic mowers trim little and often, helping create a thicker, healthier lawn while keeping it looking immaculate every day of the week.

This customer is already seeing the benefits after just one month, and the lawn will continue to improve as the mower works its magic.

Thinking about making mowing a thing of the past? We specialise in robotic mower sales, installation, servicing, and support right across Taranaki.

Her old mower is still running strong after a decade of hard work, but with extra lawn areas added over the years, it was time to step up to the latest wire-free technology 👌

✔ No boundary wire

These robot mowers are taking off across Taranaki, and once people see them in action, there’s no going back 👀
