Robomow have announced a new partnership with electroics chain Maplin for its robotic lawnmowers.

Selected models are now available at 39 stores across the UK and the full range of six models, with accessories, through the Maplin online store.



Robomow say they enjoyed their best ever UK sales in 2014 - increasing by 136% during the peak period from March, compared to 2013. They believe this steady increase in sales will continue in 2015 with UK results climbing to match those of mainland Europe, where robotic lawnmowers are one of the fastest growing categories of garden product.

Oliver Meakin, MD of Maplin Direct said, "Robomow is a perfect brand fit for Maplin. Robotic lawnmowers offer an innovative technology solution for the new smart home and we believe that the models will be quickly adopted by UK homeowners this year."

John Hall, Managing Director of Mower Magic, the UK distributor for Robomow said, "The popularity of robotic lawnmowers in the UK has been steadily on the rise, particularly over the last five years. In that time technology has improved performance, new innovations introduced and barriers to sale diminished."
