The entry point into Husqvarna's wire-free EPOS system — and the worst price per rated acre of any machine in this comparison.
Everything good about the iQ series is here: EPOS satellite positioning with no boundary wire to bury, a systematic cutting pattern, onboard radar for obstacles, and the same 1.0"–4.0" cutting range that makes the 420 and 440 grass-agnostic. That height range is genuinely the widest useful one in this comparison — it reaches close-cut bermuda at the bottom and the top of St. Augustine's band at the ceiling, so grass type never excludes it. What you should weigh carefully is the arithmetic. Husqvarna rates it for half an acre at roughly $2,900. The Segway Navimow X430 covers 0.74 acres for about $2,500, with a wider height range and nearly double the slope rating; the i110N covers a quarter acre for around $1,100. On dollars per rated acre this is the most expensive machine on the page by a wide margin, and the 45% slope ceiling with a 15% boundary limit is the same modest terrain capability as the larger 420. Buy it because you want Husqvarna's dealer-supported EPOS ecosystem on a small lawn, not because the specification sheet argues for it.

our editor rating
3.6 out of 5
Matched against each state's actual disease, weed and pest pressure.
⚖️ The 4-inch ceiling is the figure that matters here — it reaches the top of UF/IFAS's 2.5"–4" St. Augustine band, which most robotic mowers do not. The half-acre rating is the constraint instead.
⚖️ The 1-inch minimum suits close-cut bermuda, but at half an acre rated this is a small-lot machine — check your lawn against the area before the grass.

Lawn Care Guides
UF/IFAS Extension names the lawns robotic mowers suit and the ones they don't. Irrigation heads, lightning, fire ants and theft are on the official list.

Lawn Care Guides
Daily micro-clipping is a different practice from a weekly cut. Extension research documents denser turf and less weed cover — plus one weed that gets worse.

Grass Types
Most robots are built for grass mowed below 2.5 inches. St. Augustine wants 2.5–4. UF/IFAS tested 2.4 inches anyway — here is what happened.

Your deck setting is not your lawn mowing height — measure it once and most people find they cut lower than they think. The real number by species.
