Pros and cons
B&Q
Pros
- Returns are accepted for 90 days, against a median of 30 across the brands tracked here.
- Sofas start at £129.95, well under the median queen price of €1,001.89 tracked on the site.
- Delivery takes 1 to 5 weeks, and the same window beats the median of 0 across the site.
Cons
- Delivery is not free, and free delivery starts at a basket of £100 to £500.
- Assembly is not included, though an assembly service is sold separately.
- Warranty cover runs 3 years, shorter than the site median of 5.
Mammotion
Pros
- Maximum area of 12,000 m² places Mammotion 2 of 14 brands tracked, well past the group median of 3,500.
- Navigation is listed as rtk gps, vision and lidar, so the mower builds its own map rather than following an installed boundary wire.
- Slopes of 80% are covered, which suits gardens with banks, ridges and uneven transitions.
Cons
- Robot mowers are the whole range (robot mower), so anyone who also wants a ride-on or a handheld machine ends up buying from Exmark or Fuxtec for that.
- Operating noise of 70 dB is the figure to weigh before parking the mower against a neighbour's fence.
- Buying is listed for AU, AT and CA, so readers in other countries should approach Exmark or Fuxtec first.
Who each suits
B&Q
Who it suits
- Readers who want furniture, kitchen, lighting, decor and garden in one basket
- UK buyers who shop on 90 days of returns and price match rather than on a trial
- Shoppers who want a local store for click and collect
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers after a sleep trial, since there is no in home trial
- Furniture specialists such as Pottery Barn, whose store categories include bedding
- Home office buyers who only want seating, where buerostuhl24 Bürostühle und Büromöbel is narrower to that need
Mammotion
Who it suits
- Owners of large gardens, up to the recorded 12,000 m² of lawn, who want a specialist robot mower brand rather than a general machinery range.
- Gardens with banks, ridges or sloping ground, since the listed limit is 80%.
- Buyers who want to reach a person as well as a form, since channels include chat, phone and email.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after a ride-on or handheld machine: Exmark lists lawn mower, ride on mower and robot mower, so robot mowers sit inside a wider lawn range there.
- Readers who want a chain saw, pressure washer or garden tools alongside a mower: Fuxtec covers robot mower, lawn mower and ride on mower.
- Buyers outside AU, AT and CA, who should check Toolineo and its robot mower, lawn mower and trimmer range or a local dealer.

Questions about each
B&Q
How long do I have to return a sofa or a rug?+
B&Q accepts returns for 90 days, which is generous next to the site median of 30. That window applies across the ranges it sells, so a large piece can be sent back within the same limit as a smaller item. Returns are the main route for judging a sofa, since there is no in home trial.
What does delivery cost and how long does it take?+
Delivery takes 1 to 5 weeks. Free delivery is not standard here, but it kicks in once your basket reaches £100 to £500. The fastest end of that window lines up with the site median of 0, so collecting in person is the quicker route when a deadline is tight.
Mammotion
How large a lawn can a Mammotion robot mower cover?+
The listed maximum area is 12,000 m², and on that measure Mammotion places 2 of 14 brands tracked. The middle of the group sits at 3,500, so this is among the larger claims on the market. Measure your own plot before you commit, since a maximum is the top of the range rather than a typical lawn.
Does it need a boundary wire laid out first?+
A boundary wire is not part of the listed setup. Navigation is listed as rtk gps, vision and lidar, meaning the mower builds its own map from satellite positioning, cameras and lidar instead of following an installed edge. That removes a setup job on an awkward lawn, though it does leave the mower dependent on open sky and a clear view of the grass to hold its bearings.
