Kress RTKⁿ OAS — 1,500 m²
Ref. KR171E
For gardens up to 1500 m², the Kress RTKⁿ KR171E carries the OAS (Obstacle Avoidance System) to detect and steer around fixed obstacles before contact. Weight 12 kg, 20 cm cutting width, adjustable height 30-60 mm, 40% max slope.
Positioning needs no buried wire: an RTK antenna receives real-time satellite correction, letting the mowing boundary be treated as purely virtual within the app. OAS complements this by spotting fixed obstacles on approach, for a smoother path than a simple contact bumper — useful at this size, where the number of obstacles to navigate around naturally increases. Off-limits zones still need to be marked manually on the map before the first mow.
Battery: 20V, roughly 3-hour recharge. A robotic lawn mower for medium-to-large gardens that skips the camera cost of the EyePilot line while keeping active obstacle detection.
Built for large surfaces — mows up to 1500 m² with ease.
Robust model at 12.2 kg — consider having help for installation.
Near-silent at 55.5 dB — can run at any hour without disturbing neighbours.
Volume relatif, indicatif — dépend de votre casque/enceintes.
Tackles steep terrain up to 40% — beyond standard robot capability.
Standard width (200 mm) — a good fit for most gardens.
Good adjustment range (30–60 mm) — works for most lawn types.
Excellent battery life (72 Wh) — charges in 180 min.
🌍 Environmental Impact
Good news: 10.6 kg CO₂ — among the most frugal robots in its category (robots for 1,001–1,600 m²).
