Kress RTKⁿ — 2,000 m²
Ref. KR172E
The Kress RTKⁿ KR172E targets gardens up to 2000 m² without the OAS of its ".A" sibling: weight 12 kg, 20 cm cutting width, adjustable height 30-60 mm, 40% max slope.
Navigation stays wire-free: the onboard RTK antenna receives satellite correction that defines a virtual boundary configured in the app, with no extra fixed antenna to install. On this base model, the mower reacts on contact with an obstacle rather than spotting it visually in advance — a difference to weigh against the equivalent KR172E.A if the garden has plenty of furniture or low beds to navigate around. Zones to exclude entirely are still set up on the app's map upfront.
Battery: 20V, recharging in about 90 minutes — noticeably faster than the KR160-171 generation. An efficient robotic lawn mower for larger, more open gardens, where active obstacle avoidance matters less than on a cluttered plot.
Built for large surfaces — mows up to 2000 m² with ease.
Standard weight of 12 kg — no particular difficulty to install.
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.
