How we countedThe count uses each product's current fit ratings for “The area I can mow is less than a quarter acre”. A need with no documented match is not counted.
How we calculatedFigures are the lawn area the maker rates it for. Slopes, layout, obstacles and how often it mows can shrink the area it really covers. The median draws on the 47 of 56 models that publish comparable figures.
