Minimo
The Sileno Minimo line consists of 2 models capable of .06 and .12 acres perfect for small, simple lawns. The Minimo line is the simplest model in terms of features, yet packs an intelligent punch making it more than capable of precision mowing.
City
The Sileno City line of robotic mowers are similarly capable in terms of mowable area to the Minimo and boast versions that can handle .06 and .12 acres of lawn. The primary difference between the Minimo and City lines, is the addition of an interface directly on the mower allowing you to adjust some settings outside of the companion app outlined below.
Life
Intelligently designed and versatile, the Sileno Life offers the largest coverage area of .19 acres from the Gardena robotic mower line. It is the younger, but bigger brother to the City line of mowers when looking at features shared amongst the lineup.

Gardena Smart System
With the GARDENA smart App, you control your GARDENA smart system devices anytime, from anywhere. Always keep an overview of where and when watering or mowing takes place.
The app supports you in setting up your robotic lawnmower and helps, with the knowledge of our gardening-experts, to create an ideal schedule for your garden.
Cutting System
Always Sharp
Like many of our similar robotic mowers, and since it is part of the Husqvarna family, the SILENO family of mowers uses 3 pivoting safety blades. We love these because not only are they cost effective, but they are easily replaced so you can always have a perfect cut. You can also rest easy knowing even if you leave something in the yard, the collapsing blades will not damage anything of value or the mower itself.
Connectivity
Bluetooth App
Through the use of the GARDENA smart system Bluetooth app, easily manage many of the mowers features and settings. Set it to Auto Schedule or make your own for vacations or events. Tell it to park when the kids are enjoying the lawn or even configure IFTT commands for your Alexa or Google devices. Get the pesky areas like under the trampoline or around furniture with a spot cut. While the app has many features, there is still direct control and settings on the mower itself.
Accessories
All the bells & whistles
GARDENA offers a myriad of accessories for their SILENO line robotic mowers. Keep it safe from any weather with its own garage. Make sure all the nooks and crannies are clean with the Maintainance and Cleaning Set. When mowing season is over, store it safely in a Storage Bag or maybe you want to decorate the walls of your garage with a handy Wall Hanger. All products are purpose built, with the intent of extending your mowers life.
Obstacles
Boop
Leave something in the lawn? (More likely the little one’s did) Or maybe a napping pup? Fear not. The GARDENA SILENO robotic mower is lightweight and through the use of sensors, knows when it has hit an obstacle. After sensing this resistence, it will stop and redirect itself in order to continue doing its job.
