The WR130E is the smallest wired Landroid we compare, rated for lawns up to 300 m². It keeps the same 18 cm cutting width as the bigger WR142E, which is wide for a robot with this rating, and adds app control with automatic software updates. It suits a small to medium back garden where the owner wants remote control from a phone without paying for a larger mower.

Our take
Narrow passages without a guide wire
Many wired robots need an extra guide wire to find their way through a narrow gap between two lawn areas. The listing says the WR130E does not, which simplifies installation in a garden split by a path or a shed. Worx says it moves quickly even in the most difficult passages.
Cutting and scheduling
The 18 cm cut covers a 300 m² lawn comfortably, with height adjustable from 20 mm to 50 mm in three positions. Worx says Landroid improves its daily mowing cycle by analysing data. The app allows remote control and programming from a phone or tablet, and firmware updates install automatically.
Size and what is missing
Amazon lists the weight at 7.9 kg and the dimensions at about 51 by 36 by 21 cm, so it is easy to lift and store for winter. A charger is included. The listing does not state a noise level, runtime, slope limit or what the boundary wire kit contains, and the title mentions that it mows in the rain without detail on a rain sensor. Check the Worx manual if your lawn has any real gradient. If you hope to add extras later, such as an anti-collision sensor or GPS tracking, confirm which Worx modules suit this model, as the listing does not mention any.
Alternatives at this size
The Gardena Sileno minimo 250 is quieter at a stated 57 dB(A) and comes with a UK plug, but its Bluetooth app only works within about 10 m. The Gardena Sileno City adds a 35% slope rating. The Worx Landroid WR142E is the step up if your lawn is nearer 700 m², and it adds a stated 35% slope rating plus Alexa and Google Home support.
Verdict
Choose the WR130E for a flat or near flat lawn up to 300 m² where app control from anywhere and a simple installation appeal. If quiet running is the priority, the Gardena Sileno minimo 250 is the better match, and if your lawn has a slope, the Gardena Sileno City states a 35% rating.
