According to our robot lawn mower expert
You can control the Bosch Indego S+ 500 via an app. This way, you can set up mowing programs, monitor the progress of the mowing, and stay informed about maintenance. Thanks to the Smartmowing function, the robot lawn mower considers the weather forecast. In case of bad weather, the robot lawn mower skips a round independently. It doesn't mow in random lanes, but first maps out the lawn to mow as efficiently as possible. With the 150m perimeter wire, you can border off the area the robot lawn mower should mow. This makes the mower suitable for gardens with ponds or flower beds as well.

Bought this Bosch Indego S+500 at coolblue. Doubted between the gardena smart 250 but ultimately opted for Bosch. In particular, the mowing system is better thought out (logicut) compared to the random mowing of the Gardena. Also having his own mobile phone card (free of charge) and intelligent mowing (using the weather forecast, growth forecast, etc.) he decides when he will mow. In addition, this is a 2021 model where many teething problems compared to the +350 and +400 have disappeared. As far as the option is concerned, Bosch is innovative instead of continuing to use the old random mowing systems. It's a pity that the coolblue site indicates that there is initially €100 cashback for this type, but when you click through, only €50 remains. Although cheaper elsewhere, I chose coolblue because of the service I have received on other products in the past
Installation: Package is more than complete, multiple manuals and also linking with app is very easy. Many settings possible via app and via display. First laid wire on the ground. Distance to walls can even be 25cm instead of 30cm. Lay out the wire and secure it with plastic pegs. After installation, it first follows the contours of your garden. If it gets stuck on a bend, for example, adjust it and start again. In my garden of 60m2 there are several curves and corridors. After about an hour everything was installed and he could start. I had first cut out a tree, but I removed it anyway. The tree avoids it by itself when it bumps into it and the buried garden lighting was no problem. It comes with enough wire, plastic pegs and manuals. Also a 5 meter charger extension cable. Take the time to install. After a few months when all route errors have been fine-tuned, I will dig in the cable myself.
Now install a garage so he can stay outside 24/7
Mowing/Durability: Will adjust this review but my grass was already a bit shorter and I have no mowing result yet. After installation, he will learn several times in the garden. This went without any problems and no obstacles were discovered after installation. In terms of durability I can't say anything yet, but robot looks and feels very solid and good.
I will update the review when I have more info and experiences

I've had the robot for about a year now and plan to simply return it in the hopes that I can choose a different make and/or model. Over the past year I've filled every tiny hole in my lawn, re-layed perimeter wire, built a cobblestone board, ... and STILL the Bosch Indego M+700 manages to get stuck on a daily basis. If there is a good day he just skips parts, luckily he consistently skips the same parts so that in the meantime I know where I still have to mow. The app regularly hangs spontaneously, but usually also restarts itself to show outdated data afterwards. For example, the app just said that the next mowing will take place yesterday... Maybe after 360 days of annoyance I am a bit too negative but for this amount I really expected A LOT more. To make it even crazier is this product "Coolblue's choice"!?

Very disappointing, especially because it does not return to base station by itself, poor help/no Bosch, always trying the same 'solution' which does not help
