Our verdict
A reasonable urban-garden robot at the entry of the wire-free category. Husqvarna 305 still wins on durability and dealer support, but if no boundary wire is the priority, the i108E is the cheap way in.
Pros & cons
Pros
- Cheapest wire-free robot
- Compact and unobtrusive
- Decent app
- RTK no-wire setup
Cons
- Only 300m² coverage
- RTK signal sensitive to obstructions
- 18cm cut very slow

Buying second-hand
£400–700 used. RTK base must be included with mounting bracket. Most i108E units are recent — confirm purchase date and warranty status. Reset Segway account before purchase. Avoid units stored outside; the dock electronics corrode in damp UK weather.
