Episode 3: Real Garden Care Stories

In this episode of Real Garden Stories, we head to Sweden to meet Sven-Erik and explore his 1,500 m² garden. Driven by curiosity, he’s now the proud owner of an autonomous robot.

Sven-Erik lives in the town of Tvååker, where he and his wife have enjoyed their home and beautiful garden since 1976.

Their home sits on a generous 1,500 m² plot, with around 1,000 m² of it dedicated to lawn. It’s more than just grass—it’s a space that holds memories, laughter, and the footsteps of everyone who visits.

His wife lovingly cares for the greenhouse and vegetable beds, which include a treasured rhubarb patch. Dipped in sugar, its tangy sweetness is a beloved treat for their grandchildren.

Another corner of the garden bursts with energy and laughter — a space just for the grandkids, where they can play and make their own garden memories. 

At the heart of it all is Sven-Erik, guardian of the lawn.

Life before the robot mower

Before retiring, Sven-Erik worked with STIGA products in his professional life, so he knew the brand well and trusted its quality. Naturally, when it came to caring for his own lawn, he chose a STIGA Park front mower along with a roller mower to keep everything neat and tidy.

But over time, he started hearing glowing reviews from customers who had switched to a STIGA autonomous robot mower. Their experiences sparked his curiosity, and he began to wonder if it might be time for a change.

The idea of enjoying retirement without the regular chore of mowing was too tempting to ignore. The thought of having more free time—to relax, explore hobbies, or simply enjoy the garden—made the decision an easy one. So, he took the leap and welcomed a STIGA robot mower into his garden routine.

The robot mower experience

Sven-Erik welcomed the robot mower into his garden in the summer of 2024, and it has kept all four mowing zones perfectly cut ever since.

For Sven-Erik, watching the robot at work is surprisingly satisfying. He finds the process fascinating—quiet, efficient, and almost therapeutic. With its low noise level and seamless operation, the mower has become a welcome companion in the garden.

Sven-Erik proudly calls himself a STIGA robot mower owner and recommends it to everyone who visits his garden.
