Compare Mowers
List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.
Best suited for
What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.
- Husqvarna Automower 520 — residential: typical home lawns; 9-inch deck; battery (no fuel or engine maintenance)
- Sunseeker Sunseeker X5 Gen 2 — residential: typical home lawns; 9-inch deck; battery (no fuel or engine maintenance)
What’s different? The 3 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Automower 520 is rated for slopes to 45%; Sunseeker X5 Gen 2 is rated for slopes to 60%, a 15 points difference. The slope rating is the maker's limit for safe operation, not a measure of performance.
- Automower 520 is rated for 0.59 acres (2,400 m²) of lawn; Sunseeker X5 Gen 2 is rated for 0.50 acres (2,023 m²) of lawn, a 0.09 acres difference. The rated lawn area is the maker's figure under its own test conditions. Obstacles, slopes and complex shapes reduce it.
- Automower 520 has a 9.4 in (240 mm) deck; Sunseeker X5 Gen 2 has a 8.7 in (221 mm) deck, a 0.7 in difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
