Many pros and some thing to work on The build quality is good. The packaging is great. The customer support is even better. The bad is the software. Issues with android app not working with default channel of wifi, I had to find an iphone to get that corrected. Need to use stainless steel screws on the output snow chute; I'm sure you all see the rust everywhere on that part. The throwing is weak and definitely have to remove the guard and sides in order to do any real work.

I was a kickstarter backer. I was a kickstarter backer. I have had nothing but success with the Yarbo. Full disclosure: only able to use the S1 unit twice this winter due to lack of snowfall; however, the Yarbo has handled both masterfully. It throws snow and scrapes the driveway as well as any man-piloted snowblower unit. For the Yarbo company, they have been supportive and provides immediate responses (within 24 hours) to inquiries. For example, my original Yarbo unit had difficulties finding GPS. Yarbo kept in constant communication and even provided a new unit free of charge. The new unit works phenomenally. I recommend the unit to all friends and family. Some notes: the first time setup is a bit difficult and tedious taking multiple hours and involves tasks not suitable for everyone like hammering stakes and mounting an antenna on the roof. Also, there's connection issues if you do not have a proper wifi setup (I use a Mesh system to cover my entire lot). Overall, very happy with the purchase and feel supported by the company.

Buyer Beware Buyer Beware: Connectivity Issues and Hidden Costs with Yarbo I backed Yarbo on Kickstarter with high hopes for a revolutionary product, but unfortunately, my experience has been far from satisfactory. The most glaring issue is the Yarbo's consistent inability to connect to WiFi and GPS networks, rendering it essentially inoperable. Despite multiple attempts to troubleshoot these issues with the Yarbo support team, the device remains unreliable and unusable for its intended purposes. As an initial backer, the financial commitment has also become increasingly burdensome. What was initially an exciting investment has doubled in cost due to unexpected additional charges required to make the Yarbo functional. The extra money and countless hours spent interacting with support have not translated into a usable product. For a gadget that costs almost as much as a car, one would expect a seamless and efficient performance, but Yarbo has fallen far short. The lack of transparency and reliability from the company has been disappointing. Prospective buyers should exercise caution and consider waiting until these significant issues are resolved and the company demonstrates honesty and reliability in their product and customer interactions. As it stands, Yarbo is not worth the investment. I would also be leery of the 4 and 5 star reviews. I am part of a community of early supporters and none of those name look familiar to me.

Yarbo's vision is truly impressive Yarbo's vision is truly impressive, and I am eager to join them on their journey. Their commitment to customer service is evident as they consistently address all inquiries thoroughly. Their transparent communication and attentiveness to community feedback highlight their dedication. This is a remarkable company with a clear and appropriate focus. Their products are of superior quality, and with ongoing updates, they continue to enhance performance.

Outstanding Customer Service! Outstanding customer service is what this company is all about. Any issue with the unit is quickly addressed and remedied. Yarbo should be an example to all companies for their superior service.
