From sewing machines to motorbikes — Husqvarna has always been a brand that evolves. 🌿

Most people know Husqvarna today for their incredible outdoor power equipment, but this brand's journey is truly remarkable. Founded back in 1689, Husqvarna has reinvented itself time and time again — crafting sewing machines, bicycles, motorbikes, and eventually the outdoor power tools we rely on today.

And one of the most exciting chapters in that story? The Automower. 🤖

Back in 1995, Husqvarna introduced the world's first robotic lawn mower — a bold idea that most people had never even imagined. Since then, the Automower has come a long way:

✔️ 1995 — The original Automower launched, changing the way we think about lawn care forever.
✔️ Early 2000s — Smarter navigation and improved battery technology made it more reliable.
✔️ 2010s — GPS-assisted systems, app connectivity, and sleeker designs arrived.
✔️ Today — Husqvarna Automowers feature EPOS™ satellite navigation, smart home integration, and quiet precision that works around your schedule.

At Hoopers Outdoor Power Centre, we are proud to carry a brand that has never stopped pushing forward. Whether you are new to robotic mowing or looking to upgrade, we are here to help you find the right fit — no pressure, just honest advice.

What do you think is the most impressive leap Husqvarna has made over the years — and would you ever let a robot take care of your lawn? 💬

Spring is closer than you think — and your lawnmower deserves a little care before the season kicks off. 🌱

We know how easy it is to put off maintenance tasks over winter. Life gets busy, and the mower just sits in the shed. But a quick winter service now can save you a lot of stress when the grass starts growing and you need your equipment ready to go.

At Hoopers Outdoor Power Centre, we're here to help make that process simple and straightforward. A winter service for your lawnmower typically covers the things that matter most — blade sharpening, oil changes, filter checks, and making sure everything is running smoothly before spring arrives.

Here's why it's worth doing now rather than later:

✔️ Avoid the spring rush — service times fill up fast once the season begins
✔️ Catch small issues before they become bigger, more costly repairs
✔️ Step into spring with confidence, knowing your equipment is ready

We genuinely care about helping you get the most out of your outdoor power equipment. Bringing your mower in now means one less thing to worry about when the warmer days arrive.

Reach out to the team at Hoopers Outdoor Power Centre today — we're happy to help you get sorted before the season sneaks up on us all.

So tell us — do you usually service your mower before spring, or do you tend to wait until you actually need it? 👇

From a quiet hum in 1995 to a smart, self-navigating machine today — the Husqvarna Automower has come a long way. 🌿

At Hoopers Outdoor Power Centre, we love sharing the story of how this little robot changed the way people care for their lawns.

Here's a quick look at the journey:

📍 1995 — Husqvarna introduced the world's first robotic lawnmower. It was a bold idea that most people had never seen before. Simple, but revolutionary.

📍 Early 2000s — The technology improved. Mowers became more reliable, better at handling different lawn shapes, and easier to set up.

📍 2010s — Smart features arrived. GPS guidance, app connectivity, and quieter motors made Automowers a genuine everyday tool — not just a novelty.

📍 Today — Modern Automowers work with precision mapping, handle complex gardens, operate in the rain, and can even be monitored from your phone. They are smarter, quieter, and more efficient than ever.

Nearly 30 years of innovation, and the mission has stayed the same — give people more time back and a beautifully maintained lawn without the effort.

We have watched this technology grow, and we are proud to help our customers find the right Automower for their needs. Whether you are new to robotic mowing or thinking about upgrading, we are here to help guide you through it honestly and simply.

What do you think has been the most impressive step forward in robotic mower technology over the years? We would love to hear your thoughts. 👇

Is your outdoor power equipment ready to take on the season ahead? 🌿

We know how frustrating it can be when your lawn mower or chainsaw lets you down right when you need it most. That feeling is completely understandable — and it's exactly why we're here to help.

At Hoopers Outdoor Power Centre, our fully equipped workshop team has been caring for outdoor power equipment in Ashburton, New Zealand, for over 30 years. From routine servicing to more complex repairs, we treat every piece of equipment with the same care and attention we'd give our own.

Here are a few simple maintenance tips to keep your equipment running smoothly:

🔧 **Clean your equipment after every use** — dirt and debris build up quickly and can cause long-term damage.
🔋 **Check your battery charge regularly** — especially for our popular battery series tools, keeping them properly charged extends their lifespan.
✂️ **Sharpen blades on your grass trimmers and hedge trimmers** — dull blades make the job harder and put extra strain on the motor.
⛽ **Use fresh fuel** — old fuel is one of the most common causes of starting problems in lawn mowers and chainsaws.

Whether you're a homeowner, a landowner, or a professional, our friendly team at 11 Peter Street is always happy to offer honest, straightforward advice tailored to your needs. No pressure, just genuine help from people who truly know their equipment.

We're proud to be your trusted local Husqvarna dealer, and we genuinely care about keeping your tools in top condition so you can get the job done right.
