Has anyone found better quality caster wheels to fit the 2024 mower module? Mine wore out after 4 months of service. There were no ball bearings left in either wheel. Yarbo sent me a replacement pair, but they’re the same design as the originals. So that means I will need to replace them again by about April next spring. There’s got to be a longer-lasting wheel that I could install to reduce the amount of time spent on this robot.

I wouldn’t necessarily assume they are of the same design or components. They tweak their components all the time. Someone posted these as a replacement however. is it ok to use compressed air to clean the yarbo core? - #9 by see3d

If you have a Harbor Freight nearby, take one there. At least around me, check the back of the store, left wall.
Report back!

Well. I have new replacement wheels heading my way thanks to Yarbo. But as I didn’t want to one day find the mower turned into metal rake I visited my local hardware store. Replacement wheel in exactly same sizes where only less then 4 euros per one… I could have maxxed out my credit card and bought ‘5 euros per one wheel’ units but those where again a type what had some bearings in them but we all know how long those will last. Wheel is 125mm in diameter and hole size in the middle is good for M10 bolt what Yarbo originally used.
So I’m now about 7 euros poorer but to compensate the 7 euros loss I now have mower I don’t need to worry about.

For the update from the "Wheelgate”. After 14 days Yarbo promising me that they have just sent me the replacements, I today received exactly 1 replacement wheel. I just now sent them a sarcastic email back, asking if they know the design of the mower and does it have 1 or 2 wheels. To be sure I checked and i did sent them picture of 2 broken caster wheels before they sent me confirmation that they have sent me replacements.
I’m now very satisfied that I bought those other wheels 2 weeks ago…

I’m very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. We’ve received the pictures you provided and will arrange shipment of the second replacement wheel as soon as possible.

These work great (so far) and when they’re on you can tell they seem smoother and more durable:

I have a question. As I haven’t still received the second replacement wheel, then when “as soon as possible” will happen for this item im missing?
