Quick Answer: The Husqvarna Automower 305 is a compact boundary-wire robot mower rated by Husqvarna for lawns up to 600 m² (about 0.15 acre) with a 40% slope rating and a 59 dB(A) noise level — but it is not sold in the US. It’s a UK/EU-market model, priced around £1,300–£1,400 through European dealers, with no official US distribution, pricing, or warranty support (Husqvarna’s own US site returns a 404 for it). US shoppers searching for a small, affordable Husqvarna should instead look at the Automower 115H — Husqvarna’s actual cheapest current US model, covering more lawn (0.4 acre) at a $699 MSRP with real dealer and Amazon support.
Husqvarna’s model lineup differs sharply by region, and the 305 is one of the clearer examples: it’s a real, current product — Husqvarna’s UK site actively sells it alongside the related 310 Mark II and 315 Mark II — but it was built for the European compact-garden market and was never brought to the US. If you found this page searching for a “305,” you’re most likely trying to figure out whether it’s worth buying (it’s a competent small-lawn mower where it’s sold) or, more likely for US readers, whether you can actually get one here (you can’t, easily). Below we cover the real specs and pricing, why the US gap exists, and exactly which Husqvarna model to buy instead.

Why the Automower 305 isn’t sold in the US
Husqvarna sells substantially different robotic mower lineups by region, the same way it never officially brought the compact Flymo EasiLife GO boundary-wire line (a sister Husqvarna Group brand) to the US. The 305 and its 310 Mark II / 315 Mark II siblings occupy Husqvarna’s entry tier in the UK and continental Europe, where smaller, more irregularly shaped gardens make a sub-0.25-acre, Bluetooth-only mower a sensible product. In the US, Husqvarna instead built its entry tier around the 115H — a US-specific model with a larger 0.4-acre rating — and the rest of the current US catalog jumps straight to the wire-free iQ series starting at $2,999.99. There’s no 305 listing, support page, or dealer stock anywhere in Husqvarna’s US network; typing “Automower 305” into Husqvarna’s US site search returns nothing, and its dedicated support URL 404s.
What the Automower 305 actually offers (UK/EU spec)
Husqvarna Automower 305
- Husqvarna rates it for lawns up to 600 m² (~0.15 acre) — a small, simple garden footprint.
- Boundary wire plus charging station install, same as almost every Husqvarna model outside the iQ/EPOS wire-free lines.
- 2.1Ah lithium-ion battery, roughly 60 minutes of mowing per charge, 3 pivoting razor blades, manual 20–50mm cutting height.
- Bluetooth-only connectivity via the Automower Connect@Home app — no cellular remote access or GPS theft tracking.
- 59 dB(A) noise level, on par with Husqvarna's US-market 115H.
Where it’s sold, the 305 is a competent, no-frills machine — Husqvarna’s build quality and 3-pivoting-blade cutting system carry over from every other Automower. It just isn’t a machine US buyers can walk into with normal warranty and parts support.
The US alternative: Husqvarna Automower 115H
Husqvarna Automower 115H
- Covers up to 0.4 acre (1,500 m²) — well ahead of the 305's 0.15 acre — on the same boundary-wire-plus-Bluetooth formula.
- $699 MSRP, frequently discounted to $300–$500, versus roughly $1,650–$1,800 to import a 305 with duty and shipping.
- Full US Husqvarna dealer network and warranty support, plus genuine US parts and blade availability.
The math is straightforward: importing a 305 costs more than a 115H while covering less lawn and losing US warranty support entirely — there’s no scenario where importing wins. If your yard is closer to a half-acre, the wire-free 410 iQ ($2,999.99) is the step up. And since a 115H’s mow cycle runs a full hour at a stretch, it’s a natural excuse to queue something up — start a free Audible trial and get your first audiobook free while it works the yard.
Bottom line
The Husqvarna Automower 305 is a real, current product — just not one US shoppers can buy through normal channels. If you’re in the UK or EU and have a small, simple garden under 0.15 acre, it’s a reasonable boundary-wire pick at around £1,300–£1,400. If you’re in the US, skip the import headache entirely and get the Automower 115H instead — more coverage, a fraction of the import cost, and full Husqvarna US dealer backing.
