## Executive read

### BLUF

April 2017 is a thin month. Honda’s 11–13 April US Miimo introduction is a dealer-channel product launch with marketing safety language, not a regulator action and not a named injury. No official consumer-robot recall was located.

### Key judgments

1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** No CPSC, Health Canada, or RAPEX consumer-robot recall dated April 2017 was found.
2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** Honda Power Equipment’s 11 April 2017 US Miimo intro (HRM 310 / HRM 520; dealer install of boundary wire; “available starting in June”) is out of this filing as a product launch. Contact-sensor marketing copy is not a recall.
3. **[Assessment — High confidence]** iRobot’s April patent suits against other robovacs are IP, not kinematic harm.

### Analytic labels
- **Fact** — verified reporting or primary record
- **Assessment** — analytic judgment
- **Inference** — reasoned but not directly observed
- **Uncertainty** — unresolved information gap

### Source grades
- **A1** — authoritative primary record / directly confirmed
- **B1–B2** — generally reliable and corroborated
- **C3** — useful but requires caution (typical for forums)

## No numbered signals

This month produced **zero** in-window spine-grade signals. Honda Miimo US introduction and iRobot robovac patent litigation are recorded as exclusions, not as Fact signals.

**Forum / community notes.**
- none found.

## Forward indicators

1. June Miimo dealer availability — still a product event unless a regulator or injury primary appears.
2. Any RAPEX / CPSC robotic-mower action in the 2017 mowing season.
3. Dated Jibo fulfillment.
4. Kuri holiday-2017 ship still on the calendar.
5. Any brand-named robotic-mower pediatric case.

> **Collection integrity.** Window = April 2017 only. **Excluded:** Honda Miimo US intro, 11–13 April 2017 ([Honda](https://global.honda/en/newsroom/worldnews/2017/p170413Leave-it-to-Miimo.html)) — product launch, not a safety or trust primary. iRobot patent complaints (April) — IP. Walk-behind mower recalls are out of class. No official consumer-robot ID this month. No named mower fatality. No Roomba CPSC recall. Forum empty. Thin month left thin.
