Very nice,
We bought these scooters for our kids for Christmas. While our kids are under the recommended age (7 and 9), we started our kids riding bikes and motorized toys very early in life so we had no concerns and we never let them ride anything unsupervised. I must say that I am very impressed with these scooters. My kids have ridden them almost non-stop. So far the only issue we’ve had is the kickstands have broken on both of them but they’ve been tanks in terms of build quality otherwise (they’ve crashed a few times). I was surprised with how much power they have and even move my 200 lb frame quickly on everything but steep inclines. I’ll keep the review short and just do a summary list.
Pros:
- Power (with very smooth acceleration)
- Durability (except kickstand)
- Ride comfort (smooth ride and nice seat)
- Size (small enough for them but big enough for me and my wife)
- Charges faster than any similar motorized vehicle we own (still takes 5-6 hours from low though)
- Good battery life (given the performance…about and hour and a half was as long as we’ve lasted)
Cons:
- Heavy (makes lifting into our truck or car a workout)
- Brakes can require a fair amount of adjusting to get right
So far, I’m glad we chose this over the Razor E300.

|Great scooter for the money,
I purchased this scooter for my 13 year old son and he LOVES it! The scooter was extremely easy to assemble and is very sturdy. The battery charges easily and allows him to travel for roughly eight miles per charge. The top speed is 15mph which is fast enough for him to have fun without worrying his Mom too much! It does great on hills and zips right along on flat surfaces. My son and I are both very happy with this purchase!

|Good Over all”BUT !”,
This is a good product overall but the lack of a rear brake gives me pause. Having ridden motorcycles off and on for 40+yrs. I can assure you breaking hard on your front brake is risky business. I think my 8 year old grandson will master it as he is smart and athletic but we shall see. Personally I think this is cost savings at its worst. Otherwise at less than $ 200.00 it’s a good value and shows better build quality than it’s competition like Razor for example.
