Great scooter // lasts for long time and easy to travel with
I am very happy with this scooter. I had knee surgery to replace my ACL and have been having hip problems on my other side. (I am an older woman) I am fine for everyday activities and work, but I have not been able to last very long when my husband and I go on vacation and take sightseeing adventures. When we went to Disney World six months ago, I rented a scooter for a week and it was just the ideal thing to allow me to enjoy our vacation. So, when we got home, we looked into buying a scooter instead of renting one when we go places. This scooter fit the bill for me. It had all the features I was looking for:
//it was affordable! Renting a scooter for a day anywhere is at least 50. After 13 rentals, this pays for itself.
//it comes apart and fits very easily in the trunk of our car. (A Toyota Corolla). It takes only a few minutes to put it together when we get to our destination.
//even I can lift all the pieces of the scooter if I have to (the heaviest one is around 40 pounds)
//it has four wheels. I was afraid of possibly tipping over with a three wheel scooter.
//the battery lasts for a VERY long time. We recently went to Washington, DC for a three day adventure. The battery lasted for about 6 – 8 hours of constant riding. (The second day we were gone for 12 hours, so when we stopped for lunch, we ate near a plug and charged the battery there.)
//It holds 300 pounds. While I weigh less than 2/3 of that, my husband is close to the upper limit and I wanted to be sure he could ride it, too. (Which he did. A few times I got off to walk and stretch my legs and give him a break.) The scooter had no problems with him aboard.
//It is easy to steer and maneuver. The gauges are easy to read.
I would highly recommend this scooter if you want a portable one. I am really enjoying it and so happy to be able to use it!
