   My 96 year old grandmother broke her hip a few months ago. She used to be fairly active for her age before that, but the break really slowed her down.I live 2 blocks down the street from her and she used to walk down often, but under the circumstances obviously she can’t anymore. She became depressed and moved around even less.She refuses to move in with me, and my tribe won’t fit in her house, so I surprised her with the scooter in case she needs to get to me for any reason.She has really perked up and visits almost daily for lunch and a bit of gossip! She aspires to drive around our quiet neighborhood and go to the corner store for a soda like she used to before she broke her hip. It has given her back a sense of the life she thought she would have to totally give up.Also, it makes her “feel like less of a burden” because she can zip down to my house for a meal instead of me “catering to her” and dropping meals off to her. (Her words, not mine!)When delivered, the box is heavy, but I managed to get it in the house by myself (42F). The scooter was easy to assemble and charge.She is a tiny woman (4’10”, 75lbs) and has only made little 4 block round trips daily for about two weeks, so the battery has almost a full charge still.Our street is bumpy with lots of potholes, so she keeps it on slow mode most of the time for safety, but the fast mode on a smooth surface (grocery store/newer street) would be fine. It has no shocks so taking a bump makes it feel very unstable. Also I would think that tall people might not have enough legroom.She is able to maneuver it easily, and the steering takes a very light touch.It meets her needs perfectly, and it was a fairly economical choice, compared to other models I priced. Having a little help to keep active has really lifted her spirits and restored her independence and dignity.Just keep in mind she is little and light, and uses the scooter less than an hour a day. If you are in a different situation with different needs, your outcome may very well be different.

   Received the scooter in just 5 days and it was very well packaged. It took less than 15 minutes to unpack and assemble. Super easy assembly!! 5mph is a lot faster than you think when you’re in the seat. Easy maneuverability, tighter turning radius than I expected. I had read where the horn and backup notification was extremely loud….it’s not as loud as I expected. It’s loud enough so that people around you will hear it, but not overly loud. When walking a long distance, I struggle to breath. This scooter now allows me to go watch my grandkids play baseball, go to marching band competitions and I can get outside and ride along with my grandkids while they are riding their bikes. Take it camping and still be able to ride around the campground (on paved road) and enjoy nature. I can now go to the near by convenient store, take a stroll through my neighborhood. Having this scooter gives me the opportunity to get out and enjoy the outdoors. I have zero complaints/issues with this scooter. It is definitely serving its purpose.

   I bought this for my 12-year old son, who has mobility issues stemming from a brain injury. He has limited use of his left hand, but the way the controls are arranged, he can use either hand to move forward or reverse. The seat is comfortable, and the baskets are handy. It breaks down nicely for transport. The range is impressive. We went on a six-mile walk and had battery to spare. It handles gravel and trimmed grass decently. I’m very happy with this purchase.

   Who is that woman putting the scooter in her car trunk? Mr. Universe in drag? Otherwise sturdy, speedy, stylish and reliable scooter with a nice tight turning range, although not really so great on grass–try zip ties on wheels for better traction.

   I’ve added to this regarding usage experience. Separating the parts for loading is easy. Loading into our SUV goes great. The individual components are lighter and easier to load than a wheel chair. Works great, easy to maneuver. Speed control is responsive. People have commented on how easy it is to load after seeing me in the grocery store parking.Just recieved and assembled it. Super easy! Don’t know about the performance yet, I’ll update that after we’ve used it some.Notes on receiving and assembly:1. The box is heavy. 100 pounds heavy. You may need help. You will need some sort of wheeled device to move it. (If you don’t have anything, buy a two wheeler from Lowes or Home Depot. Use it this once, clean it up, and return it for refund. Just say you changed your mind.)2. Lay the box flat on the floor. Right side up. Cut the straps and carefully cut the tape. Don’t cut deep. Open the box and take out the easy stuff. Read the two page instructions. No, really read them.3. After you take out the easy stuff, cut all 4 corners of the box to lay it flat. This will give you easy access to the rest of the parts.4. Following the instructions, complete the assembly. Charge the battery 12 hours! If you want to move the assembled scooter look on the right rear fender. Little lever with pictures on the sticker. Move the lever forward and roll the scooter where you want to. Move the lever back to lock.5. Clean up and dispose of the packing. Sit down with your preferred beverage and read the instruction book like I’m getting ready to.
