 |  |  | | Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - Adult user: generally good but hard on my back I am an older graduate student who is also pregnant and bought this scooter (used) to get around the very large campus. I've had it for about two weeks and use it every weekday. My overall impression is that it'll do but I wouldn't buy it again. I also wouldn't want to use it for longer trips (more than a couple-three miles). Since I got it used, I did not have any start up or assembly problems.
Pros: - Easy to use - Stable - Powerful enough (barely) to get 160 pounds of me plus baby plus backpack up very steep hills - Charges in reasonable time - Looks cool - Tight turning radius - I can turn it around in an elevator! - Relatively inexpensive
Cons: - Not great on rough ground. There are several problems here: -- The first is that it is hard to keep the thumb throttle (right hand only) at a constant power when you go over rough terrain. -- More seriously, there is no shock absorbtion in the rear suspension, and the tires are hard plastic. The result is that bumps go right up my spine. This can be mitigated by flexing the knees and keeping my weight off my heels, but it's more work than I was hoping. This is even a problem going over cracks in the sidewalk. -- Plenty of stability for rough ground, however. - The thumb throttle is some effort for my wrist tendons, the same ones that are strained by typing all those papers.... - I could use a little more power. Except in San Francisco, most hills meant for a car the scooter will handle ok. However, some pedestrian paths have steeper grades and I have almost had to get off and push the thing. I think 500W might be better. - No place for cargo, like my backpack.
Neither pro nor con but important to know is that on grades, the controller seems to cut out the motor if you push too hard. If you are having trouble getting up a hill and push the throttle all the way, you will get a sudden jerk and lose all power. If you put on the brake and let it rest for a moment, then edge the throttle back up and not all the way to maximum, it will restart. There is clearly an art to this, and I don't quite have the knack yet. It seems possible that many of the stories of poor performance might have to do with this behavior.
