If you're going to shop at Walmart, this looks like a better deal for a real ebike:

Always enjoy the ebike riders who zip along on trails clearly marked no motorized vehicles. EBIKE riders don't seem to either pedal their bikes or read signs.

FWIW, mine came in last week and my 14 year old son loves it. I'm about 240 lbs, and at level 3 assist, it flattens some moderate hills in the neighborhood. I'm sure level 3 does a lot more for my much lighter son.
A few notes. The front fork/shock tubes seem flimsy, or maybe I'm just not used to a bike with disk brakes. When I ride it and hit the front brake hard, the whole fork seems to shift to the left. I've had the wheel off 3 times to make sure it's installed correctly and it is. I really wish it just had a solid fork instead of a cheap shock. It basically feels like a $200 non-motorized bike as far as build quality goes, and I'd definitely buy again at $400.
Bike came in and I love it. It's my first ebike so I have no basis for comparison but I used to ride a road bike as my primary way of gettin around and this is familiar let new experience. The bike feels heavy cruiser with some road characteristics. The tires are slim and large like a road bike, but the posture and handlebar placement feel more like a cruiser. The motor really makes mountains into molehills when you're riding the bike. I'm 5'10" 200lbs and this thing gets me up some hills that were real leg burners on much lighter traditional bikes no sweat. I am downshifting, slowing my pace, and contributing some power to the climb, but it feels like a completely different level of energy expenditure. I can climb the hill without significantly changing my breathing if I shift just right, and that felt magical. The brakes as shipped kinda suck but I think it's just the pads. They stop the bike reliably in a reasonable distance, but they feel real rough and they don't inspire confidence. Also note that mine came with a different derailleur than the one listed and pictured on the sale page (microshift 26 rather than shimano tourney), and a different controller than the one pictured. When I asked support about the differences they just said sometimes their techs run out of the components that are listed so they put on an equivalent so they can ship the bike. The derailleur works as it should. My only complaint about the replacement controller is that it doesn't have a +/- control, just a button to turn it on, and a second button to cycle through the three available pedal assist speeds. My favorite speed so far for comfort/range has been the second speed setting. Unfortunately that means to get my preferred pedal assist speed to no pedal assist, I have to go through high pedal assist speed, which can be jarring. Those are my only complaints about the bike and they're pretty minor. It seems very well thought out, well built, and it came 90% per-assembled in the box so it was easy for a fool to put together. I've already started getting out and biking more because it feels like a new toy with all of it's get-up-and-go. When the pedal assist kicks in it feels like someone is pushing you from behind, very satisfying. Bike weighs fifty pounds so it's pretty heavy to try to pedal uphill with no pedal assist, but I found it found it surprisingly manageable on flats with no assist at all. I haven't had the same problems with the front shock or fork that Brent has. The front suspension feels very smooth and does not pull when braking. Anyway I'm really happy with this thing for the price. I'll post an update if anything goes catastrophically wrong with it. Thanks slickdeals for showing me the way!
