I have a couple video reviews on YouTube, same name. Not great uphill. Motor isn't strong, so I have to kick start it in traffic so I'm not too slow and blocking traffic. Don't expect to go up a steep hill at all, unless maybe you're under 100 pounds. Probably one of the better ones for the price. Has dual brakes, the Walmart version, Hyper Skute, doesn't. I got a rear brake light with a switch for signals and a horn and it has automatic brake lights on a mercury switch for about $30-40.
I sold it to my friend that's one of the biggest used car salesmen in Montana and he said they all love it to take a few blocks away to the store. I bought a Lectric XP 3.0 Long Range for $1,200, so nowhere near comparable, but it folds and goes 30 MPH and uphill without being a problem, so I had no need for this anymore, but it's a lot easier to move around than my bike. I like it a lot better than the standup Hover 1 scooter I had bought off of a listing on here several months before. It's sitting in the hall to sell, too. I rode it across town to change cars because it's easy to load up, but I think standup scooters are sketchy due to the rake of the handlebars.

Battery still going strong 1 bar gone when going 5-6 miles now as before it was a good 10 miles. I don't charge over night. Son still able to stand while I sit if we want to go somewhere together or if his scooter dies we can use the basket to keep his on. I'd buy this again now but am I buying returns from Costco or used scooters repackaged as new?
They look very practical but I wonder are they like "Dad" material?
