Discount the part at the end of the video where they talk about the competition. This scooter is 2 years old in design, and even in the 2nd half of 2024, a lot of new competition has matched or bettered the Segway. At higher price points than this sale, these days there are other options like:
- the Okai Neon Ultra es40. Awesome machine for $200 more than this sale price. Whether the extra money is worth it depends on each individual's needs and usage.
- Apollo Go. Costs almost twice the price of this Segway sale, so probably not worth it for most. BUT the Go crushes hills, is loaded with the latest tech, and is damn good on its own merits.
- Vmax vx4 rides all day comfortably, and the vx2 Pro is only $100 more than the Segway
- and of course have to mention Voro motors lineup, and in particular the Emove Cruiser S (and since if you wanna splurge hard, the Cruiser v2). Long-range kings, great bang-for-the-buck, and highly customizable while still being damn good stock out the box.
Again, for the $600 though, the Segway is great even if I'd probably spend the extra 2 bills to buy the Okai es40 (in blue for better visibility to other people).
Last thing: if you're gonna ride over ~10mph, wear a helmet! Death by scooter is a silly way to go, and easily minimized with head protection.

I have bought several electric scooters from them including service plans and they always have an excuse to not honor them. Avoid them at all cost.

I chose not to return the scooter because the seller provided a replacement indicator button and issued a $45 refund to compensate for the poor condition.

But as someone working down towards 285lbs currently, it seems to do ok with my big booty.
I live in SF, so lots of hill testing. It won't do the promised 22% grade with me (obviously) but it's still very useful for established bike paths. It will handle 10-14% grade just fine, although at the top end of that we're going down to 7mph.
I was looking for a reasonably priced commuter scooter for a big guy and this is where I landed last month. Not a lot of experience but I've been happy with it!
And the regen brake is excellent in the city!
