"A terrific solution!"

Love it! I ride it to work everyday! Really strong, well built, and costs a fraction of the TAX on a Segway. Only problem I have is its weight because I live on the second floor and have no elevator. 4 stars

"Mediocre at best"

I purchased three of these units. The last one in stock from Wal-Mart (charger failed within 2 hours), the last two in stock from K-Mart,(charger missing on one unit). After a lengthy telephone call to Currie, they agreed to ship two replacement chargers. The units frequently shut off when coasting down hill if the speed goes over the max set by the on board circuit controllers. We are hoping to use them in campgrounds and such. The handlebars fold down and the seat posts come out for travel but the units are a little heavy to lift. For the money, chargers aside, they seem to be a good deal.
In a follow up, Currie sent me two new chargers and the units have worked fine every since. 2 stars

"Top Notch!!"

This is a very sturdy scooter, having the seat greatly improves stability when riding. Being an adult in her shall we say mid 40's standing was a problem as the length of the deck could've been a few inches more, so i choose the seat. Excellent value for money, just right for nipping to the shops! 4 stars
