Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Then buy this scooter. If not, beware. I am a 115-lb female and this scooter was broken within the first week. Total motor failure. I contacted the seller about a return, which led me to their company website. A week later, they had not replied (even though they alleged a wonderful 3-day-response time!) A week later, I sent them a bump to the thread. Still no reply. So I took it to the Amazon fraud department and went through there. The seller finally responds to my return request. Great! Now I can return this! It's been taking up space in my apartment and is useless. I just want my money back. Now I can finally get it back! Not so. The very next day, they CANCEL the return request on their side and let Amazon know that their reason is "by buyer request." I found this out at the end of an 8-hour shift at my minimum wage job. So: this scooter will fail almost immediately, then the seller will give you the runaround and try to defraud you. The claims for this scooter aren't even true. It lasts maybe 6-8 miles, not 12; it does not go up to 15 MPH. More like 12 MPH, max. Oh, and -- the first time I tried to leave a review, Amazon wouldn't let me submit it 'cause the at-the-time-all-positive reviews for this piece of junk were "under investigation." Take from that what you will. If you buy this scooter, have decreased expectations for the one or two uses you get out of this. I love using Bird and Lime, but this wasn't even comparable. And since my reasoning for buying this scooter was to save money overall on my rides, this wasn't a good buy either. Instead of $1 to start and 15 cents a minute, this was $470 for about 20 minutes. Do the math, or don't. But either way, DO NOT BUY THIS SCOOTER.
