    Not worth it unless you paid $30 bucks.

    Unfortunately, this thing did not last 4 months riding on paved asphalt. My kid weighed under 60 lbs and did no tricks and his wheel became unwelded inside the shaft. Caused him to wreck and get hurt. 2 months in his cover on the brake snapped off and now this. Stay away from this cheap (covid-19) quality product.

    Perfect for any child under 130 lbs, but I have had issues with the power over time. I didn't purchase the warranty and my son hasn't ridden it in a while. It was nice at first, but i feel like quality deteriorated as time passed.

    Perfect scooter for my 8 year old

    I purchased this scooter for my 8 year old son for Christmas. Was very happy to find that the scooter was completely assembled in the box. It needed about an hour to completely charge the battery so that it would be ready to ride on Christmas morning. He took to it very quickly and was cruising up and down the street at full speed after taking about 10-15 minutes to get used to. The controls are very straight forward with one button to accelerate and another to stop. There is also a brake on the back that you can push with your foot to stop. The lights on the handle are bright and slowly change color so he is very easy to see when rolling down the street after dark. The only downside I have found is the kickstand does not work very well. It can be knocked over very easily and unless you are on a solid, flat surface, it will not stand up on it's own.

    A decent scooter for a young child. Ours lasted about 9 months and then finally gave up the ghost last week. Battery says charged (according to the power brick) but it will not power on. two months ago, the plastic piece over the rear wheel was broken off by an older neighbor kid and I was not able to find replacement parts (I am not dinging Hover-1 for that though). I only paid $49 for this on sale so I am not too broken up about it over all.

    It was good when it actually worked. Now that the warranty is over it will not charge and no one will cover the cost of it getting fix. It will not charge whatsoever and is clearly a fault of the manufacturer. We only had this Scooter for 3 months and this was the second one because the brake of the first one broke!

    The scooter was good initially but within a year of normal use the rear break got broken. Everything else still works fine.

    Be aware that the manufacturer don’t have most of the parts in case they brake. My daughter fell from the scooter and the back plastic came off and it broke, I contacted the manufacturer and the support team said they don’t sell this part and others and that they don’t recommend buying parts elsewhere which means you’ll have to buy a new scooter.

    It gets the job done. Not too fast. This scooter is just for young kids. 7-11 year olds. I think it’s overpriced. I had rewards so I only paid $55 dollars. But I would not pay $200 not worth it.
