Trek 3 3-Wheel

For my size (6', 185lb.) this unit works. The distance between the seat & the steering column, the height of the steering & the seat back. I use these as I lift myself up for transfers, so to the strength & structure of the seat back are necessary. I have several units for different purposes, this is the unit I use thru out the normal business day. Oh, I have lost use of most of my body, but I am extremely involved in community activities, especially those to empower those less fortunate and I still manage a significant business.

With continued use as I do, a softer padded seat would greatly improve it.

Lacks mobility due to breathing problems

The lightness of the components makes it easy for just about anyone to assist in the removal or loading. Easy to assemble and easy to use. The compactness of the unit allows it to be stored in a small space, such as the back of my PT Cruiser.

The small wheels makes it necessary to stay on paved or packed surfaces limiting use to indoors or parking lots.

Physical disability, polio as a baby. Limited use of legs, unable to walk any distances.

I am able to place in the back of my vehicle (PT Crusier) with little effort and put the shelf on top so it is out of sight.

Making sure the battery is charged completely. I am on the 3rd charge, the instruction do say it will take 6 - 10 charges to be fully charged.

It is easy to use, load and confortable to operate. The battery charge is fast - much faster than I expected.

The seat is very unconfortable, hard as a rock. I replaced mine with a bass boat seat that works fine and you can still use the arm rests. The charger and/or the scooter should have a LED telling the charger is operating and when the battery is at full charge. The only way you can tell its working is feeling the charger to see if it is getting warm. The instructions should caution the charger is fast and over charge is very possible.

Age 69, bad knees.

It's easy to manuver and fits in the truck for transport. It is easy to fold for travel. All parts except the bottom are light and easy to handle.

The bottom piece is quite heavy. I have a difficult time getting it in and out of my trunk. I usually need help.

I had back surgery a few years ago and I have trouble walking any distance. I also have a siatic nerve problem.

Seems to run beautifully.

The parts are too heavy to take apart and put together.

margaret l. from pasadena, ca

Unable to walk unassisted. It is crutches or the scooter. Love it.

Light weight, easy to remove seat and battery for transport, nice hand holds for lifting, good loooking finish, like the lock for steering.

Seat is hard and quickly becomes uncomfortable. The three wheel version is very tippy if you lean over to pick up something. Could be 6 inches longer for more leg comfort.

Fairly comfortable for such a light scooter. Chair is real good.

I think the batteries could be separated and make it even easier to load. That seems to be the hardest part for my wife to load.
