It gives my brother more independence.
It is very easy to load and unload for travel. We used the scooter when we when on vacation.
We have not discover any weakness as of yet. He is getting used to the control.

My brother is 62 years old and has lost the ability to walk more than a few feet. He uses this scooter to get around the house and town.
Great scooter at a great price.
More leg room, good speed.
Does not turn as sharply as my Pride Go-Go.

75 year old male. Suffers from back trouble which makes it difficult to walk or stand for long periods of time.
Second of two purchased!
Battery life, ease of use, maneuverability, comfort, ease of use when traveling, styling, and adjustability!
No headlight, but we purchased magnetic phone holders, which we mounted on the tiller handle. We just turn on our phone flashlight and use as a headlight! No drain on the battery life and it works great!

Purchased for my 43 year old daughter who has Rheumatoid Arthritis and Plantar Faciitis. I also purchased one for myself, 63 year old who also has RA.
Best thing I ever did for myself!
Recently took my scooter on an Alaska Cruise. Only had to charge it twice those nine days! It lasted through me cruising around all over the ship and for all excursions. I was so pleased with its performance getting on and off the ship, getting to and from all the excursions, and sightseeing and shopping in the ports. It never even went below a full charge on the indicator, even though I only charged it twice the whole 9 days. I had no problem navigating around the crowds on board or on shore. I can't wait to take it to Disney World and Disneyland! I feel confident in it being able to handle the parks from "rope drop" (park opening) to park close. It is so easy to maneuver, too. I was even able, with a little practice, to navigate the narrow halls, pull up to my state room door, insert my "sea card", push open my door with the front of my scooter, and pull it right into my room, all without getting off the scooter! I also purchased one for my daughter who also has Rheumatoid Arthritis and Plantar Fasciitis. She used hers the whole cruise, as well. We never had one bit of trouble out of either scooter! We were also able to load both scooters in the back of the van, along with five people, and everyone's luggage, to get to the airport. This has given me back my freedom to come and go as I please, and to visit places I was no longer able to navigate without being pushed in a wheelchair. Now I can take off and see the sights, or shop, without having to drag someone else along to push me around. It disassembles easily, and I can put it into the trunk of my Chevy Cruze and take off on my own. I am free to roam again! I see going to concerts, museums, art galleries, theme parks, shopping malls, and so much more in my future.
No headlight. But I installed a magnetic phone holder on the tiller handle, so I just turn the flashlight on my phone on. Problem solved, and no drain on my scooter battery!

I am 63 years old with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Both knees are bone on bone, making walking any distance or standing for long periods impossible.
Great travel scooter!
Easy to put together and fits in trunk of my car.
I wish it had lights and beeped when backing up, otherwise no complaints.

Multiple Sclerosis, difficulty walking, use cane or rollator for short distances, however this Scooter is so much more helpful for longer distances.
Good scooter for the price.
Lighter weight than our Go-Go Sport.
The battery is the heaviest part - and a bit heavier than we were expecting.

78 year old male with problems walking due to a broken left ankle that did not heal properly.
I love it! It is the best helper I could have asked for.
The ability to move the seat up and down and go with either front or rear wheel drive.
Cannot think of any at this time.

I am 83 with Parkinson's Disease, I have Spinal Stenosis and live alone in a four-story house.
Spent hours at an amusement park (with hills), battery did...
Purchased the "Extended" battery. After a day at the amusement park (where a significant time was 'parked' at rides), but going up and down many hills (many very long and steep - 6-8 degrees) the battery only dropped 1 green light. The battery lasted much better than expected, and the scooter handled the hills without struggling.
The scooter manuals had some mistakes. There are no extra features (lights, extra storage compartments, etc), but the price was well within reason for what we got.

I am in my 50's and 150 pounds, disabled, and cannot walk long distances.

Easy to use.
Have to make wide turns.

White glove delivery put it together - but I still need instructions to break it apart for easier travel.
Good little scooter that can cover a lot of distance.
Ease of assembly and disassembly - love the 15 mile range.
Small seat.
gerard l. from jacksonville, fl
I use the scooter to go on trips where a lot of walking is involved because my hips hurt. Orlando is a good place and we go often.
The scooter is very helpful in me being able to keep up...

I'm a 62 year old retired meat market manager. Back problems keep me from walking very far. With the Scout it makes trips easier and faster.
Pleasantly surprised with my new scooter!
This scooter is much faster than I thought it would be and my battery lasts very long. I love riding it!
I am still trying to get use to putting it together.
