Customer Reviews

Wonderful!!!
I bought this at Christmas for my 8 year old grandson. Its everything he always wanted! Needless to say, he loves it and its age appropriate.

Is it worth the extra cost?
It is a fun new idea on an old favorite, but is it worth the extra price? My kids do love it. I bought two, one for my 6 year old daughter and one for my 5 year old son (different colors of course). They can use it as a regular scooter and push along with their foot, or use the kick bar, which can be a little awkward at first. I should tell you that it does not roll backwards because of the gears and is a little heavier than a regular scooter. My kids don't seem to have any problems with it and just pivot off the back wheel when they want to flip around. It is well made, very sturdy (I did try it). I found when I kicked the bar I didn't have great balance but that got better with practice. As for speed, I think it's the same whether you kick or push. I think regular scooters go a little faster because they are lighter. It has a kick stand so you can stand it up, but I found it to be a unreliable unless it is a very flat surface. Over all I think it was worth the extra cost. It is nice to have the choice of propulsion and I think my kids would have been disappointed with anything else. They were very specific as to which one they wanted for Christmas because it looks cool and is just a little bit different.

Great Idea!
My 5 year old loves this scooter. I thought it might take him a few tries to get the rhythm down, but he was sailing along right away. Great idea for a scooter!
