" ... It came right to my door the day after ordering it, and although the assembly is not quite as easy as it is made out to be, watching the video instructions several times made it easy enough. ... "
" ... Fantastic construction, portability and looks. ... "
" ... So much better than crutches for getting around on broken leg. ... "
" ... It is very sturdy, agile, lightweight (but not flimsy). ... "
" ... Sturdy but light at only 16 pounds. ... Tires were sturdy and didn't mark the floors. ... "
" ... Very stable and well made. ... "
" ... It is very sturdy, folds up into a very small bundle, and the fittings on it are first class. ... "
" ... We kept the fluffy knee pad cover I had bought fo the prior heavy one and it fits perfectly. ... "

" ... The knee pad is comfortable. ... It's not too expensive for keeping weight off my foot, and it certainly beats crutches, but you have to be very careful using it on uneven sidewalks (especially down hill) such as when traveling along city blocks. ... "
" ... I purchased several products to make my life easier after my Achilles surgery. ... "
" ... I did add a 1" high density foam piece to the seat for comfort. ... "
" ... I can pick this up in one hand!!! ... I will also add that I purchased the additional padding for the knee after all the reviews that I heard. ... "
" ... LOVE this, takes the pain off of my foot ... Knee pad is sufficiently comfortable. ... "
" ... HAD SURGERY ON MY FOOD AND NEEDED TO KEEP WEIGHT OFF IT - KNEE SCOOTER WAS VERY HELFUL AND RELATIVELY EASY TO USE ... "
" ... I broke my ankle and had surgery/cast. ... The basket helps keep necessities at hand. ... "
" ... Th knee pad is what keeps this from being perfect. ... "

" ... Easy to put into the passenger side. ... "
" ... Holds up to everyday use. ... "
" ... even bought the sheepskin cover for the seat to make it more comfortable to lean on. ... "
" ... The seat fits snugly once it’s on and the extra cushioning is lovely, and the memory foam cradles my knee and keeps it more firmly on the pad. ... The mounting hardware for the basket does not fit on the GO scooter well - it’s mean for a larger diameter tube. ... We used pieces of craft foam as shims to try to make it fit, and it stayed in place for about a week before it slid down several inches to the joint in the steering stem, and it seems fine where it is now. ... "
" ... A little bit of adjustment and holding up well. ... "
" ... The video helped but I wasn't able to lock all the pieces together myself. ... Luckily, I only have to lower the handle bars for it to fit in the back of my medium sized SUV. ... Pieces lock tightly together and feels secure. ... "
" ... Another consideration if you plan to use a scooter outside much is to get soft rubber or air-filled tires. ... "
" ... I'm 6'3" and 240 pouds and it is sturdy and fits me just fine ... "

" ... It has a super smooth Glide and folds up amazingly small. ... It is also relatively light, and I get it into my van relatively easily. ... But this is the trade-off to have such a lightweight and portable unit. ... "
" ... Well built and very compact ... "
" ... I love that it’s relatively light-weight and portable too. ... "
" ... It was the perfect size for my apt. ... If there is a possibilty that you are going to have to carry things, definitely get a basket. ... "
" ... Folds up very well to fit in the back of my mini Cooper. ... "
" ... It rolls easily down aircraft aisles. ... No hesitation to recommend this for extended travel. ... "
" ... I hung a small bag over the front to carry stuff but it's easy to steer even with one hand on the bar and one hand holding a dinner plate. ... "
" ... The scooter is a nice compact size, and looks sporty, but keep finding that a fixed brake would be very helpful. ... "
