Excellent—July 29, 2025
The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using this Gotrax electric scooter for a little while now and I really like it! It’s easy to ride, super comfortable thanks to the seat, and the big tires make the ride feel smooth even on bumpy streets. The speed is just right — not too fast, not too slow — and the battery lasts enough for me to run errands or go around town without worrying. I also love the little basket in the back, it's perfect for carrying a bag or groceries. It feels strong and well made, and I didn’t have any trouble putting it together. If you're looking for a fun and practical way to get around, I definitely recommend it! Read more

this is really a decent basic scooter. at first, it was struggling up hills and i was disappointed but after putting some air in the tires, it makes it up pretty steep hills with no problems. i use this to commute to and from work and i’ve got no complaints about it. it handles well and is very easy to assemble and to use. the seat is also really comfortable. the basket is super shallow but you can buy a middle basket if you need more room for stuff. i’m certainly glad i bought it!

This is a quite excellent product. The large tires are one of the things I like about it, and they also have shock absorption. This shock absorption is an indispensable feature for navigating city roads. It allows me to drive it with confidence. It will be much safer. Secondly, the small basket is also very convenient for me. When I go to the supermarket to buy some things, I can put them in the small basket instead of hanging the bags on the handle. It will make me not lose my balance. Thirdly, its pedal-assisted seat allows me to carry heavier loads (such as a box of water). Previously, when I went out to buy water, I had to carry it on my shoulders or in my hands, which was very tiring and heavy. Now, with this device, my hands are free. It's black, which is my favorite classic style. The foldable and portable design is essential for someone living in an urban environment like me. The driving pleasure is also of utmost importance to me; it feels very smooth and there is minimal noise. Read more

These are my initial impressions of the Gotrax FLEX Electric Scooter -- 400W Motor. I purchased this to replace my vehicle for all the 1-3 mile trips I make. I also wanted to get something fun. I haven't ridden a bike since I was a teenager (it's been decades) so I decided I wanted something cheap. This was $300 + tax after discounts and Amazon rewards. For that price, it was a no-brainer. Assembly was pretty easy and the battery didn't take long to charge since it was partially pre-charged from the factory. My initial test ride I was a bit wobbly. I'm generally pretty bad with balance, so your mileage may vary. Once I got used to it, riding was a breeze. I haven't measured speed yet, but I suspect it goes as fast as advertised. Range? No clue yet. will update if it is notably different. I rode around the neighborhood and to the grocery store, a good 40 minutes of riding before I had to come back home for unrelated reasons. It did great. As far as power to go up hills, I am a 6' tall man that weighs 200lbs. I live in a really hilly area. It could tackle most hills just fine. It does slow down. There are two really steep hills it couldn't go up. I may include a picture of these hills later, but they are really up there, so that isn't surprising. You can always push yourself up by using it like a regular scooter. Overall I'm pretty satisfied. After all, this is a $300-$350 scooter! It includes a phone mount and a basket. The basket can hold up to 39.6lbs of stuff. The only drawback that I've noticed so far is that it is not water proof. The manually very clearly warns you of this and says that riding in water/wet weather could make the tires slip, causing an accident and will void the warranty. The handle can be folded so it can be stored easily. It also is not all that heavy, though it is heavier than a bicycle. I am able to carry it into my house without assistance. Assembly took probably about a half an hour. It is easy to assemble, the phone mount was the only thing that consumed a bunch of time. If you are looking for a good entry level scooter or e-bike, this is the one to get. It is cheap, fun to ride, and doesn't take long to learn. 4/5. Read more
