Razor E200 Electric Scooter for Kids Ages 13 - 8 Pneumatic Tires 200-Watt Motor Up to 12 mph

I bought this for my son hoping it would last him for years. The quality is outstanding, it's solid, fast, and the battery life is great. Right now, he only uses it on the lowest speed setting and with me right beside him. It's more scooter than he needs, but I feel safe knowing it's built so well. I'm confident it will be perfect for him as he gets older. It's a fantastic product, but for younger kids, parents should be aware that it's very powerful and requires strict safety measures.

We bought this scooter for our 10-year-old daughter and she loves it. This was her first electric scooter, so it took her a few minutes to get used to using the throttle... it accelerates quickly, so it will take off on you if you aren't used to it. That said, she got the hang of it relatively quickly, and she now enjoys a new found "kid freedom" and she zips through the neighborhood. I have to admit, I almost wish I was small enough to ride it myself! (Warning: the scooter has a weight limit for a reason... heed it!) Pros: Charges quickly; great tires for what is essentially a toy; not too fast, not too slow; 40 minutes run time (some may list "only" 40 minutes as a Con, but that's plenty of run time for my kid) Cons: Turning radius seems a little wide; brake/throttle cables run a bit too close to the front tire Overall: Pros far outweigh the cons; great buy Read more

Now I have all 3 sizes. I had originally bought the E150 and the E300 for my grand kids. The E150 has an air tire in front but has a solid hard tire in back making it pretty noisy and bumpy riding for my grand daughter. I finally got around to getting her this E200 which does have the air tires in both front and back making it much smoother riding. Size wise the E200 is right in the middle between the E150 and the E300. It has the same size tires as the E150's front tire (the E300 has bigger tires). It's definitely faster than the E150 so my grand daughter has to be a bit more careful riding it (she was quite the little dare devil on the E150). So far I'm pretty happy with it. My grand daughter loves it and she has the scrapes and bruises to prove it. Lets put it this way. Your kids are going to crash on these things from time to time so be prepared. Same thing on bicycles, just part of growing up. My grand kids go through the ritual of "gearing up" before riding which is putting on elbow and knee pads, along with the helmet and fingerless gloves (also good to have full length pants on). Only way to scooter to keep them protected. Read more

I'm a grown woman - about 130 lbs - and I use this for part of my commute cuz I'm lazy as heck. All told, I love this thing! It's really fun to ride around on and I get compliments on it everywhere I go (and I know those people are so jealous lol). However, I have noticed a few things that one might want to know about ahead of time. These aren't really even problems, which is why I'm not docking the product any stars for them - just information that I figure would be good for buyers to have: 1) The throttle doesn't really have a variable speed; it's pretty much just on or off, so when you let go of the throttle, be prepared to lurch a bit as the engine will rather suddenly stop, drastically slowing your roll (unless you're going downhill). Sometimes the same goes for starting - if the conditions are right, it may try to take off from under you if you aren't prepared for a sudden increase in speed. 2) In the description it says speeds up to 12 mph. Thus far I've topped out at about half that (6 mph, as in 1 mile in ten minutes). I have only been riding in the winter so far though, and that speed is what I got on "warmer" (40s F) days - on really cold (20-30s F) days I get to about 4 mph (1 mile in 15 minutes). So I suspect I'll get higher speeds in the spring and summer. And of course I'm assuming someone who weighs less, or isn't routinely carrying 10 lbs of computer with them, will get higher speeds. 3) Be very aware of how low to the ground this bad boy is. Slow down for speed bumps or you'll bottom out, and be aware of bumps in the road/sidewalk. 4) Allow yourself plenty of time to slow down for stops. It's got a brake, but if you try to brake too quickly it'll throw you more readily than a bike will (but you'll probably just clumsily jump off, rather than flying over the handle bars). 5) It is heavier than it looks and pretty awkward to carry. Just keep that in mind if you're going to be doing a lot of transferring like I do (getting it onto and off of city buses, carrying it up and down stairs). Read more
