You are asking people to pay cash for a scooter; when you can get a decent scooter thru your insurance which if they had 2 X insurances they won’t pay a penny. You also did not mention when you pay cash for a scooter you will have to pay cash for all repairs and batteries and they run around $400 as each scooter has 2x batteries. When you go thru insurance all repairs and batteries are covered.
I’ve owned several scooters and found the less expensive smaller ones to be extremely uncomfortable on anything but a smooth surface, but the best one by far that I’ve owned is the Pride Executive, it’s a bit bigger and the springing is excellent it’s like night and day to those smaller scooters.
Exactly. Full time users need comfort, including foot room, a comfortable seat and decent suspension. All of the ones shown are only any good for occasional use.
Some of us have so many stairs to get into the house that the small ones are the only ones we can independently bring up the stairs. The travel pro keeps me independent but I have to add a cushion.
This was helpful but pricing should've been included. We are talking about people on a fixed income for the most part. Also, why wasn't battery life included?
In the description section, there is a link for each scooter shown where you can get every single detail about each.
Does Medicare pay for a scooter
You should have put all this on there because us living on disability under the price of one some of make less than one price of the scooter in 4 or more months. I would love to have one but I can't afford it. So you should put it from the beginning you don't take disabled insurance of any kind and not even disabled veteran can afford this and need it. Thanks for getting our hopes up.
@@deborahcantrell7617 My Dr. wrote a prescription for a scooter but Medicare gave me an electric wheelchair instead. They didn't think I would be able to use a scooter. I'm not comfortable using the wheelchair. When I was left with some money from inheritance I bought a scooter and it is much easier to operate. I have a degenerative nerve condition that makes the movements of my hands "iffy" and the steering on the scooter is much easier for me to control. If you would like a scooter ask your Dr. to write a prescription for it and hope Medicare will honor that choice for you.
@@deborahcantrell7617 yes Medicare pays for scooters and if you had secondary insurance you won’t pay a penny. Also; when it comes for repairs your Insurance will also pay for all repairs.
That should have been your Dr. who wrote the visit notes … if he wrote good notes your insurance would have most likely would have approved your scooter.
As a person who can not walk without a walker there is only one of these that works for me...the number 4 on this list, the Buzz Around Ex. There is no way I could ever take apart or lift any of these scooter parts...most people who really need a scooter could not. Maybe it is easy for those who have problems with mobility because of breathing or heart problems but not for those of us who have problems that make normal walking impossible. I do appreciate seeing the comparisons and descriptions for people needing to choose a scooter based on their needs.
I want to buy one this year. Very convenient ride from my apartment going to my workplace
My friend George was riding one of these and was attacked by a group of senior citizens with hickory canes. Oh the humanity!
I just love my scoozy. My off road scoot.
My wifes Triaxe beats all of those . It fits easiy into the trunk of her Camry. Goes up to 35 miles on a charge, 12 mph top speed, headlamp, horn, parking brake, illuminated bbattery level meter, and a rear pull out luggage holder. It is, however limited to hard surfaces.
Cost
The Pride Travel Pro is the best , plus you can add so much to it to make your life easier. I changed out the front basket and added a nice hitch basket that Carrie’s many shopping bags. Light enough to carry up the stairs when disassembled
I work in UK charity and do repairs to many wheelchairs, and these type of chairs with removable packs all use two small batteries which are still old school types I.e swell up if overcharged. We have replaced so many faultydue to this issue and none use new lith-ion or newer technologies. Distance and being left on charge or auto switch off when charged are one of the most important. We are now selling fold up chairs that have lith-ion packs in sides and pull out and be swapped, bigger wheels, and longer range
This Metro Mobility USA Patriot scooter is great for people who can't walk long distances and is easy to drive in close spaces. Great top!

Funny how everyone is saying we bought a mobility scooter in Amazon from China. Huh? All of these scooters came from one manufacturer in China. I have a friend who works in this manufacturing company in China and they made all of those scooters including the top brands. You are all fooled!
For the scooters that disassemble it would be helpful to know the weight of the heaviest piece.
Look at the diagrams for taking the scooter apart, they show the weights.
You know a lot of these scooters are the same there just sold under different companies names I have the first one they showed but it is sold under the name E wheels and it’s a peace of crap for one it’s to low so it’ll get stuck on anything the seat is made of poor quality plastic so it broke just 3 months in to owning it and I only weigh 135 lbs and it’s slow as a turtle top speed is supposed to be 5mph but I think mine maybe 3 to 4 mph until you go to turn then I think it’ll do 7to8 mph cause it will throw you off in a turn. So do your homework before you purchase any of these small scooters
The one problem with these is they are difficult to secure in a transit bus. There are no securing points. Ask your supplier before purchase .
-You really need to add comments about considering how bendable your knees and ankles may be especially if one is deciding on a three or four-wheel scooter. Although they may not be as stable; a three-wheel scooter with a swivel set will be much easier to get on if you have a broken leg or very stiff joints. Thank you for all the great info and especially all your videos.
I've used scooters many times from rental places, and a few of the things I've learned that aren't mentioned in thisvideo are: if you have difficulty bending down, you probably won't be able to take your scooter apart or put it back together without help, because some of the pieces have to go into the bottom section. Also, unless you can get on the ground and up easily, I would look for one that you can charge on steering column by the key. I have one now that only charges directly in the battery. It's fairly easy to remove the battery and take it into your room to charge and then snap it back in. If this is hard to do, however, I found that mine had a connecting cord that has pins in it that have o be lined up correctly with the battery charging slot. I never could manage this, so had to always get help. Another issue with the steering column that has the handles that stick out like a bike does is that unless you are thin, when you are getting on and off, it's easy to accidentally hit the lever that moves the scooter forward or backward, which can cause you to fall asthe scooter scoots but you are still part-way on it. I'd recommend the handles that wrap around the movement controls--the ones that make a C-shape off the column rather than a T. I love my scooter that I bought at a bargain price from a local store. It's allowed me to attend events that I'd otherwise be unable to enjoy because it's too hard for me to get around without some aid.

You didn't mention what scooter you have?
@@rollzolo I'm not sure, it's some kind of cheap Chinese-made scooter that was on at a bargain price. It's worked okay for me, though.
Could you share what kind of scooter your wife is using?
Mobile Life Atto made in Israel beats them all in comfort, reliability and storage capacity. It folds up into one 30 kg unit that fits easily into the smallest car trunk or detachable two pieces. I have mine for eight years constant use on paved and unpaved surfaces. It uses one battery pack with recharging on or off board. Contact me for more details or Mobile Life directly.
I guess you have to be a US citizen to have heard of any of them. In NZ, the most common brands are Invacare, Pride, Shoprider and Hartway, with Merits being relatively new to the market. All of the scooters you showed are "tiddlers" suitable only for teens or very petite adults. Here, we like bigger, rugged scooters, able to handle rougher terrain, with longer battery life, and travel distance.
And a scooter in NZ, advertised for $4800, actually cost $675direct from China,NZ merchants are ripping people of as fast as they can
They are suck because you got a break them down to put them in your vehicle and when you’re handicap what the hell do you have time to break down shit like this it’s really stupid
the one thing i have found is no matter where it's made if it has plastic wheels it is only good for even flat surfaces and the price from china is 1/4 of the shop price order direct as i did even with shipping and taxes still almost half shop price
#1 I went back to the beginning and did not see any prices. #2 What is the thoughts about Walmart scooters? I’m thinking of getting one just to run to the corner mart, the bank or the doctors and they have them for like $700-$900
Are you kidding me? With what I get from Social Security, my Medicare and supplement insurance I can't even think about a scooter for mobility. much less make one.
Must not be familiar with daily scooter use. No mention of maintainability, parts availability, docking devices, accessories, ground clearance, ease of charging (height of connection), etc.
I bought one that works fine, but the only way to charge it is by plugging into the battery. The cord has to be aligned perfectly to connect it because it has pins which have to fit into the right slots on the battery. And, while the battery is removeable, it is heavy and I have to bend down to get it out and to see the front of the battery. I can't physically do this, so I have to get someone to help me. The most practical solution for this is to buy one where the charging port is up on the steering column. I didn't know this, but now I do.
Pacific Blue: I agree with you about motor scooters. Unfortunately I have to use one. But I would like one of the ones easier to handle. The one I have is too heavy for me to lift because the battery is so heavy. So I have had to pay for a lift to be fitted. Furthermore, the newer ones are way out of my price range. It's impossible for me to even think about getting a more modern one. My income is less than £800 per month so after the more essential have been paid for there isn't any left to save for a new scooter. At £1000 or more it's kust a pipe dream..
Battery problem. Come on mate what’s the answer
It is quite difficult on a fixed budget, which I completely agree with you. & then, it can't be used during the wet winters. The more months of the winters than other dry months!
I got an inexpensive one via payment plans, so I'll still have to pay every.month that I can't ride it.
Gracias por El dato

Medicare turned me down! I have inoperable hip arthritis!
They advertise a FOUR wheeler, But demo a THREE wheel one.
Scooters are not automobiles. They are a assistive device for you to go for a walk at the same pace. I would never want someone with dementia on the sidewalk doing 15 miles an hour into me. 5 mph is a fast walk speed. I have ridden several at the museum and it is a lifesaver for us that tire easily. As far as shopping well a quick item is about it. Now at my store I can go shop and have it delivered after I have chosen my stuff with a employee assistant. I am not worn out. I still excercise but it just makes it easier.
Is this the best you could find, they all look a bit weak and feeble to me. The one I have is much heavier and faster than these.
You always see the ones with the worst driving ability wanting to go faster and compete with others. I'll run around your scooter all day, pops
I’ve never been able to take apart my scooters, then lift them into or out of a vehicle. I’m disabled.
I want to buy this chair
Someone should design and make a folding desk/market stall which attatches to a mobility scooter so the disabled can drive to the local market and trade crafts without needing a helper
X favor la dirección.. gracias
Where ? in the UK there is almost nowhere where it is legal to use these.
Do u take payments
Handicap really nee thi in India target the Indian audience...they can't afford.... make it possible for poor and be the first one
I never realised there was a scooter hierarchy in life... why is everything a competition?
Be careful buy buying from Pride manufacturers, I purchased a $9k AUD Pride Wrangler, no manual was supplied not even a mirror. After the 7 weeks right hand front tyre chewed out. Found that the steering arm was not properly set up. It now doesn't go after 13 months...no error codes, no beeps...no support as warranty has expired...but scooter has only done 79hrs ??. Should there be a year Warranty or should there be an Hourly Warranty. Any ways no support here in Australia with American brands for Quality and support.....They lead us to think "it's now your problem" ......
What's the cost???
Great video 🤘
Glad you enjoyed it
It's too bad you don't mention price ,but then you would lose quite a few customers.
It was shown at the beginning of the video
Everyone of those scooters have seats that are too shallow (measuring front to back) and the back-rests are too low to give any decent back support.
Zwheres the 8 mph scoots you got to get there in time
Who can afford these scooters. I was looking at these around 800 hundred and up. I stopped looking !!!
I’m not buying a scooter till it’s super charged or turbocharged get back to me there to slow we are not dead yet 😉😉😉😉
My Pride Baja Raptor 2 does 14 mph, plenty fast enough for sidewalks.

Interesting up to 1:08 then an ad killed my interest.
why no prices?
Is there any shop selling in bahrain ar saudy Arabia
How much is the medical scooter please
Check the links in the description to get the current prices in your local currency 👍
Why only mention seniors?
Those basic mobility scooters may get you from a to b but for anything else they're useless! There's no coverage, no protection from the elements, no room for shopping etc. They're a total waste!!!!
Links broken.
Crap, all of them.
1) why should you be confined to 4 mph or similar, just because you might have balance problems
2) easy transport my "donkey".... do you expect the users to disasemble them? Parts of 30 lbs. There are entite vehicles of that weight (and snail speed)
3) outdoor? Where? Certainly not on the beach or in forrests......
There are countless better options out there. Travelscoot, Efoldi and more, far lighter and still slow as hell
L3WO is not production ready yet, but is already meeting 2 of 3 (working on the offroad part) and an expected sales price on par with a standard e-scooter

Anyone try buying these slash priced scooters costing around £60. that I keep seeing adverised? They appear to have all the features that these ones have
There's a lot of the then on Facebook from places like that everybody I know he stayed for one said they never came and they just lost their money so in England our laws don't seem to protect us from there I don't know about America you might have more protection now
I want it in India
And what about anyone over 80kg?
What you need to include in these descriptions is? These scooters are only useful outside of the home for going around your supermarket once you drove it there in your car first! after that all of these wouldnt pull the bs out of a politicians ear!
I have a 4 wheel I don't like it no foot room ALOHA

Did you actually ride any of those scooters?

All wheelchair and scooter are way to slow.

Fast
Battery what’s the story why haven’t you said any thing about it smells suspicious
So your not referring to UK products...
Yet you're mixing US/English terms mph range ect...
Make your mind up if you wish to be helpful.
Everything is in miles per hour and pounds which are both US metrics, mate.

Firstly, I HATE people who refer to customers as GUYS. Hi Guys! (Stick that in your ear.) "Hello, and welcome to. . ." is far more classy. Show some respect.
