Review about: Turboant
Worth the money!
"I already owned a smaller version of the Turboant Scooter (X7 max), which I loved and which gave me the confidence to buy this scooter for my daughter without regret.
This scooter is top-of-the-line: the best of all the electric scooters I have ridden, including all the brands of street-rental scooters. It is more smoother, and it is lighter and more handy than the X7 Max model. The quality and look of it is great…very modern. The design is nice I really like how it looks it feels sturdy and pretty solid it will last longer than expected for sure. It was very easy to assemble. Love the digital screen, lets you know your battery power as well as the speed you’re going. It also has brake lights and headlights for nighttime and a horn as well. Once you get the hang of the buttons and functions you’ll be cruising around in no time.
The pedal is also wide, the motor is also powerful, and it is able to go up some small hills. It takes a couple of hours to charge but once it’s fully charged, believe it or not, the scooter will go for a good amount of miles before it runs out of a full battery.
The M10 lite is lighter than the X7 max, but it works just fine for my daughter, especially since she sometimes needs to carry it by hand. The pedals aren't any narrower than the X7 max though, so it's comfortable to stand on, and you don't feel like you're standing in a very small space, but rather quite stable. Plus it has almost the same """"footprint"""" as any other scooter, so it can be taken on public transport if needed.
In fact, my daughter is not a little person. On the contrary, her weight is close to that of some men. I hope everyone won't make fun of her here. She weighs 200lbs and is very tall, which attracts attention, so she resists walking slowly down the street by herself. With this situation, it's a little hard to find a reasonably priced scooter that will fit her well and won't break! She can and often does hit 16 mph. (The recommended tire pressure is 38-40 psi (262 -276 kPa) in hot weather and 40-45 psi (276 -310 kPa) in cold weather. The tires need to be inflated to the appropriate pressure range so that The pipe will not burst easily during transportation and riding - this is recommended by customer service).
Like the X7 Max, the M10 lite folds and fits into the trunk of my car pretty easily when my family goes out for a picnic. Folding and lifting it is of course also easy for me without any doubt.
When climbing a hill, Bumps are always inevitable. But she still avoids all bumps if possible.
It can also handle rougher roads fairly well and feels steady under your feet. The ride isn't too rough, just watch your speed if you're not an experienced rider.
In short, her riding it daily has been a breeze, the Turboant M10 lite scooter is the best electric scooter I can find at this price point. Worth the money! The customer service team responded quickly and excellently to any questions I had, and I would rate them 5 stars. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a price-reasonable, comfortable ride, and Entry-level electric scooter with great support!"Review about: Turboant
I'm impressed with its price, quality and construction.
"I've had my turboant x7max electric scooter for over a year now and I'm still impressed with its price, quality and construction. Also bought my wife a smaller one so we could ride together, but I found hers too flimsy and, honestly, a little unsafe compared to turboant.
The scooter came to my house with very impressive out look and packaging! I love its 10-inch wheels and clean, wide pedal (makes it possible to take my dog out on the street), which is very comfortable to ride, and I guess that's what sets it different from other brands in that there's no heavy battery on the pedals (design the battery on the stem, at a higher height), and you don't have to worry about the pedal hitting a bump and affecting the battery.
The brakes are also very smooth compared to cheap scooters. I mostly ride it on the street, but it's super fun to ride on grass too. A little pit? SHH! No problem!
When I first opened it, it looked big and kind of scary.
It's ... than I thought, and I wonder if it's more serious than I was prepared for. But after riding it, I found it felt effortless. Now I fell in love with the charm of this thing. It is the best in the price range, MVP of the year, my favorite.
Control of the shift is easy to achieve, and pressing the brake lever while driving can interrupt battery function and stop quickly, which I think is important for safety. The headlights and taillights are bright and useful for riding at night. I would recommend that everyone wear a helmet to drive it because safety is the most important thing.
Speed, range and battery life are all good. I personally didn't buy it for commuting, just for everyday use. 3rd gear gets you to top speed, but for me 1st and 2nd gears are enough to have fun, just riding around.
My only concern was how to keep it safe/un-stolen in public, so I bought some decorations and also a lock (I was also advised to buy a miniature GPS, which seemed like a good idea).
The new machine was slightly harder to fold and unfold when it arrived. But even without folding, it can fit in my back seat. Folding it can take some getting used to, and I rarely try, requiring pressing the rear fender to lock the two clasps to each other after lowering the upright bar.
I found that its weight and size had an effect on its stability. It's not a problem for me.
In fact, my throttle broke in recent use, bought a new one, and turboant sent me black one (looks like an upgraded one), this seems to be firmer, feel slightly better than the red one, but I still prefer the red, it looks more energetic and not dull.
The battery can still be charged and used, but apparently the range is not as good as the new machine, which I believe is normal wear, and is not consistent with the neg reviews I've read on website. In any case, practice makes sense. On such a cheap scooter, is there anything that needs special care and thinking? Absolutely no.
I like this type of machine so much that I recommend it to anyone who needs one. We were surprised it didn't cost more than $500 and it's worth it."
