Why should you buy an e-scooter?

There are many reasons to buy an e-scooter and probably the most important one is to save the time! Remember, time is money, and you don’t want to spend every morning or afternoon about 1 hour in traffic jam. E-scooters are safe, fast, compatible and don’t take up much space. All you need is two hands and a charger. By riding an e-scooter you are saving the environment.

Customer's buying guide: e-scooters

Based on the amount of money you are willing to spend, you have many options. But, let’s go through some points that you have to consider when deciding to buy an e-scooter:

  • range (how much do you travel on a daily basis)
  • speed
  • reliability
  • design and portability
  • type of tires and suspension system
  • additional equipment
  • charging time
  • your weight (performance is based on the weight of the rider)

We recommend getting the mid-range ones if it is possible to you to charge it while you are at work. It’s not the worst thing if it happens sometimes that you run out of battery. It still has 2 tires. Based on the experience of the other users, try to avoid unbranded scooters that will rise the risk of getting something wrong at the middle of the ride.
