Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter for Kids Ages 13+ - 9" Pneumatic Tires, Removable Seat, Up to 15 mph and 40 min of Ride Time, For Riders up to 220 lbs

Your scooter questions answered: I really like this scooter, especially for the price. I understand why some complain, but there are very good reasons why the manufacturer did what they did. Yes the batteries are very old school, and you cannot quickly change them on a ride. But those “quick insert” lithium bike batteries cost $350 to $1000 each. The batteries in this scooter cost less than $20 each (there are 2 of them). Scooter has big tires so I figured it might work on some dirt roads in the desert that the skinny tire scooters would not. But this scooter has no climbing ability so we will see if it works out. This scooter is small enough that it actually fits well in my small van RV where space is precious. Pros • Replacement batteries are very cheap to replace, less than $20 each. • Quality seems very good, time will tell. I WILL keep this review updated. • They claimed up to 40 minutes run time, I got 45 minutes…nice. • Even though the throttle is on only, it is not that bad (not enough power to make much of a difference). • Speed seems very adequate, (but I did not determine how fast the top speed was). • I called the Razor help line twice and got through very quickly and got excellent help. • For a scooter this has fairly large tires making it ride smoother for rougher roads. • Comes with a removable seat so you can use this as a typical scooter or as sort of a small bike. • Easy to assemble, maybe took me 15 minute with no problems. • Holds up to 220 pounds, this will fit most people. Cons • Throttle is on only, it is not variable. • Charge controller is not a smart controller, the light will turn from red to green, making you think it is a smart controller and fully charged, but not so, the lights are meaningless. This will be very confusing to most people. • Slows down horribly at the slightest hill, most hills you will be walking. • The scooter uses old type lead acid batteries which take up to 12 hours to recharge. And they add a lot of weight to the scooter. • You cannot quick change the batteries on a ride so you can go further. But they are easy to change when if they wear out, just like a car battery. • Hard to put air in the rear tire. They provide an extension but it has no threads for a normal pump. Conclusion: For the price they are charging, and the perceived quality, I think this scooter is a definite 5 star item even though I gave it several cons. Just the battery alone for my electric bike costs 2 times the price of this complete scooter. Any questions just ask, I will answer if I can. I will keep this review updated as needed.

I got this for my 110 lbs wife to ride to local gym and athletic park. It's a very fast little scooter for her, felt as though it was hitting speed of 18 mph for her body weight and took her by surprise at first. She's only 5'2" so she's already on her toes when seated, so keep that in mind if you are getting this for person under 5 feet, their feet won't reach the ground and it can get dangerously fast. The motor is not too noisy, the chain doesn't rattle like some reviewers had mentioned. The throttle is not adjustable, it's just one fast speed so be prepared for that jolt of power. Really wish the throttle had adjustable power, would like to cruise steady at a slower speed instead of the jerkiness of a one-speed throttle. I myself who weigh 168 lbs found this scooter to be quite a powerful little scooter and perfect for my size (I'm 5'8"). It can pull me up a slight slope but no major hill climbing (only for my petite wife, it can haul her) just doesn't have the power. My wife loves this scooter, prefers electric over her old smokey 2- stroke engine from her teen years. There's no battery monitor so you need to keep track of your usage. It can cruise about 6-8 miles per 12-hour charge depending on your weight. This scooter is so slim and compact that we can lock it next to her car in her carport, plenty of space for her to still get in her car. We bought it for $209 for gray, got a basket $23 and Valet My Stick lock for $20. Small investment for us to go green in our neighborhood, very happy with our purchase.

This would be a 5 star rating 1) if it had a continuous speed throttle allowing for continuous, smooth low speeds, and 2) more power under challenges like hills, and 3) if the battery lasted longer. Apart from these three notable limitations, this scooter has served me very well so far. At 49 years of age and 125 pounds, I fall far out into the 13 and up category ;), so that should be factored into my evaluation of it performance to some degree. Also the purpose at this time of this scooter for me, is mobility as I recover from a foot surgery. It is not inherently safe or particularly intended for this purpose, but as an active person very accustomed to riding gas scooters, gas motorcycles, and all types of bicycles, I am comfortable using it this way. I use to it from the parking lot at work, to, and up into my office. But that one reason the 15 mph single speed is difficult to get used to and always results in a compromised ride, at least when not riding it for recreational purposes. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS BEFORE YOU PURCHASE; I WAS NOT. I have to on and off the throttle to mimic a steady low speed (which I think is somewhere rather high, maybe around 5 mph?) and even then, a very slow speed (3mph or less) is very hard to get and cannot be maintained. So to go slowly you surge forward (not a very jerky surge, but still not smooth) then let go and glide down to the speed you really want. I do manage to use it safely, but for my purposes a continuous speed throttle would be extremely preferable. If this was not a temporary situation, I would invest in upgrading to that which I noticed is available on ebay. The lack of great power is not that important to me now for my current situation, but when I am better it will influence whether I keep it or sell it. I have tested it on varying terrain here and there such as hills, and light off-road and was disappointed in its power and acceleration under challenge. But my background is having all motorized licensed vehicles; I have never owned a battery-run scooter so I am probably comparing apples and oranges to some degree. As far as the limited battery time, I have never run out of battery to know how long it will last, because due to my infirm status I charge it compulsively. However I can tell by charging time that the 5-20 minutes at a time that I do use it is sucking a fair bit of juice. The HUGE pluses for me given my situation, especially when comparing this to the other sizes of razor scooter, is having the optional seat (plenty comfortable and sizable for my purposes/distances) and the option to kick and glide. If I am in a tight area, or in an area in the building around other people that is flat, I can use the scooter by pushing off with my good foot, with no throttle. Not all of the razor scooters have this feature for whatever reason. Lifting 45 pounds in and out of my car everyday has not been a problem for me, as I am able to grab it easily and move it quickly enough without burdening either foot too much. It has unbalanced weight like the old tube TVs so if you choose the right places to grab it, it cooperates better. So this review may not be very helpful for those shopping for a scooter for a child, but this is how it has served me. It was an impulse purchase, and I feel lucky it is serving me as well as it is given that. When I was on crutches, it was invaluable and I found a way to secure the crutches on the handlebars and they cleared the throttle completely and left the brake side completely unhindered. Again, it was not intended for this, and there would be consequences if something were to happen, but it didn't and there weren't. Then when I was surprised with the sentence of 4 weeks in a huge walking boot, though I was off crutches, the scooter was even better for getting me longer distance more quickly (for one thing my foot had better protection). The platform on this thing is sizable enough at least for my body size to rest a huge walking boot comfortably (or both feet) with room to spare. I can sit towards the back, middle or front of the seat too to some degree. One other thing for people of all ages and circumstances to note: the ON/OFF SWITCH IS INCONVENIENTLY PLACED out of sight by the charging plug on the side below the platform/deck: VERY EASY TO LEAVE ON!! It is also a little hard to reach from the seat or even from standing if you are in a surgical walking boot. But despite its notable limitations, overall this scooter has been GREAT to have. Two days door to door with prime and assembles in 15 minutes or less: cannot beat that!

Build Very sturdy. Tires came filled. Built time 30 minutes. The manual didn't make it obvious which direction the seat goes. I looked at a picture online to figure that out. The rest was intuitive. Came with the necessary Allen wrench to connect the steering column. It did not come with a screw driver for installing the seat post. Initial charge time I rode it 1 minute, then charged it while installing the seat. The battery was charged before I figured that out, so it came charged I guess. Ride Experience The throttle needs work. It turns about 20 degrees before it tells the motor to run. After that, you can probably rotate another 5 degrees to feel like it is fully engaged. I can't rotate beyond the 25 degrees or so. It is easy to bump from accelerating to not accelerating which is more like automatic deceleration unless you are going downhill. So if you don't want to go full speed all the time (to conserve power), you have to go full speed 3/4 of the time and for the rest of the time use zero acceleration (which is really deceleration). It results in a very stop-and-go experience. Also, because the acceleration is not variable, it results in a jerk every time. I don't think I can feel confident putting one of my kids on my lap to ride around the block, although I let them stand on it to go around... My last 3/4 mile was super slow. I was assisting it by kicking. I think it is higher than a normal scooter. I ended up hitting my ankle against a nut or the kickstand. I am bleeding now. I don't advise kick-assisting this once it is basically dead. Comfort The seat is not a bike seat and the seat mount is not typical for a bike, so I can't upgrade that component even though it is uncomfortable for me. I am 5 for 3 inches tall, in case that helps you. I have to learn to deal with the seat, stand on a jerky platform, or return it. My wife said she was fine with the seat. But for a seat to work, I expect "This seat is awesome." Anything less and it isn't worth it when you can just stand and go farther by removing the weight of the seat apparatus. Max Speed It goes pretty fast for an inexpensive scooter. I felt like I never reached a top speed going downhill. I reached stop signs before I could feel it stop accelerating downhill. Going uphill, it feels like you don't accelerate. Range I went 4.7 miles. Half the time I weighed 185 with a kid standing on it with me. The hills here are what I would think a flat city would have. Hill Ascension It is gutless on steep hills, even if they are short unless you have momentum. For example, it has trouble going 10 feet on my driveway that raises 1 foot in the first 5 feet. Conclusion This is not what I was hoping for in the medium-high end Razor model. Unless you can't get onto a bike, I'd advise getting a decent $800+ electric bike. It is going to last longer, go farther, be stronger, and transform your travel experiences (and pull larger loads) than this. I never had one, but I've tested one and it could take hills way better. The ride is smoother on a bike, too, due to wheel size and shocks I suppose. Or you can invest $300 in cryptocurrency and buy a motorcycle in a few years...

My twin 12 year olds are the envy of the neighborhood! They love it and all of the kids in the neighborhood try to bribe them to get a ride. They never seem to tire of it. They have had it for a month now (since Christmas) and they want to ride it every day. I can get them to do their chores and homework with no problem as long as I promise to allow them to ride their scooters when they are done. They can't seem to get enough of these scooters. Scooters work very well. Minimal assembly required and they are good to go! They charge their scooters at night. Even though the price went up during the Christmas season they were still worth it for the large smiles I saw on Christmas Day. And the hours of enjoyment my kids are still getting out of them.

I have had the scooter for a week now. First let me say it is so cute it's beyond words. I got this because I am disabled and last year I lost a leg, which means I can no longer walk. My options were to spend the rest of my life in a wheel chair (sucks big time), or buy a electric scooter. I built a gas powered 3 wheel scooter about 25 years ago, but the stores wont let me drive it in the store. A Raskell scooter costs more than I paid for my Ford Expedition. That ain't going to happen on my Army disability income. The Razor E300s was only a couple hundred bucks. But I didn't know it was going to be soooooo cute. Now the stores have a temper tantrum at 13 miles per hour. So I just ordered a variable speed controller, a 9 tooth motor sprocket and an 80 tooth wheel sprocket from Walmart for around $15. That will reduce my maximum speed to about 8 miles per hour and the the speed controller will let me go from about 2 to 8 mph. Which should not cause such a ruckus in the stores. A 75 year old man in a police uniform with no legs can get away with a lot of things a retarded 6 year old in a crash helmet would never dream of. Did I mention I put trainer wheels on the sides of the rear? That way it don't tip over when I stop, (been there done that). I have motor cycles but I have to make some fiberglass legs to ride them. A fiberglass leg costs about $20 to make, the American Malpractice Association wants $10,000 for each. And I can make a better one that looks and works like real. When I make the legs, I wont need the trainer wheels any more. My gas scooter is wayyyyyyy over powered, Geared down 30 to one it burns rubber on dry pavement and pulls a 30 degree slope without putting a load on the motor, it goes about 15 mph. First time I rode the gas scooter in town was during a 4th of July parade where I lost control and crashed into the fire truck knocking their brand new paint job off the front bumper. Some people get mad over the smallest of things. Next time in town I will be on my new Razor 300, that should make everybody happy?

I am a guy who will only purchase something after reading a good review. And I have to admit, the reviews on this were good. The questions / answers that were asked also gave it good marks...but sadly the reviews were good...but in my opinion, the product is sub par in some cases. Here is my breakdown... (seat not used yet so this reflects standing version only and 16 hour charge done which is 4 hours then recommended) Quality: Very high quality, feels heavy and well made. Great construction with strong welds. Feels very sturdy and holds my weight great. I'm 6'00" and 169 lbs. Appearance: Again very good. It's simple. Wheels: Good thick pneumatic wheels. You have to pump them to 12 psi per the warning on the instructions prior to riding it. Driving / Power: This is my major issue and was a concern prior to buying it...but I didn't listen to my instinct and bought it anyways. I live on a 50 acre horse farm with paved and dirt roads. Living in New England there are hills..and this was my major concern. All reviews said this item does good on hills as long as they are not too steep. Sadly this is far from the truth. Our driveway extends about 600 feet from my house to my brothers house. It's a uphill climb for me...not steep by any means of the imagination. It's a long uphill..but not steep. I tested the unit from a dead stop and with a running start. This test was done on a dirt driveway. From a dead stop I made it about 50 feet before it was crawling. I had to utilize it like a "kick" scooter to get it up the hill. Next I tested it from a "running start" using the straight flat area of our driveway. Huge difference. I made it about 250 feet before it was going slow. It should be noted that this NEVER came to a full stop. It just got to the point where it was faster to walk then to ride it. I continued to use my leg to give a push every 50 feet and made it up the driveway no problem. Sadly I'm not looking for a scooter I have to kick to get going. Next test was on a flat paved driveway that turns into a flat dirt driveway. As expected...this scooter excelled in this area. As long as you do NOT start from a dead stop....it does very good. Best to give it a kick or two then jump on. When you do....HOLD ON..it does move but feels very steady. Downhill test.....no reason to even explain it here...it does EVERY BIT of the 15 mph possibly even faster. It got to the point where I started to slow down a little just because i feared if i lost control....i would really get hurt. ***Conclusion*** The proof is in the pudding. Not great at hills (no matter how steep they are) but with a running start, you can do ok. Straightaways that are flat.....AWESOME....worth every penny. Downhill...NOT FOR KIDS...goes way to fast. I am still happy with my purchase. What more would you expect from an electric transportation that is less then $300. I am still happy with it. And hell....if i have to kick a few times going up hill..it gets me exercise!!! Hope this review helps!!

This is an excellent scooter! We bought it for our niece on her 13th birthday and she loved it! Of course we tested it out prior to giving it to her since we had to put it together anyways and it worked well. It was funny watching my wife ride it around the block with the neighborhood kids following her. I think she wants one now so we may order another one. This rides at the perfect speed. We were actually surprised how much power it had! It doesn't go crazy fast though so we felt comfortable giving it to our niece. It's just enough to have fun but not worry that someone is going to get hurt. The brakes are good too. It stops well but not terribly fast to that you do not get thrown off the scooter.The seat comes off if you want it to.Its easy to detach. I can tell that this scooter is made of a good quality. It weighs about 70lbs. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase and will probably be buying another one soon!

Para niños de 10 años perfecto, no es muy rápido 21 km/h., muy cómodo y suave manejo, las llantas inflables excelentes, cuando crezca mi hijo seguramente nesecitara más velocidad pero ahora es perfecto.

If you are looking to just buy a scooter and not tinker with it, you should factor in that the battery lasts Roughly 40minutes if you're lucky, and literally takes up to 12 hours to charge, realistically, this scooter is going to make you one small trip back and fourth to the store or something and not be ride-able again until you wake up the next day, so basically 1 ride per day, and that one ride has to be within 30 minutes max, or you'll be pushing it back the rest of the way... Which if you ask me, that really goes in the opposite direction of easy mid distance commuting, especially in the cold weather. So five stars? Yes, #1 Completely disregard a handful of warnings on the User Manuel if you've even read the darn thing before tearing it apart unlike like me... #2 rip open the speed controller and bridge one connection to bypass the darn thing that prevents the motor from spinning on literally any Lithium battery pack. Razor appears to have a flawless Legal/Engineering Team... #3 Grab almost any Lithium battery pack and use common sense to tell if the power rating is going to destroy your 250w rated motor or make it slower than a semi truck powered by an OralB Wireless Charging Supersonic Toothbrush sold at Costco for roughly $110 Canadian... #4 make it easy to slot extra battery's in on the go by running leads cleanly out of the scooter to a mount somewhere that seems fit. #5 close up your brand new, archaic scooter, and enjoy the benefits of having a more reasonable mileage to your journey each day. And then rate it 5 stars on amazon after you've realized 1000w motors are cheaper than A very particular toothbrush, install it alongside a 1000w battery, and watch French Cops choke on their TimHortons as you pull around the corner, on the scooter, in traffic, at 56km/h. so Yes 5 stars

My E300S is a later model, bought December 2014, version 39. All the recent versions of the E300 seem to have a single speed throttle instead of the variable speed throttle used (and widely reviewed online) in E300's up to version 19. I was a little disappointed to learn that but to be honest it was something I found during a search for documents about the scooter and not in riding it. Riding was fun and fine on level ground. I have not gone any steeper than a 1 in 15 or maybe 1 in 10 slope. At just over 200 pounds the scooter did not stall in moving me up a slope that might have been as much as 1 in 10 but it did not seem to be moving any faster than I could walk, either. There are comments in the manual that the unit should not be stored below 0°C to prevent the batteries from freezing. I am hoping that this is boilerplate to cover people storing the unit with discharged batteries since I will have to store it in an unheated garage. Charged lead acid batteries should be okay below 0°C...fingers crossed, so I will have to keep them charged. For a .ca domain or any Northern sales this information should probably be flagged in the product description. Different from the amazon.ca description: - braking is rear wheel, not front wheel; this is probably an improvement. - motor is documented as 250 Watt, not 300 Watt Shipping was excellent - the free shipping option was great and arrived a day or two earlier than the first predicted delivery day. Arrived in good shape. Overall the E300 is not quite as useful as I had hoped but it should still be somewhat useful and fun. Someone lighter than me would get more up slope performance out of it, too.

Un patín eléctrico muy bien armado, solo que no es de mucha velocidad y la batería dura muy poco, tal y como lo dice en el Manual. me gusta mucho para gente menor por lo anteriormente descrito.

Hola, buen día, realize la compra de 2 por separado, solo que el segundo no se ve reflejado el pago de la compra,
