Huffy Disney Princess Scooter, Pink/Purple, 6-Inch Reviews
| 11 of 12 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Scooter, Pink/Purple, 6-Inch (Sports) The Huffy Disney Princess Scooter is a steel- framed scooter designed to help youngsters get used to the scooter concept before they move on to the two- wheeled variety. This warm- up scooter features the immensely popular Disney Princess theme, making it an instant hit with young girls everywhere.The Huffy Disney Princess Scooter is sold disassembled with the pieces in a small box. Putting everything together isn't too difficult, but the process would be much easier if the instructions were clearer. The instructions don't walk you through the assembly process step by step. Instead, they show you a diagram with the different parts pulled apart from the scooter so that consumers can see what goes on first, second, third, etc. This eventually works, but it would have been much better if the instructions were step- by- step and if the images were larger. As for the product itself, it offers a large footplate with a no- slip design and it has a very cute appearance...

This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Scooter, Pink/Purple, 6-Inch (Sports) I bought this for my 4yr old's birthday and it was a hit. She's been riding around in it constantly and can't wait for warmer weather so she can take it to the park. I like how the base is wider than other scooters so it is easy for both her feet to get on it easily and for better balance. The material is very good quality and seems very durable. I think she will be ridign around on it for quite some time...at least until she outgrows it. Even my 17 month old loves going on a ride! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful By aunt B "papadad" (pittsburgh, pa) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Huffy Disney Princess Scooter, Pink/Purple, 6-Inch (Sports) i boought the Disney Princess 6inch scooter for my 5 year old daughter for christmas. I thought it would be just fun to have her open something with wheels and she could ride around the house. I didnt expect much fanfare and thought she'll play with it for a while and forget it till the weather breaks in the spring. Well, she loved it..she's been playing with it since christmas, she made a garage for it with cardboard boxes and has become quite adept at riding it inside the house without much incidence. Along with it being fun to ride, its an easy build. the tools came with it, so you don't have to hunt down wrenches from your toolbox. I had it built in 10 minute and wrapped in 5. Its anexcellent product and pretty safe because of the wide base and fairly big wheels. I recommend highly for the active 5 year old. |

Pedal Powered Scooter 180lb max Reviews
Pedal Powered Scooter 180lb max Reviews
| 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Pedal Powered Scooter 180lb max (Misc.) My wife and I got one of these each. She now has a bloody knee. It takes a lot of effort and is more or less unpleasant to keep these things balanced. If the street you are going down is crowned, as ours are, then with every pump of the pedals one of the back wheels will lift off the ground, tending to throw you off. The handlebar column wobbles all over the place, even when you tighten it according to the directions.When you get the thing going, you can go perhaps 10 mph. It is OK, but like a stepper machine, a lot of work. It is not fun. Oh, and wear a helmet and knee and elbow pads. These things are hard to control and seem flimsy to me. I don't get the feeling that it will last long. Basically, I didn't like it. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful By SandiS "Buyer" (Northern CA USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Pedal Powered Scooter 180lb max (Misc.) This gives you a REAL workout. Of course it may be that I'm an adult doing it vs a kid, just having fun. Have to be careful 'cause stem (to handlebars) has some 'give' so feel a little nervous. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful By Penny Scheff (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Pedal Powered Scooter 180lb max (Misc.) The box it arrived in looked well travelled but the Pumgo seemed to be in new condition. I bought it to exercise during the daylight hours when running is difficult for me, and walking and biking can put me to sleep. It was a very good workout for my knees and calves. Strangely, my arms got very sore and tired quickly and required me to take breaks. I run very slowly so I'm not surprised that I Pumgo slowly but the effect on my arms is discouraging. I wear protective gear that I bought after I smashed into the pavement while riding my Trikke. Sincerely, Penny Sue Scheff 2020 Nicollet Ave S #328 Mpls MN 55404 |

Trikke Tech T8 Series 3-Wheeled Carving Scooter (Black) Reviews
| 57 of 59 people found the following review helpful By Captainbob (Atlanta) - See all my reviews This review is from: Trikke Tech T8 Series 3-Wheeled Carving Scooter (Black) (Sports) Update : You can buy this Trikke at Costco now for around $269.....The T8 is my second Trikke. I purchased a T78 back in September and I am totally hooked on Trikking. I am retired and ride my T78 about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours a day. It is an all body workout and is fun. There is a learning curve, but once you get past that you can really move on the Trikke. I have lost over 13 pounds since I started Trikking. It will do up to 17 mph on flat terrain and really fly down hills. The T8 is the Top of the line Trikke in it's size category, which will work for someone up to 6'5" and 250 pounds. It folds up in a few seconds, weighs 20 pounds, and you can put it in your car trunk, carry it with you, and store it in the corner of a room standing on end when folded. The ride is great, and it handles like a sports car. If you want something that is fun, and to get in shape for the rest of your life, the Trikke will do it for you. You will actually become addicted to riding...

I have been out practicing on it for short intervals throughout the weekend. It has got easier, and I occasionally get into a rhythm with it and I just go. I know that soon I will become more naturalized with the trikke, and that rhythm will become second nature. I am really pleased with it. |
