SuperHandy Passport Mobility Scooter - Foldable, 3 Wheel, Airline Travel Friendly - 13 Mile Range, Includes 2 Removable 48V Lithium-ion Batteries & Charger (330 Lbs)

I purchased this electric scooter because I am semi-handicapped and needed something to help me get up from my bed in the morning. I am the type of shopper who basically relies on customer feedback. When I noticed that there were no reviews for this scooter, I hesitated. However, this had everything that I was looking for and the price was very reasonable. Then I realized that someone had to try it first and leave a good review if they were happy with their purchase. Therefore, I am that person! I am in "Love" with this Handy Electric Scooter! I have several reasons for loving this scooter. They are listed as follows: 1. This Scooter it light enough to carry into a car if and when I decide to use it outside. Plus, it folds up which make it more compact. The seat and the steering wheel pole are also removable. This is a huge benefit! 2. The very comfortable cushioned seat is adjustable for the height. Plus, it has arm rests that move up and down. I can rest my arms on them when I am using the scooter and when I am getting out of the chair, I can bend them back to rest next to the back of the back rest. This is another Huge Benefit! 3. The Steering Bar has adjustable heights and is adjustable to angle inward towards the body. This is a very rare find! Because of this I can sit comfortably in my chair and rest my back on the backrest every time while I am using my scooter. I don't have to reach to touch and use the handlebars of the scooter! Talk about comfortable! This is simply "wonderful"! 4. The control buttons on the handlebar are all very easy to use. My hands are crippled, and this is a super bonus for me! On my left side there's a knob that controls the driving forward and backward option. All that I need to do it push up for Drive and down for reverse. This is extremely easy to do. There's an orange button just below this that turns the scooter on or off. When not in use it's best to turn the scooter off to restore energy of the battery. (I often double check to make sure that it's off by pressing the power lever. When it doesn't move, I know that it's off. There is also a breaking lever on the handle very similar to what is on a multiple speed bicycle. I'm sure, that this will work fine, but I have never had to use it. On the left side there's the lighted battery indicator. This can be pressed to see how much power is left in the battery' Green; full power, yellow: running low, or red; power gone-change battery. Then just below that is the lever that I press to make the scooter move forward or backward at my control. The speed is determined by how far down I press the lever. This is super amazing at how easy this is to work. The black handlebars are also very comfortable to wrap my hands around them. 5. There are two rechargeable batteries which come with the adapter to plug into an electrical outlet. After the backup battery is charged you can store it in the safe, easy to store receptacle that is attached to the scooter just beneath the seat of the scooter. These lock into place with a gray lever which is also very easy to attach and remove when you need to use the battery. 6. Three Wheeled Scooters like this have a great advantage to maneuver indoor getting into rooms and around doorways and corners. This handy scooter works great for that and is very sturdy. I am not ever worried about this tipping over. I will drive this with confidence everywhere I take it! The grooved wheels are solid and will never need air! In the future, I may buy a second scooter just for outside use. This way I won't have to deal with cleaning the wheels to use it inside too. 7. The handlebar holds a cloth black basket/bag the is supported by steel rods. This can be removed easily, and the bag can be removed from the rods for easy laundering if it should get soiled This scooter has been an answer to my problems of mobility big time!! I feel so blessed that I found this SUPER HANDY SCOOTER!

(Super Handy trademark but I call it HandyScoot), arrived today. It went together no problems. When everything was ready to go, my friend Mari showed up unexpectedly and we took it for a test drive. Pretty good scoot. Lots of nice little engineering details, Handy is in this business for real. Things I don't like: 1 It's not maneuverable enough to get onto the bus, but will probably be fine in stores. I'm used to a SmartScoot, which is nearly as maneuverable as a standard size manual lightweight wheelchair. 2. The seat assembly is so heavy I almost can't lift it. And it's uncomfortable for riding. Back not removable, can't wear a backpack. 3 . The seat post design is defective: weak 25mm tube, prone to breakage (as other reviewers have pointed out). And the clamp won't tighten it enough to stop wobble. 4 . The basket is small, and gets in the way of putting a headlight on the handlebars. 5 . Brake is on the left side. Any motorcycle rider can tell you this is wrong. Should be on the right side. 6 . Top speed is only about 4 mph, not nearly as fast as the SmartScoot. 7. The thumb throttle is almost like an on-off switch. Hard to creep along. 8 . I can't call it a "CojoTruk" until I've added a cargo platform to it. Which may never happen. (If you're wondering what's a "CojoTruk", just Google it.) Things that are good about it: 1 . Quality and attention to detail, in general. 2 . Front end very adjustable. 3 . Folds in the middle to be able to put it into almost any car. 4 . Acceleration is good and smooth. I think it'll pull a 6 degree grade no problem but haven't tried it yet. 5 . Instead of one big lithium battery, they supply two small lithium batteries. You can carry the second one if you're going to need the range. 6 . The seat is installed on a welded aluminum pedestal. I'll probably just unbolt all the heavy stuff and build my own seat. And can probably fix the clamp. With less weight, the flimsy seat tube will be less prone to breakage. 7 . Transfers to and from the wheelchair are easy. 8. Subjectively, gives a good ride. I prefer pneumatic tires (slimed to prevent flats) but these are fine. 9. Is able to go down a 4 inch curb ... very carefully. Front end lighter than a Smartscoot, might be able to go up a 4 inch curb with some struggle, haven't tried it yet. 10 . This model has important improvements over the earlier model. Rear drum brakes both wheels not just one. Thumb throttle instead of twistgrip. Adjustable steering column. Plus I'm sure some other details I didn't notice. Worth paying more to get a product the manufacturer is striving to improve. Glad I didn't go bottom dollar and get the old model. A lot of the manufacturing cost on the new model went into that fancy office chair on a flimsy 25mm post : without that inexcusable "improvement" they could have retailed it for $829. 11 . They kept it simple. Didn't try to load it up with smartphone features etc etc. 12 . Easy to assemble. Only tool required was a Crescent wrench (slipjoint pliers would also have worked). Their little stamped metal open end wrench for the steering column nuts was almost impossible to use. SUMMARY: I live in a wheelchair. When it comes to mobility scooters my frame of reference is SmartScoot. There's a lot to like about the SmartScoot, but I've lost two of 'em to nonrepairable electrical failures. I can't afford another one. Glad I prowled Amazon to find out what's new in mobility scooters. SmartScoot finally has a worthy successor at 1/3 the cost. --Dave J. EDIT: I built my own seat for it, only 5 pounds complete assembly and it's much more comfortable. Took it for a nice drive, went shopping, tried it on grades (good) and in the dirt (hopeless). Apart from digging a hole in dirt it gave a very decent ride. Recharged the battery. So this morning...... 50 feet from my front door, the electrical system shuts off. No apparent reason. Tough job getting up the sidewalk to the door, legs very weak from ALS. 10 minutes later inside, it wants to work again. I take it out for another spin. Same thing happens!! So I give up and go fetch the mail on my manually powered CojoTruk. When I get back, the Handy says it's ready to go for a ride now. But I'm not gonna be suckered a third time. ...... I tip it and run the motor for 10 minutes. Didn't quit. But I ain't taking it out, can't risk it. Handy customer service contact? There is none. So I've got a brand new scoot that I can't use and no way to contact the seller to see if there's some way to fix it.. SECOND EDIT:. customer service contact info is on back of owners manual. They're now working with me to resolve the issue. THIRD EDIT: Paul in technical service dept grappled with this confusing problem, obviously wanted to resolve it. I know enough about the technicalities to have been able to help steer things in the right direction. The problem was batteries. He shipped me a new battery no hassle no cost hoping it would not have the same problem. ........... It did. BUT-- I discovered that when it dies, just pull the battery and do a battery test on the battery. It resets the BMS and it's good to go again. AND, after putting additional riding time on the batteries to test them, the intermittent seems to go away. In the process I drove battery #2 till it ran out of juice just to find out how far it would go on a charge: 5.1 miles, nearly level ground, I'm probably about 160 pounds. CLARIFICATION: can no longer refer to it as a "HandyScoot". That turns out to be a trademark belonging to the same company that imports SmartScoot. They have an upgrade version of SmartScoot they call HandyScoot, which several years I'd have bought but they don't list it on Amazon so I didn't even know it existed. Surprisingly in my contacts with the SmartScoot importer, they never told me. Only found out by accident very recently when I was Googling trying to find the SmartHandy scooter importer and got HandyScoot instead. Weird merchandising. ..................I plan to install a cargo platform on the SmartHandy now that I know it works: when it's done it will become CojoTruk #5. If you want to know what a CojoTruk is, just Google it on the Wordpress website or on YouTube. SO NOW I'M HAPPY. Just carry an extra battery (it's designed to do that anyway), do the BMS reset trick if it ever becomes necessary again, and I got good customer service despite what I thought was going to be the case in the beginning. -- Dave J.

The description says it will get four and a half miles per hour and 6.7 miles per charge on batteries. On wide open throttle over a 0.72 Mi course with a 8 FT elevation difference I only got 3.48 miles from a battery and three and a half miles per hour average. I took it to the Tampa RV Super Show which is the largest in the world and all asphalt. I was able to get 4.5 miles per battery varying speed from 1 to 3 mph navigating a large crowd . After the first battery I put the second battery in, drove 500 ft and the whole unit shut down. I sat for a few minutes reseated the battery and it drove for about another half mile and shut down again. This time I had to sit for about a half an hour and reseated the battery before it would move again. There were other small issues such as the wrong size bolts for the handlebar stem, a useless handlebar Bell, a highly inaccurate battery charge gauge which would from green to Yellow within a half mile of riding. The handlebar charge gauge was only three lights whereas the battery has four indicator LEDs. This means The Handlebar charge gauge never correlated to what was on the battery making it difficult to tell how much range you actually had. The only way I was able to tell was through my initial testing and using a GPS app on my cell phone.The Handlebar throttle is just a thumb lever coming off the charge indicator. This is comfortable to use for maybe all of 5 minutes until your thumb starts cramping up. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement I really like the design of the unit. I found the seat comfortable the overall design intriguing but the electrical on it is an absolute disaster

Purchased this scooter because of arthritis in my hip and severe neuropathy in my feet. It is very difficult for me to walk long distances these days. I had this scooter out of the box and assembled in about 20 minutes taking my time. The batteries charged complete in about an hour in the state I received them (with a slight charge). With the seat off and batteries removed the scooter is not too heavy. I can easily lift into the back of my SUV or truck. The seat is comfortable and the arm wrests are a nice feature. This scooter is well constructed with nice materials and a nice design. This scooter is not too fast, but it is easily faster than I can walk right now. I don't know if I would take this to a venue that I would need to rely on it all day (theme park,,,) but for getting out of the house for some air or going shopping this will work just fine for what I need it for. I am 6'4" and about 250 lb. so I am not sure how well the battery charge will last overall. I did ride it up and down my street several times. My street has several slight inclines and it rode me along just fine without slowing down. Altogether so far I rode it about 3/4 of a mile and battery discharged about 25% from a full charge. I am thinking that I can get about 3-4 miles on a battery on neighborhood streets and a little more on flat level areas. I would have given this scooter 5 stars overall, but I don't think the battery life will be as advertised. I'll write an update after I have used it a little more. Update: used significantly for first time at a small zoo. This thing is great. Game changer for sure. We were in the park for about 2 hrs and used about half charge on one battery. Very satisfied. Just a heads up on this. Still love this scooter. I learned not to leave batteries in car in cold weather.

When I became unable to walk the miles needed on a daily basis at Walt Disney World, I started looking for a scooter. I saw a lot of them, but being on a limited budget, I did not think I would find one in my price range. As I scrolled I came upon this smaller, 3 wheel model. When I saw the features, the fact that it is very light weight, easy to put into my vehicle, comfortable seat, storage basket and 2 batteries included, I knew it was the right one for me. It folds easily and is simple to put back together. I am writing this review 14 months later, I have used it weekly, ofter more than that. The batteries are long life, easy to charge, and available on Amazon. The company website has several different models, some with 3 wheels, some with 4. The warranty is easy to use, my battery charger died and was replaced in a week. As a 72 year old woman with arthritis and spine issue, this scooter has been a lifesaver.

I looked a long time for a scooter that was light so I could pick it up by myself. It is a bit heavy but I can pick it up on my own. The batteries last, the seat is comfortable, and the two extra small wheels help me to maintain balance. My son put it together in less than an hour! I was really easy. I was also looking for a foldable scooter, and this one is not… I have to put it apart to be able to load it in the car. However, it is so easy to put back together again that this detail is not important. This is my first scooter and I do not have anything to compare it with but I give it a 5!!!

Light enough to be portable if you can lift heavy objects, heavy enough to feel the bottom is stable. Looks great - we wanted something that looks less like a mobility aid. Kids’ review - “it’s kind of fun; my scooter goes faster.” For this price we are very happy with what we got. I would give it more stars if it were easier to stop and park - like how the scooters in a grocery store require no knowledge to just get on and go (and stop). Performance cons: On a sloped street (curving downward along the curb for drainage) it felt a little precarious riding slightly tilted. I found the brake very stiff to use - we haven’t tested whether it is adjustable, but I doubt anyone with arthritis in their left hand would be able to brake. The only way you can stop it is with the hand brake, like a bicycle. There are only two directions - forward and reverse- so the only way to stop is to ease up on the throttle and apply the hand brake (it will decelerate on its own when not pushing the throttle button but then it’s just coasting to a stop like a car in neutral. I would not want to have to stop while heading uphill.) This is best used for slow steady going on a flat sidewalk, and do any turning slow and easy. Safety: Obviously not meant for speed but the kids u-turned fast enough to have one of the back wheels lift up off the ground (we were testing it with bike helmets on). We are novice mobility scooter users so take it for what it’s worth, but I would not let an elderly person use this without me hovering nearby to make sure all goes well or if they have questions about how to stop. To keep it from rolling you need to pull the hand brake all the way (stiffly) and push a latch. To get it rolling you need to remember to disengage the latch. And I would want to be there in case it tips over, since it is a relatively light scooter. It looks great for casual family outings for flat paved areas. I would prefer the 4 wheel version for stability but that would’ve cost a lot more. For now we will keep helmets on when using.

The frame is sturdy, the seat comfortable- but the batteries are the size one would use for a power drill. It says weight capacity of 330 (I am 290) and 6 mile life per battery. I followed all instructions, fully charged each battery and was excited to try out at Disneyland. The first battery died within 30 minutes, so I replaced it thinking maybe I didn’t charge it fully or it might be defective, but then the second battery also died after about 30 min. I was not climbing hills or anything, and after doing research I learned that battery is not sufficient for the weight and distance it claimed. I tried to order a bigger battery but the company doesn’t sell one. I was sad because this is a lot easier to lift and fold than a traditional scooter, but I need something that will give me the full 6 miles per battery.
