Because it is very lightweight, I was surprised to find that this small scooter is actually very sturdy and runs smoothly. Just as described, it has excellent performance because I have mobility issues... My body weight is a bit heavy, and it just barely fits inside, but it can indeed be seated. It can easily fit into the trunk of my car, so for now I think this is acceptable. Its reversing function is great, and the turning radius is not too bad either. I really like how convenient it is to fold.
