Good Scooter from Bird with drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So yet another scooter from the company Bird has arisen. This is my first electric scooter but have now decided to return it to BestBuy. I'll explain why but let's talk about the features about it. Top speed is 16 MPH but did notice every now and then it would go 17.1 MPH which isn't bad if you get it for $399 like I did when it went on sale. It has a nice sleek design with a easy setup of installation which is nice to see all you need is 4 screws to put the handle bar into place with a cable and you're off. It also folds pretty easily which is another benefit. Now lets talk about why I returned it. The main reason as to why was the power/range of this scooter in reality. For one, at best times maybe around half of its rated EPA. That's atrocious for the actual MSRP of $599. Also another drawback is the acceleration/power of it. I looked at the sticker and it has a 250 Watt motor powering the rear wheel. It's not the worst but it can be better for the money. The Unagi Model One E350 has 100 watts more power than this. And also the Unagi is also lighter and has a nicer design than this and is faster with more range. That's all the main drawbacks to why I returned it. The one now I've ordered is the Unagi Model One E350 Ultralight. As of writing this review on the Presidents Day sale it's $489.99 (37% off). Go for it if you see this review!

So far so good.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What an awesome scooter! Not app dependent is what made me buy two Bird Air scooter. Major complaint on the other brand that requires app and bluetooth connection is that when the phone disconnects from the scooter it stops working even when you’re driving and leave them stranded. As any other battery operated vehicle or devices, i hope the battery on this thing would last.

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give this a negative star I would. I recently purchased the Bird Air Electric Scooter - Sonic SILVER and was extremely disappointed with the quality of this product. Within a few days of using it, the battery stopped charging and I was unable to use the scooter. I tried reaching out to the customer service team multiple times but was unable to get through to anyone. The worst part was that the company did not offer any refund or exchange policy for this defective product. I would strongly advise against purchasing the Bird Air Electric Scooter - Sonic SILVER, as it is clearly not reliable and not worth the money. Save yourself the trouble and find a better quality electric scooter from a different brand.

Fun and fast scooter
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For clarity, I bought this scooter as a leisure device, not for commuting. My first and biggest impression of the scooter is its build quality, as the unit is made entirely from aluminum. Beyond the build, the scooter is fast enough for me to reach its top speed while being on the heavier end of the scale. Battery life is satisfactory, and riding and breaking are quite smooth. My only complaints are the lack of accessories or parts available for this unit and limited app support (Just allows you to change speed levels, control the headlight, view the odometer and battery life). Would have been nice to have the ability to lock the scooter's motor. Beyond this, it is one solid scooter.

Review for Large/Heavy users 300lbs+
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.**Review for large/heavy people 300lbs+** Alright! I know many of you have the same question and I will answer it. Can it hold heavy people? Yes, yes it can!! How good does it work? Insanely good!! I’m 314 lbs and I have been using this for about a week. Does not bend when I step on it, runs smooth, runs fast and battery is amazing. Been cruising for about an hour daily and battery goes 100% to 60% on the fastest level. As expected, it slows down when you go uphill but that’s pretty much it. Runs fast, breaks fast and holds my weight. I 100% recommend this if you are a heavy person. My daughter has the Segway Kickscooter E2 and that one bends as soon as I step on it. Great scooter but not for heavy users. This BIRD is the type of scooter I was looking for. You will not be disappointed!

Q: QuestionWhere is the QR code located on the Bird Air? I cannot get my Bird to turn and it's fully charged.
Asked by Penny.
- A:Answer The scooter does not have a QR code. Actually, you don’t need a QR code and you don’t need the App. You can connect it via Bluetooth on the app where it says “Private Birds”. It will show you the only one that is close to you. Once you connect it, it will only show you the battery, speed and headlight on/off option. You can control all that on the scooter itself without any need of the app.
