Customers are pleased with the quality and sturdiness of the Swagger 5 Foldable Electric Scooter. However, some customers have experienced issues with the tires, including deflation and difficulty spinning the front tire. Concerns have also been raised regarding the battery life, with some reporting shorter-than-expected performance. These issues appear to be the main drawbacks reported by users.
Sadly, I got this as a gift and almost immediately I noticed the rear wheel must have been slightly out of alignment because I felt the brake rubbing on it as it revolved. Obviously this will drain a battery quicker and not allow you to truly reach max speed (if that suits you). I kept it anyway since it worked and I had the 2 year warranty. But then it got worse. I used it in NYC and it didn't take bumps well at all...I found I had to constantly brace myself for rough road conditions. When I finally resolved to turn it in for a replacement, COVID hit so I was less than eager to go out. I finally returned it but Best Buy no longer sells these (or I would have swapped) so I was refunded the cost.

This scooter was faster then I even expected for the price you can’t go wrong buying this . Has cup holder , bell and brite lights for night time riding. Folds up easy and is lightweight .

Rode for a few months, approximately 2 miles per day, Monday - Friday. Tire went flat. Tried to get repaired. Options: 1. Send back to manufacturer for a fee and it’ll take 5-20 business days to fix 2. Get a new scooter Swagtron has awful customer service and BBYs is even worse. I’m an elite member and have spent over $7k at BBY in the last year and they literally offered to do nothing because it’s outside the window. Sorry my expectation is that a product lasts more than five months.
