If one is able to put something ie bag, laptop in the back of the seat,then how comfy does that make the backrest of the seat ?and most importantly where do you put your feet ?
Where do you put your feet? What wattage is the motor? Will i5 climb very very steep hills, I live at the top of a very steep hill. From the seat to the handlebars seems a long wa6, and once again where do you put your feet.
Why not SHOW the Disabled Person Getting ON and OFF the Scooter!! They haven't thought about a Truly Disabled Person being able to Open and Close The Scooter. It's Far too Difficult,for a NON Able Body Person to Push, lift and Stand to make the Scooter Work. Where do you put Your Legs and Feet?? As it's Very Low to the Ground. How do yo Get On or Off if your Legs are Weak?? This Scooter is NOT Made for the Disabled!! Very Sad as the Lightness is what we are Looking for. The Larger Wheels are a Good Idea, But?????
I am very impressed! I have been researching mobility scooters lately and finally found one that meets all my requirements. I need something small, lightweight, and can be easily folded. This mobility scooter was designed perfectly for that job. Although I still have some mobility, my hip hurts after walking for a few minutes, so getting a mobility scooter like this would let me stay out longer and enjoy my holidays again. Nice one, eFoldi.
Looks like a beautiful machine but, as a crippled person, I see two drawbacks for a sizable segment of possible clientele. You can't step through it to get on it. It will be hard for some folks to climb aboard. The other problem is having controls on two grips. People who have had, say, a stroke might not be able to operate the throttle on one side and, what I assume is the brake, on the other. And personally, with the way the key sticks out, I can see myself easily bending or breaking it.
Quite ridiculous the demonstrator did not sit on the machine once and did not indicate the feet position which looks impossible for a disabled person. I found I was screaming at the video......."sit on the bloody thing" !!!!!
