I ordered the EZIP 1000 several months ago and have been thoroughly impressed with the value for the money that the scooter has provided since I received it. I originally purchased the scooter to run around my neighborhood. However, I have found myself using it far more than I imagined. The scooter folds up easily so I am able to put it in my car and use it in a variety of places and on various terrains.....it runs great on sidewalks, concrete, grass, and dirt. I weigh 200+lbs and the scooter provides plenty of power and zip. Riding the scooter is very smooth and it's easy to steer thanks to the full suspension. Additionally, the scooter is very quiet. I have enjoyed this scooter very much and would highly recommend it!

My wife and I purchased a pair of these scooters to use in lieu of a tow vehicle while camping in our Class A motorhome. We purchased from Amazon and the delivery was quick (as usual). The scooter goes together very easily in about 30 minutes or less. The scooter is heavy (about 75-80lbs) but manageable. We store them in the belly of our rig and the two of them take up most of one bay.
First impressions: A zippy scooter that received a lot of praise by fellow campers. Adults liked the scooters and how we were using them, kids drooled at the sight of them. The handle bar folds down, the seat is removed with one screw, and it is ready for storage. They're easy to manage, produce good acceleration on flat surfaces, and are a lot of fun to ride.
A closer look at the details: The range advertised on this scooter is listed as 12mi. I don't think I will ever get 12 miles out of the scooter in one charge. I got about 6 miles before the red light came on indicating...Read more

I bought and returned three of these at different times from my local Sam's Club. Every single one failed within a week of purchase and was returned. The first one had a bad gearbox, which started making a loud clanking noise whenever the rear wheel was activated. The second one had a bad disc brake: The right rear pad was not sufficiently shimmed, so the rotor rubbed against the caliper housing. The third one had a bad bearing on the rear wheel. All of these problems manifested themselves after only a few hours of use.
The idea behind this product is a good one: Use standard bicycle parts and an electric motor to create an inexpensive scooter. The problem is that Currie (the company who makes these products) apparently uses Chinese made parts which didn't last more than a few hours for me(see above) and has made bad design decisions as the product has changed from year to year (see below).
The first design problem comes from the use of disc brakes in the...Read more
