Scooters badly built, no rea customer service, slow, no shock absorb
Scooters are not well built. They tend to only last 300-500 miles until things really start to break apart. The speed used to go 20mph when unlocked but after the recent firmware update. It's stuck 16 at most and auto brakes when you go down hill to keep it under 16mph. I do not recommend buying it refurbished either. Considering the price range of the scooters. I would expect greater quality. The scooter I use from Unagi is the Voyager (the successor to Model One) It costs me $84/monthly $10 more because I opted for using brand new scooter. And $5 for theft insurance. Customer service is very tedious and slow. It's all AI based. No more phone calls. The only way to reach a customer service representative is through email. And even that's not easy to find their information. The customer service is also not really good. They closed a ticket of mine without fully answering a question about the firmware I had about them. The cost to buy a Model One Voyager is $1490. Honestly not worth it. There are plenty of scooters with similar to better features that I've found and am going to switch to. For a fraction of the price. I've seen scooter around $500 out perform this one. The tires are pnuematic? So are many other scooters. This scooter doesn't have any shock absorbers so you feel all of the road and it's not good for non smooth roads. The only decent thing is the 1000W power and acceleration. But even that's pretty mid, especially for the pride range. plus all that acceleration only to get limited to 16mph. Ok. The horn is pretty trash too. It's so quiet and weak. In the span of my subscription time so far. Which is about 2 years. I've received about 7 scooters. One replacement arrived dead on arrival. And some one fell apart while using it around the 500mi mark Another only lasted 300 ish miles and the breaks started giving out. And the last one I'm replacing because the handle bar and the base board junction became loose and causes the wheel to be unaligned, making it dangerous to operate. (it's been 5 days since I opened a ticket for a replacement via email. Still no update. No tracking# and the status on the replacement is still unshipped. ) I strongly do not recommend this company and I would never buy these scooters brand new.
