I sprained my foot, severely, right before I was going to work at a kids camp. I went to the doctor's and he said the only way I'd be able to do this, was with a knee scooter. He told me even with a knee scooter, I should expect to be limited with what I would be able to do. That night, four days before camp, I frantically started the search for a sturdy, reliable scooter. I stumbled across this one and started reading the reviews. I needed a scooter that would be able to go across grass, gravel, and be light enough that I would be able to lift it up several steps. I looked at dozens of scooters and read many reviews. I kept coming back to this one. With a silent prayer,(I''m 5'7", 120 lbs, with long legs) I ordered this Jr. Knee Rover, along with the "Azoob Universal Knee Walker Knee Rest Pad," and a larger metal basket (the one it came with seemed very small, according to the dimensions). This came the day before I was to leave for camp! That night, I assembled it. To my surprise, it was very easy to do. They give you all of the necessary tools needed to put it together. It seemed pretty sturdy and I hoped it wouldn't let me down. The very next day, it was put through a ringer of a test. I wheeled it through gravel, bumpy grass (lots and lots of it) and hauled it up a couple of steps. The days following, I put some serious miles on it . . .no exaggeration. All the adults at the camp were amazed that it worked so well and that I never fell behind (I am pretty athletic, and it might be a little harder for some people to go through grass and a good gait. But I think it really wouldn't be an issue, because most people are not trying to keep up with dozen's of children). The tires surprisingly kept their air. Only once did I have to add some, and it was only to one tire. It lost 4psi in four days. I was fearful that the overall abuse the scooter was taking, would lead to it's break down. Never once did I have any issues with bolts loosening, parts breaking, or it falling apart. I, and many people, were floored at how well it stood up to the test. There were some small cons. So I decided to list them so anyone looking would be aware: 1) The turn radius is not that great. However, this didn't bother me. I got really good at turning it by lifting the front up and using my leg. This only took about a day to figure out. 2) While striding, I would hit my ankle bone where the front wheel attached. There is a bolt that sticks out a good inch. However, I have very long legs, and this might not even be an issue with most folks. After several of these instances, I learned to take shorter strides. 3) The basket that it comes with is very small. This is, however, a child's scooter. So logically it makes sense to have a smaller basket on it. 4) The handle bars were a little short, and I wish they had been an inch or two longer. But once again, this is a child's scooter, so that's to be expected. 5) You will need a second padding on it. Even after I added a second padding, my shin would let me know that it was getting a little sore. But I was in a hard walking boot, on this scooter, for most of the day. This may not even be an issue if you're only on it for a couple of hours each day. I never had any serious cons. The above mentioned are slight and you easily adjust. Overall, this was a great knee scooter. I am so thankful that I ordered this! And I love the teal coloring. I honestly can't say enough about it. I am still floored at how well it took all the abuse. I would say that this literally took the ultimate test, and it passed with flying colors! There were quiet a few pictures of me using this, however, since it was a camp for foster care children, I can't post them. By law, you can't show pictures of these children's faces. We do need to guard them and make sure that they stay safe. I would recommend this, hands down! 10/10.
