Testimonials

"Recently we took a trip to Paris and of course took my TravelScoot. It was a long way from our commuter train to the Eurostar train. To ease the luggage situation, I removed the saddle and put the carry handle of one of our suitcases over the U bar and then replaced the saddle. I also loaded another suitcase and a carry bag across the TravelScoot. Refer to
the attached photograph. The TravelScoot did not notice the additional weight and was easy to manage. I also on another occasion dispensed with the suitcase across the TravelScoot and found that the TravelScoot was stable whilst towing the remaining suitcase, but then the centre of gravity of the suitcase drawbar was low and did not pose a threat to the
stability of the TravelScoot. This, of course, meant that I could use both hands to control the TravelScoot and could negotiate my way easily through the crowds of people.

At Paris we visited Montmartre, home of the artists and street entertainers, the whole area is dominated by the white domed basilica of the Sacre Coeur. I managed to travel up the steep cobbled street from
the bus stopping area to the bottom of the Sacre Coeur, and down again with no problems. Anyone who knows the area will realize that this was no mean feat for the TravelScoot to perform.

The cobbled streets were fine to use provided that one travels at a slow speed to avoid being bounced about.

It is also so easy to take the TravelScoot on a bus, train or plane and to use it in confined spaces and crowded areas.

I can conclude by stating that the TravelScoot is a really great mobility scooter that will take a person over any type of paved surface, and up or down any reasonable slope with ease. It is a fantastic machine with good stability."

"Sorry for not writing sooner.

Thank you for your prompt response to my warranty claim for a broken belt. It is refreshing to deal with people who stand behind their product.

It is a great product.

Thank you. I recomend TravelScoot to everyone who asks."

Ron Nagel

" I love the scooter. It has really made a difference.

"We bought our travelscoot in March and it is working beautifully.

We need an extra belt just in case one breaks during our trip to Mexico.

Thanks again it's a great product!!!"

" I've been very pleased with my Travelscoot so far. Even my husband is impressed that I can lift it in and out of car by myself therefore allowing me more independence than I had before purchasing it.

Thank you,"

Kristine Swyers

"My mother is still using her Travel-Scoot and loves it. My question is,  does the scooter require any type of maintenance? She has used it for three or four years now, all over the country, on buses, trains, planes, automobiles and subways and couldn't travel without it. Do we have to do anything to it as in regular maintenance? We haven't done a thing, so far, except charge the batteries.

Thanks."

"My dad actually returned the Lexus Light, it was just too bulky for us, again we do a ton of air travel, we actually went down to pbi from jfk and bought www.travelscoot.com

It is great for travel....small, and can hold up to 320 pounds...

This is not my dad's primary scooter for home, he has a Rally for regular use, but this travelscoot folds into a large duffle bag, and we fold it up at the gate and gate check it with the strollers, and so on.

Hope this help.

All the best. "

"Just to let you know how thrilled I am with my TravelScoot. It is so nifty to use in the Supermarket. I had been using the Supermarket mobility scooters, but they are so cumbersome, especially when turning into the aisles which are often packed with shelf packers trollies as well as shoppers. The TravelScoot turns easily within its own size, as well as being fun to operate and use.

I have tried, without success, to obtain a lightweight portable scooter in the UK . They are just not available in this country. Many suppliers advertise their products as being portable when in reality they actually mean transportable, provided that at least 2 fairly strong people load/unload their products into the trunk (boot) of cars. I find that I can load the TravelScoot into my car without help from others.

Thank you for restoring my mobility."

"We just got back from our cruise and the Travelscoot was wonderful!

I was able to go all over the ship and off the ship as well.

Thank you for this freedom!"

"Hello from Daniel, I am in Puebla, Mexico and have been here since I left your office.

Thanks for your help and for putting me in the hotel etc.; the scooter is very good to use and I like it a lot - many folk have asked me about it and I tell them your website address.

Your happy customer,"

(Daniel Davies, of London - on vacation in Mexico.)

"Received the business cards and pamphlets. Everything is first class with you isn't it? You certainly do know what is needed.

I'm still getting used to some things on my scooter but I love it more every time I use it. Hope we can drum up lots of business for you. Would you be going to the Oshkosh Fly-in this year?

My husband and son when last year. Our son is going this year...maybe Al too...who knows... Your scooter certainly would benefit you at a large fly-in like that."

Amanda

Also, I get a lot of interest in the scooter.

People really love it. I drove it to my Pilates class this morning and everyone was amazed at its lightness and maneuverability.

Do you have some kind of flyer, or business card, I could hand out? I'm sure you would get some orders if I could tell people how to get in touch with you."

Thanks
David Jeffrey

"We recieved the travelscoot yesterday 10-3-08... I'm impressed , good build quality and looks very strong yet light weight.
Heather is pleased with the fine speed control and turning circle.

I have assembled and test rode around in the house with a couple of 7 a/h batteries I had from my security system .

I will source some 14 A/h batteries this week.

Cheers"

We took an 8000 mile cross country motor home trip last Fall. My Scoot took me everywhere I wanted to go. It's an amazing little machine and I've had a zillion questions about it while travelling.

Needless to say...I love my Travel Scoot."

"I have been meaning to drop a line or two to tell you how much I enjoy my TravelScoot.

I received it for Christmas 2007 from my family. What a surprise!

I can walk a little but not far. So when we go motorcycling etc I must sit somewhere so my friends and family can walk to other places that I can't navigate. One thing I really enjoy is not having to mess with the put, puts in the stores because they are so slow and hinder others I'm with.

I feel like I'm one of your sales persons. I get many remarks about my TravelScoot and every time I am out I am stopped and questioned about how to get a TravelScooter for someone in their family or friends. We always give them your web site, which is beautiful, by the way. People are most surprised at how it folds up so quickly and can be put is the trunk and still have room for groceries. I get the biggest kick out of the very young children and how they watch me when I'm scooting around in the stores.

Thanks again."

"Received my scooter a couple of weeks ago and have taken it on vacation to Hot Springs Ar.

I absolutely love the freedom it provides me, being able to keep up with family and not slowing them down.

I have Ceberal Palsy and in the past I would tire out easy and have to sit for long periods or end the outing early.

Folds up and assembles quickly, easily stores in the trunk of the car. Very well engineered and very well built.

Thanks again for giving me my freedom back

A very satisified customer"

"Just wanted to update you on the new Li-Ion battery and wish you Happy Holidays.

This new battery is fantastic.

It is a lot lighter and seems to hold a charge for a longer period of time.

My husband said it is easier to connect.

It was well worth the additional money.

I have only used the old batteries once since receiving the new battery.

Take care,"

Marilyn Long

"This isn't an enquiry...it's a word of praise!

I have been using my TravelScoot for several months now and am totally delighted with it!

Since I can walk some, but not too long, I can load and unload my scooter by myself, but find that people are kind and very often someone stops to help me, sometimes so that they can ask a few questions about the scooter and sometimes just because people are, contrary to public opinion, very kind!

Just after I received my scooter I got back in touch with you regarding a basket for the scooter and was very surprised that you don't sell one. I went to a bicycle shop and got two reed baskets, one to strap onto the front and one to strap onto the back. They are very helpful but quite small, so I can't carry too much. I use my scooter primarily in hospital clowning and you have no idea how much STUFF you have to carry as a clown! I think you could do your customers a real service by designing and selling a wire basket fitted to the maximum size for the scooter...and increase your bottom line, too.

We will soon have a basket, and it folds too! .............. TravelScoot

One last thing that I have found...I primarily clown at a children's hospital and have found the scooter to be a wonderful help there...first of all, many children are in wheelchairs or other wheeled carts or on crutches and my being on the scooter brings me down to eye-level with them...and they respond beautifully to that! Of course, all the little boys are fascinated with it and always ask if they can ride it (actually, they say, "Drive it"). I don't, of course, let them do that. Also, the hospital is said to have seven miles of floors if you hit every department, every floor, and I was having trouble even covering one floor.

Also, I had given up on going to shopping malls...I just couldn't handle the walking, but now I scoot along the halls with no problem. The other day a man in an electric wheelchair shouted out to me, "Slow down...this isn't to Grand Prix, you know!" But then he wanted to know all about the scooter!

In your debt forever,"

Sally E. Nightengale

"I had to update you on my life with my Travelscoot.

I can now participate in swim aerobics because the scooter delivers me from the parking lot to the pool's edge.

I've enjoyed going with my grandchildren to the zoo and waterpark for hours at a time. My aunt calls me Speedy Pants!

Thank you so much for helping get back into the mainstream of life.

Retirement is fun now."

Pamela Wiley

"What a great scooter! I have put this unit through its paces for a month on the hilly streets of my neighborhood, on the city sidewalks, and while attending a weekend conference at a nearby resort.

The Travel Scoot is so much more stable than my No Boundaries Featherlite scooter due to the angled frame design and battery placement under the seat, all enabling the rider to maintain a low center of gravity.

I am absolutely in awe of the speed the tiny motor generates.

The Travel Scoot is so compact that it even fits in the trunk space of my Porsche, and I can load it easily with just one hand.

The Travel Scoot is the best!"

Byron L. McLean, Esq.

"I received my scoot and much enjoyed being able to attend the Washington Horse Show
for the first time in 10 years as the walking had been just too painful to even enjoy the event.

Thanks,"

Carroll Bowers

"The replacement for my lost seat arrived right on time for my Alsaka Cruise. I left on Sept 8,2007 and was on the Cruise ship Serenade of the Seas at Vancouver Dock, by noon. The scooter was delivered to me in the evening. I unfolded it and started using it right away.

Through the whole cruise I used the scooter for going to dinging rooms for breakfast, lunch, dinner, all the events on the ship. I used it to move around in all the possible parts of the ships. Many persons inquired where I got the scooter. I told them Travel Scoot. They were amazed at the agility of the scooter.

I could not have enjoyed the cruise if I did not have your replacement seat for use on my scooter.

I used the scooter in Hanooka for moving to tram for the tram journery. I used the scooter to watch the Hubbard Glacier from the ship and go to Manenhall Glacier and watch the salmons, and the glacier mouth and the falls. At least 20 persons were amazed at its convenience, inquired and I told them where to get it.

Then we went to see the Jasper National Park. We visited all the attractions and I used the scooter for 3 days unfolding for use to see the attractions like Lake Louise, Lake Lorain, and many other places where I would be obliged to walk and I could not walk beyond about 150 feet.

I used on rough terrain with loose gravel and uneven surface and it did well. I could control wellin almost all the places I used it. I used it in restaurants, and in malls and mall shops.

I am very happy with my scooter.

Thank you,"

"You may recall our conversation about the purchase of the TravelScoot for my wife. We had tried a "light weight" Lexis Scooter and found it to be not only not light weight, but not very convenient to fold up, assemble or LIFT into the car or airplane.

I was somewhat reluctant to purchase yours "sight unseen" for that reason. Your assurance and willingness to take it back if it didn't work for my wife's situation was what it took to get me to purchase it.

Boy, am I glad we did! It has given my wife a "new life".

She was pretty well getting homebound with the limitations of strenght and balance and nerve problems which make walkign with her walker so slow and painful that she just didnt' want to go very far.

We just got back from an Alaskan Cruise (our first vacation together in several years) and she had the time of her life. Was able to go exploring, not feel like she was holding anyone back and really learned how to drive (on the elevator....quick sharp 180 and ready to go ....at least 50 times!). Only a couple "learning curve lessons" :-)

We got home from Alaska (TravelScoot in the overhead both ways), loaded it in the back of our Cessna 210 and headed up North where she rode it down the dock to our boat, we loaded it aboard for land tours at our destination and away we went.

You have no idea what your engineering genius has done for my lovely bride of 38 years! WE CAN TRAVEL TOGETHER AGAIN! And what a great piece of engineering!

Thanks for your kind approach to getting us on one of your scooters. We will always be indebted to you."

Walt

"The TravelScoot is wonderful.

I've enjoyed using it in "big box" stores and malls that I wouldn't have been able to explore because I have trouble walking great distances.

Many people have asked me about it and several "able bodied" people have remarked how they wish they had something like it to ride.

Sincerely,"

Wilda Dodson

"My friend, Nicholas and I went over to the wide cement area where the morning market is located and unpacked the new scooter.

In less than ten minutes it was put together and running.

Let me tell you it's so compact and easy to set up ... now less than 2 minuets ... steady, balanced, and small, when finished it just folds and tossed into the trunk and off I go!

I love it and after the gym tomorrow and some errands will try it out on rue Cler."

Edward J. CUNHA

"Thought I would give you the latest update on my scooter.

This past week my grandaughters were here for a visit. They are 16 months and almost 5 years old. We went to the store shopping for clothing for them and also went to the playground for them to play.

It was great being able to keep up with them. When we needed to cross the street the 5 year old would hold my hand and we were able to cross safely.

We also went to a "food court" for lunch and I didn't experience any problems getting around. The scooter pulled up to the table without a problem.

Also, I have found that it is very deceiving as far as the turn-around ability of the scooter. Many times I thought I wouldn't be able to turn around in the small aisle in the store or also move so easily between the clothes racks.

I'll keep you apprised up any new experiences with the scooter.

Hope all is well with you.

Sincerely,"

"I recently returned from a month of traveling throughout Europe.

The scooter was a necessity. TravelScoot served me well.

I enclosed a picture from Venice showing our body guard lifting my scooter over some approaching steps. I have included it here, along with the names and addresses of people interested in purchasing that would like literature.

Sincerely yours,"

Paul J. Asher

"I just wanted to say how wonderful your scooter is!!!! It has given me back my mobility.

Do you have any brochures or business cards you could send me? I get soooo many inquiries about it.

Thanks"

"Having it now for 1 1/2 years, The Travelscoot has been a wonderful -it has provided many hours of ease of travel for shopping, appointments and travel-it has been the talk of many onlookers.

Thank you,"

Terri Zammataro

"I received my Travelscoot late yesterday afternoon and spent the evening reading the material and practicing setup and take down of the scooter.

Today I made a victory lap around our mall and I can't thank you enough for creating the perfect device to give me back my life.

On my first trip I was able to assemble and fold it back up in under 2 minutes and loved the freedom of being out of the house by myself.

I hope to earn enough "credit" with referrals to get the lighter/longer lasting battery but most of all I would like others with walking problems to know the feeling of independence that I now have! "

Pam Wiley

"Thought that you might like to see the TravelScoot in an airplane, Southwest, baggage bin. I carry the battery on and put it under the seat then put the Scooter in the overhead."

Boyd Maddox

"Do you have any Travel Scoot flyers that you could send me? I would like to include one in a few of my Christmas cards. Plus I would like to leave a couple in my doctor's office as well as one with my pharmacist. There are lots of elderly people here that might be interested in the Scoot. When using mine, there has been lots of interest. I'm glad you sent me some of your cards. I'll be happy to do a bit of advertising for you. Your product is well worth it. I'm very happy with mine. It's lots easier to transport than those other kind of scooters.....and performs well. I'm anxious to see how my husband likes it when he changes the gear and tries it out.

My local bike shop in NJ fitted mine with a basket on the back of it. The little canvas carrier underneath my feet was immediately claimed by my pup. He loves riding on it with me. From the day it arrived and the moment I first got on it, he was on it with me. And no matter how long I'm using it....that's where he stays. I sometimes have trouble getting him off of it when I get home. He wants to keep riding. He's become a very spoiled pup. I'm going to include his picture on it in my Christmas cards as well. Great advertisement for those of my friends who have small dogs or cats and are considering getting a transportation aid.

As you can see from this picture, I had just put the Scoot together when he claimed his place. I hadn't even tried it out yet.



Do have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,"

Donna Stewart

" I just wanted to let you know what a success the TravelScoot was on my recent cruise.

I could have sold a dozen or more for you.

I did point out your web address, so hope that genuine orders follow.

"the Charcot Marie Tooth Association has added your company to its website for people
interested in scooters. just wanted to let you know.

I am having such a great time with my scooter. i have gone places I havent been able to go in years.

thanks...Keep me in mind if people from the area want to talk to a customer."

"I´m Bernd Koschier - owner of www.escooter.de.

I already sold some of your fantastic units here in Germany - buying it from LANZ.

The users are really happy with it - sometimes nearly fanatic since it gives them a chance to travel by plane, car, train.

Congratulations on this product! Well chosen components and very very innovative foldingsystem!

Regards from Munich"

"After viewing your TravelScoot on the Discovery Channel, I decided to call your 800 number.

I'm a retired gentlemen with walking difficulties over a 100 meters.

At first, I was concerned about my weight being too much for the small TravelScoot, weighing about 320lbs. But, after visiting with you in West Palm Beach and trying out the TravelScoot, I changed my mind and purchsed one.

I have nothing but good things to say.

Surprisingly satisfied with the control and unbelievable speed this unit has. At least 5-6 miles per hour. My weight doesn't interfere with construction of this strong unit. It gets you to your location quickly. Easy to charge battery after usage. Easy foldable unit for travel. And easy to open in minutes.

I recommend this TravelScoot for everyone.

Thanks!"

"We have used our Scoot several times now and are very, very pleased.

Its user can handle it independently and loves the freedom it provides -- she's off shopping right now.

Thank you,"

Liz Esterly

"I just received my scooter 2 weeks ago.

I love it.

We took on a trip and it was so easy to use and put together.

I don't use scooters because I can 't judge. But this one is easy for me to use, I was scared at first but once I got on it , I was able to take off.

My parents are older and this is just what we need, I have cerebral Palsy.

Thank you for my scooter,"

Diana Pressnell

"We have just returned from our trip to Sweden, with the two TravelScoots that our daughter, Margarete Chase, purchased on our behalf. It was a wonderful trip and the little scooters really expanded our opportunities to move around and enjoy the sights over a much wider range without having to use our walkers.

Overall, the trip to Sweden and the TravelScoots were a complete success. The scooters will continue to be most helpful here at home. It is a markable devise, and was the object of amazement -- and some amusement -- in Stockholm."

Very sincerely,

Archer Taylor

"You will recall that my wife and I visited with you on the 8th of March and purchased a TravelScoot.

We are absolutely delighted with the TravelSccot.

We have taken it on several trips since purchasing it and I found it a wonderful aid to my wife's mobility.

Thank you for developing it.

We recently took it to Europe for three weeks. We visited France, Switzerland and Germany during that period.

Of interest, prior embarking an that trip I contacted you regarding possibly increasing torque on the drive train (improving hill climbing ability) for the scooter. My wife had previously encountered problems in moving up sloping decks at yacht clubs we had visited. You sent me a higher ratio gear that I installed. With that change the scooter performed magnificently on the hills we encountered in Europe.

One of those hills was the footpath leading up to Neuschwanstein - I am confident you are familiar with this path. We also found the weight of the TravelScoot to be good. We found little difficulty in moving the TravelScoot on and off the city trams we used in, for example, Basel.

Last, let me again share our pleasure with the TravelScoot."

Respectfully,

Dennis L. Constant

" I tried other scooters for her but they were too big...she is not very tall...and she felt overwhelmed. We refer to the Travelscoot as being able to do the "Fred Flintstone Stop" if she has to. She likes having that kind of control.

We had this 79 y/o lady all over The El in Chicago, downtown Chicago, in and out of the subways and elevators and this was the very first weekend she had the scooter. She really enjoys it. And of course, all of her kids and grandkids had to have a go at it, too!

She is coming to Alaska to visit for a month and the first thing she asked me was if she could bring her scooter with her!

Thanks for your help."

Nancy Salois, LPN

"I just wanted to report on my first use of my TravelScoot:

It arrived Thursday morning, 1 hour before I left.  We took it out of the box, opened it long enough to get the manual out, zipped it back up and packed it in the car. 

When we arrived in Arlington, VA some 7 hours later and got into our hotel room, I finally had a chance to LOOK at it. 

As the batteries charged, (soon to find out that they were already pretty much charged) we got the scoot out and put it together...took maybe 10 minutes at the most. 

I then took my first ride around the Hyatt Crystal City to get used to it before riding it in the huge crowds to follow the next day.  Not ONE issue, except remembering to use the brakes-or at least being ready to.  I used it the rest of the week-end, running it hard and showing it off. 

It was much easier to use than my Revo, but I still had to leave it some places as the space between tables was tight.  I began using the SLA battery and used it all week-end and it was still "in the green" when we packed it back up.  I can't imagine how long the NIMH battery will last!!!

I can't tell you the feeling of freedom I now have since I have found that this is something I really can manage on my own.    Thank you so much for inventing these. 

I spent a lot of time talking to folks about the scoot and gave out the website a couple of times.  I hope they look at it.

Well, just thought I would let you know how it went.  As I have new experiences, I will send a note.  I guess you get these all the time though, huh?  Anyway...  "

Sincerely,

T. Deeb

"I can’t tell you the feeling of freedom I now have since I found the TravelScoot. I have told everybody that will listen about how my freedom came in a duffel bag! "

T. Deeb

"We received the TravelScoot yesterday...it is wonderful! It will certainly provide the mobility and convenience you advertise.  

It will be used for many adventures and trips by a handicapped individual. She already has a 3-wheel Pride scooter but it difficult to take on airplane trips and it heavy for road trips.

Your TravelScoot is just what we wanted...thank you, thank you. "

Terri Zammataro

"I want to let you know how thrilled I am with my Travelscoot.

My husband and I recently went to Germany to visit our daughter and son-in-law, they took us to so many places that I would never get to see without having the scooter.

It’s wonderful in the airport I went right to the plane.

Having the scooter have brought much joy and now I can keep up with everybody. A GREAT little machine!!! "
