Razor A3 Kick Scooter

I bought this for my daughter's 9th birthday. It replaces her older Barbie scooter, which although it was a good scooter, was pretty young looking. This is a big step up in quality and appearance, but is still fine for the younger ages. She is plenty big enough for it and didn't have any issues with it. I rode it a bit also and was happy that it's handlebars are adjustable enough for an adult or child. The wheels seem a little larger on this than on my other daughter's Razor. And the green color is really popular here. It rides very smooth and folds up nicely. When unfolded, all parts lock into position for a secure ride. Great product.

Two complaints:1) The scooter does not fold or unfold easily. There is a lever that requires significant force and multiple tries. I called tried other people's scooter, of this model and similar (A1, A2) and found the same issue. I called Razor customer service and after saying that it shouldn't be hard, said, "here are some tips that may help the issue..." which suggests that they have heard this complaint before. One of the tips (to pull up and away on the T-bar while pushing the lever, seems to help, but it is not easy nor does it work consistently.2) The scooter swings wildly when carried and not yet folded, resulting in nicked shins; the name "razor" is appropriate. It would be easy to provide for (an add-on or direct mechanism) that prevents this swinging but they have neglected to do so.My son is 5 and was previously a master of a 3 wheel scooter, flying down the block. This Razor has achieved the desired goal of slowing him down, but the problems above make me regret my decision.Update: it's still not great, but with time one gets the 'trick' of making it fold. Ya' still gotta watch your shins. I wish it could "click" in place for carrying so as not to swing wildly. And now, 6 months on, my son is just as fast as he was on a 3 wheel scooter.

Bought this for my daughter's 11th birthday to replace her old razor scooter. She needsed a new one since her older one has a lot of wear and tear. Bearings in the wheels are much faster than the old one. Scooter is much more durable. She needed one that was larger and this one is great. Tallest of all all the kick scooter models.Pros: Faster and larger. Better construction that original.Cons: Lack of colors to choose from.

I bought this for my six year-old daughter. I was impressed by the high quality materials used for this scooter. The scooter is light but still has some heft to it. It is not flimsy like the plastic inexpensive scooters. An adult can easily use it as well. The wheels spin very well and it runs smoothly. The only downside that I have with the scooter is that it can be difficult for my daughter to unlock it when it is folded. She has difficulty pushing the lever that lets you unfold it.

got this for my son's birthday and so disappointed to find the box been opened and damaged. Both wheels shows signs of use. There is also a small dent on the front bar. This is upsetting cause my son's been wanting this scooter. I don't have sufficient time to get him a replacement so I have to keep it!! If item is used or returned, shouldn't Amazon inspect the item before selling it??? or telling the potential customer that the item was a refurbished item??? Disappointed!!
