The age for this scooter is?

i bought it for my daughter when she was 2 years old. She is a bit taller than the average for her age and tall people are usually having some issue with balance but all went fine. She is now 3 and already jumping along with it

My son was much too large for it at 6, towards the upper end of the weight limit the scooter will want to flip forward if you hit a crack on the sidewalk or similar. This is a scooter for little kids, not really for when they get more mobile, the larger scooters are less likely to flip forward. The issue with this one is the extra stability in the front causes kids to put all their weight up front making it want to tip forward.

3 1/2 to 6. My kids absolutely love this scooter. Much more so than others. It's stable and turning is great. Highly recommend it.

Definitely at 3 years old, the toddler will like it. At 2 1/2, the toddler may start to play with it.

I purchased 3 for my grandchildren.My 2 year old is just starting to get the feel of it.Scooting about on his own.My 2 1/2 year old tears around carparks like a dare devil. So comfortable and carefree on it. A pleasure to watch.My 5 year old has had it for 2 years and I'm quite sure she will have it for a few more. The scooters have great durability and after much research I am so happy I purchased these.

Starting with 2 and up to 15, my youngest was 1 year when she started riding it but the older kids gave her a better idea of how to use it earlier than most kids would figure it out. I ride it on occasion and I'm 40.

Hi Rose - Most Pro style scooters are for ages 8 yrs and up - it will be a bit too big/heavy for your 5yr. Customer Care - Universo Extremo BoardsLINK to ALL SCOOTERS: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=me%3DA3RAHGQK0SYUI5&field-keywords;=Scooter

Age requirements are strictly a function of local laws, rules, regulations, etc. Consult your local police or state department of motor vehicles for guidance applicable to your specific situation. All that said, if there are no laws/rules/regulations governing legal age requirements for someone to operate this 1000 watt scooter, I'd recommend kids be 10 or older with appropriate safety gear and adult supervision. My son was able to safely operate our scooter when he was 10. Use common sense, too; if your child is 10, but not very physically coordinated, then you might want to rethink the situation. This scooter is capable of moving average adults at ~20mph, so smaller kids will zip along even faster.

It depends on your child's ability. Neighbor's son who is five have been riding on our scooter and he handles it well.

Sorry, just saw your question today. We bought these for our Grandboys that were 3 and 4 at the time,but there sister older sister rode these as well. She was 8. These were the best quality scooters we could buy and the boys are still riding them. I would buy them again. Hope this helps.

I think it will last a couple years. My grandson is hard on scooters and had to send a few back but this one is built well so I think it will last.

My 7 year old boy rides it just fine... and my 13 year old son has also puttered around on it. The 7 year old actually prefers it over his Razor scooter (to our surprise!). Be aware, though - the handle bars are a SET height - no raising or lowering like you can on the Razor.

Hello. I have a four year old whom loves this scooter. It is very stable with a wide base for little feet. It is easy for her to use and propels smoothly. The wheels have held up perfectly on both bricked and paved driveways. I'm sure you wouldn't be disappointed.

My oldest son who is 11 bought this scooter this fall. He loves it!! He has two younger brothers who are 9 & almost 8 (January birthday). Both of them are able to ride it. I am a bit nervous about the youngest one, so I only let him ride on it if I am outside with them. They wear their helmets and the younger ones drive pretty safely. The 11 year old is the "wild one" that I have to keep on. It seems pretty safe to me. I don't let my youngest go down our driveway. We live in the country and our driveway is long and fairly steep. Hope this helps :-)

Mine started using hers right at her fourth birthday. It really just depends on their motor skills. The big thing isn't so much being able to balance it, but being able to have control over the front wheel/steering. It is *very* easy to turn the entire scooter sideways and fall over.

I use my kids scooter (like this one) and I am older than 40 ;) If you plan on doing tricks, or need a heavier duty scooter, look at the Shaun White Scooter, although the handlebars come at a lower fixed length.

Hello! Sorry but I can not advise you if the scooter is or not appropriate for an 8 year old child ... my son is 5 years old and it is perfectly fine for him. I am not sure if the scooter will be suitable for him when he's older.

My son bought it and he is 13. I think my 7 year old son likes to ride on it just fine. The handle bars might be a little bit high (unless he is a tall 6 year old), but it is a great scooter. It rides well on our gravel driveway.
