Can someone tell me the weight limit?? My husband is 5'7 and 200 lbs and he wants a scooter. Would this be okay for him??

I believe it's 300 lbs so it should work. It's manufactured by the same people who make the scooters for grocery stores and malls.

My friend who's about 5'7" and maybe 190 lbs used it just fine for a semester at school, going up and down hills. He never had a problem.

I'm 6' and was about 215lb when I got mine, and it was never an issue. I've been really happy with it. My daughter was 4 last year and used an off the shelf toy scooter, but I'm thinking of getting her her own Razor so we can start a gang and terrorize the neighborhood ;)

hi- I don't know the weight limit but I will tell you that mine caved in after one season and I weigh 130 lbs. I have since thrown it away and have replaced it with a gardner scooter made out of rotationally modeled plastic - like Little Tykes toys. I wouldn't buy this one if I were you.

Honestly this unicycle has a weight limit on it from 125lbs I believe. Therefore I don't recommend you on it.This was bought for my daughter and she loves it. I have been learning with her and use a sturdier 20" which could support my 170lbs. Though the last couple weeks I have been using a 24" unicycle and have been happier with it. I'm 5'11" am trying to balance between the unicycles myself to find what's good for an adult to ride on, so far the 24" is winning.

Hi, our son is 7. He has had this scooter for over a year now, and it is still just as awesome as it was the day he got it! He'll be using this until he decides he doesn't want to ride scooters anymore (if that ever happens). That speaks to how well-made these scooters are. Plus all of the parts are replaceable at a reasonable cost so should you ever have to replace something just go to the MaxiKick website and order it! We love these scooters -- definitely a good value for the money (we've purchased 3 so far)! My husband and I even enjoy taking them for a ride every now and then! ;)

This a great little scooter. It has a great turning radius, unlike some of the others. It's is rather small tho, but my father who is 6 ft fit on it ok, but he is not heavy. An overweight person may have more trouble. The person using it does have to have the ability to climb onto it and climb off. This was a problem for my dad. We ended up returning it for that reason, and also my father has dementia and couldn't figure out how to drive it, although it is really simple to drive. There is just one control. You push it forward and the scooter goes forward. You pull it back and the scooter backs up. You let go and the scooter stops. Hope this helps.

My daughter is an average-sized 9 year old and she has it in the highest setting. I would go with a bigger scooter

His legs would have to be bent all the way. I am 5'6" and I ride my daughters and it is not uncomfortable. Just picture his knees bent up next to the steering wheel. . According to the manual the weight limit is 140 lbs.

I would say if you want a scooter--get one with adjustable height handles. Can adjust the height. I cannot remember if this scooter has adjustable handles.If this does not have adjustable height handles...do not buy! He will be hunched over! I have 2 Razor scooters...both for my 9 year old son...who is 52 or 53 inches...smidge over 4 feet and even he complains the handle bars need to be higher.Try the Y Fliker. It has high weigh limit...lots of fun/great exercise! Or get a scooter that has handle bars you can adjust the height on....

I am 180 lbs and the scooter did not make it up steep hills without losing most of its battery power. this scooter is not really meant for adults and not meant for steep hills.

I ride my sons scooter sometimes with no problem and I am 110lbs. I would not recommend it for kids or adults over 130lbs.

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.

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.

Hey Robin, my GS is 135 lbs and it's plenty sturdy for him. I highly recommend this name brand scooter.

I am not sure what the recommended weight limit is. My son is only 8. I know my husband has ridden on the scooter but not for long intervals. I am sure it would work but over time the motor may give out sooner.

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.

I'm not sure what the maximum weight limit is, but I'm almost 200 pounds and use the scooter just fine.

Just looked up the manufacturer website it is indeed 300 lbs. http://www.pridemobility.com/scooters/gogoelitetravellerplus.asp I've been very pleased with it, esp. for outings with family to amusement parks, zoos, gardens ... Added bonus: I could sit our 4 year old grandson on my lap when necessary! :)
