For many, a scooter is the way to a freer and fuller life. But which mobility scooter is right for your needs? What types of scooters are on the market? What are the differences between them and what is important to check before buying?
In this short article I will try to provide short and clear answers to all possible questions.
A scooter is just like a vehicle, and the same way you cannot compare a Mercedes to a Lada, so too when it comes to purchasing a scooter we must take the selection process seriously.
We at Movinglife recommend checking the following:
Who manufacturers the scooter? Is it a reputable manufacturer? Do they use only quality materials? Is the product innovative and offer advanced technology? Does the company that markets the product provide warranty and service? Does the product get good reviews? And no less important, can I try the product at home before buying?
The field of scooters is roughly divided into two types: Full-size scooters and folding scooters.
Each type has advantages and disadvantages. A large scooter will be more spacious but the size might also be a disadvantage because it will require a large storage space at home. In addition, it cannot be transported in the family car, and cannot join you on a flight. Therefore, a large scooter will not be suitable for those who plan to fly away on vacation, load it into the family car or go on a cruise ship with it.
In addition, it is not possible to enter malls, shops, cultural institutions or hospitals with a large scooter, so it may limit the user's daily life.
The main advantage of a folding mobility scooter over a large scooter, is the compactness that does not come at the expense of comfort or safety.
High-quality folding scooters - such as ATTO - offer the following features:
In the folded position (and also in the open position) it will take up very little valuable space at home.
It can be loaded into the trunk of any vehicle and travel with you anywhere.
It is approved for flight, and therefore perfect for a vacation or trip.
It allows access to malls, cultural institutions and hospitals.
When folded it can be rolled like a trolley suitcase.
Just like the automotive world, here too in most cases the answer is yes. Why?
We already understand that not all scooters are born the same, so investing in a more expensive scooter will ensure - in most cases - a higher quality product which uses fine raw materials without compromises. More expensive scooters use advanced technology that provides uncompromising safety and comfort. Our recommendation to all our customers is not to take a risk and not to compromise on cheap and inferior products.
ATTO by Movinglife are without a doubt the highest quality and finest designed folding scooters today.
They use advanced technology, are built from only the best materials, and are designed with the user's comfort and safety in mind.
All ATTO models fold in seconds to the size of a small suitcase, easily disassembling into two lightweight parts. They are approved for flight and cruises. And no less important, they look great!
