I am very impressed! I have been researching mobility scooters lately and finally found one that meets all my requirements. I need something small, lightweight, and can be easily folded. This mobility scooter was designed perfectly for that job. Although I still have some mobility, my hip hurts after walking for a few minutes, so getting a mobility scooter like this would let me stay out longer and enjoy my holidays again. Nice one, eFoldi.
It would be really helpful if these companies asked a potential customer to demonstrate their products so we can properly see how someone with limited mobility can cope with the folding, unfolding and actual driving of the vehicle. It is no help at all, to see a fully fit, healthy demonstrator lifting things with one hand and hopping over (that somewhat expansive) middle section like a spring lamb! Also I know my arthritic hands could not cope with having to use that motorbike style speed grip. Where do you put your feet? Nor shown here but another video shows foot pegs, again not ideal for arthritic or reduced mobility people nor very elegant for ladies! We don’t all want to sit with our legs splayed apart you know!. This vehicle has a lot of plus points, but an awful lot of negatives too. Needs some more thought and planning I feel, but a good starting point just not there yet. Finally, please interact and reply to these comments, people are asking questions or making suggestions and are receiving no feedback at all. Doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.
I agree totally. Although this video does good in demonstrating how to fold and unfold the Scooter. I just wondering when I actually wish to use it, where does my feet go. Thanks for the demonstration on how to fold and unfold.
Somebody with heavy legs how on earth can they lift there leg over the big front middle section also where do your feet rest. What is the Max load capacity I'm 33 Stone or 200kg/400lb will this be ok to carry my weight. Please can you let me know if it is sufficient or can point in right direction for a travel scooter that is suitable and can carry heavy people Iike myself. Thank you I hope you or anyone can help me please I live in Newcastle North East of United Kingdom.
Looks like a beautiful machine but, as a crippled person, I see two drawbacks for a sizable segment of possible clientele. You can't step through it to get on it. It will be hard for some folks to climb aboard. The other problem is having controls on two grips. People who have had, say, a stroke might not be able to operate the throttle on one side and, what I assume is the brake, on the other. And personally, with the way the key sticks out, I can see myself easily bending or breaking it.
There's little pegs on the front wheel that drop down. Extenders are also available. So your feet go either side of the front wheel like a chopper type motorcycle
@@davidcommins4179 I thought this might be the case but it would be nice to see it demonstrated. Time got wasted here, the full demo could have been fitted in. I do wonder if this great design needs some more tweeking to make it a more allrounder. For example if one could push a suitcase underneath it would be very helpful. Also the seat seems very low. All in all the design concept is good but when one compares it to other designs on the market I feel that this one could do with some more features.
@@GreyTigre then it would be the same as all the others. It's good to have choice. I trialed one. It works for me. It won't work for everyone. Other scooter styles didn't suit me. There's hundreds of scooters on the market. I bought this one as its the best for my needs. It won't suit everyone. It's not perfect. None of the others were perfect. But it's the best option for alot of people as it is.
The demonstration (talking) was far to long in between actually doing parts of the assembly. In fact when time was running out I was hoping to see a full collapse & fold up and also a full unfold and set up. Sadly no Also as someone mentioned the chair setup was not used. I kept waiting for the demonstrator to take a seat.
That's exactly what I was looking for. I'm researching the product for my elderly Grandparents, one of which has low lower body strength. Are you just supposed to swing your legs in the air?
I agree with a previous comment, I would like to the demo done by someone with mobility problems like mine. These fully able bodied demonstrators have not a clue what it is like for a disabled person. Seeing an able bodied person demonstrating really puts me off buying.
Quite ridiculous the demonstrator did not sit on the machine once and did not indicate the feet position which looks impossible for a disabled person. I found I was screaming at the video......."sit on the bloody thing" !!!!!
If one is able to put something ie bag, laptop in the back of the seat,then how comfy does that make the backrest of the seat ?and most importantly where do you put your feet ?
Where do you put your feet? What wattage is the motor? Will i5 climb very very steep hills, I live at the top of a very steep hill. From the seat to the handlebars seems a long wa6, and once again where do you put your feet.
I have had an Atto for 2 years now. Great for going to local destinations from your front door. Bought by my son for just under 3K. However, it is not that light and it needs to be separated into two parts for ease of lifting. I found it a bit too heavy for traveling on and off buses, escalators and steps. I like the look and ease of assembly of the Efoldi mk 1.5 and I feel it will make my travelling a bit easier as it is roughly half the weight than my Atto. I have seen used ones going for around £1,200 - £1,600 on Ebay but I feel it would be wise to bite the bullet and buy new for the warranty and after sales peace of mind.
Mint mozgássérültet nagyon érdekelne ez az összecsukható scooter amit a kocsi csomagtartójába betehetnék. Hol és mennyiért lehetne megvásárolni. Én Magyarországon élek Budapesten
Jeeeeez. Never mind the gymnastic straddling action. It’s far too low. I have osteoarthritis, amongst many disabilities, and am currently in line for double knee replacement..... even though I am incredibly fit there is no way I will be able to lower myself down to the seat. I would end up in a very undignified heap on the floor.
I am interested. But not till i see feet down and seat height looks like your sitting really low. One trick design, but it's it comfortable or too low sitting position 😢
The challenge should be to ride one of theses scooters on the Footpaths of Blackburn VIC Australia. I do not have much balance and find at time the condition of the paths disgusting. The Council loves trees which uproot the concrete paths. Then grind them down. (concrete paths) They are not then level. I have a similar scooter to the above. The problem I have is the brake which also cuts out the motor (rear motor) . It locks the wheel and skids. Crossing roads is a problem as the gutters are old and also uneven. Further problem is that the various govt bodies also dig up the paths to put in infrastructure. Please test them on uneven ground. They are fantastic in shopping centres. My friend who has two hip replacements cannot go on certain footpaths as his scooter gets stuck. Also my fold up scooter has an expanding bag at back with provision under the seat for a box. I purchased a fold up box for $2.30 au which I keep in the bag. Open it when I go shopping. Most of the paths are about 50 years of age and are only replaced when a new house/units are built. Next scooter will have suspension.
I'm sure there is such a thing as a lighter to a USB extension socket so you can plug it into the car if you don't have USB in the car. A lot of modern cars do have USB ports below the dash, where all the controls for the phone, satnav, radio, air conditioning, driving control Etc. is situated.
An interesting 'bit of kit' ! I am looking for a 'person trolley' (my phrase) - my first. I like this product. The demo (in a lounge room!!!!) was hugely deficient - wrong context, too too much repetitive and irrelevant 'spiele' (verbal exposition), and key items missing. As a former teacher of technical teachers I would not have passed this for 'teaching practice' ... but we could have worked to improve it ! Still like the 'kit' however ... but need to do a lot more checking out!
Ciao, è carino il modello, ma non capisco dove possono poggiare i piedi. Non credo sul pianale a tubi appena davanti il sedile, non sarebbe una posizione ergonomica. Forse mi sfugge qualcosa, cortesemente potete chiarire la mia perplessità. Grazie. Fausto
Its an awful lot cheaper than most of these scooters. I'm only 39, but I was diagnosed with Lymphoedema 5 years ago after surgery to fit a bone anchored hearing aid. This sounds exactly like what I'm looking for... but what's the weight capacity or maximum weight limit? Is there a plus size version?
This guy waffles on far to long lol. I work in the industry with quingo and you can't compare this looks awful for comfortability 3 wheelers are notorious for bad stability. Also most importantly where do your feet go. Yes folds well but comfort and stability is priority
Way to low to the ground, why don’t they consult people with disabilities when working with these Adults don’t want to be talked down to or worse still ignored. Before you buy go to a showroom and check out the weight.
Well I need a scooter desperately I purched one here for a great price but and again but it never came! I tried to get some info but never could , even PayPal tried but all they could do was give me my money back thank God for PayPal.
He gave us no important info, how much weight does it hold, how many miles does it go on one charge, where do we put our feet, why didn't he get on it, probably because it's not easy to lift leg over bar. This guy really needs to do a much better job on this demonstration. Also what is the cost and what are the dimensions.
The design is totally flawed. How on earth is someone with mobility issues able to step.overvtgst centre section and then balance themselves on this thing, legs outstretched and feet on this daft footpegs? It's a motorised kids soapbox.
It would appear from watching that the person demonstrating takes on the Train and all over the place. I do wonder if it is more for able bodied people for last mile comfort.
WHERE DO YOU PUT YOUR FEET?????????? $2600? I think I can do it for less, and from another comment, you're supposed to put your feet on two little bars on each side of the front wheel. Makes it hard as hell to turn, doesn't it?
Visit a welder or fabricator and ask them to make two detachable footplates which slot over the existing foot rests. Cheap and it works. Has to be detachable so they can both be removed when folding the Efoldi.
@@stevenhull5025 Lovely. I have to modify something to make it work for me? At extra cost? But, truthfully, your idea would probably work! Well, Steven, I found a Pride GoGo that weighs 71 pounds with a dry battery system that plugs into a regular wall socket and replacement batteries are $37. Has a 12-mile range on a full charge and maximum speed at 4 mph. That's good enough for me although I usually go much slower because I have a passenger! My scooter collapses to the size of a large suitcase, is very portable with four wheels. Now I gotta admit, here in Hawaii it cost almost $4000, on the mainland probably $2000. I am 82 and can drive it, and has a place for my service dog to ride on the floor. We are a wild pair on the sidewalks in Waikiki! Aloha, and thanks for trying to help!

Nowhere to put feet???
Need to see videos of you using it onn in different situations please
Great Demonstration. However, I would like to see the demonstrator in driving sitting position + also sitting on the static seat.
The demonstration (talking) was far to long in between actually doing parts of the assembly. In fact when time was running out I was hoping to see a full collapse & fold up and also a full unfold and set up. Sadly no
Also as someone mentioned the chair setup was not used. I kept waiting for the demonstrator to take a seat.

I am an amputee and the Efoldi has changed my life
Where do you put your feet?
It looks like it would be very difficult to lift a leg over the midline bar in order to sit on it,
Where do you put your feet once it is opened? I don't see any foot rest.
Quite ridiculous the demonstrator did not sit on the machine once and did not indicate the feet position which looks impossible for a disabled person. I found I was screaming at the video......."sit on the bloody thing" !!!!!
Where do you place your feet? That is one of the most important features!
On supports that fold down from the wheel!!
On both sides of the front wheel are footrests which can fold out.
It could have been shown and demonstrated.
Where do you put the groceries? That's the main thing I need it for.
On the back, where the backpack can go if you don't wear it behind you in the seat as extra padding.
I was going to buy one for my mum. After reading other comments I'm having second thoughts.
• Is it as stable as one with 4 wheels?
• No shopping basket?
• What incline % can it climb?
It could do with power to the rear wheels,then you could transport it as a power trolley..
I noticed that he didn't sit on it, where do you put your feet? :))
HOW MUCH IS IT? one minute in I still don't know?
Where do YOU put your feet to rest on...
I'm guessing it has fold down rests on either side of the front wheel.
Looks great but my partner would not be able to step over the frame between seat and front forks.
I am in korea. How can I place an order ? What is the price ?
Love love love the ground clearance
Bravo 👏
If one is able to put something ie bag, laptop in the back of the seat,then how comfy does that make the backrest of the seat ?and most importantly where do you put your feet ?
he did every thing but sit on it to show how small it is
Not once did you tell us how to get on and off it and where do you put your feet?
There are folding foot rests which are located by the front wheel
Is the handlebar adjustable?
Where do you put your feet? What wattage is the motor? Will i5 climb very very steep hills, I live at the top of a very steep hill. From the seat to the handlebars seems a long wa6, and once again where do you put your feet.
I'm moving on now to have a look at the "Atto" though it is rather expensive at over 4K.

Step over looks a bit tricky
What sort of price are we talking about
My only problem is how much it weighs? Then the price?
17Kgs. £2,600 new or around £1,250 second hand on Ebay.
Road legal?and no wing mirrors?
Maybe they can be purchased separately, like the airsafe batteries?
Would not be able to register it legally for road use as it is shown here. In UK.
Do you need a converter to charge in USA and do you ship product to Usa/
Jeeeeez. Never mind the gymnastic straddling action. It’s far too low.

How it feels driving it???
@@carmeladelaflor4820 very undignified for females
Maybe this scooter is not for you then‼️😳
Needs add on arms for helping us up and down
Where can I find a dealer and can you get hp for them thanks I have heart problem and a stroke but would be ideal for the car again thank you
Suspension or air tires please
It has both. The chap demonstrating here says the seat is sprung underneath and it has pneumatic tyres.
I am interested. But not till i see feet down and seat height looks like your sitting really low.
One trick design, but it's it comfortable or too low sitting position 😢
Where do you put your feet
What is the price please
You need an English version please.
Looks like ones legs would be quite bent up towards the chest.
Where are the foot rests
On front wheel
each side of the front wheel
Cost of item please
can i use a foldable grocery cart with this. I only use this for grocery. I dont do a car anymore. Please

Why don’t you sit on it and drive little bit for showing bumps test and legs placement.
Can it be charged plugging it in to your car ciggie lighter port

How much does it cost?
second hand for around £1,200 - £1,600 on Ebay. New £2,600 and no VAT if you are disabled.
Price?

Is it available on the uk mobility scheme???
How heavy can I be
wish they made this for non-old people. i'd get one, just not at 8MPH.
It is not just for 'old people' as you put it. It has a 4mph and 8mph mode.

...To much talking! ...Show the thing in action and show the feet rest... WORK ON IT!!
The lithium battery might be lightweight but the price definitely isn't. £500 is a lot of money.
I thought the same but one cannot put a price on one's freedom.

Don't think this is comfortable for your feet. 2 little sticks next to the wheels? People with bad feet is not their target audience.

It would appear from watching that the person demonstrating takes on the Train and all over the place. I do wonder if it is more for able bodied people for last mile comfort.
The enfold back rest is the worst on that thing not comfortable at all .
Pesante per il trasporto,per una donna! Ne posseggo una Ok ( Di Blasi) Non mi dà autonomia per il trasporto in macchina. Per il resto più che OK 👏👏✋
Please spend more time and have camera focus in on what levers or buttons you are pushing to fold and unfold tiler, wheel, seat etc.
I bet this is way over priced.
