Consumer Feedback

"Recieved scooter and unit had a bent wheel. This caused scooter to have a bouncie ride. Recieved a new wheel X-Treme in about a week. The Brake was smaller causing unit not to stop. X-Treme sent new assembly. I have spent 2 weeks waiting for parts and doing all the labor myself. I personally don't think that's right for a new unit."

"...the 360 scooter is a FANTASTIC CONCEPT with lots of safety features, but it is not well made. If there is anything wrong with it, you are in for a LONG adventure. You are better off paying more for a simpler scooter that works. I test-drove the I-Zip and the Go-Ped for comparison, and even though the batteries were only partially charged at the dealership, the scooters went twice as fast as my 360."

"Do Not Buy this Scooter. We purchased ours in May 2008 - stopped working just after the 90 day warranty offered by Urban Scooter. Replaced the Controler in September, worked for 2 more weeks, broke again and guess what x-treme scooters do not offer warranty on parts."

Scooterless - Amazon.com

"Don't buy anything from this company. It will break within weeks and they won't support it. They are cheap Chinase made products and they don't know how to repair them or diagnose problems."

G.Johanning - Amazon.com

Based on the above consumer testimonials, we can say that the Xtreme X 360 is an unreliable electric scooter that most customers have serious problems with. The concept is good, but the execution is flawed.
