Only Worked Once! on my review.

Purchased this for my grandson for Christmas. He opened it today as his gift he used it once and it worked. Turned it off to go inside for five minutes and turned it back on to ride it again and it will not turn on, plugged it in to the charger and the light on the charger will not stay on. Considering the cost of the product it is beyond ridiculous that my grandson only rode it once. Clearly the product is defective and not worth a dime. Filed a warranty claim on the Swagtron website and…

Great fun. Colors don't always match photos.

Good: Easy to learn - I'm 53 (in other words, older than the average user) and found that I could master this in about 5 minutes on a perfectly level, smooth surface. Decent battery life. Freaky quiet. Even more fun than it looks.Not so Good: Instructions - operation is a mixed bag; some instructions (changing mode from learning to standard) are different depending on whether you read the manual or watch the online video at swagtron.com. Indicators - after some trial and error to find out which

Pros
  • This balance scooter features an upgraded 250 Watt motor and gear stabilization for tighter control and downhill traction
Cons
  • It's not suitable for off-road use

Of the two hover-boards we ordered, one worked flawlessly for the whole of Christmas day and is working now, 4 days later. The other one'; however, had some sort of reduction gear (or other transmission part fail by Christmas evening, or only about 4 hours of operation. The machine's left wheel would shudder and grind to a halt so that it reminded me of a broken section of starter teeth in the ring gear when the starter motor pinion spins against the area where there are no teeth. It tossed my…

Poor Customer Service And Poor Battery life

Helped our 11 year old son purchase this to ride with other neighborhood boys during COVID lockdown. Purchased beginning of April 2020 and by start of June 2020 the battery would no longer hold a charge and it basically just quit working. After contracting Swagtron customer service and doing online return requirements, the unit was shipped back to them (thank goodness my husband saved original packing). We were told it would be 5-20 days for repair and unit would be sent back to us. It is now…

Pros
  • ‎Limited Warranty
Cons
  • The hoverboard is not waterproof

Nice and solid toy best in my review

The Swagtron worked well for the first two days, then began to fail constantly. The toy seemed very solid and responsive when it worked. However, the toy became impossible to self-stabilize and we simply could not recalibrate it properly after two days of trying with a level. The red warning light comes on and the device shakes which makes it quite dangerous and difficult to dismount. Customer support was no help and said to email support. Support said to send it back. So.sent it back last week

Pros
  • ‎11.48 Kilograms
Cons
  • It takes a long time to charge

I received my Swagtron today. 7 days after ordering it arrived in my doorsteps. At first I was very sceptical of this product itself because of all the negative publicity back in 2015 Holiday Season. But after making my diligence investigation I decided to go with this brand. First of all this is the 1st hoverboard available in Revain that is UL2272 certified. At first I have no idea what that is, I did my research and it truly is amazing all the test that this board hard to go through to make…

Pros
  • ‎Red
Cons
  • Its charging cord is flimsy and easily breakable

Great Battery Life, Super Sturdy & Daughter LOVES IT !

I searched high and low for the perfect hoverboard for my 10 year old daughter, for Christmas and I found it ! I really don't think I could've done better with any other hoverboard !For 5 days now, this hoverboard has been my daughters primary mode of transportation, when she goes to the bathroom, she's floating down the hallway on her swagtron hoverboard, lol ! She only charges it at night and that's it, she lives on it throughout the day, without losing battery power.It's super sturdy, it…

Pros
  • ‎88570_6
Cons
  • It's difficult to steer and control at high speeds

This is my first hover board purchase. I've been thinking about buying one for a year or so and this was a good deal and had great reviews so I jumped on it a few weeks ago. After having it for a week I purchased a second one so that both of my boys could have one! They are 8 and 9, it took them an hour or two of taking turns learning it and they were both very comfortable riding it around the house. After a day or 2 they were riding it to the neighborhood park and back and haven't been off of…

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • The LED lights are too bright and can be blinding at night

I bought this for my kids for Christmas in 2016 and so far the product is fantastic. My kids are 10 and 14 year old girls and have become pros in 2 months. This is our second board and much higher quality than the first one we bought. We purchased a $250 board at walmart and had to return it before they could even ride as it was defective.The product came in perfect condition and we charged it right away. The battery life is fantastic and seems to last days with indoor use. Outdoor battery life

Pros
  • Skates, Skateboards & Scooters
Cons
  • The hoverboard is quite heavy and not easily transportable

Not useful, but dangerous

This was exciting to think about, but it's too dangerous for all but children. It works poorly outdoors and is very heavy to carry when the battery dies. Not good for getting somewhere, and indoors it's easier to walk.

Pros
  • ‎Plastic
Cons
  • The hoverboard does not come with a warranty

Won't calibrate on my review.

I bought this to replace my old "no name" hoverboard, which works fine but isn't UL certified so I worry about it catching fire. I really wanted to give the Swagtron T1 5 stars. It is fully UL certified for the board, electronics, battery, and charger. It looks good, seems to be well constructed and feels solid, and the price is reasonable.But my T1 won't operate correctly. When I first tried it, even though I'm an experienced rider, the red light came on indicating it couldn't get into

Pros
  • Scooters
Cons
  • The Swagtron Pro T1 Hoverboard is bulky and takes up a lot of space in storage
