7-yr old son enjoys everything but the recharge time.
My seven-year old son greatly enjoys riding this scooter. Everything is good except for the recharge time. We have to leave it up to charge the entire nite.

Razor E100 Electric Scooter
I got this for my son and he rode it non-stop for 2 days before it broke. The motor would not engage, so I called Razor and they sent me a replacement part. After a week of waiting and 2 hours on the phone with tech support, I installed a complete new electrical system. Turned it on, still did not work! Razor said they could send me another part to install myself, but did not guarantee that it would make it work either. So, I decided to save the time and trouble and returned it for a non-electric kid powered scooter and we are much happier with it. For us, the electric version was way too much time and trouble.

very very very fun
my grandma bought this for me. it is so fun. top speed is ten mph . i use it alot

Parts Game - do you want to play?
Here's my experience with this scooter: I bought it for my 8 yo daughter. It worked for exactly 1 minute and then the motor wouldn't turn anymore. The box says "Don't return to the store. Call the manufacturer and we'll take care of you". So I called Razor. The customer service lady had me go through the motion of "troubleshooting" the problem. She concluded "It's very common, the battery died because these things sit on the shelf too long, I'll send you new batteries." Two weeks later, the batteries arrived. It was not a trivial task to replace them. You have to disassemble the entire deck of the scooter and induced wear and tear on the screws and mounts. Charged it back up and guess what - NO GO. Called Razor for the second time. The customer service lady had me go through the motion of "troubleshooting" the problem. She now concluded "Oh, it's the wiring assembly to the batteries that's faulty. I will send you a new wiring kit." Two weeks later, the kit arrived. The same painful procedure to disassemble the scooter and install the wiring kit. More wear and tear on the screws. Charged it back up and guess what - NO GO. Called Razor for the third time. The customer service lady had me go through the motion of "troubleshooting" the problem. She now concluded "Oh, it's the fuse assembly that's faulty. I will send you a new one." Two weeks later, the fuse arrived. The same painful procedure to disassemble the scooter and install the fuse. More wear and tear on the screws. Charged it back up and guess what - NO GO. Called Razor for the fourth time. The customer service lady had me go through the motion of "troubleshooting" the problem. She now concluded "Oh, it must be the battery charger. I will send you a new one." Two weeks later, the new charger arrived. Charged it back up and guess what - NO GO. By now, I was convinced that the motor is fried and there's no fixing that. Called Razor for the fifth time. The customer service lady had me go through the motion of "troubleshooting" the problem. She now got all upset like it's my problem that nothing has worked. She suggested I take it to a lawn & garden shop to have a technician "look at it" at my expense. So here's the moral of the story: Razor will play the "parts game" with you to death until your return deadline with Amazon runs out. So, if your scooter doesn't work, send it back to Amazon ASAP. Do not pass GO and absolutely do not call Razor or your're SCREWED!!!

Just what I was looking for!!
This scooter is great. My daughter got it for her 8th birthday. I almost bought a slightly faster model, and I'm glad I didn't. The E100 is plenty fast enough for an 8 year old. She loves it!! We've had no trouble whatsoever with the battery. I'd heard that it helps to fully discharge it from time to time, so we do. She rides it during the day, we plug it in at night, presto. Only once has the battery run out before she was done riding. I highly recommend this really fun scooter!
