What customers say about "Key Specs"
Swagtron T1 Electric Self-Balancing Scooter
- The Swagtron was a gift for my 12 year old, but it's a big hit with everyone in the family! It's easily mastered, has a smooth ride and the speed is just right.
- I bought this as gift to my daughter on her 13th birthday. With in 10 min she able to make and in an hour she became an expert in handling this including make speed,balance adjustments.
- Great hover board! The two speed options worked out really wonderfully for my children (and me too - yes I tried it and I did it!).
- At first it worked great. But after a few days my 9 year old daughter noticed it was starting to vibrate at certain speeds.
- Product works great, but just stops when the speed gets to high. Need to be careful when going down a hill lol.
Swagtron T5 Classic Entry Level Hoverboard for Kids and Young Adults
- The rubber wheels are nice and easy on our hard wood and tile so my son can ride it with ease.
- Good speed, fast charging.
- I am not sure what the top speed is, but it goes plenty fast.
- This product lasts about 2 months then the wheel starts making a grinding sound.
- After the first few rides we noticed one of the wheels slanting in and it was loose which led to it rubbing the wheel covering.

What customers say about "Perfomance"
Swagtron T1 Electric Self-Balancing Scooter
- The charging is quick, and having learner mode helps, which slows down the speed to learn balancing, before using full speed (which I haven't tried yet). Overall, a well made product.
- This works very well. Battery last a long time, and my daughter absolutely loves it. She has had no problems so far (had it about a month).
- I like the fact that the battery is now protected so I'm not worried about fires. Plus my daughter loves how fast it charges. It's a great hover board!
- This one meets the toughest UL standard for fire safety while charging the battery. So I'm not worried.
- The auto off feature is good for saving battery life. Battery is solid and has held up great without needing charges every day.
Swagtron T5 Classic Entry Level Hoverboard for Kids and Young Adults
- Charges quick and the charge lasts a good amount of time.
- The battery seems to last forever.
- Runs great and for a long time, once its fully charged.
- Very smooth and quiet. Battery life when fully charged is about an hour.
- The Battery on this product is already not functioning after only a few weeks of use.
- It started beeping and wouldn't charge only a couple of months after buying it.
- Was working great at first then all of a sudden the battery started going out and now no one rides it.

What customers say about "Features"
Swagtron T1 Electric Self-Balancing Scooter
- It is a perfect "starter" hoverboard as it has a learning mode and a standard mode. He also loves the LED headlights and Mom loves the rubber bumpers!
- This one had LED lights which creste a cool factor. No battery issues so far, which charge it for a couple of hours and then unplug it.
- The tires are nice and sturdy and the surface for his feet is sufficient.
- It has left black skid marks from the tires against walls that she's scraped. For the most part, I was able to wipe the black marks away.
- Now the fun part, learning how to ride this thing is not a work in the park. The first time I tried it, I almost fell.
Swagtron T5 Classic Entry Level Hoverboard for Kids and Young Adults
- This board is great. But only had it for a week and one tire is loose.
- Runs quiet, appears to be VERY sturdily built frame/wheels, nice rubber on tires.
- With the learning mode it took my 8 year old 5 minutes to learn.
- I like how the tires are solid rubber and not inflatable.
- Tire started to make grinding noise and and won't work.
