    1 Star Not What I Was Expecting
    When I was reviewing my order online it looked great, even had a 97% rating. When I got the work out ball the pump was missing the needle and the whole on the ball to pump it up was also missing a piece. No matter what I tried there was no way I could pump up the ball, so this was just a waste of money.

    5 Stars Great at home exercise.
    This ball and video were a great way to get a trimming work out without having to go all the way to the gym on days with little motivation.

    2 Stars Deflated before we got a chance to use it
    This was a disappointing purchase because the ball deflated before we had a chance to even try it out. We don’t know how it happened but there was a small cut on the side so it’s anything but durable. When I called the Firm’s customer service to report the problem, they said they couldn’t help me, that I’d have to call Amazon because I didn’t buy the ball from them directly. All I wanted was a patch but, again, they couldn’t help me. Amazon came through as always, providing a return label and a complete refund. I would recommend buying a real physio gymnic ball as we’ve had one for eight years by SkillBuilders and it still looks like new.

    5 Stars Solid, durable product.
    I bought this ball to use as a chair, and I’ve been very pleased with it. I’m a big guy in a house that frequently has a lot of kids, and the ball has held up extremely well to heavy usage.

    5 Stars Makes a great chair
    I use this as my desk chair at my computer at home. My back feels much better since I made the switch. And it is easy to take a quick stretch break while you are working.

    4 Stars GREAT!!!
    Great bike!!!

    The sual suspension really works and it is great to use

    Only problem is that the left shifter sometimes slips the chain off of the gear and has to be re-attached but that is very easy.

    I Love It!!!!

    5 Stars Excellent Bike and Excellent Price
    This is an excellent bike for $150. Worth every penny. Assembly took a few hours to tweek everything perfectly such as brakes and shifters. Next assembly would take about an hour if you have all tools and know what you are doing. Assembly instructions are not the best and could be simplified in 3 pages.

    Overall a good bike….mine WAS fun to ride but one day my friend and i were hitting a ten foot dirt jump and the rear suspension collapsed on the way up the jump which propelled me face first over the handlebars into the dirt. Now u can ride it because the little bar that runs perpendicular to the seat is press so hard against the tire that in cant spin AT ALL. Also the pedals are touching the ground. Maybe a good bike to tool around the neighborhood or some mild mtb with but not for dirt jumping and what not. I have emailed mongoose about spare parts…no reply so far.

    3 Stars Good Item
    It was a decent purchase. I received what i paid for. I had some technical problems when i put it together but nothing that you cannot solve by yourself. But overall, a great value.

    1 Star horribly made
    My husband put it together according to the plans but as we took it out for a spin first it wouldn’t fit on the bike rack on the car, we had to bungy it on. Secondly, I cannot turn the wheel without it rubbing my shoe. I am only 5′4″ so it is not like I am of abnormal stature. I feel I cannot even ride this bike.

    5 Stars My grandson Jake
    Jake thanks you for the many hours of funds he already enjoyed riding his razor. I thank you for a prompt delivery.

    3 Stars Fancy but not functional
    It surely is a fancy scooter I’ve ever seen.

    But it was too slow and even risky (handle bar) for my 3 yr old boy.

    Shipping was delayed, and the logo on the handle bar was printed on the back, and my boy kept asking me which way the handle was supposed to go.

    4 Stars all good
    Its really good, little one likes it a lot. I just wish it was little bit cheaper to deserve 5 stars.

    2 Stars Doesn’t glide but good stability
    We got the Razor Jr scooter for our 3 1/2 year old. You have to constantly kick to keep moving - it never glides like a classic Razor scooter. If you are looking for the stability of the 3 wheels with the glide of a classic Razor try the Mini Kick Scooter by Micro Mobility for around $75. If your kid is fairly coordinated and can balance then just get the classic Razor Scooter A.

    4 Stars Good starter scooter
    I bought this scooter for my 3 year old so he would have a good quality first scooter that also looked like his older brother’s Razor scooter. The first one that arrived in the mail had the plastic around the wheels broken off so we had to return it. The second one arrived and has been fine ever since but I worry about all the plastic. With a boy riding it (and one already arriving broken), I wonder how long the plastic will hold up. Considering the regular Razors are all metal, I’m not sure why the base and unerside has so much plastic on it. That’s my only complaint. Otherwise, it’s a great first scooter.

    5 Stars excellent item!
    I checked out the reviews before making this purchase as I was very hesitant about the safety of this scooter.

    In reality, my daughter is enjoying it tremendously for the 40 minutes every day. After that she rides her bike!

    It is a change, and fun, and as she outgrows it, the grandchildren will get it.

    Great value, and great fun! Of course, she is wearing a helmet and following the instructions.

    5 Stars Nice Scooter
    My 10 year old daughter loved this scooter so much she spent her own money to buy it. Of course I put it together and that took all but about 10 minutes. One thing that worried me is when it came it was in a box that looked quite damaged, but everything inside turned out to be just fine. She loves riding it and so far it seems to be a solid little machine. I would recommend one of these scooters to anyone.

    5 Stars Wow!
    My 7 yr old got this for his birthday and Loves it. The product is great price for the money.

    1 Star failed to start every time
    I purchased a Razor model 100 and charged it fully. Sometimes the motor would start and sometimes it wouldn’t. I returned it to Amazon and purchased two Razor scooters model 175 and they have worked flawlessly.

    1 Star Not Impressed
    My 10 year old son saved and saved for this and it doesn’t live up to the hype. We have had ours in the shop twice because it does not hold a charge- it is actually still there. Not sure if ours is just defective, but according to the person at the shop he sees a lot of them with battery issues. I don’t think the battery is strong enough for the scooter either. Our son does fall into the weight range. It only lasts about 30-40 minutes on a full charge when working correctly.
