New Travelscoot Junior Mobility Scooter

I purchased a Travelscoot Deluxe Junior mobility scooter and accessories on Monday 22nd July 2019. I bought it from travelscoot.com in Germany from where it was shipped to England, via UPS, in a large, oblong, heavy cardboard box with a total weight of 60lbs.

Be advised, there are two types of Travelscoot Junior: the Shopper and the Deluxe. The Travelscoot Shopper is lighter, has smaller wheels and travels at a slower speed. It's best suited to riding on flat surfaces e.g. across a level car park and around a large shopping mall. The junior version of the Shopper has a very low seat making it ideal for children and those with achondroplasia.

First impression on opening the box is the high quality of the Travelscoot Deluxe Junior. It is larger and more substantial than I had imagined having viewed many images and watched several videos of this mobility scooter.

I'm no longer young but found it reasonably easy to lift the scoot out of the box and assemble it. It helped to have watched the Travelscoot unboxing video above, and though this is the unboxing and initial setup of a full-size Travelscoot Deluxe, it's nevertheless very helpful.
