About us
A buying guide for people choosing a scooter for themselves or for someone they love.
A lot of people shopping for a mobility scooter are not shopping for themselves. They are buying for a dad who stopped going to the store because the parking lot got too long, or a mom who wants to keep her Saturday at the outlet mall. They want to get it right the first time, because a scooter that's too heavy for the trunk or rated too low for the rider ends up in the garage. We built Best Mobility Scooters for them.
What we do
We compare 14 mobility scooters from 7 makers (Journey, Pride, Golden, EV Rider, Solax, Vive, Drive) on the things that actually differ: the price on a given day, the heaviest piece you have to lift, the range per charge, the weight capacity, whether the battery can fly, the warranty and the top speed. Each scooter gets one score from a published formula, and every review says plainly who should skip it.
Who writes it
The site is written by our editorial team. Tom Becker (editor, mobility scooters and travel aids) signs the reviews and articles. We read every product page, spec sheet, owner's manual, warranty and delivery policy we cite, note the date, and write down what each maker and seller states, including the parts that are less flattering.
What we don't do
We don't give medical advice and we don't repeat health claims as our own. Whether a scooter is right after a fall, a surgery or a diagnosis, and how much someone can safely lift, are questions for a doctor or a physical therapist.
How we make money
Some links are affiliate links: if you buy through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes our scores. See the disclosure.
