Our verdict on each
Egret
Egret is a German scooter maker whose folding models sit in the middle of the price field, with prices from €399 and a claimed range of 100 km. It suits riders on a long commute who want a road legal kick-scooter in Germany plus spare parts and warranty from one company.
Mangosteen
Mangosteen suits riders who want fat-tire grip and a removable battery at the low end of the price range, priced from €488. The catch is what sits around it: a narrow fat tire line-up, direct-only sales and a battery warranty of 1.5 years.

Pros and cons
Egret
Pros
- A 949 Wh battery with 100 km of claimed range, and a battery rank of 4 out of 20 brands.
- Suspension is fitted and folding is listed as yes, so one scooter covers rough commutes and train travel.
- Warranty of 24 months plus a spare parts shop, so wear parts come from the maker that built it.
Cons
- Support runs on chat and help centre only, so there is no phone line for anyone who wants to talk a fault through.
- Road legality is listed for de only, even though shipping reaches DE, AT and FR, so riders elsewhere must check local rules.
- At 21.8 kg it needs a two handed lift onto a rack or platform rather than a quick carry up a stair.
Mangosteen
Pros
- Entry price of €488 sits under the €876.09 typical of brands listed here
- Removable battery and a throttle make top-ups and standing starts easy on the listed models
- Hydraulic disc brakes, tubeless tires and suspension are standard fittings rather than paid extras
Cons
- Sales run direct, so a test ride or workshop visit has to be arranged with the company itself
- Finance is not offered, so the full €3,999.99 has to be paid up front
- Support runs on email and phone only, with no chat or help centre listed
Who each suits
Egret
Who it suits
- Riders on a long daily commute who want 100 km of claimed range without moving up to a seated or moped style vehicle.
- Anyone in Germany who needs a road legal kick-scooter and wants spare parts sold by the same company.
- Riders who load their scooter into a car boot or train rack and can manage a two handed lift of 21.8 kg.
Who should look elsewhere
- Ticket hunters, because Egret ranks 25 out of 52 brands on price, so isinwheel is worth pricing alongside it.
- Riders outside Germany, because road legality is listed for de only, so aovo-official is the one to check against local rules instead.
- Riders who want a phone helpline, since contact runs through chat and help centre and nothing else.
Mangosteen
Who it suits
- Riders on sand, snow or rough tracks who want fat tires without a premium price
- Commuters who can charge a removable battery indoors and want a throttle for stop starts
- Buyers who would rather order online and fit parts themselves than visit a dealer
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone wanting a dealer-supported test ride, as sales run direct
- Kalkhoff buyers who want city, hybrid, step-through or eMTB shapes rather than fat tire only
- Tern riders who need cargo, commuter or folding formats, none of which Mangosteen lists
