Pros and cons
iHoverboard
Pros
- Price from £99.99 puts the brand at 5 of 52 on the site, so entry is priced at the sharp end.
- Finance is available and the bike range tops out at £639.99, so the pricier frames can be spread rather than paid outright.
- Support runs on email, phone and chat with servicing in-house, and a spare parts shop lets wear parts be ordered directly.
Cons
- Suspension is absent on the scooter, so the ride suits smooth urban routes more than broken ones.
- Belt drive is absent on the bike, so the drivetrain is the part that needs regular attention.
- Battery capacity of 270 Wh ranks 16 of 20 brands on the site, well under 436.7 Wh.
Megawheels Electronics CO.
Pros
- Entry price of $159.99, well under the site median of €2,299.
- A 12 months warranty comes with a scooter bought on a small budget.
- A spare parts shop keeps tyres, brake pads and other consumables orderable without a dealer.
Cons
- Support runs on email only, so a fault means a written exchange rather than a call.
- Shipping covers US, so riders elsewhere pay delivery and any duty on top of $159.99.
- Braking is drum and regen, which gives less reassurance on a wet road than the hydraulic discs common among pricier rivals.
Who each suits
iHoverboard
Who it suits
- Commuters who want a kick scooter that folds and weighs 12 kg, so it can go on a train or under a desk.
- Riders buying scooters and bikes from one seller, with commuter, folding and step through frames, finance and a spare parts shop under the same roof.
- Readers who want an own-brand shop to put against iSinwheel and AOVO Official, weighing i9, i8, i9Max, i10Plus, iX5S against GT2 1200W, GT1 2026 800W, S10MAX 1000W, S9PRO 500W and AOVO T1 Pro, AOVO X9 Promax, AOVO X11, AOVO G2.
Who should look elsewhere
- Riders after a belt drive or suspension, since both are absent from the parts of the range described.
- Long-distance commuters, because 270 Wh sits well under 436.7 Wh for the site, so pack size is worth weighing against iSinwheel or AOVO Official first.
- Buyers shopping outside GB, DE and FR, where neither the range nor the service network reaches.
Megawheels Electronics CO.
Who it suits
- US commuters on a budget who want a folding scooter at $159.99.
- Riders willing to handle support by email in writing.
- Households wanting a 12 kg scooter that folds down and stores indoors.
Who should look elsewhere
- Riders who want help by phone, since support runs on email only.
- Anyone outside US, who pays delivery and any duty on top of $159.99.
- Buyers who want a wider model range can compare iSinwheel, which lists GT2 1200W, GT1 2026 800W, S10MAX 1000W, S9PRO 500W.

Questions about each
iHoverboard
What does entry cost, and can the bigger bikes be financed?+
Entry is priced at £99.99, which places the brand at 5 of 52 brands on the site for price from. The bike side is wider, with commuter, folding and step-through frames (commuter, folding and step through) and prices topping out at £639.99. Finance is available, so a larger frame can be spread rather than paid in one sum.
How far does one charge go?+
The folding scooter carries 270 Wh and a 30 km claimed range, a headline figure rather than an independent check. Larger bikes take 468 Wh, so the extra capacity sits on the bike models rather than the scooter. At 12 kg, the scooter is a short-commute machine with a 100 kg load limit for errands.
Megawheels Electronics CO.
How much does a Megawheels e-scooter cost?+
The entry price is $159.99, and it is a one-off purchase cost rather than a subscription. There is no rental tier or membership fee in the stated details, so nothing renews after the order. A 12 months warranty comes with the scooter, and consumables such as tyres and brake pads come from the spare parts shop later on.
How far does it go on one charge?+
Claimed range runs 30.6 to 70.8 km on batteries of 280.8 to 479.4 Wh, which covers a town commute or a cross-city trip rather than long intercity hops. The load figure of 120.2 kg shows there is room for a rider and luggage, so in practice the rider and the terrain decide the usable distance as much as the battery does.
