Probably the greatest advantage of the lightweight scooter is that if you come across an obstacle such as a flight of stairs that would be impossible to navigate with a heavier scooter, the lightweight scooter can simply be picked up and carried. This is particularly useful if you live in a city or area that is not well equipped for disabled people, where wheelchair ramps are not a common practice. Lightweight scooters also have marvelous maneuverability, and most can do a 180 degree turn – something which any disabled person who has had to use a lift will appreciate.
In terms of transportation, most lightweight models pack up into much smaller spaces and can easily fit in anything from a car boot to a hand luggage hold on a plane. Some models even break down to a size that would fit into a carry bag.
The main advantages, therefore, are their light weight, their maneuverability and their ease of transport. Ideal for people who travel a lot or who have limited storage space.
Disadvantages include not being as suited to road use or rough terrain, therefore not the best option for the rugged outdoors fanatic. They are also not recommended for particularly tall or large people due to their compact nature.
