eFOLDi Anmeldelser 

The staff genuinely make you feel as if they have your best interests at heart. I feel as if you can trust them and i'm buying the right product for me.

The gentleman who came to see us was incredibly patient and helpful. He showed us all of the models and we chose the Explorer. Looking forward to day trips again.

Had a home demonstration from Cliff. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Good product, well build, will consider purchase in the future. Thanks Cliff, Graham Newark, Notts

I love the fact that it can be lifted easily into the boot and is so compact.

As I've stated i did not buy scooter second hand as if this makes a difference it still doesn't take away from the fact to scooter is dangerously unstable you are one accident away from a law suit

It has now been over a year since I got my eFoldi Lite Scooter. It has completely changed my life for the better.

When I got my scooter I was 7lbs below the maximum weight range of the scooter, I did worry that the scooter would not take my weight. But I was reassured with the one year guarantee.

I have been using my scooter every day since. Going to work on my scooter, getting on and off two buses every day. Driving over some rather uneven pavements, which seem to be every where. I am so glad my scooter has nice big back wheels and air filled tyres.

It's fantastic that the scooter folds up so easily and can be wheeled along behind you, as there are NOT always drop kerbs to allow you to cross the road where you want to cross. So I just fold my scooter up and walk across the road, wheeling the scooter behind me, then on the other pavement it takes 2 seconds to put my scooter up again.

I am a 56 year old female, I can only manage to lift the scooter an inch off the ground. But I have seen other women lift the scooter higher.

When in a tight corner maneuvering the scooter I often just put my feet on the ground and lift my bottom off the seat of the scooter and just lift the front or the back of the scooter and move it an inch or so. This has got me out of some tight situations. (it would be so good if I could do that when trying to park a car!).

The scooter also opens lots of conversation with members of the public who are impressed when they see me put the scooter up in 2 seconds.

When I bought the scooter I did worry that I wouldn't be able to put it up and down. But after being left on my own with the scooter, with a video of sales person putting it up and down and my written instructions, I was able to do it. Over the next couple of days I practiced putting the scooter up and down several times a day, now I don't even need to think about how to do it.

I live in the London area, not the wettest part of the country, but when it rains, it rains. Over the past year I have been out on my scooter several times when there has been very heavy downpours. I have a large cape that I have rolled up and tied to the back of the scooters backrest. I just put the cape over me and the handles of the scooter and it has prevented my scooter from being drowned in rain water.
As soon as I am out of the rain, I dry the scooter off, especially the foot rest area. I remove the battery and make sure there is no rain water in the battery hold (I have found several droplets of rain water in the battery hold, I just wiped it dry with kitchen paper and put the battery back in the battery holder). No problem.

I did have a little problem with my scooter. A cable snapped on it. I contacted the supplier I bought the scooter from, who would have got a replacement scooter to me in 4 days, then they would have needed to order the part, which would have taken more days. This was not convenient for me, as I use my scooter every day.

So I contacted the main UK supplier of eFoldi at SunTech UK Ltd in Redhill.
They gave me an appointment that day. I traveled there by taxi and train. When I arrived, they dealt with my scooter straight away. They had all the parts for the scooter on site, it took them 15 minutes to fix it. Brilliant service!

There is no doubt in my mind the next time I need to buy a mobility scooter it will be an eFoldi Lite from eFoldi at SunTech UK Ltd in Redhill.
As their customer service is brilliant and they have the parts and skilled people on site to sort out any problem.

As we arrived on Tuesday for our repair and service the lady receptionist was ready for us. The technician came out to discuss our requirements. The receptionist suggested we visit
The Priory garden centre to pass the time until it was ready. They called us a couple of hours later to say it was ready, again the technician came and explained everything he had done on our Efoldi lite. They provide a high level of service rarely found these days. We had one of the first lite models and taken on planes, cars trains, buses and cruise ships. We just love it!

It's way to expensive 😭 not everyone can afford that what about people who can't walk far like me I had to put a date so I could put this up won't get the chance to try it can't afford it 😭

I can't praise the staff of eFoldi enough for their help in sorting out storing my scooter inside the Atherton Leisure Centre. Two weeks ago I was approached by a member of staff (later found out he was a Manager) who advised me that I was not allowed to park my scooter inside of the building because of the battery. I contacted eFoldi to ask about the safety of the scooter. They promised to look into the matter and on the 20th March I received an email that I was allowed to take my scooter into the Leisure Center; this was confirmed by email sent to Cathy at eFoldi, from the Managing Director of the Leisure Centre.

Popped in to have brakes adjusted on my efoldi, superb service as before.

I’ve read reviews on here but now after 5 years experience with the company. I thought a more insightful review was merited
The scooter is OK except for a serious design fault.
While riding mine down a hill the brake cable snapped and there was no way of stopping it. I ended up shooting out into a road without any means of stopping. I can tell you, it was a terrifying experience. Thankfully there was no traffic on the road, otherwise I wouldn’t be here to write this review. I now worry every time I go down a hill
When I told them I wanted it serviced they told me the cost of the service including £60 carriage. I told them that they should pay the £60 carriage fee because it had to come back for the brake cable repair under their guarantee anyway. After some arguing I gave up and phoned again and organised for the scooter to go back to them for the repair and they then agreed to pay the carriage charge. After that was organised I asked if they’ll service it at the same time. That was the only way to get them to pay the carriage. They were being greedy because the scooter had to go back under guarantee anyway

Then there’s the battery. I ordered a new one costing £600. The one they sent was a used one. When I complained they made some pathetic excuse and told me that when they got it back from me they would send me a new on out, which left me without it for longer than it should have been. I’d paid them £600 and then they wouldn’t send the new one until they’d received the used one back. They don’t trust their customers even when they get it wrong

Then recently while out, the bottom A frame snapped in half. I phoned to get a price for fixing it and they informed me that they don’t hold parts for this scooter anymore but thankfully they said the part I needed was similar to the one on the replacement scooter. They told me the part was £100 and carriage was £60 and one hours labour at £70
They then sent an email and unfortunately, I didn’t read it completely because I saw the figure of £280 and as I was expecting something like that I just assumed that was the total price. It turned out that the £280 was for 4 hours labour. It ended up costing me £446 for a repair that should never have snapped in the first place.
They charged me all this even though the part was a replacement for a newer model and not for the scooter I actually had
I reported it on the efoldi facebook page and it seems to be a regular problem. When on facebook, after a few comments they made sure they had the last word and then turned commenting off so I couldn’t respond. I’m so glad that when it snapped I wasn’t out on my own, I don’t know how I’d have managed otherwise.

After the above, I would not recommend efoldi scooters because the company is greedy, don’t trust their customers, they’re rude. and the scooter is dangerous

Since writing this review I was contacted by Efoldi and the man I spoke to wasn’t rude but pleasant. He refunded the excess £210 and apologised

I've had my Efoldi scooter for nearly 5 years. I wouldn't buy another. It's been in twice for repairs to dangerous parts. One was the brakes that failed suddenly, the other was when it literally snapped in half at the frame when I was riding it. I am well under the weight limit for this machine. Fortunately when it snapped in half I was with my husband and some friends. So they helped me off it as the steering column was falling in towards me, almost trapping me in the seat. Then I sat on a wall while someone brought the car. The scooter was such a mess that it took us ages to get it in the car due to the tangle of cables. It's not a practical scooter. I only keep it because it folds up so small. You need both hands all the time for steering and the difficult twist-grip throttle. So if you get a phone call you have to stop to answer as you can't take your hand off the handle bars and drive with just one hand. It's too expensive for the design and comfort level and the seat is not adjustable so a small person can't sit back on it. I have to sit without support on my back or take a thick cushion. The batteries are unbelievably expensive and only give good power output for about 3 years. One good thing is they are lightweight so if you keep your old one you can take both to extend your trip. I've had several flat tyres but they can be fixed with an ordinary bicycle repair kit. I would definitely NOT RECOMMEND this expensive, weak scooter. how it got a design award I'll never know.

I have previously written a glowing review about the wonderful service provided by this Company & now another one! They really are second to none! I passed by on the off chance requiring a part on my husband's EFoldi Lite battery to be repaired! With a smile & absolutely no hesitation Darren took the battery to the service department within minutes it was repaired & as good as new at no additional cost! Rarely do you get such service in these times! The scooter is fantastic too! Ditto all the good reviews of this Company & their product!

A warning before you buy

These may be designed in the UK, they are made in China &: available for less than £400 each from China based websites, prices start at £279. NOT the £3,000 that the efoldi con merchants are charging

These efoldi mobility scooters are far from stable, their batteries are mostly high mounted and/or they have a very narrow track

Don't buy any of the efoldi range, there are far superior offerings from other companies that are far more stable, have a better range/battery life & are less than half the price

All of the so called customers in the efoldi UK TV ads are am-dram actors who undoubtedly received an efoldi as payment to class then as a customer-- they appear in other TV ads

Don't get ripped off by efoldi, buy from elsewhere or buy one direct from the Chinese manufacturer for a 90% discount on what efoldi charges for their nasty items

We bought an Efoldi Lite and it changed our lives. I can put it up and down easily for my husband. I love it when we are on a bus I get up first pull the Efoldi off while my husband gets off. By the time he is off its up and ready, and the bus drivers just look amazed. We have been to so many places on the train in the last year which we would never have been able to do without it. After sales service is second to none, always on the end of phone to answer any questions. Fantastic company. Highly recommend

This was given to me as a gift. I am 81KG and 187 cm I find this too small for me. Battery range is well less than what is specified, went flat after 9 km after being fully charged prior. Very flimsy and Not worth the extremely expensive retail price. honestly, the specifications don’t match the price .. I highly recommend not purchasing one of these through my experiences. There are stronger less expensive options out there. Good luck.

Absolutely LOVE my efoldi lite - it has given me my mobility and my life back!! The customer service is excellent too, the nicest small UK company they go above and beyond to help with any issues, repairs, queries - whether that be the Facebook online forum or in the shop in person. I had a service last year and the scooter was returned good as new and was sparking! Also just recently needed a slight repair which the engineer fixed on the spot, no problem and gave me some great tips too! Cant speak highly enough about the customer service.

As for the scooter, I have taken it on flights to Australia, Croatia, America, driven it on dirty pebbly paths, grass - and it’s still going strong. It’s extremely portable, as others mentioned a really small turning circle to get into tight spaces in most shops etc. It’s honestly been life changing and I can’t imagine what I would do without it!

My Efoldi went in for repair. When I recieved it back, not only was it all fixed but they had cleaned it all up for me as well. I had mud on the tyres etc & they were spotless. They didn't have to do this & I didn't expect them too. So it was a lovely surprise & I feel they went above & beyond my expectations.

E foldi lite
Mobility, scooter, I found it unstable on pavements, which had slight inclines?
Maybe because of three Wheels t am not sure.
The armrests became loose.I had to tighten one side but unused.It became loose again and I lost the bolts and washers On one side the other side became lo6, so I had to use a bungee chord. to tie up so. I didn't lose any more.
I took on a cruise As I thought , compact and easy to fold , which ir was. .
I found it ok On a flat surface bat as soon as any slight slope it became very unstable, l had a problem on one occasion as I was going along a pavement it was uneven and the scooter tipped over resulting in some nasty bruises

I bought the scooter because of itsv compsct size and easy folding. To take in the boot of the car for my ability to shop and accesd without relying on a cafer fir independence
I was overall disappointed in the efoldi lite and wish lhad did some extra research prior to buying it was an expensive mistake and experience.

I love my efoldi explorer and it's still going strong since 2019. Portable and with a small enough turning circle to use in most shops etc as well as high enough ground clearance to cope with paths and grass. Efoldi customer service is excellent, quick replies, a Facebook group. I recently had a service and problem fixed by engineer Will. Super helpful, small UK company who really care!
