Hover-1Ultra Electric Hoverboard - 9MPH Top Speed, 9 Mile Range, 400W Motor, Long Lasting Li-Ion Battery, Rider Modes: Beginner to Expert, 5HR Full Charge Self Balancing Scooter

This was a gift for my 11-yr-old daughter to replace her previous hoverboard (different manufacturer). The previous one had terrible battery life and would beep incessantly. Complaining that it needed to be charged regardless of how much it had been. Super frustrating.This one does none of that. It comes off the charger as it should, ready to go, and lasts for at least an hour of pretty steady use. She loves it. It’s also quite stylish and sturdy as well. Sturdy enough for me, a 200+ lb man, to ride without trouble.

This thing is AWESOME. my 6 year old daughter loves it!

I understand that there’s an inherent risk involved in operating a hoverboard, and this one is no exception. It’s at a point where my experience with this particular model is less than enjoyable. 3 minor safety incidents occurred in which I had to step off of the board to prevent being tipped off by the hoverboard—two of them were on very gentle inclines, and one almost turned into a MAJOR safety incident. (Thankfully, I was able to grab onto a wall to prevent that from happening.) This otherwise wouldn’t happen as I am a pro rider who’s been doing this for 5+ years. Additionally, none of the lights are as bright as some of the other reviews with media showed them to be. They are very dim in person. I thought the idea was to be visible at night on these (but not necessarily in pitch black). I suppose I could use a headlamp, and I thought having the lights on the hoverboard to aid in visibility would be a great thing, but that’s simply not accomplishable here. Another thing that kills it is the fact that even the system indicator lights on top are very dim. This won’t cut it for me at all. Plus, the battery life leaves a lot to be desired. I got maybe about 4 miles before the battery indicator started flashing instead of the advertised 8. That’s HALF the advertised distance. (At this point, I’m being generous with the rating.) There was also some white stuff on one of the wheels that permanently stained it. I suspect that it may have been there all along, because the hoverboard didn’t sit around outside anywhere near long enough for any birds to get to it. Mind you, this was in DAY ONE of ownership of this hoverboard. Overall, I really thought this would be a suitable replacement for my old Hoverzon S, but the Hover1 Ultra, which is actually very similar in aesthetic design, missed the mark in so many ways. I guess as the old saying goes: they don’t make them like they used to anymore. Some of the best ones were made just after they required more strict quality control and certification by Underwriter Laboratories. I do not resent having to return this board because it tried to throw me off for hitting slight bumps on the sidewalk on night two. Another poorly engineered hoverboard that can’t even handle a dumbed down version of my riding style because of the flaws I ended up finding it to have. Truly disappointed. I’ve been burned by Hover1 brand hoverboards twice now. First, the H1; then this Ultra. Sorry, Hover1. You will no longer be earning my business with your hoverboards.

I bought two, one for each of my kids, for Christmas. They absolutely loved them, but one stopped working within a week. It wouldn’t calibrate anymore. The other hoverboard never had a problem.I looked up the problem online and couldn’t fix it, so I contacted the company and gave them the details. They wrote back right away telling me that it didn’t sound like it could be repaired, so I could return it and Amazon would send me a new one. I set up the return, shipped out the broken one, and got the replacement a few days later.I hate dealing with returns and contacting customer support, but they were great. I could tell that the hoverboard I received as the replacement was a slightly updated version (still the same model). I’m not worried about any more problems, and the other one we had is still going strong. They are lots of fun, and my daughter rides hers everywhere!

Bought this as a Christmas present and it came broken. The charging port was practically falling out of it. Amazon quickly provided a replacement and the new machine works great. Runs smoothly, has good battery life so far, and good speed. It fits with the Hover-1 concert attachment and my 8 year old loves riding it around the house.

Have two of these for nearly two years now, both still running strong.

The media could not be loaded. Cute color!!. My daughter is 9 year old and she said it is easy to control and smooth, speed isn't too fast at all and you can control your own speed.First I bought a smaller one from Target (red color) which is also pretty good and cheaper, just to see if she's really likes it, so yes both are good. It will beep and stop when battery emptied , so that's the time we have to leave it charging until full ( about 5 hours or until the light turned green). For safety reason I do not recommend to leave it charging overnight.
