The Mini is the quality scooter for young children. Its unique 'lean-and-steer' design allows children to use their body weight to control the steering, giving kids the feeling of 'surfing' the sidewalk, as they curve from right to left, almost like a skateboard, adding an element of fun and control that young children love.
The Mini scooter is designed with 3 wheels for greater stability and control. The polyurethane wheels create a wonderfully smooth glide -- and a quiet ride (a joy for parents and children alike!).
The kickboard is low-to-the-ground and large enough for two feet, making it easy for young children to hop on and off and to switch from pushing -- to just enjoying the ride.
The 'spoon' brake at the back adds additional control, and kids like it because its just like the 'big kid' scooters.
For parents, the Mini scooter is light weight (only 3.3lbs), so it's easy to pick up and carry when need be.
The Mini scooter makes scooting fun for young children at the same time as helping to develop their balance, co-ordination and motor skills.
The Mini scooter is designed with a weight recommendation of 60lbs. Please note that the scooter displays a weight limit of 20kg (44 lbs). The reason for the discrepancy is that European standards dictate that weights are approved and displayed only in increments of 10 kg (22lbs), so the next available weight category of 30 kg, or 66 lbs, would have put the displayed recommended weight limit OVER its actual recommendation of 60 lbs.
And, the best just got even better - the original Mini scooter has been improved! The design team at Micro-Mobility in Switzerland, are always working to achieve ever-higher standards of excellence. They have recently added a reinforced brake, stronger U-bar, and a new locking pin for easy handlebar removal.

#1 scooter you can buy! I bought my son 12 yrs ago (he's now 13) the identical scooter from Huffy(same dimensions, screw placement etc.). He rode it until he just was too heavy for it. That one is still with us and now my daughter has been riding it for 2 years. We decided that since she can't even go to the bathroom without the scooter it was time for a new one, the plastic base was gone and only the metal narrow part was left. I refused to get a regular scooter and glad I didn't.
This style of scooter is the safest scooter for any child to ride. No worries about the front wheel turning unexpected and you child flying thru the air or falling as easily. I can actually exhale when she's riding. No more holding my breath or being afraid. Balance is definately enhanced here too. All turning is done with body/weight placement. It's super stable. Absolutely great. Both my kids started on this scooter before 2 yrs old and at 5 yrs old, my daughter goes everywhere with it & yes she rides it all thru the house too. My only worry is that I hope the plastic base can be replaced if needed as this one is sure to be around for a long, long time. Worth every penny!!

We've had this scooter for a few years now. I bought it because I wanted a three wheeled scooter that taught my son to balance but yet was more stable than a two-wheeled scooter.
Most three-wheeled scooters have the third wheel on the back. That always looked a bit awkward to me. Like when they go to kick, the back leg must avoid that wheel. I guess it's not really that bad as I watch other kids, but I wanted my kids to kick like they would on a two-wheeler.
This scooter has the third wheel on the front and it steers like a skateboard. That's a terrific way to teach balance. My son (4 years old at the time) was a little tentative at first, but he was able to use this scooter with a little effort and concentration. It helped him a great deal with his confidence and he was eventually able to transfer to a two-wheeler.
My daughter was 2 years old when she started riding this scooter. She picked it up quickly after watching her older brother. By the time she was 3 years old, she could zip around on it quickly.
There is a brake on the rear wheel, just like the two-wheelers. Other three-wheeled scooters don't have that feature. It allowed my kids to practice using the brake for when they transferred to the two-wheeled scooters.
The Mini Micro is solidly built. We've had ours for about 3 years and it's still going strong. There are no loose parts, nothing falling off or bent. The brakes haven't worn down yet. It still looks just like the day we got it.
The only downsides to this scooter is that it doesn't fold up and the handlebars don't adjust. It's geared to a very small age group (3 to 5) and doesn't hold a lot of weight.
However, the Mini Micro is a terrific beginner scooter, far superior to other three wheeled scooters. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat. It's well worth the extra cost.

This scooter is fantastic. My four year old loves it and flies around the park and neighborhood on it. It is stable, intuitive and smooth. I like the fact that you don't have to lean it against anything when you aren't using it. This is by far her favorite outdoor toy and now she doesn't have much interest in her bike (unfortunately).

We bought this for our daughter on her 3rd birthday and she's loved it for the past year. She has learned to balance well, and from humble beginnings coordinating her pushing foot she now zips around faster than we can follow. The front axle flexibility for tilt steering works really well, and I believe it's easier and more intuitive than than having to coordinate the hand, body and foot motion for kids. The product is well made and can be easily dismantled for portability. It has a higher weight limit than some other products, the two front wheels provide great stability, and the brake works well. Last year she was the only one in the playground with one of these, this year there are so many we've had to decorate hers (even with some of the included stickers) to be able to keep the kids from grabbing the wrong one. Overall, a solid choice. Of course, make sure your kids wear a helmet!

Do not buy this scooter! I bought this scooter for my three year old and we have had to put it away. The weight is in the front and the wheels stick out and are easily caught. When the wheel hits anything (lawn, rock, etc) it stops and the child flies right over the top as the handle bars do not turn like regular scooters. The scooter tips right forward sending your child face down on the ground. One time my daughter's wheel hit the lawn so she fortunately faceplanted on the grass, the second time it was on cement when her wheel hit a rock. She fortunately had her helmet on and only received a dent in her forehead from her helmet, that shows how quickly it pitched her over onto the ground. We had to take the scooter away after that and went and bought her a barbie razor type scooter that is able to turn and adjust. This is a very dangerous design. The handlebars don't even adjust anyway so you would be wasting your money even if it wasn't so dangerous. I have contacted the company but have not received any reply.
