I am super impressed by the service as well as the great product. My 7 year old son saved up his money to buy a new gold R1 after having a go on his friends hoverboard. I can't believe how well he has taken to it, zooming around the house and garden, beats booming from my ipod.
It is a great size and a bit more robust looking than other models, my 4 year old has also had a go on his knees and has managed well with a bit of help.
Would definitely recommend as a first hoverboard.
