My installation process did not resemble the quick and easy installation depicted in the video on installation. The whole thing took several days and multiple contacts with customer support. The problem is the step-through frame and the fact that the place on the frame where the pedal sensor must go is angled away from the magnet wheel, and thus it is very difficult to achieve the correct distance between the sensor and the magnet wheel. I finally figured out a way to do this and I'm hopeful it does not come loose. The first pedal sensor I was sent was defective. Customer service immediately sent me a replacement, which works just fine. Overall, customer service was very helpful in trying to assist me. With regard to performance, it seems to work pretty well and I have gotten much longer distances than what I'm reading from other reviews. With the setting at the least amount of power (setting 1) for the entire ride, on a ride mixed with hills and flat sections, I managed to get 49 km out of the max battery before it quit. The distance is accurate as I used my Garmin watch and phone app to measure rather than just relying on the Swytch OLED display. I did not shut off the power at any point during this ride. I'm not sure if this will turn out to be typical. I guess we will see.
