Review summary

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently highlight the excellent service and responsive support, noting quick replacements for faulty parts and efficient repairs. Many people also praise the staff for their helpfulness and positive attitude, making interactions pleasant and productive. The build quality of the scooters is often described as extraordinary, with consumers appreciating the sturdy and reliable design.

The E-scooter is good for its purpose but the battery doesn’t serve as needed. Please work on the batteries it will help. Thanks

Not for cobblestones and bumpy roads

I do think the scooter is far more lightweight than others but this means it has barely any absorption when it comes to bumps and holes on the road. I live in Rome, covered largely in cobblestones and uneven cemented roads. After nearly 5 months I have developed significant back pain and I'm not sure I'll be able to continue using it if I want the ache to go away. I have also noticed that the cumulative cost is much (much) higher than many other scooters on the market that would probably deal better with the roads here given bigger wheels and overall more solid structure. All in all I deeply regret signing the subscription and committing to 24 months. I am sure my back regrets it also. The support team also takes long to respond and isn't very thorough but it might be a national thing since everything seems to be less efficient here in Italy.

Dangerous product bad service

It was the most unprofessional experience with a badly designed product which is a big risk to customers to get hurt or in accidents. Read my email correspondence with Matteo for the details.

E-scooter ES210 - Horrible purchase

After one year of use I am NOT satisfied with the E-scooter ES210.
I wasn't satisfied from day one!
-The battery does not last long, drains after a few short rides.
-Riding it feels rough despite the one air inflated tire, you feel every small bump on the road, this drains your feet!
-It drives slow, when going down hill you can feel that it even holds back and forces not going over the speed limit.
-Braking is not consistent, one time it brakes too hard and the next not at all.
-The app is annoying, after a few times of turning the scooter on and off it automatically locks itself. This can only be unlocked by the app with location/blue-tooth/mobile data turned on. If your phone is drained or have no mobile data you can walk home.
- At the bottom of the steering wheel where you can fold the scooter there are a couple of screws that continuously get loose. This even happens after a 15 min drive. Resulting in you steering wheel rocking back and forth. EVERY TIME you take the scooter out.
I have had scooters for half the price with batteries lasting longer, driving faster, driving smoother (even with two airless tires).
This was the worst purchase in recent years!

Augment the 🐐🐐

I had a e scooter before getting an augment that I got from mediamarkt it was the worst thing I ever had to get to work google maps used to say it was 27 mins but w the e scooter from media it took me over 40 minutes and after it broke down in a week I decided to get an augment the shipping was amazing fast and professional and I didn't have a single problem except the charger blowing up in my hands but that was quickly replaced all in all I really reccomend and it brought my work distance shorter I get to work in about 19mins from my house it's 7.8km away

It was fast and reliable scooter.

It was fast and reliable scooter.. I used it for work and home service or roam around the town with ease. Climbing up a hill has no problem with this scoot. The only downside is you can't use it on rainy days. I suggest that augment should make a scoot that can be use on rainy and snowy days, like waterproof and wheels have spikes like the electric bikes. I think this would give the scooter more versatility when it comes in usability.

Overpriced HX X8 Scooter

Never trust them. Bunch of unprofessional freelancers that does not know definition of customer service. Deliveries are always next week. Fix your scooter by yourself (like tyres, stuff, etc). No response in 30 minutes (as said on website) minimum waiting time is 12-24 hours + 6-7 working days for delivery. Scooter is very easy to be stolen, no battery protection so people just can take battery away. Real cost of scooter (HX X8 Model) on aliexpress is around 300 USD and they selling it for 800 EUR without proper customer service and this explains everything

We are sorry to hear that you experienced slow customer service and that you are not satisfied with the features and price of our electric scooter. We would like to clarify a few points:

Customer Service:

Response time: We apologize if you did not receive a response within 30 minutes. Our Italian customer service is available Monday to Friday from 11 AM to 5 PM, as stated on our customer service page https://augment.eco/it-it/contattaci/. We do our best to answer all messages received outside of opening hours on the next business day.

Using freelancers in the customer service: All our customer and technical service agents are on our own payrol. We don't have freelancers working in our customer service.

Repairs and spare parts:

Free replacement scooter: We offer a free replacement scooter for use while your scooter is being repaired.

Free spare parts: If you own an Augment scooter and need spare parts, we will send you the necessary parts for free, including the battery. Please note that some parts can be expensive to buy separately, such as batteries, which typically cost €200-300.

Delivery time:

Next business day: We ship replacement scooters the next business day after the service request is made. Over 90% of deliveries arrive the next business day. Only in very rare cases is the delivery time more than 2-3 business days. If you have experienced a longer delay, please contact Panu at panu@augment.eco.

Scooter price and features:

Collaboration with HX: It is true that we have collaborated with HX on the development of our ES One 10 and ES 210 scooters. However, the only common part between the X8 and ES 210 models is the deck. Even the top tube is modified in our ES 210 models. In total, we have made over 200 improvements.

Price difference: The $300 price you mentioned is for the 36V HX X8 model sold in China with a small battery. The price does not include shipping, VAT, or customs duties. Unlike the 36V 350W HX X8 scooter, our ES 210 model has a 48V electrical system, a 400/450W motor and a larger battery capacity.

Removable battery:

All of our scooters have a removable battery that you can easily take with you and charge, for example, at your office.

We hope this response clarifies things. We are constantly striving to improve the quality of our customer service and provide the best possible e-scooter experience.

Good company with a good product

Good company with a good product. I've had my scooter for two years and only needed assistance once, and it was really good! They changed my scooter, and it is working like new. The response time is very short, and you can easily reach them by email. Strongly recommend!

I am very satisfied with this product.

I have been using my Augment electric scooter to go to work for more than a year, during all this time I have not had any problems, I have had to contact the support service to ask some questions, such as the power of the motor, and I have received satisfactory response at all times, they responded very quickly. So yes, I am very satisfied with this product.

Dear Niklas,

Our contracts are 2 year minimum term contracts to keep the monhtly fees as low as possible. Opposite to normal leasing or part payment contract, you have option to terminate the contract after 11 months with paying the termination fee as defined on our contract. Have you checked it?
