The controls were not similar to other scooters I've used. Being one handed and that is the left hand, going forward was difficult while steering.
The cane holder did not work for me. The opening was not round and I couldn't get my cane in there! And when my companion did get it in, it drooped and kept keeping the elevator door from closing. And one time the liner got stuck on the cane tip and I couldn't get the cane out.
The battery life was great.
