Here at iSwegway we are constantly bombarded with a variety of questions on the subject of Swegways. Of course, before purchasing it is common to ask questions that you would like clarity on. It is always good to ensure you have all the information you need to make the right purchase no matter what the product.

To help we have put together the our top 8 Swegway questions!

1. Are Swegways dangerous?

When Swegways first hit the market there were various media reports regarding some boards catching fire. This was down to cheaply manufactured boards flooding the market. Steps were taken at this time and these boards have now been removed from the market.

Our boards are and have always been built to the highest quality and with quality components. Each board is also tested before it is shipped to you.

Like any motorised device, care has to be taken when using the Swegway but in terms of the board itself, they are not dangerous when used correctly.

2. What size Swegway should I buy?

There are three size options you need to consider when it comes to a Swegway. They are available in a 6”, 10” and 8” and each board has differences that are worth looking at.

For a detailed comparison on board sizes do have a read of this blog we wrote a few months ago.

3. Do I need to buy safety equipment?

The most important thing is your safety and here at iSwegway that is always our priority. As we have mentioned each of our boards are tested before dispatch and each board is made from the highest quality components.
