GBI wish I could rate zero stars I wish I could rate zero stars. I purchased an Eagle one scooter. They advertised that 2 chargers were included. When the scooter arrived there was only 1 charger. When I emailed Varla they said they would send a second charger. It took over a month to receive. I enjoyed the scooter for just over 100 miles. Then one of the controllers went out. I purchased a new controller and now the scooter won't power on. Varla will not warranty the $1800 scooter.

GBBrand new and can’t ride till they fix problems . When I received my new Varla eagle one there were parts in the bottom of the box that should have been installed. The steering clamp only had one of the arms installed and 2nd arm was a bottom of box but no nut to be able to tighten the steering shaft properly. After 5 texts they finally said they would send another whole clamp device. I told them I only need the nut, just send me the nut. Biggest problem is the steering binds when you turn it. It binds at straight and about 10 degrees off center L or R. They told me to loosen the notched adjuster just below the steering support. I tried even with 14” channel locks and will not budge. The showed me a video of a guy with a tool turning it snd he put his foot up against the scooter to apply leverage. Number 3 is the seat I ordered. I’m 70+ and need to lower my center of gravity for safety reasons. I’ve told Varla customer service all these problems and not getting any help from them. I said I will take to a scooter repair facility and bill them. I’ve had scooter 3 weeks now and have not ridden it yet. HELP! ! !

DKDon’t buy their scooters ! Don’t buy their scooters. They do NOT deliver what they promise. They are difficult to stear and they only go 1/3 of the distance of what they write. They sent me the wrong model and it took over 2 months to get the right one. But now already after 2 full trips of fully charged scooter I only could drive 35 km. I contacted them and they only give you poor excuses. DONT buy their scooters !

GBWHAT A JOKE! RIPOFF I found them on a Facebook advertisement and I thought this would be a great starter scooter. The front motor lasted a week before it just died. I tried to contact their US phone number and all it does is ring. Even their local address they have in California is a generic location. It's not a real location or storefront. This got me VERY worried. After a long wait I finally got a response from their Ai based email system. I'm not getting any help other than how to trouble shoot via videos they put on YouTube. Im stuck with a dud and now I am going to file a claim with my credit card. I bet I start hearing from them once that process starts. I DO NOT recommend them. After reading reviews here on trust pilot, Im skeptical of the positive reviews. I wouldn't be surprised if they are company generated because after all the negative reviews, SUDDENLY there are positive reviews from people with just ONE review and consecutively day after day, vs the staggered negative comments. I WOULD AVOID VARLA at ALL COST!
