Need help with hoverboard/swegway for 10-year-old

[RatInADollhouse]

Hello, just looking for some advice on buying a hoverboard for my 10-year-old. We’d really like to keep it to as low a price point as possible but of course we want it to be fun, safe, and age-appropriate, with a reasonable battery life. Is it possible to find this for under £150? Are there any specific features to look for or avoid? I’d like to buy from a respectable manafacturer as I’ve had bad experiences in the past with random Amazon sellers that seem to have no presence anywhere else on the internet.

(I know some people have safety concerns with these. My son will be properly supervised and wear a helmet and skateboarding pads and I’m comfortable with that.)

Thanks very much for any info!

We got this one and it works really well

We got one from currys 2 years ago for dd, its quite heavy and bulky and she struggles to carry it up and down the steps to the road.
She rarely uses it now, but she really enjoys it when she does. They are great fun.

Thanks very much! @AudacityOfHope that one isn’t available anymore but I will take a look at the specs.

We bought 8” Drifter hoverboard from Bluefin two years ago for DCs 10th birthday. It was £249 and we got a code for £20 off so paid £229. It’s been faultless. Well used and robust. A year later (next birthday) we got the go-cart attachment which has been equally loved by DC and friends. Not cheap initially but still having lots of use even two years on.
