Is china electric scooter a budget friendly option?

Yesterday I visited a scooter shop to find a China electric scooter for my nephew’s school commute. I wanted something small and reliable. But when I checked the scooters I felt disappointed. Some looked fragile and some batteries seemed weak. I could not decide which one to pick.

I visited another store. Some scooters were strong but expensive. Some looked simple but were fragile. Some seemed perfect but had small wheels. I remembered buying a scooter last month that stopped working after few days. That made me hesitate even more.

To check more variety and options while scrolling many online marketplaces including alibaba I found many China electric scooters. Some had strong motors and big batteries. Some were simple and cheap. Some had new colors and styles. Seeing all these options made me excited but also confused.

Now I am thinking should I buy this China electric scooter online for variety or check a store to feel the quality first? What would you do if you were in my place?
