I’ve been interested in this every time it’s been up for sale, but horrible reviews about defective batteries specifically mentioning woot! and the mothership make me hesitant to pull the trigger. It seems like I’d just be renting it for 90 days, with no help from the manufacturer or insurance after the fact, can anybody speak to having a different experience?
Below is my post from the last time I saw these for sale:
“ Looks like a huge percentage of the recent reviews are 1-star, and many of those specifically mention woot and DOA batteries. Is there any expectation that if I buy one of these it will actually work?
To put it another way, since Segway is blaming how these things were stored for the high percentage of dead units, does woot have any insight to whether the ones being sold here were subject to the same improper storage? “
