   Great scooter! Second Glion and this one has great power, very long battery, fantastic commute scooter! I love, love, love my “Aluminum Falcon.” It is incredibly well lighted compared to other scooters, so it’s highly visable. And as far as speed, I’ve only encountered one scooter that can outpace it on my daily commutes in SF. So it’s top of the line in getting you there quickly AND safely.

   Some key notes tho. It is VERY heavy compared to the Dolly. You can still carry it, but you can not sling it around like the original Dolly. It can be very tippy when you pull it with the carrying handle, so you have to be mindful. And there are some really sharp edges in the underside of the handlebars, so when you are expanding or collapsing it, you need to avoid putting your hand anywhere near there or you WILL end up cutting yourself.

   A few quirks, but overall I’m INCREDIBLY happy with my SECOND Glion purchase.

   This is my first experience with this brand. This was promoted as a commute scooter, but I use it for everyday pleasure. I can’t comment on the long commute to or from work. I can only share my opinion with my local use at parks.

   For starters, this scooter is amazing, and it has many features. A powerful 400-watt rear hub motor that can propel you up to 18 miles per hour. The motor is quiet and reliable and can handle hills and rough terrain with ease.

   A long-lasting 36V 12.8 ah lithium-ion battery that can provide up to 25 miles of range on a single charge. The battery is removable and can be charged in 3.5 hours using the included charger. You can also monitor the battery level and speed on the LCD display on the handlebar.

   A durable and lightweight aluminum frame that can support up to 300 lbs of weight.

   A dual headlamp system that can illuminate your way in the dark. The scooter has two bright LED lights on the front and a red brake light on the back, making you visible and alerting others of your presence. The scooter also has a horn button that can produce a loud sound to warn pedestrians and vehicles.

   A front and rear mechanical brake system that can stop the scooter quickly and smoothly. The scooter has a hand brake lever on the right and a foot brake pedal on the left, giving you more control and options to brake.

   Although, I loved everything about the scooter for my basic needs. The scooter is so heavy that rolling it around would be impossible if I had to use this for my commute to work and back. I tried to roll it up and down the block, and it almost always tips over with every roll and bump. It’s so heavy that I can’t control where it rolls next.

   I do appreciate how compact it is and can be easily stored in the closet or corner and takes up less space because of the folding features.

   There’s pros and cons to everything, and so far, the pros are winning.

   Great scooter and fun to drive. I like the hill climbing ability. I live two miles from the grocery store and do 90% of my grocery shopping on a Glion. I can even roll it inside the library when I study. I use this for longer trips (4 miles out and back) and my Glion 225 for shorter trips.

   I have logged thousands of miles on Glion Dolly scooters since their original Kickstarter in 2014 and the Dolly XL is their best yet! It is more of everything in comfort, stability, and safety. I love the wider deck, bigger pneumatic tires, double headlights, hand brakes, and taillight. But it still is just as easy to fold for storage during the workday, not to mention that it’s a blast to ride!

   The Gilon DollyXL is amazing. I have other electric scooters and this one is superior in every way. Let’s talk about its most important feature “DOLLY” meaning it can be easily lugged around because when you stand it upright it has wheels on the side to easily pull around like a travel suitcase, it also has a handle that retracts to make lugging easy. If you’ve ever had a scooter, it’s HEAVY, this is a revolutionary feature if you are a true e-scooter commuter. The wheel is larger so it has PSI in it (some people don’t like that because of occasionally having to handle deflated tires down the road). But the bigger wheel is just fundamentally a better ride. It goes over cracks better and uneven platforms better and handles wet surfaces well. The motor makes a slight noise to make sure people around you can hear you are coming. But not too loud where it’s obnoxious. It has three modes, eco mode is below 5 miles which is great in areas where there are a lot of pedestrians, medium picks up really fast, and the fastest speed is up to 18 mph. It has a range of 28 miles. It’s well-built and strong. The kickstand is quality, and the LCD monitor is gorgeous. There are two brakes (left for the back wheel, and right for the front). There’s cruise control (convenient). The horn is a real horn, people will move out of the way because it’s loud! lol but I appreciate this. There are two-night lights for further and closer visibility. Overall, I’m in love with it so much I will buy from them in the future.

    I’ve been a long time customer and they have great customer support with repair parts in stock if needed. Sent my scooter in for repair and received it back within a week. The Dolly XL is a great scooter with a wide standing board and dual lights so people can see you.

    I’m a tall, bigger guy and this moves me with zero issue. Really gets moving, and the battery lasts a good long time too. Easy to collapse. Brake is solid, no complaints.

    This scooter is quite impressive. There is immediate power and speed that can be felt on the high setting and surprisingly runs a long time! The dolly system is a little gimmicky. If the ground is not completely flat, it can feel as if you were taking a wobbly trashcan out to the road. Personally, I prefer walking it in an open state and folding it when I need to store it. We initially bought it to take our dogs out for a quick walk, but found immediate enjoyment that could only be described as feeling like a kid again. As of right now (~2 months), we have had nothing but good experiences with the Glion DollyXL. I will update if anything changes.

    We love your scooters! We bought 2 original Dolly scooters 3 years ago and have rode them almost daily. We have put a lot of miles on these with no problems of any kind. These are very durable and well made. In addition to being really practical they are super fun. We use the Dollys so much that we wanted a spare in case we wrecked one. When we saw there’s a new XL version we had to get some. After a couple rides we are very impressed. This is a whole new machine. The original Dolly is like a sporty compact and the Dolly XL is the luxury model. We love the cushy ride and added electronic functions, especially the cruise control. The bicycle like brakes are also a big plus if you cycle and switch machines a lot.
    Both the original and the XL share excellent handling and controllability especially at very slow speeds. This makes them great for exploring and sightseeing. These scooters easily fold into a very compact package that rolls like a carry on bag. They also take almost no space when standing up. No other scooters we looked at did this.
    The service/support staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and quick to help with any questions or issues. The fact that this company is located in our state (Nebraska) also factored in to make all this a great deal. We highly recommend these scooters!

    I got my XL on Christmas Eve Day and today 12/27/2022 was the first time I took it on what will be its normal commute. This is first impressions. I’ve worn out two standard dolly’s in the past 6 yrs. My normal commute on the scooter is 8 miles total consisting of 1 way between my home and an LA metro station (3miles) and a 1 mile commute to lunch and back. I have a second charger at work, so I would charge the standard dolly’s at work. The two standard dolly’s I considered worn out when they would no longer do the 3 miles on a full charge. Good things about the XL, the high speed was 17.5mph (Im 215lbs). The hand brakes are so much better than the electric brakes on the standard dolly. Cruise control is wonderful. The pneumatic tires make for a much much smoother ride and eliminate the standard dolly rattle. Contrary to the manual you can change from mid to high speed without stopping, I did it with no issues while coasting (ie no cruise and thumb off the accelerator). The only negative I noticed was there are a lot more external wires on the XL, I’m concerned about snagging while dragging it on and off buses. It is 15lb heavier than the dolly so if lugging the standard dolly is an issue for you, the XL will be harder. It is a different charger than the standard dolly, not sure if I will charge at work or not, need more data. Most of the 3 miles this morning was at High Speed, the battery shows 39.6V, the battery gauge shows 100% full. Ill see where I am at the end of the day when the full 8 daily commute miles are on it.
