Adult Electric Cozy Trike review: Defective trike 16

Lord I pray I don’t receive a defected trike. I just purchased a Cozytrike from Walmart.com and it is being shipped and now I can’t cancel. I don’t find these reviews until afterwards. It’s a shame that Walmart would allow these merchants to sell faulty products on their site. It says I can’t return to store and will have to contact merchant. I also so brought the Walmart Allstate protection plan that says it will cover defects for 3 years so we will see how that goes. I hope and pray that it’s not defected. I’m very sorry for the people that received a bad trike from them and thank you for the heads up because now I won’t procrastinate if it is defected. You’ll should contact an attorney and see if you can get a class action suit all it takes is for one to initiate and then they give the attorney referrals of the others who had similar issues. Good luck.

BUYER BEWARE!

Don't buy one! they are total crap and the company is a rip off. I bought one for my mom and when I received it I was not only disappointed in the low quality (and I mean low), It was bent and impossible to ride and very unsafe. I had received an e-mail from the company before I got it stating that if I got a damaged product, do not refuse the shipment and that they would make good on anything that was wrong. What a fool I was.

I finally was able to get them to take it back. I shipped it clear across the country and they refused the shipment for being damaged and blamed it on my packaging. I found this out after calling UPS to find out where the package was and was informed that they had destroyed it. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY THEM THAT THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAD HAPPEND AND IT WAS A COMMON BUSINESS PRACTICE BY THIS COMPANY!

I have had all the same issues as other complaintants. I have been throughly ignored by the company, so this is what I have done so far; I have contacted and lodged a complaint with:

My state Senator, my state's Attorney General, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Better Business Bureau, and the Federal Trade Commission. If I cannot get satisfaction from Mobility4Less after the complaints, I will consider lodging a class action suit. This should not be allowed to happen!

Our CozyTrike has been a disaster. I advise to spend a little more and purchase something locally, receiving support and hopefully a quality product. We had many of the same issues as earlier posters. Had to find a post that set the seat backwards, otherwise it was incredibly difficult to pedal. The whole thing is poorly constructed and my child could do a better paint job. Worst for us, the "drive shaft" connecting the front and rear chains is dependent on bearings that totally disintegrated within months making it unusable. The CozyTrike "service team" is laughable and would not support repair. NEVER BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!

I had many of the same assembly problems as have been described here. My main regret for buying something on line for over $2000.00, is I didn't actually drive one first. The unit is dangerously unstable at cruising speed. It is too frightening to remove just one hand from the handlebars unless going slow. Also, don't try to make a 90 degree turn at much faster than walking speed or you will flop over sideways and get hurt.

[protected] small claims court Springfield, MA number. This is where they are headquarter. Sue them!

Let us all do a class action lawsuit or each of us a small claims one. I purchased this for my disabled wife who has progressive Multiple Sclerosis. I intended to purchase a trike with a pedal assisted electric motor to aid her in pedaling when her strength failed her episodically. Epizontech.com advertised a pedal assisted trike that was grossly misrepresented on their website and since has been changed after I submitted my complaint which is required for a defective product return. I paid $30 to our local bike shop to have it test rode and assessed for safety and controllability. The master bike mechanic urged us to return the trike on the grounds that the components are grossly inadequate to control and stop this over powered, large, and heavy trike. He deemed it unsafe and dangerous in its entirety. Seeking full product refund, court fee, travel cost.

I bought a Cozy Tricycle in Oct. 2017. The information on the internet said that you could remove the battery for charging, that you could use it in rainy weather, and even the snow. Well the manual that came with it suggested that you not use it at night, not use it in the rain, and not use it in the snow. The battery was fixed in there so you could not take it out. When we first started riding it the bike was so unstable that it would actually fall over, which caused some injuries. After 9 months, the chain began to rust, the paint was coming off, and the welding joint between the bike front and the bike rear came undone. I called the company where my "Warrenty" was located, but they never called me back to arrange for repairs. It was very disappointing to spend all of that money. The kicker was that the company advertised that the shipping was "Free", but I got charged $125.00 for a "gating fee", which I have never heard of before. I'll never buy another one nor deal with that company again!

Ordered two cozy trikes for us. My question is about the chargers. I also ordered two power boost-are these supposed to be charged separately? Do you charge the trike with the silver charger only? Do you plug the power boost to the trike and then to the silver charger plugged into the wall outlet? ANYBODY purchase the power boost and can help me get our trikes charged? Trikes have not yet been charged at all because I don't want to make a costly mistake!
Thank you for any help you can give me.

I bought this in june '16 and I have had nothing but a bad experience with this company and the trike. what was put together was done incorrectly, and three times they sent the wrong parts. By this time, it's winter and I can't ride it in snow. I also have been in and out of the hospital with a terminal illness. A neighbor finally got it together and we tried it out. It doesn't work...the battery goes dead after 1 1/2 min. I, ve called several times and emailed them. They don't answer the phone, and after several attempts to contact them, they sent an email saying the warrantee was for 30 days and it's now over a year. I said, well, that, s your fault. By the time you sent the right parts, we find out it won't work. They won't budge and they are nasty. I'm thinking if taking legal action.

I purchased the Cozy Trike from Epizontech. Big disappointment. The bike itself is a great idea but the quality of workmanship is awful. The bike arrived with the tire not even in the frame, but the worst thing is the paint job. Every part of the trike has defective painting on it. The paint will chip off and then rust immediately. The customer service would not back up the paint defects. They only give you 7 days to return the bike. I am handicapped and had to wait for someone to come over and put the bike together so 7 days was not an option. They would not budge on this. Its too bad because the bike is a great idea and powerful, . I upgraded to the ion battery with a boost $1800.00. A large investment for something that will look terrible in less than one year .It would have been good customer service if they would have offered to pay for a bike shop to repaint the bike. I would not recommend this trike from this manufacturer.

I am a professional bike mechanic and manager of a bike shop. I had the displeasure of working on one of these today and I have not been this appalled by a product in a long time. Very very poorly designed and put together and extremely expensive for the quality of the product (assembly challenges aside). Do yourself a favor (for your wallet and your safety) and get a "Torker Tristar Hybrid" (electric) or a regular "Torker Tristar" and get a "Clean Republic" electric motor kit installed on it. Both options are going to run you about the same amount of money and be exponentially higher quality with an actual warranty and service from a bike shop.

Hi;
I purchased the same trike. YOU HAVE TO TURN THE HANDLEBAR 180 after you receive it!
Adunni, you are an ldiot or using too much drugs.
