How to Tell if You Have a High-Quality Hoverboard: A Comprehensive Guide

With the influx of hoverboards in the market, sometimes it gets tough to distinguish between good quality hoverboards and subpar options. In this article, we’ll delve into the key indicators of a high-quality hoverboard. Everything is based on our experience at SmartBalanceShops.com and we promise that if you understand these factors, you’ll be empowered to make an informed purchase decision and find a high-quality hoverboard.

       1. Safety features

Look for hoverboards equipped with essential safety features that enhance your riding experience while minimizing potential risks:

       -         Led lights for visibility

       -         Non-slip food pads for a secure grip, ensuring stability and control while riding

       -         Weight limit specs

At SmartBalanceShops.com safety is a paramount, so every hoverboard we sell is designed with these crucial safety features in mind.

       2. Premium materials

Look for hoverboards that are built to last. Inferior hoverboards often cut corners by using low-quality parts, compromising performance and durability. Our advice is to opt for models crafted with durable materials such as reinforced aluminum alloy chassis / frame and wheels. This construction not only enhances strength, but also maintains a lightweight design for effortless maneuvering. Hoverboards with metal frames are good. Hoverboards with reinforced Aluminum Frames are best. Lightweight and durable. Invest in a hoverboard made with top-of-the-line components to enjoy a smooth and reliable riding experience. Make sure the hoverboard you want to buy actually has a motherboard (most don't, they just have internal circuits), and make sure the motherboard is independently connected both with the motors/wheels, and the gyro sensors. This way you make sure of the best stability technology, and this is actually how we design our electric circuit elements on all our Smart Balance Hoverboards.  

3. Cerfified batteries

As you might expect, cheaper hoverboards often utilize low-quality batteries, leading to issues like overheating, fire hazards or diminished performance. We advise you to choose hoverboards with certified batteries and look for certifications like UL2272, which ensure that the batteries have undergone rigorous testing before being sold to the public. At SmartBalanceShops.com, our hoverboards are equipped with UL-certified batteries and you can find this info on the product page.

       4. Advanced technology

       -         Self-balancing enhances stability and minimizes the risk of falls or accidents.

       -          Bluetooth speakers provide an immersive experience, allowing you to enjoy your favorite music on the go, without using headphones while riding your hoverboard, which is a totally NO NO. Make sure you DO NOT wear headphones while riding. This might make you to lose focus on your surroundings, which in turn might lead to serious injuries and/or damage.

        -     All these advanced technologies and features elevate the overall riding experience. At SmartBalanceShops.com you’ll only find hoverboards with cutting-edge features, ensuring that your experience is convenient, entertaining and tailored to your needs and preferences.

       5. Customer reviews
