Our Take
The Solax / Monarch Genie is a compact, easy-to-use four-wheel scooter. It’s a Class 2 model. So it runs on pavements at up to 4 mph. However, it isn’t made for the road. Four wheels give it a steady, planted ride.
The scooter carries users up to 136 kg. Meanwhile, a full charge covers around 9 miles. That’s plenty for shopping and local outings.
Solax publish 25 kg and Monarch publish 19 kg. Two different machines are sold under the Genie name, so confirm which one you are buying and get its weight in writing. It folds for transport, but does not come apart into sections. Because it stays in one piece, you’ll need a ramp and hoist rather than a car boot. It also needs proper storage space at home.
The Solax / Monarch Genie suits someone who wants a simple, comfy scooter for local trips. So if you stick to smooth pavements and have room to store it, it fits well. Buyers who need a scooter that dismantles for the car should look elsewhere instead.
Most people choose the Solax / Monarch Genie for the shops and short local journeys, and there are close alternatives worth knowing. The Freerider Mayfair 4 is heavier at 89kg and the Invacare Leo is closely comparable, while the Alulite comes in lighter at 54kg. All are close enough to shortlist alongside the Solax / Monarch Genie.
The Solax / Monarch Genie is well suited to pottering about locally and running errands. There’s really no substitute for seeing one in person and taking it for a spin. The Find this Product Near Me search finds dealers in your area to compare on price, and Buyer’s Guide runs through what matters.
