Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2 Pavement Mobility Scooter

Our Take

The Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2 is a compact, refined 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, easy ride.

The scooter carries users up to 136 kg. Meanwhile, a full charge covers around 15 miles. That’s plenty for shopping and local outings.

The total weight is 45 kg. However, it doesn’t fold or come apart. Because it stays in one piece, you’ll need a ramp to load it rather than a car boot. It also needs some storage space at home.

The Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2 suits someone who wants a neat, 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 Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2 for the shops and short local journeys, and there are close alternatives worth knowing. The Abilize Aethos SLE trims the weight to 34.9kg and the Abilize Stride Comforter is very similar on paper, while the Iliving USA i3 comes in lighter at 34kg. All are close enough to shortlist alongside the Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2.

The Sunrise Medical/Sterling Little Gem 2 is an easygoing choice for pavements and everyday outings. There’s really no substitute for seeing one in person and taking it for a spin.
