Our Take

The Sterling Sapphire 2 from Sunrise Medical is a comfortable, good-looking pavement scooter. Comfort and style are its focus. It has a captain-style seat, a sleek profile and a tight turning circle that helps in shops and tight spaces. At 4 mph, it covers up to 30 miles on a charge — strong range for a pavement scooter. It carries riders up to 150 kg. Simple controls and a handy basket cover the everyday basics. If you want a relaxed, stylish ride for shopping and getting around locally, the Sapphire 2 is a pleasant choice.

The Sapphire 2 is a stay-at-home scooter. It weighs 79 kg and does not fold or come apart. So it is not a car-boot scooter — it needs storage at home and stays where it lives. It suits smooth, flat surfaces best and is less happy on steep slopes or rough ground. It is Class 2 and pavement-only, so it stays off the road. So it is the wrong choice if you need to transport it by car or tackle rough terrain. But if you have somewhere to keep it and want a comfortable, stylish scooter with genuine range, the Sapphire 2 delivers.

For pavement-friendly, around-town use like the Sunrise Medical/Sterling Sapphire 2 offers, these comparable scooters are worth a look. The Drive Medical Envoy 4 is a more substantial 94kg and the Roma Medical/Shoprider Grande covers a shorter 25 miles, while the Roma Medical/Shoprider Sovereign 888 sits in much the same bracket. Each is worth weighing up against the Sunrise Medical/Sterling Sapphire 2 before you commit.
