Golden BuzzAround XL+
Four wheels for stability, and it still comes apart in four pieces with no tools. The heaviest piece is 42.5 lb.
What you actually lift
The front half is 42.5 lb, and that is the worst of it.
It separates into four pieces and none of them needs a tool. You never carry the assembled 97 lb.
- ✓Front half 42.5 lbThe heavy one. It carries the tiller, the front wheels and the motor.
- ✓Rear half 28 lbOut second, in second. A two hand carry rather than a heave.
- ✓Seat with arms 16 lbComes off first, one hand.
- ✓Battery 7 lbSlides out on its own. Take it out before you lift anything else.
iThe order that works is seat, battery, rear half, front half. On its wheels it stands 42 in long and 22 in wide, so loading it is four trips rather than one.
