Eschew Obfuscation: Grocery Shopping on the Zapino

Grocery Shopping on the Zapino

Today, I went grocery shopping on our electric Zapino. I was a little worried that I wouldn’t be able to fit all the groceries in the basket and under the seat, so I took a Trader Joe’s bag too and planned to hold it between my feet. However, it turned out that I didn’t have any problems. Here is what I bought:

Large powdered Gatorade
2 – Boxes of cereal
Half gallon milk
Quart of goat’s milk
Jar of mayonnaise
2 – Tamales
Frozen fish
Asparagus
French rolls

As you can see from the pictures, they all fit in nicely! I definitely could have squeezed a few more things in, and then could have filled up the shopping bag and put it between my feet.

My friend and I bought ours about a month ago, and we both have about 400 miles on them. So far so good! We get up to 30 miles on a charge if we drive conservatively, about 24 otherwise. My friends Zap had an issue where the handlebars wouldn’t lock and my seat is hard to close. Other than that, we haven’t had any problems.

Hi, I see that Zap is selling 2 used Zapinos. How long have you had yours and what do you think of it? Does it seem reliable? Have you needed to deal with Zap at all? I am curious.
