This black plastic oval front basket is designed to mount on the front tiller of Go-Go travel scooters. It measures 8-1/2” x 8-1/2” x 9-1/2” and comes with mounting hardware. It’s perfect for carrying small items like a purse, wallet, keys, and water bottles.
Another option is a front security basket. This basket has a secure zipper that lets you lock it shut, so your belongings are safe and sound when you’re out and about on your scooter. This basket is also made of a durable, moisture-resistant material on the outside and has strap handles inside for easy transport.
Adding a front basket to your scooter can make it easier to reach your belongings and provide increased stability for your mobility scooter when driving over rough or uneven terrain. However, always use the basket securely and never overfill it. Doing so could cause the basket to fall off the front of your scooter, becoming a tripping hazard for you. Also, avoid reaching into the basket while your scooter is in motion, as this can cause you to lose control of it.
Rear Basket
A rear scooter basket is great for carrying items you don’t want to keep on your hands or in your lap. You can also use it to carry shopping or luggage for longer journeys, as it keeps your belongings secure and close at hand. Buy quality baskets for mobility scooters here now.

You’ll also find replacement and spare baskets that you can mount on your existing hardware and a wide selection of accessory trays.
The most important consideration when choosing a scooter is whether it will be comfortable to sit on for long periods. Most mobility scooter seats are basic, but some have padded upholstery and swivel seats to help you find the most suitable position. You might want to consider a pressure relief cushion if you need seating support for long journeys or if you have a health condition that causes pressure on the skin.
Another factor to consider is the size of the wheels on your scooter. Larger wheels will give a smoother ride over rough terrain and allow you to climb kerbs more easily. You can choose between pneumatic tyres (which need to be inflated regularly) and solid tyres that won’t puncture but aren’t as good at absorbing bumps.
Most scooters can climb small steps without difficulty but need momentum to go up or down slopes. They can also tip over if they try to turn while on a hill, so it’s best to approach them straight on. Check the instructions with your scooter for details of its maximum gradient – this is the steepest angle at which it can be safely used.
If you’re not confident using your scooter on hills, try taking it to a specialist retailer and ask for some practice. They may be able to provide some flat ground or even let you use a dropped kerb so you can practice climbing.
Oxygen Tank Holder
A portable oxygen tank holder lets mobility scooter users keep their oxygen on the go. This accessory mounts behind the seat of a scooter to provide easy access without impeding movement or restricting the view. These holders can accommodate various tank sizes and feature strong fastener straps with quick-release buckles. Some also include small, zippered compartments for storing extra tubing or other essentials.
Some models are designed specifically for a specific scooter brand, while others have a more universal design. They bolt to the frame beneath a mobility scooter user’s seat and act like a bicycle holster. They’re made of sturdy metal and have a protective frame-like structure that ensures the cylinder is safe from damage. They’re available for most brands of scooters and power chairs, giving users renewed freedom to get out and about. Buy quality baskets for mobility scooters here now.
