Packaging and contents

Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The e-scooter lock from FIRSTSAFE presents itself as a carefully packaged product from the very first impression. The sturdy cardboard box ensures that the lock is adequately protected during transportation. In terms of the sustainability of the packaging, we found that although some unnecessary packaging waste was avoided, plastic and bubble wrap are provided to secure the product components. The comprehensive set of the e-scooter lock is impressive, as it not only includes the lock itself, but also a practical bag that offers additional storage space for small items. The German-language and clearly written instructions for use are a particularly positive feature. The clear instructions allow the lock to be used easily and smoothly. End users can therefore attach the lock to their e-scooter easily and securely and benefit from the numerous advantages of this product. The Prüfengel Institute rates the packaging and contents as successful overall, but a more consistent sustainability strategy would be desirable in order to be even more environmentally friendly. Nevertheless, the e-scooter lock impresses with its well thought-out features and the bag supplied, which makes it a recommended companion for every e-scooter rider.
