Recommend me a scooter

Not sure where to put this so Lounge it is.
Need to upgrade CFKJnr’s (non-electric) scooter and the market is absolutely awash with billet aluminium carbon fibre things costing more than my car through to cheap tat with customers reviews that mostly say “Fell apart on Day 1”
Doesn’t need to be anything too trick, nor massively costly or cool for the sake of it, just enough for her to get to school* and back on.
She’s around 115cm tall now.
Over to you.....
Thanks.

Got our 7 year old one of these at Christmas, he's used it everyday to get to school (and I rode it home) and it still seems to work as well as when he first used it.

Bumping this as i'm sure we don't need another kids scooter thread.
In the same situation as the OP.
Looking at the JD BG as it seems to get good reviews.
Of course kiddo wants a Micro Sprite with flashing wheels.
But they're £120 as opposed to £50 for the JDBUG... sans flashing wheels.
Why don't JDBUG do one with flashing wheels!?
Any other suggestions or do I really have to fork out for a Micro?!
Oh... he'll be 5 and about 115cm like the OP's kiddo.

You'll be able to buy LED wheels for a JD Bug, but check depending on the model if you need 120mm or 100mm.In the same situation as the OP.

The Vikingettes used to have these. Slightly bigger wheels, front & rear brakes and best of all front suspension that cuts out most of that annoying scooter rattle.
