Nice Cruiser!
I loved riding this bike, it's sturdy and easy to pedal. I've never ridden a bike without hand breaks but I had no problem with the coaster breaks on this cruiser

Handle bars came loose and doesn't steer front whe
Looking into the tube where the handle bars insert into, there is nothing for the handle bars to tighten into. The whole assembly just came out and can not re-attach to anything to tighten it. So strange.

    Great for e-bike conversion
    Really good bike for the price and good quality too, I'd say it's better production quality than huffy because everything fell into place perfectly and nothing was damaged or scratched and made a perfect bike for my e-bike conversion

    Missing critical seat adjustment piece
    First off, the box had a huge whole right in the middle of it. I'm also missing a critical piece of the bike where it allows me to adjust the seat. Unfortunately I'm unable to do so without that critical piece. How do I return without having to return this WHOLE bike?!

    Amazing bike, the only thing I didn't like was the photo displayed tires being all black. My tires have a white outline on them?

    Mine came with wrong tires. Caused too many issues
    I have plenty of experience building bikes and making bikes. Ordered from walmart.com. Install wasn't too bad. Front wheel definitely not balanced which causes each wobble to have to hit the fender, but, here is the thing..... The bike I received had totally different tires on it! They are black, wider then the fenders, and both have white walls on the sides which clashes hard with the look of the bike color wise. I was pretty disappointed. The fenders take a little too long to make them not rub. But... remember, I have these 2.1" wide tires that are not what I saw at the store. I'd like to say that while I saw this bike at the store and lots of them outside, I did take notice that the tread pattern was different on the same model bike . There were at least 15 of the bike and I'll say every 5 had totally different styles. This impacts the ride and handling. The tread on the tires I received is more of a mountain bike. It takes away from the look of a cruiser. It's a tad heavy for being a simple bike which is what I was looking for. Single speed and coaster brake for easy rides. Drivetrain seemed fine, and coaster brake was fine. If the front wheel was balanced, and the tires were correct, I would keep the bike. Maybe just take the fenders off entirely. Handlebar style creates a fun chill ride with a broader view, and the seat was good. On sale for 98$ which is great, but I got one with clearly the wrong tires and a bunk front wheel. I would recommend purchasing pedals with more grip to them. I took the bike for a short ride and I think it's essential with coaster brakes to have your feet stay on those pedals...which are the only way to stop other than jumping off the bike. You've been warned, but, you might not run into the tire / wheel issue that completely makes this bike less desirable. Kind of shocked that the bike, which is in a factory box from Kent, had wrong tires with too close for comfort clearance. ¯⁠⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

    Good for the money QC could be better.
    Over all it is a decent bike for the money. You'll definitely want to take everything apart and grease the bearings in the hubs, neck, crank. The wheels are not true. However, once you fix those things it's a fun bike to ride and quite comfortable. If you have no mechanical knowledge you might want to pass. It's a fun inexpensive bike with no frills.

    good klunker base
    great for klunker frame, added a 3 speed hub and 3pc 30t crank, tires, seat, and bars. if you just ride it you will need to grease your bottom bracket bearings and headset bearings mine had almost no grease.

    Disappointed
    I ordered the bike on August 31st and it arrived on September 15th. (Tracking showed 9 states) The box arrived badly damaged. (See attached picture) While assembling the bike I noticed the front fender was dented and the paint on the frame was scraped, This may be an inexpensive bike but it should have arrived undamaged. I've owned numerous Kent bikes in my life and quality control on this one could have been better...

    Very good and easy to ride bike. Wonderful.
    I like the bike, it was very easy to assemble and every part was in great shape. It took me one hour to assemble it and I am enjoying my rides every day.

    You get what you pay for
    It had some slight damage from shipping that required some repair (too cheap packaging). Wheels seem to have some resistance, don't freely roll. Haven't solved this issue yet. You get what you pay for.

    It's a bike
    Bought this bike on special $98 because I just had knee surgery and needed something quick and cheap. Poor quality pretty much what others mentioned. Slightly wobbly wheel from and rear. Rear one wobbles just enough to rub on the rear fender. Seat and ride is ok I have ridden smoother cruisers. Careful with the braking, I have ridden crappier bikes that stop on a dime this one make sure you plan ur stopping distance accordingly. I will say given our current economy $98 may be fair but anything above that is a big no no for this bike. You can for sure find a way better quality of bike on offer up or the swap meet if you go above $98. Anyways keeping the bike for what I need it for not planning to ride hard or abuse the bike….oh a big pro it looks nice! Nice paint job too that's about it.

    Good bike for the price.
    Great price on sale for early Black Friday. Good bike for the price. Had it shipped to the house, it arrived on time. Pretty easy to assemble. The front tire wobbles slightly, not enough to make me want to return it. Probably due to shipping damage.

    Nice but too big for me
    Nice bicycle for the money but a little too tall for me. I am 5' 9' tall but found it difficult to get on and off this bicycle. Returned it to local Walmart today for a refund = no problem.

    Just throw your money down the toilet
    Do NOT waste your money! Even though I paid for "expert" assembly through Handy, the bike needed repairs immediately (front spokes were damaged, front wheel wobbled, back wheel continually stuck against the back fender). Even after repairs, the bike is still defective. Every single time I get off the bike, the back wheel jams against the back fender and refuses to turn. It is so difficult to un-jam that I almost left the bike on the side of the road. I ended up dragging the bike (with the back wheel not moving at all) three miles to get it home. I have asked for a refund but two months after getting the bike, I've already spent $150 on installation and repair that I can't get back, and I've only been able to ride the bike twice - both times, to the bike repair shop. If you're thinking of getting this bike, just throw your money down the toilet instead. It'll be less hassle.

    The spokes were broke in the back wheel, there were scratches all over it like someone tried to put a Motor on it and the back where you put the wheel on is bent
