There are big quality differences between folders, as there are with any bikes. Mine is an inexpensive seven speed folder, but it seems well made and it is lightweight aluminum. Some of the cheaper folders weigh too much.

I don't like it for anything but short distances. Probably it is because of the upright riding position. At first, it felt twitchy but I got over that with familiarity. But it is convenient to toss in the car and pull out to ride. This particular folding bike really folds easily and even can be wheeled when folded.
