Ecomobl their boards are tanks, have a ton of torque, get up to top speed fast and mine lasted 3000 miles of hard riding.
I had an ET and beat the hell out of it and only did the full maintenance once at 550 miles then just added grease every 500 miles and had ZERO problems with it (not recommended).
It finally died with balled tires and a tired battery that still got me 12-15 miles (originally was 20). It was really hot (110 degrees in fresno CA) and I made a lunch run and blew the esc climbing a big overpass going home. Not even mad. It was hot, board was still performing fine, just my bad move.
Anyway, 99% of the hate comes from people who have never owned an Ecomobl board. They changed a lot recently and are running new motors and other stuff. They are making an effort to be better with customer service too.
I just picked up the new ET2 pro 4wd electric skateboard and holy crap- this thing is torquey! I have never gotten on a board that was too much when in the highest speed mode. The 4wd ET was so punchy I had knock it down for a little bit to get used to the pull from the front motors (and I have 2 4wd diys already).
So if you want a monster truck (m24/ Telum) or Ferrari (ET models) that are decently fast (35mph) then get one. I still say the ET for under 1k is the most underrated board out there.
Good luck
