I chose an adult trike, as I have a balance problem, and can no longer ride a bike. Assembly took some time, but it arrived more assembled than most. It feels sturdy and comfortable when I ride. The hand brake and coaster brake are easy to use. It is hilly, where I live and I have no trouble slowing down or stopping, on downward slopes. (If you do live in a hilly place, having 3 speeds is a very good idea.)
I find it is easy on my back and knees and feels stable, when I ride. However, if you are used to riding a 2-wheeler, you should be aware that a trike feels surprisingly different. You may need some practice before it feels natural to ride it. (On good advice, I found an open area and rode figure-8's until I got the knack of steering it.)
It has given me back the pleasure of pedaling, which I missed very much.

Missing parts, damaged threads, mismatched parts. If you like a challenge and a chance to be creative this is for you. The bike came 70% unassembled in a box, the box was trashed, there was no protective packing inside, luckily not too much damage to the bike. I had to use my own screws and bailing wire to assemble, took about 6 hours. The bike itself is OK, I don't think 2nd gear is working, just goes straight from 1st to 3rd. I guess I will find out how it holds up. Amazon should be ashamed sending me a bike that was obviously returned before.
Honest reviews on Worksman Port-o-Trike Three Speed Adult Tricycle Blue
First let me tell you Amazon was fabulous to work with during this nightmare. We bought US made product to support our country and had hoped for a better situation. Our first trike order arrived damaged, according the the manufacture Workmans! However, the product showed no sign of damage but the foldable pins didn't line up. UPS picked the product up and we received the second trike in less then 5 days. The process went very smoothly. Although, the previous follable pin issue was now not a problem this time; there were 3 other major problems. First, the intertube had 2 punctures requiring a new inter tube, secondly, you could peddle but the bike didn't move and it required a trip to the bike store for diagnosis. The factory didn't tighten a screw, thirdly a problem with the wheel feeling like it had a flat spot requiring another trip to the bike store and it had something to do with the tire rim which they fixed. Finally, after a few trips and other adjustments the bike was finally ready to ride. Obviously, this is a quality control issue! Amazon gave us a nice credit for the hassle and the purchase of the intertube but had one more thing happened we would have shipped it back for good! I am sad to say we were not happy with Workman's product and hope that they will do a better job with their quality control!

We looked at many Adult Tricycles. Most where big and not easy to store. They were heavy and took up alot of garage room. We also wanted something that we could take with us when we travel. We decided on the Worksman Port-O-Trike 3spd. Upon arrival the Trike was simple to put together. Everything needed was in the box. The parts lined up for securing. The instructions are easy to follow and there is always the youtube video that helps those that need it.
Remember to check wheel tightness before riding. It will take a little ride time to get used to the balance of a tricycle over a standard bike. The 3 speeds make it easy to pedal. The seat and handlebars will set up for just about anyone to ride. The rear basket is set a little close and your feet will hit on it when you pedal. I reset the basket farther back, (had to drill two new holes), to fix this problem. We have been asked by several people where we got the trike. The size is what draws people to it. No more fighting the big 26 inch heavy weights. The bike is great if you need to store it. It is also great if you are older and would have a problem dealing with a larger trike. It is very easy to get on and off. it is a big plus being lower to the ground than a full size bike. If you are looking for a trike to ride around the neighborhood or take to the local market this is it. If I still had my boat
this would be my equipment transport. Worksman Port-o-Trike Three Speed Adult Tricycle
