6 reasons not to buy

Puckipuppy claims a safe top speed of 15mph, but testers reach 20mph using the throttle.
A 300lb reviewer gets just 8.5 miles of range over mixed terrain using mostly the throttle.
Folding this large and heavy e-trike is impractical.
Both owners and experts find assembly time-consuming, taking up to five hours.
Reviewers complain that the rearview mirrors loosen easily and bounce while riding.
The below-average 2A charger means a lengthy seven-hour charge time.

Bottom line

On paper, the Puckipuppy Alaskan appears to be a good value. The powerful motor, instant throttle response, high payload capacity, and ride comfort impress reviewers. However, battery range is poor, and the top speed is too high and exceeds the claimed speed limit. The challenging assembly also frustrates buyers. Experts deem the Alaskan a decent offering in the budget e-trike segment, but similarly priced alternatives, such as Lectric's XP Trike and Meet One's Breeze, are also worth considering.

Level 1 expert

… my final thoughts on the Puckipuppy Alaskan… overall, [it’s] still going to get a passing grade. The cadence sensor right now is going to get a C, and the battery is going to get a D because I only got like eight miles.
