We got this for our daughter for her 2nd birthday. She loves it so far. She can reach the pedals but she still hasn’t figured out exactly to to work them. This tricycle seems very sturdy (it’s pretty heavy) and it seems like it will last for several years.
I bought this for my 2.5 year old nephew. Easy enough to put together and great instructions. Great quality and looks exactly like the picture.
We bought these bikes for our 2 y/o son and 3 y/o daughter for Christmas. While they look great and are very sturdy, they are just too darned big for a little toddler. Even now 9 months later they still cannot sit on the seat and reach the pedals. By the time they will be able to reach teh pedals they will be ready for a two wheeler. My kids are not tiny either, my daughter is 50 percentile and my son is 90 percentile. Get a smaller tricycle so your kids can ride it. We have a Planet Kiddo hand me down (made in Germany) that is much small and my daughter rides that around.
Like others, we have a sqeaky front wheel, though not so loud that really bothers you — especially if you are outside. also, the lose handlebars — the deal there is that when you put the thing together, you’ve got to tighten them BEYOND what seems necessary. Get someone stronger than you to help with this if necessary.
Beyond that, I’m lovin’ this bike. Solid construction with real METAL parts means no cracking. Real rubber wheels means the bike gets good traction. The back step serves as a mount and as a means to give other small kids a piggy-back ride.
Yes, the center of gravity is higher than with modern styles of trikes. But if your kid is going to learn to ride a bike in a few years, she needs to understand the concept of balance beforehand. Riding a trike that requires a tiny sense of balance helps you toward that goal. It’s not like the thing tips over every time she gets up to 4 mph. Take advantage of the opportunity to teach her how to take turns at the proper speed and angle and she’ll be fine. Remeber, although a large or very athletic 2-year-old could use this bike, it’s really made for age 3 and 4, as far as I can tell.
My 2-year is a tricycle riding maniac. He LOVES riding and can peddle so well. I bought this tricycle because he can comfortably reach the peddles. The problem is that it tips over VERY easily. I am searching for another trike that is more stable so I don’t have to stay within a foot of him to try and catch him when he’s about to have a bad fall. I recommend you find a tricycle with a lower center of gravity and a wider wheel base in back. However, my son enjoys it and it is durable.
