I purchased this item for my 10 month old son and he absolutely loves it! This toy allows him to practice walking as well as sitting next to it, trying to take it a part! I love that this item was not pricey since he is so young. One thing I will say is that you should monitor your child while they are walking with it just in case they fall, because it is not super sturdy! But it is great for the price!

My eleven-month old doesn't really care for it. There is nothing really to hold her attention and she is already too tall to sit on it as a ride-on.

This is a great ride-on toy for my 6mth old grandson. He enjoys sitting on it and spinning the little windmill. He's too young for using it as a walker or riding it but he likes to sit on it. Just wish it had more sounds to get his attention. But overall its a nice little toy that he will enjoy for awhile.

I live in NJ and wanted something for my nephew's 1st birthday who lives in Austin, TX. I decided that this would be the perfect bday present for him. I ordered it from the website and had it shipped to a Walmart in Austin. My sister had no problems picking it up. It is really cute and colorful and perfect for the little ones who are learning to walk. My nephew uses this as a ride on rather than a walker and loves it!

Our Toddler Baby Loves It & Her Brother Too!

We had one of these previously for my oldest 2 grandkids when they were little. It was a big hit and aided with their learning to walk. So, it was a no-brainer when my granddaughter's 1st birthday rolled around and I saw this being offered through Walmart. She loves it and so does her preschool brother.
The toy has enough bells and whistles to make it fun even when they are not walking or riding on it. It has minimal sounds, things to pull, push, turn and roll, enough variety to interest the kids but not too much to annoy the adults. It is quality made and looks like it will last a long time.
In the sitting position the ride is sturdy and fun. We have had no problems. The standing position is a little awkward. Although it is meant for a child to walk behind it while pushing, they are prohibited from getting close enough in an upright position by the width of the back tires. It needs to be wider. Since the kids have to stand back further than they need to, the balance is unstable for new walking babies. It tends to fall to the side too often and this frustrates the baby.

Great gift for early toddlers

I bought two for my twin godchildren's 1st birthday. The fact that they can use this toy to stand behind and practice their walking, and ride around on makes it the perfect toy to age with them. My boys had cars similar to this when they were small, they spent hours zooming around the playroom and walking behind it. They played with their push cars until they were too big to ride them. Now my godchildren are zooming around their playroom - their mother says that the girl likes to walk around behind it, and the boy loves to ride it- the twins love their cars!

This item is difficult to switch from one position to the other, I've pinched my fingers multiple times. My daughter also has a hard time making it move forward, the wheels dont rotate very well.
Very cheap, not what I was expecting.

I bought this product for my great-grandson's first birthday. Since I live a good ways from him,
I did not actually see the product and had it sent to my daughter's home as she was giving a
first year party for her grandson. I can only say that my daughter tells me that my great-grandson
really like to play on it. I picked this product for his gift because it was made by Playschool
and this company has been making toys for a long time and has a good reputation. The price
was very reasonable as the different ways to use it will grow with him.

This toy gives the child many other gadgets to play with besides using it as a riding toy. Good idea!

This product is great. We bought this for our nephew who is 5 months old and he stands and leans his chests over the yellow bar to play with the fabric on the front he loves this. My niece also had one of these and she learned to walk using this. She then had an issue with her heart and after her heart transplant had to learn to walk all over again. Guess what she used to learn the 2nd time.. Yup. I would say this is best used on a rug to give the kid some resistance. Enjoy

I bought this for my 9 month old granddaughter. She isn't walking yet, and thought she could use it to push and walk with, and when she got older, sit on it for a riding toy. She is very petite, and I thought this ride on toy would be perfect for her, as other ones I had seen, were much bigger. She loves it! Paw paw put it together in minutes.

Got this for my one year old for Christmas, it was a big hit! Literally was running around the house with it. I love that it is multicolored, very gender neutral. My little one loves to just lay with all of the attachments too. What is way nice is that it turns into a seat and he can ride on it, which he finds hilarious. It was a great price and will totally last.

This product is a great deal for the price. It was pretty easy to assemble (required screw driver). I originally purchased it to encourage my one year old son to walk on his own; I believe it did help him do this. I would probably have bought something else if I was looking exclusively for a ride-on toy, but for a combination"walker" and ride-on it is great.
