The unit can even stand/balance by itself. * My 2 year old (almost 3) can ride this fairly well, even using the brake a bit. I think this scooter is great for the younger ages of the rated 3-8 age group.
Cons: * With the plastic wheels, brake, and platform, I question the durability. Some of the plastic is already starting to get scratched up after a day or two. Because of this, I'm knocking off a star.
Other: * My unit looks a little different than the unit in the photos, but it only appears to be some color differences (like some of the black parts are red). * Overall I really like this scooter, with the main question being its long-term durability.』
(Double Sturdy) 『We purchased two of these scooters for our twin boys' 7th birthday. They have autism and needed a scooter that was wider since their coordination is not the best. As well it needed to withstand their weight and roughness. It has passed all our requirements with flying colors. In addition it also folds for easier storage. This has made learning to ride a scooter really easy for them. It has a rear brake on the back wheel instead of handle brakes which was a little challenge for children with motor skill coordination deficits.』
(Our 3 yr old son love this scooter) 『My husband chose this one after our son kept begging him for a scooter. He loves this scooter. The wider wheels make it easy for him to use. We often walk the dog and he'll use his scooter on the sidewalk. Love the red color too. I would recommend this to anyone with a preschooler. Plus it goes up to age 8 and 80 lbs, I think. The next one down only went to 50 lbs and our son is already 40 lbs., so we wanted something that would last a few years. I only gave it 3 stars for educational value because I didn't buy it for that. 5 Stars for fun! Buy it, you won't regret it.』 『The new Radio Flyer EZ-Rider is the first and only scooter made specifically for intermediate level riders. This patent pending scooter helps younger children master balance while allowing them to keep pace with older siblings or more accomplished riders. Innovations such as extra wide wheels, ultra low deck, rear foot brake and limited steering ensure maximum safety and offer parents peace of mind without sacrificing style. Parents will appreciate that it comes fully assembled with minimal packaging and easily folds for convenient storage and travel. The EZ-Rider has two inch, extra wide wheels which allows the scooter to stay in an upright position and promotes balance. The deck of the scooter is positioned lower to the ground for stability.』

It goes fast enough for him to enjoy it and slow enough for me to still think he's safe. My only complaint is that the battery isn't readily changeable so you can throw a fully charged one in while the other charges. Our Power Wheels was good for that.』
(Big Hit) 『Wanted a "big" gift for 8 yr old sons bday. Go cart came assembled, battery partly charged. Goes great on driveway, slows down a little on grass, but fast enough to entertain, slow enough that mom doesn't get nervous. 13 yr old brother, enjoyed as well. For battery powered cart and the money, recommend this Razor product.』
(my kid loves it) 『Great item and price.The first one arrived D.O.A. so I called Razor to resolve problem what a nightmare so I called Amazon they are amazing they sent the shipping carrier to pick up the item the next day and I had the replacement unit the following day. Two weeks later the parts from Razor arrived. Amazon customer service is the best I have ever dealt with.』
(Sweet ride!) 『My 8 year old loves, it. She basically giggled while driving it around the yard for hours. It has good battery life and we have yet to completely drain it. It rides well in the grass and dosen't tear it up, has decent power. Overall a very good purchase, she loves it!』
(We love this Razor Dune Buggy!) 『I think this Razor Dune Buggy is a must have for any little boy or girl. We have an 8&3 year old and they absolutely love it! My 8 year old received this for Christmas and it has been in constant use ever since. It has amazing power and seems to go quite a while on a single charge. It is the envy of the neighborhood.』 『The Razor Dune Buggy provides the ultimate in electric powered off-road capabilities. Powerful speeds up to 9mph and can carry up to 120lbs ! The Dune Buggy's specially designed reduction drive is perfect for lower torque climbing and off-roading. 8" knobby tires and big bucket seat allow for a smooth comfortable ride. Ages 8+』 『Want to give your child a little off-road entertainment? Turn to the Razor dune buggy, the ultimate in electric-powered backcountry cruising. Outfitted with a powerful 350-watt motor designed to reach speeds of up to 10 miles per hour, the buggy is fast enough for serious fun, but slow enough that it won't compromise your child's safety. Parents will also appreciate the side roll cage, which creates a barrier between the rider and the outside, and the padded bucket seat, which includes a seatbelt for added security. And thanks to the buggy's specially designed reduction drive, the vehicle is capable of both lower torque climbing and high torque gearing. Perhaps the coolest feature, however, is the fully electric design, which is not only easy to charge, but requires no fuel at all, runs quietly, and produces no emissions.
Other details include eight-inch knobby pneumatic tires, an active rear suspension, a durable tubular steel frame with diamond-plate floorboards, hand throttle and brake controls, a rear disc brake, and a safety flag. Ideal for difficult tracks and terrain, the buggy supports up to 120 pounds of weight and is suitable for ages 8 and older.

Its low center of gravity and short handlebar shaft make it stable. I bought a similar trike for my daughter many years ago and it was higher with a longer shaft and kept throwing her on the floor. The first trike sent by Amazon had a crack and Amazon sent a new one immediately after being contacted about the problem. Great service!』

The 3 1/2 year old is probably a little too big for it, but he still has a ball riding this around the house. The steering feature is his favorite. My 1 year old loves the bell. Highly recommend.』
(Very happy with this trike) 『I bought this for my one year old nephew. He's a little small but the trike helps support him as he stands up. He's trying to walk so the trike helps him along. I know it will be good for his leg muscle development too. He loved the bell.』
(great for tiny toddlers) 『We received this as a gift for my 12 mo. old over two years ago. Before he could even walk he could crawl over, climb on and take off. It has always been in our house and he could zoom laps and laps through the downstairs rooms, navigating over rugs and hard floors. I noticed that he had a concept of "steering" much younger than his other friends and it is all because of this bike. It has given him endless hours of entertainment.

(Fantastic!) 『What a great buy this was! My son loves it! High quality and very hardy. Not flimsy at all. It folds easily and can unfold just as well without adult assistance. I bought 2 of these (the other one as a gift) as they were on sale at a great price from amazon. Everyone ended up thrilled and it's been a year and we are still seeing the fun the kids have with this.』
(Great for my 4 year old) 『Love this scooter. My 7 year old has one and we just bought this one for our 4 year old's birthday. Although the age recommendation says 5+, my 4 year old daughter has no problem riding this scooter.』
(Great Friend Maker) 『This is one of the greatest inventions ever. It is no longer the play toy or the "ride" of your neighborhood. I'm currently a college student, but my age does not stop me from having my share of fun. Razor scooter allows you to travel faster than mere pedestrians and yet portable enough to carry with you onto a bus. After you get off your bus, you can once again conquer the sidewalks with your agility and speed. Plus, if you ride it with your friends, you just formed a very conspicuous scooter gang. It can also be a hook for a nice conversation with a girl who you always wanted to talk to but never had the courage to do so. To make it short, this scooter, without a doubt, is badass.』

Patented rear fender brake and folding mechanism. Easy to fold and carry as well as convenient to store.』 『The original kick scooter just got a whole lot better, making it even more fun for kids and teens alike. Though it'll never replace the internal combustion engine, the Razor A2 will get your child from point A to point B much quicker than on foot alone, and requires just a few scoots of one's shoes in the process. Plus, it's a blast to use, as your progeny will likely attest.
The Razor A2 is built of aircraft-grade aluminum, a sturdy material that holds up to use and abuse through the years. Razor combined the traditional aluminum construction, however, with a number of recent innovations, including a springless shock system that makes bumpy pavement feel smoother than ever and an all-new wheelie bar that guarantees an extra dollop of fun. Add in the foldable T-tube and deck, which tuck together to create a compact footprint (ideal for carrying when riding isn't appropriate), and you have a great kick scooter for virtually any situation. Other details include an enhanced finger guard, 98 mm inline-style wheels, and a patented rear fender brake for quick stops.
This version of the Razor A2, which weighs around 6 pounds and supports up to 143 pounds, sports black handlebars, a black deck logo, and clear wheels and is recommended for ages 5 and older. It's also backed by a six-month warranty. For the next step up, try the Razor A3 Scooter.

It looks like one for "big boys' (he's five). It is nice looking and seems like it will protect him very well.』
(Great for grandson) 『Thankfully so far, this helmet hasn't been put to the "crash test" yet, but it fits comfortably on his head and makes his mom and myself feel much more secure about his safety while he's on his skateboard.』
(Razor Child V-17 Helmet) 『Customer support at http://www.kentbicycles.com was very helpful in sorting through which model of V-17 helmet is for children 5+ (small shell) and which is for children 8+ (medium shell). The children 5+ small one is the one reviewed here and was only available online at the time of this purchase. The model number is 97780. If you want the small one be sure it has this model number as opposed to 97778 which is the bigger one for 8+ years old.
My son is almost 5 and still this helmet was pretty loose on him. It comes with two foam inserts, one is slightly thicker than the other. However, they are not meant to be used both at the same time. We have to use them both (safety pinned in) to make it snug. I wish this helmet came with inserts that were desinged to be added to the existing foam to make it tighter instead of designed to use one insert or the other. I later saw another 5+ helmet (may have been a Tony Hawk one) at Toys R Us that had much thicker foam padding and fit him tighter.
Still he loves the helmet and it looks sharp on him. It is of high quality in my opinion.』 『The Razor V-17 multi sport helmet unites superior quality with a cutting edge design ..

I can probably squeeze a phone in and some keys. There isn't much room left although and can unzip the mid zipper and get about an inch more. Construction is good and fit is a bit awkward as it doesn't fit the contour of the seat post and the seat bottom on my bike. I opted for the velcro model after all the bad reviews regarding the one with the "fixer". Overall I'm satisfied. I can't imagine buying the small model if you want to carry a tube and some wrenches.』
(I love it!) 『It is the perfect size for my mountain bike.... I would highly recommend this product!』
(Good connection...) 『I like the buckle connection better than the new design. I guess the new design is a bit less prone to theft but any criminal in a rush would just empty the contents. It is not to much effort to take the entire pack with you. I like this product so much that I bought a second one for my other bike. I keep a spare tube, tire levels, 3 CO2's, a mini bike tool, and a inflator. It also has a nice place for some id, first aid, and my insurance card. Just the essientials. The sewn on reflector is a nice detail.』
(Good Quality Pack) 『This is a great quality product. It was exactly as I expected. It fits: tire levers, CO2 cart, CO2 nozzle, multi-tool, my keys, and my cell phone perfectly.』
(Solid product) 『I bought this wedge pack as it had pretty good review. Now that I have the pack in hand I think I would have purchased the Large version. The size specified by Topeak is larger than what the pack really is. I imagine what Topeak gives for dimensions is the absolute maximum size the pack could be after you have stuffed it as full as is possible. I ended up with an extra inch of vertical space which would have been perfect for the Large pack.
Otherwise, this pack is very will designed. I had no problem mounting this to my bike and there is no problem with cinching up the straps to keep it secure. The expansion zipper is nice to have. The pack is rather small (when you think about wanting to put spare tires, extra water bottles, etc. inside), but it stores my mini toolkit and tire repair kit. It still has room for a few other small trinkets if I later decide to store them.』 『Topeak Aero Wedge Pack

I have a 10 year old, who had a pocket rocket (also by Razor) that after 3 years kind of lost it's coolness. Overall he really likes the go-kart, his hangups are the speed, more leg room, and turning control. He's around 5'1 and 76 pounds and is forced to sit butterfly style, which looks strange. I consider this a starter kart, since there isn't much to it. I really enjoy the red color and haven't noticed the battery life being a problem. I did read that in many reviews. I noticed in the instruction booklet it strongly advises to charge for 18 hours and the box says something like 12.. I went the full 18 and no complaints. I have the neighborhood children lined up at the door waiting for a turn.』
(Super fun, not the best turning capability) 『We bought this for our seven year old son, we also have a 12 year old and nine year old so we wanted something they could all ride without breaking it and this seemed perfect. It is super fun and fast but I wish it could turn a bit sharper. The kids are almost forced to go in the road to make a u-turn because they can't get all the way around in the driveway and going on the grass is not an option because it gets high centered. We have plenty of sidewalk and safe streets though so it hasn't been a huge issue and none of the kids can ride it enough and the battery life has been pretty impressive so far.』
(Awesome little GoKart!) 『This GoKart is great! Works well and very sturdy. My 10 year old loves it! It is a issue where to use it. Not a good idea in neighborhoods with cars because it is so low and hard to see. Basically have to load and take to a park. Use caution in users under 8. My 7 year old nephew crashed it into a fence going about 10mph. Could have been a bad crash if I hadn't enforced the helmet and seatbelt rule. The kart was fine after the crash. Super sturdy. Woulld make a fabulous Christmas gift.』
(Wonderful go-kart) 『My husband had no problem assembling. It was shipped very quickly. My boys, ages 8 and 11, love it. Wish I would have bought two at the lower price.』

We talked it over&decided to purchase this Go Kart anyway. We did the 2-day shipping method and it was right on time. The assembly was a piece of cake, because all that needed to be assembled was the seat&seatbelt, and the battery needed to be charged. We bought him his favorite helmet, some elbow pads&knee pads, then took him to the park to ride it, we were extremely pleased. It was a perfect fit for him, he's 5 years old&I was very, very happy that the speed of the Go Kart was fast, but not too fast for him. It definitely goes a little faster than what the item described, but not so fast that we had to be concerned about him losing control. WE LOVE THIS GO KART!!!!!

It'll just give you enough pressure to get home and no more. I like the feature with the two heads for both valve types. It stores securely on the seatpost waterbottle braze-on's on my bike. Never worried about it falling off my bike. My crane and foot misses it by a centimeter or so.』
(Works well for my comfort/hybrid bike) 『I needed a basic portable pump for my Giant Sedona hybrid and bought this pump based on its reviews and the attractive price. It works well - ie. frame mounts well and satisfies the pressure needs for my comfort/hybrid bike tires (they don't need more than 100psi max that this one provides).
』
(Cheap) 『Exhausting to use. Not enough leverage with the handle. The pump completely broke after only a few uses.』
(Great little pump) 『I've had this pump on my bike for a while but never needed to use it until this morning when I got a flat while out on a ride. The pump worked perfectly, with no problems at all. I was able to get good air pressure into the new tube and complete my ride as if nothing had gone wrong. A couple of the pump's features are particularly nice. First, I like how it not only snaps into the holder that attaches to the frame but also has a velcro strap to hold it securely in place. No worries about it ever falling off no matter how bumpy your ride, and I can leave it on while my bike is on my car rack. Second, while pumping there's a lever to hold the nozzle firmly over the tube stem so it doesn't leak or slip off. In short, this pump did exactly what it was supposed to do, and you certainly can't beat the price.
One note just in case it matters: I used it on a Schrader valve. I have no idea how well it works on a Presta valve because I simply haven't tried it.』
(Awful pump) 『I spent a lot of time futilely pumping tires and getting nowhere. I finally figured out the pump wasn't working (duh). I'm new to this, so possibly I'm doing something wrong (did read the sparse instructions), but I've used other pumps and they actually put air in the tire. This one did sometimes, but not others. It's been a frustrating experience and I'm going to quit being such a cheapskate.』 『Featuring the Schwinn brand Americans have trusted for over one hundred years this pump is small enough to go with you anywhere. Bicycle tires and tubes require a fixed pressure per square inch (PSI) to function safely and at best performance. Home bicycle pumps allow riders to maintain this conveniently without costly or lengthy trips to the nearest service station. When mounted on a bicycle or stored in a glove compartment fear of being stranded due to low pressure becomes a thing of the past.

Your credit card will not be charged until we ship the item. Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Age recommendation is off) 『I'm a sucker for anything that would get my kids moving outdoors. I thought for sure my 8 and 5 year olds would love something like this. They definitely wanted to try it out when they saw it arrive.
Putting it together was easy. It required sticking two poles together and adding a handlebar. Everything goes together with a hex screw -- hex screwdrivers included.
The poles are lightweight and designed to work exactly as illustrated on the web page.
My 5 year old daughter was first. I had the foot rests on the lowest setting and the handlebars on the highest setting. At 44 inches, she was far too short for the bend in the pole to go under her armpits as shown. I raised the footrests as high as they would go hoping that would make her tall enough to get them under her armpits. Still no go. It was not possible for her to use it as intended, so she gave up.
My 8 year old son, 55 inches, did fit on the stilts. I placed the footrests back on the lowest setting and his armpits barely made it over the bend. If I placed the footrest one notch up, he would fit, but he felt so insecure, he did not want to continue trying.
What a shame. Neither of my kids are using this now. I'm hopeful that if I bring this out with other kids around or when my daughter grows a bit, my son will try it and maybe the kids will all enjoy it.
This really looks like fun, so I can't lower the ratings too much except that the age recommendation was off. My daughter is not short for her age and 5+ is just too young. It should be 8+
I intend to come back to update this after I try it out on more children.』
(Walkaroo stilts) 『These stilts are well-made and easy for kids to learn to use. My almost 5 year old daughter was stepping around with little help in minutes. The only complaint I have is that they claim to be adjustable for kids as young as five. However on the lowest setting, there is no way that my daughter could reach her shoulders over the padded red parts that are supposed to go under the arms and behind the back.
The adjustment works by each stilt being made of two parts that slide one inside the other. When a setting point is reached, a little button pops out into a hole to hold the stilt at the set height. My husband happens to be handy, and he added an additional hole for a much shorter setting than the lowest allowed. My daughter is tall for her age, but the stilts would definitely be too tall for her.
These are solidly made. I would recommend them for any kids that want to walk on them, but they should probably be at least seven years old rather than five.』
(One size doesn't fit all) 『Would have been nice if the stilts could accommodate multiple/varying heights. Seems to be only two settings...if not just right for your child's height, the stilts are a little awkward to use. If you have two children of different heights, you have to change the settings...which cannot be done just by 'clicking a button'.』
(Big Success) 『Instant success as a Christmas present to 7 year old. Although adjustable, you can not reduce the length between the shoulder rest and the hand grip below a minimum. so a small-framed child can not use as shown. However this is no problem for an eager child who can easily cope and will grow into them eventually.』
(My daughter loves these) 『We got these stilts for a gift for our daughter. She loves them. They are well built, but still just a little to big for her(she is 9). She can still manage to maneuver around the house quite well. I would recommend them for purchase.』 『WalkAroo Stilts II are great for improving balance and coordination!
