6V Quad 4 x 4 Pink
Sep 22nd
My 22 month old received this as a gift for Christmas. She rides it in the house for now because of the weather outside. She has already figured out how to drive it. Its the perfect speed for her. We’ve only had to charge it once since she received it. So it holds the charge for awhile. It’s a little loud but I guess that’s to be expected. Bottom line is she loves driving it.
This toy was easy to assemble, Our grand daughter just loves it. She is three and is very fearful of rides that move, but this atv’s slow pace is perfect for her. A more adventurous child will want a more powerful atv, I am sure.

Battery Operated Junior Quad
Sep 21st
My 18 month old son got it for Christmas and it is the only toy that he constantly keeps playing with. He just now mastered the art of pushing the rev/ffwrd button and understanding that it will actualy make him go in those directios. The only 2 things I don’t like is that if he is stuck up against a wall and keeps pushing the pedal, the littl black rubber strip on the one wheel leaves a black mark on your carpet(it eventually goes away if you rub it with your foot really hard). The other thing is that the stickers are starting to peel off already after only 1 month. But other than that, it is his favorite toy and mine as well!
My son loves adventure, however I was a little disappointed in how slow this bike went. Also, he doesn’t know how to work the pedals that great so he’s a little scared to ride it now. Since only one wheel is powered, the bike can get stuck easily.
Overall, I would say this is good for very young children, but it will have to be replaced quickly because there’s just no fun factor. Think a very slow stroll.
Very easy to put together, seems quality built. I hate that you have to unscrew the seat to get to the battery for charging.

Barbie Lil’ Quad
Sep 17th
I bought this jeep for my 16 month old granddaughter for Christmas and she loves it. She jumped right on it, and at first when she pressed the button to go forward it jerked forward to quickly and scared her. I thought oh well, come spring time she’ll get use to it. All of a sudden she jumps back on and took off down the hallway. She has to learn to steer it straight, but that will come in time. Grandpa says its easy to put together. Its durable and I think it will last a long time.
We bought this quad for my 19 month old for Christmas, and she absolutely loves it. Not only has it been a joy to her, but my 4 year old loves riding it too. I was surprised at how much power this thing has as my 4 year old is able to cruise acrfess the grass on it. If you are looking for an inexpensive quad for your little one this one is a sure buy.

Stylish 110cc Four Wheeler ATV Specs
Jul 16th
Purchased two of these back at Christmas for my two oldest kids. Warrenty is very limited so use them a lot in the first 60 days to make sure they work. Had the CDI go out on one of the units in the first week and another go out a few months later. Purchased 6 extras for $5 each so I don’t have the same problem again. Takes about 30 seconds to switch it out so it is an easy fix once you know the symptoms. These obviously are made in China (nearly all these 110s are actually made in the same factory no matter what the brand) not Japan. The motors are relatively simple and easy to work on. I have changed the oil and spark plugs and they work great. You should also plan on tightening up the chain when you get it. The manual is some of the worst English I have ever seen so just look at the pictures if you have questions. Parts are very easy to obtain and very inexpensive as you would expect. I tested these out several times before I let the kids ride them and my kids wear full protective gear (chest plate, helmet, goggles, and gloves.) I also ride them around for the first minute or two when they are warming up to make sure nothing has gone wrong prior to the kids riding them. Only other problem is that the design of the drive shaft loosens the chain when someone 150lbs or above rides it. So if you hit a big bump you may lose the chain. Again this is easy to put on and I keep it very tight now so that when a rider is on it the chain is perfectly tight. My kids are light weight so they never come close to having the chain come off. I on the other hand have had it happen a couple of times. Anyway, as long as you know what you are getting yourself into they are wonderful. It you have no mechanical ability stick to a well build Honda.

Stylish Razor Spark DLX Scooter kids escooter Highlights
Jul 4th
This is an awesome product, however we purchased two on-line from Amazon and only received one by the ‘guaranteed delivery date.’ We needed it for Christmas for our boys. We’re very disappointed that we have paid for the product but have not received it in time for Christmas. It was guaranteed by Dec. 22nd. FYI Don’t believe the guaranteed delivery date.
sturdy, well made, daughter loves it ~ purchased as open box for $53 & was perfect condition & better price than $70-80 new so feel this was a good deal. spark/flint cartridges do not last long but that was expected

Buy Power Wing Caster Scooter kids e-bike Details
Jul 2nd
I gave one of these to my 5 year old, rather active, grandson for Christmas 2007. He loves it, the neighborhood boys and girls his age and older love it, his 12 year old brother even loves it. Several neighbor parents have bought them for their kids, at least five. It is pretty safe and loads of fun. He wears a helmet but not the knee pads, etc. that are necessary with a skate board, and it does have a hand brake.
It goes with a kind of shifting motion like skating and can drift sideways to add to the thrill. He learned to do it very quickly. I gave the 12 year old a Rip-Stick which is a hit too, but not nearly as big as the Powerwing. The wing is for younger and less athletic kids, but seems like any kid can have fun on it. If you want to be the “cool” grandparent, get the Razor Powerwing.
My kids, ages 6, 8, & 14 love this scooter. When they are at school, I ride it–I’m 39. Doesn’t go as well uphill, or even a small incline, without manual pushes on the ground with your foot, but otherwise you can get it to roll around with both feet up, simply by swaying your body from side to side. It is an excellent design. I absolutely love it and so do my kids. Gets them out from behind the video games for a while.

Elite Razor Electric Scooter – E175 kids e-bike Review
Jun 29th
This is a very well made scooter, almost worked out of the box, we just received it 4 days ago and my son is enjoying it already. The specs says it runs for 40 minutes but it can run longer than that, battery charge does not seem to take 12 hours either(until the light on the charger turns green). One thing i did not like about it is that the plastic protective cover for the chain is so close to the ground that is almost impossible to make right turns without the thing touching the floor, not really sure how this did not come up during testing stages, this is obviously a design error, other than that it just works perfect.
This scooter was a Christmas gift for my son. He loves it! The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because of the short time we’ve had it and I will leave another review after a few months. Over all it was easy to put together,the charge last atleast 30min or more, and its fast. Made for a great gift for the price.

Pros of Razor Special Edition kids e-bike Review
Jun 16th
The “Special Edition” handlebar is not height-adjustable. Unless your kid is, what, who knows exactly how tall, this Razor is one to avoid. Proper handlebar height is essential to a safe and comfortable ride. My son is too short for this, and my daughter is too tall. The handlebars are fixed. There is no indication on the box that there’s no height adjustment. Its going back. A birthday disappointment.
We love the Razor scooter and it glides beautifully, but a nonadjustable scooter is a waste. I wish I would of bought another even if it cost more. We are disappointed, but daughter already opended for christmas so it is too late to return.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2A7MP9W8L7GQK I’m not even quite sure what my son is saying about the scooter, but hopefully you can see he likes it alot and has a bunch of fun with it!
We got this for our son when he was three years old ( he’s almost seven now ). It’s easily the best money we ever spent! It took almost no time to learn, and before long he was cruising around full speed all over the neighborhood. Most ( if not all ) other beginning scooters have two wheels in the back, but this design is sooooo much better!!! It’s way, way more stable, and yet still quicker and more fun for the child than any other scooter I’ve seen. It’s very easy to control and quite safe to ride. Everyone always wanted to know where we got it, and in fact, we have several friends who bought one after seeing ours, and their kids were all very happy with the scooter as well. On the flip side, the people across the street didn’t want to spend so much money, and so they bought a cheaper scooter – the kind with two back wheels and a bigger foot platform. Their son only rode it once that I recall in the last 3 years! Yet, he wanted to ride our son’s scooter every chance he could… meanwhile, the little guy next door ( who is 3 1/2 now ) got one for Christmas when he was 2 1/2 and has ridden it almost every day since he got it, weather permitting. THIS IS A GREAT SCOOTER, and YOUR CHILD WILL ACTUALLY USE IT! IT WILL NOT COLLECT DUST IN THE GARAGE. My son moved up to a 2-wheeled Razor scooter when he turned six, but even then, he was still enjoying the little micro scooter. He rode it solid for three years and it’s held up wonderfully. he would even take it to the skateboard park and got all kinds of positive comments on it from both the kids ( including the older ones ) and the parents! There is just nothing bad to say about this great little scooter. Any child would love it. It looks great. It rides great. It’s small and light enough to take just about anywhere. You will get years and years of fun from this. It’s the best beginning scooter anywhere and just right for kids from 2 to 6… GET IT: ) ***** THIS SCOOTER WAS ALSO KNOWN AS THE “MINI MICRO PRESCHOOL SCOOTER” and is made by Huffy. You can GOOGLE it – it’s still available at various stores!

Features of Radio Flyer kids Electric Bike Highlights

We bought this for our 4 year old last Christmas. She loves to goof off on it around the house. But will not ride it the full block, much less to the park. It does not roll or turn as easily as she would like. (By contrast, she flies on her bike.)
Probably great for 2 or 3 year old beginners. Decent stability in that regard. But we’re not impressed for the 4 to 5 year old set.
My daughter got this scooter for her 3rd birthday and she loves it! The great thing about it is that it has a large platform for my daughter to put both of her feet as she learns to push off and ride. It appears to be durable too. It is also very cute and lightweight to carry around. Great scooter! I recommend it!
