1st birthday present
My daughter received this for her 1st birthday.She loves the revving engine and beeping phone.Unlike ride-ons I've seen in the past this one has anti-tip bar which makes it much steadier.We've only had it 2 days but so far she loves it.Improvements I'd make would be a horn on the steering wheel, a phone that comes off the dashboard, and when the voices says "let's sing our abcs" or "let's count to 10" it should actually do what it's requesting.So, not terrifically educational, but in my opinion that's not the point of a ride-on.

Baby in love
We have the old style of this toy, but as far as I can tell, it's the same, just different colors.It was given to my son when he was born, but we held off on giving it to him until he was 12 months.It was a little too big for him to sit on the seat and have his feet touch the ground all of the way, but he quickly grew into it.The first thing he did when we gave it to him for his birthday was to "rev" the engine!It was love at first sight.Now at 18 months, he's still completely in love with this toy!He'll push the button that plays the ABC song and dance along with the little kid singing!This toy is a real winner!!! ...

Great for small kids
This wagon is an excellent wagon.The seats are low and the sides are high such that the kids don't fall out.Our two year old loves to ride around the block in this wagon.Our neighbors have the same one and the kids love going down the street together.I found it easy to assemble and I think the door is pretty easy to use.My daughter cannot open it, but I don't really want her to open it, especially when we are riding.I like the idea of the tag-a-long trailer for this as well.

Most Useful Item We Have
My sister bought this for us for the baby shower.Thinking that we wouldn't use this till he was older we put it in the closet.When our son was born and we quickly found out that movement was the key to happiness.So we took his infant carseat, put it on the wagon and put him in it.That was a success story in itself.The baby could not be more content.When i was in the kitchen I could pull him in their with me.The days are over driving kids around to put them to sleep.I just pull mine around in the house.We have been using this since week one and we will probably use it until were are grandparents. We love this wagon

the best wagon there is!!!!
We bought this wagon at the begging of the summer for my two kids,ages 1 and 3. I think it is so great and they love to get in and out useing the door.Plus there is a little storage spot under one of the seat and when I say little i do mean little! but thats okay it was enough room for their coats or for a small toy. Plus the kids love the 2 cup holders where they can put their juice. I would definatley reccomend buying this wagon! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Radio Flyer's answer to the SUV, this standard red wagon (32 by13.5 inches internally) comes with a set of wooden extender rails thatattach to the metal body with 10 bolts, more than doubling theeffective capacity. (With the rail, it has a depth of over 9 inches.)Note, however, that the rails are .25-inch stock--too weak to withstandheavy loads like rocks or firewood. The wagon has the usual black metalhandle and white-hub solid rubber wheels. --Richard Farr ... Read more

Nice little wagon
This is a nice wagon but we have had the same trouble as others - the wood sides just don't hold up.They fall out all the time and it just gets aggravating.Wish I would have thought about an all-terrain wagon - that certainly would have lasted longer and I wouldn't be so aggravated.The assembly was okay, but I just think for the money, you could get something that was a little nicer and would hold up better.I'm thinking about replacing ours with something more sturdier.Our little one is quite rambunctious with things and this wagon really has trouble keeping up with our little one.

Great Wagon
I bought this wagon for my son when he turned 2 yrs old.My son is 3 1/2 now and the wagon is still in great shape!We keep it in his room and he uses it to store all of his toys during the cold months.When it's nice outside, I take him out in the wagon and he has a ball.I don't see any signs of chipping and the wooden sides are still sturdy.I highly recommend the Radio Flyer Trav-ler Wagon!

Love it
Classic gift.Love the higher sides to help keep the little one in it better.Got the umberlla as well. ... Read more

not worth $30 but worth $12 my son loves this toy
buy it only on sale $12 or less or used .

A Great Toy Except....
My daughter received this ride on for her second birthday and loved it! We had to take it right outside so that her grand mom could see her using her new toy. The problem with this toy is with the license plate part of it. It is longer than the wheels. So my daughter was scooting along and hit a crack in the sidewalk, the license plate got caught it and she went flying forward. She ended up with a bloody lip and two years later she still has a small scar. We didn't notice that the license plate area would cause a problem until then. My father in law then took it and sawed off the piece of the license plate that was longer then the rest of it and its been fine since then. I believe that you can see what I'm talking about from the pictures that are provided on the site.

Jessica Loves It!!!
We bought this for my daughters 1st x mas.. 12/02 she was 10 months old. It took her a few months to be able to ride it good. It kept her busy with all the buttons to push. I remember the batteries died real fast. It is very durable, i WOULD NOT reccomend it for the age they do up to 3 years. I would say up to 18 months maybe 24 months at the most. I have kept it incase my last child is a girl. Jessica and I are happy with it. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Your baby or small toddler may be too young to swim with adolphin, but it's not too early to swing with one! Molded in a singlepiece from tough blue plastic, this aquatic friend attaches to astandard swing set. It's cradled by four strong yellow polyurethaneropes that attach to two steel S-hooks. The dolphin's seat area is afull 8 inches deep, even at the sides, and is 12 inches at the back.Most important to parents is the safety belt, which is located justabove the leg holes. Even the worst squirm worm won't slip out. Theswing is designed to be installed so that the dolphin's belly is 16 to24 inches off the ground. --Richard Farr ... Read more

this is fun but one
my parents got this swing and my dad wants to put duck tape on the bottom and my mom wants to put plastice claps on the thing is if you read this and you want to put duck tape on the bottem don't , because its not safe.

great swing
We are about to put the swing up for child number 3. My oldest is almost 7 and the swing still looks like new! The swing is a good size for a variety of ages and fun shaped. The only problem is the ropes fray within a year leaving splinters in the childs hand. We replaced the rope once and now have simply duct taped (in matching yellow- they offer many colors now) the part of the rope that hands touch.

Good swing, bad rope
We have had this swing for nearly seven years, and the swing itself has held up in amazing shape. It has been used by my 2 children and my nephew, and will soon be handed back again for more use.The dolphin is terribly cute, very sturdy, and the thing swings quite smoothly.My one complaint has been about the yellow rope.After one year in the midwest weather (stored for the winter, mind you), the rope started to fray. Not in a way that would compromise the safety (it's not unraveling), but the rope developed all of these little sharp spines that made it feel like you were holding on to a thorny rose. Duct tape to the rescue! Yep, we taped it up, and now it is not very pretty but smooth for little hands to grasp and functional. ... Read more

Best purchase ever
I bought this train for my grandaughter 8 years ago for her second Christmas. Yea she rode around the little track on it but it wasn't the most thrilling adventure of her 19 month old life.I held onto it and lo and behold two years ago another grandchild! He started riding this train at 1 year on the track and quickly ditched the track for more adventuresome land (he is 2 1/2 now) and he barely gets off of it. He has figured out how to manuever it around the house, under the kitchen table and around many obstacles. It is the most used toy in our house. Peg Perego is the best I had to replace the battery and the starting switch. I called and within the week had my new items delivered to the door. Excellent quality item, excellent customer service. ... Read more

Cute
My daughter loves her lion, she recieved it as a gift when she was 4 months old, too young to ride it, but she loved listening to the music.

Doesn't work!
I was terribly disappointed when the music element on the first lion, then the replacement sent, didn't work!We tried everything to get the music to work but both toys were defective.Very disappointing for a high priced item.Seam stitching across back of lion also very uneven and tightly stretched - good possibility of quickly tearing.Contacting manufacturer directly also next to impossible but thankfully Amazon.com was easy to work with on the return. ...

A Parent's Nightmare
This toy took me three HOURS to assemble.The toy DOES come with a, "mixed bag of nuts and bolts."My daughter will be riding this around with no bolt or nut holding the seat on (not a huge safety issue to me as it will be used indoors on carpet).The hole for the bolt on the seat appeared to be crooked so I attempted to "modify it" only to find out an hour later that it was the nut--TOO SMALL!

Some of the stickers are ALREADY off--straight from the box.

This toy is a train wreck.The only reason I didn't return it was because of my slight modification.The sounds and lights are nice for my 20 month old; however, it isn't as educational as it boasts--only attempts to teach left and right.

A little difficult to assemble
Very cute toy, kids love it but it's somewhat difficult to assemble.

VERY POOR QUALITY
Assembling this toy is a headache.Aside from the poor engineering, the hardware provided was a mixed bag of mismatched bolts that didn't fit the holes and nuts.Also, as another review mentioned, the stickers were already coming off.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with Tek Nek?Their website is down and the two phone numbers I have are useless recordings or non-functional.Sounds like they're avoiding their customers... ... Read more

First Choice Coming in the Door
Grandson #1 heads right for this car on every visit.Grandson #2 (who lives farther away) will be getting his own this year.Good toy for starter training any saddle riding sport (trikes, bikes, horses). Won't tip over. The limited steering radius makes this suited as an indoor toy.

Not a great ride-on
My daughter likes to ride on this car and beep the horn, but we only use it inside.I tried taking her outside on it once, but it is so unmaneuverable that I gave up.Radio Flyer seems to be good at wagons, not so good with other wheeled toys (a friend has a Radio Flyer tricycle that is top heavy and tips over constantly.)

Disappointed
This toy is more of a nostalgic collector's piece. It is heavy & unmaneuverable.It'll go straight but doesn't really turn. Keep it indoors or the bright shiny surface will quickly become dull and faded. I guess the best part is the little squeeker horn. Still ... the boys (now 18 & 20 mos) sit on it all the time and have learned to make it go with their feet on the patio outside. Most of the time they sit on it and push the button (horn) to make it toot! If I had to do it over again - I wouldn't buy this toy! ... Read more

More Information
This site does not include enough info about which models of the Radio Flyer this seat fits.It fits model #s 31, 89, 98, 90 and 18.Unfortunately, you will have to visit the Radio Flyer web-site to find out more info about this seat and other wagons.The site is www.redwagons.com.Good luck!

to fit the Big Red Stake Wagon...
For the Big Red Stake Wagon [has wood rails (that say "big red ATW) around one end of the wagon] you must install the seat so the child's back is facing the handle or you need to take the rails off.The seat strap does fit around the wagon but you must adjust the straps at all three ends.They must be all the way at the end of the strap including the end that has the CAUTION label (i removed the label to secure the buckle to the strap).This is the only way the safety strap will fit completely around the wagon.

It fits!
I just received my wagon seat today and was scepticle on whether it would fit my wagon or not after reading the other reviews.Well it fit.I have the Big Red Stake (ATW) which is 50% deeper than the standard wagon and it also has the wooden rails.The seat needs to be installed on the opposite end of the rails and the (3) buckles of the strap need be closest the ends.I also needed to remove the CAUTION label to use that part of the strap - but it does fit! ...

Fun, with a few drawbacks
We got this truck for my son when he turned 1, and at 18 months he still loves it. Overall I'm still pleased with it too, but there are a few things I don't like, and now I'm looking for a new riding toy that doesn't have these issues:

- The seat has no "butt curve" and it's kind of high off the ground for kids under 18 months, so my son straddles it a bit awkwardly. With shoes on he can push it along now.

- Because the seat is flat, he thinks it makes a wonderful stepstool, but then it rolls out from under him! Use caution on non-carpeted surfaces especially. I've had a few coronaries already from turning around to discover my son wobbling precariously atop the toy, reaching for glasses, knives, etc. that I thought were safely tucked away.

- This may just be our toy, but we have a problem with the sounds going off by themselves, especially the sound effects for the pegs under the seat. We have changed batteries and it still happens. Usually when it starts going off we just take out the batteries, but my son notices and doesn't like it as much.

- I disagree with reviewer who said the sound effects aren't loud. Ours are! I wish it had volume control.

On the plus side: Babies LOVE all the buttons to push for sayings, music and sounds. You will quickly learn the toolman's song too! I like that it has a safety bar underneath to keep it from tipping backwards. And so far it's very sturdy other than the short in the sound board. Like I said, still happy with the purchase, but now I have a better idea what kind of riding toy I'd like him to have.

Great fun!
My son received this for his second birthday.He already had a ride on but the seat dipped low and since he is tall for his age, he wasn't able to ride and scoot.This seat is a good height.He plays with it all the time and it has become his favorite.He loves to hammer the pegs and the sound effects are not too loud.I agree with the other reviews about the stickers.They are not put on very well, kinda bubbly.Other than that,its a great hit!!!

My son loves it!
We just got this for my sons 2nd birthday and it is his new favorite toy. The sound is not load at all which is nice. Though like the other reviewer I did have an issue with the stickers but I just went over them all and made sure they were on good. Now my only problem is that my 4 year old likes to fight with her brother over this toy! We give this toy 2 thumbs up!!! ... Read more

Nice addition to my son's wagon
I ordered this for model #1800(Exclusive Big Red Stake Wagon). It fits perfectly and is comfortable. I was tired of using blankets that kept slipping around against the metal bed. This pad is vinyl and stays put. Can be easily wiped clean .

Great pad for the right wagons
This little bed pad is perfect for the Radio Flyer models: #89, #90, #95, #98, #99, #18, #22, #24, #28, #31, #32, #1800. Make sure to purchase the special pad if you own the Model #29 All-Terrain Cargo Wagon.The radio flyer website explains the difference.My 2-year old is able to take longer rides in our wagon (#32) with the pad - he's not nearly so antsy to kneel or stand as he was on the metal alone.

Pad is to short for wagon
I purchased the all-terrain cargo wagon from toysrus and they referred me to you for ordering the umbrella and pad. I chose the pad only and it doesn't fit. I took it to the ranch where we are using the wagon and it is too short. Do you have a pad for the #29? Thanks for your help ... Read more

Sally Sheep rocks!
Sally's a little pricey, so it helps if you're a gradparent with a soft spot in your heart for a cute face, solid construction and easily washability, if she's going to make her way into your home.

She comes with a sturdy plastic zip bag for storing after granddaughter (or even grandson) finally outgrows her. Storing, that is, until the next generation falls in love with Sally all over again.

She's even a great footrest in addition to being a safe, low-to-the-ground rocker.

Our only caution is to be careful not to introduce the battery-operated "baa-baa" capability until she has become a secure and accepted member of the family. It's much more fun to teach the younger generation what Sally says rather than rely on technology to do it for you. ... Read more

Button is hard for toddlers under 3 to press
I bought this toy for my son's 1st birthday. He is now 22 months and it is still hard for him to steer it and press the
"go" button.He still has fun with it and I am glad that I bought it, but even though the age said 12 months and over, I should've waited and bought him a bigger one once he got older.

Wonderful
My Son loves this ride. he even rides it in the house. He Hasnt been outside with it alot b.c it has been cold outside. But When it gets hot I know he is going to enjoy it more. Its real easy to use. all they do is push the button and it goes forward. I havent had to charge it since we got it for him for X-mas.

My 12 month old loves this car
After reading other reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this item.Other parents were a little discouraged by the push button start.I figured since I was so taken with all the other aspects, we would try it anyway.After approximately 10 minutes in the kart, my 12 month old was pressing the button and cruising in his new car.He absolutely loves it, and both myself and my husband are pleased with the purchase.The only feature I would add is reverse.Overall, a great buy. ...

Cute pony...
We bought this for our year old son and he seems to really like it.Even though he's too young to rock on his own, with our help he likes to ride this toy. And to the previous reviewer, to change the batteries, there is a little velcro closing underneath the area on top of the head.If you open that, the battery compartment is there!!!

Daughter Loves Her Pony!
We bought this pony for my 18 month old daughter and for about a month she was scared to death of it. But now she loves it BUT after a month the batteries have worn out and we can't figure out where the barreries are so don't throw away your directions! Other than that I would buy again.

Not so great to put together
This toy looked like a great idea for my son.However, I just got done writing the manufacturer to find out how to solve the fact that I can't get all of the screws to stay in.They simply aren't long enough.Plus, fitting the top part into the rocking base was more than a little difficult.The concept was easy but the amount of strength and ingenuity required to put them together was almost too much!I had to use a screw driver to help ease the parts together--you'll know what I'm talking about when/if you buy it. ...

Great Ride!
This was an absolutely great gift we got! My son got it for his second birthday. It took me about an hour to put together. Nothing too serious, but a second pair of hands was needed to put the wheels on. (It recommends this in the directions anyway.) Very easy for a child to maneuver, (steering wheel makes smooth turns), and the handle is perfect for a helping push if they can't pedal yet. Fun design, and cool sound effects. My only problem is I have two boys and only one car! I highly recommend this to any liitle boy or girl who loves to "drive" around.

cheap!
my daughter got this for her 1st birthday after seriously thinking of returning this item I ended up putting it together.Nightmare!Just a pain to get together.Too many pieces..directions not exactly clear..there is barely a bounce...and doesn't even ride good...I knew I should have just returned it and got something else because after 1 week I put it out in the trash..Im just glad it wasn't my money that I spend. ...

All aboard! This ride-on or push toy (for engineers up to 3 feet tall) is a colorful train with someunique features. On one side of the pretend smokestack funnel is a lever that makes a barber pole spin, onthe other a lever that makes a silly squeaky noise. The top of the funnel is a working steering wheel that hasa spinning top with colorful balls that bounce and clatter once you push the button. With a tall, removablebackrest that doubles as a push bar for beginning walkers--and a seat that opens up to a compartment tohide important treasures--this is a great addition to any rail yard or playroom.--S.

FUN, FUN, FUN!!Well worth the money...
We got this train for my son when he was 10 mos. old (not even walking yet) and he is now almost 2 1/2 and still plays with it every day!This is some of the best money we've ever spent, especially on a toy.It is one of the first toys visiting kids play with and I am amazed at it's longevity.It still looks virtually brand new, too.Chicco makes very high quality products.

Great Ride On!
This was my son's Santa gift for Christmas. He was an early walker and 10mo old when he got it. He loved it from day one and pushed it all over. Since then he has learned how to ride it and one of his favorite things is to put things in the seat and push it around. He also love to sit on it and chase the dogs around. At 18mo old this is still one of his favorite toys and is standing up well to my son's constant use and abuse (he does stand on it and sit on it while its on its side). I love to find toys that don't flash and make noise. I think toys like this one encourage more imaginative play. The levers and stuff do reward exploration with spinning, squeaking and simple reactions. This is very sturdy and my son doesn't have any problems with it tipping over. This is definately one of our favorites.

What a fantastic toy!!
We got this for my son's first birthday, and it has been the most popular toy ever since...and even with our almost 4 year old. They fight over it...they love the flip up seat to store all of their little cars and other toys. And the gadgets are great! This is a super sturdy toy..both of my boys have stood on it at one time or another..it seems it can hold up to any abuse! The only thing I would change is to perhaps make the back handle fit more snuggly, but this would only be for parents..when I try to pick it up and move it, the handle comes out everytime...but that's no big deal. We love this toy and couldn't be more pleased! ... Read more
