Kid Trax Side Kick Scooter Electric Ride On Review

Kid Trax Side Kick Scooter Electric Ride On
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
A little small for my 3 1/2 year old, but all he wanted for Christmas was a scooter and this was the only suitable one I could find. He loves it and that is all that matters! Plus its small enough that he can ride it in our (small) house, which means we don't have to be outside watching him all the time since he wants to ride it morning, noon and night! Also the sidecar is big enough for our 7 lb. dog to ride in!

Razor Ground Force Electric Go-Kart Review

Razor Ground Force Electric Go-Kart
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had a Power Wheels toy for my girls when they were 2 and 4. Now that my son was turning 4, I didn't want him driving around in a pink Barbie Jeep.
I went and bought the Ground Force but it is significantly faster - the Power Wheels tops out at 5mph (but also allows you to lock the speed to a max of 2.5mph), whereas the Ground Force has a max speed of 12mph.
I must say though, that I (a 40 year old man who weighs 165 pounds) LOVE this thing...It was fast, nimble and my neighbors got used to seeing me drive around the neighborhood. But, ahem, where was I? Oh yes, back to the kids.
My 6 and 9 year old daughters love this car since it is significantly faster than their old Power Wheel car. I was even able to take my 6 year old out with it when I went roller blading and she was able to keep up with me and then some (we went out for about an hour (so figure we went about 8-10 miles since we weren't going the full hour.
That being said, it is way too fast for my 4 year old...and even my 6 year old who knows how to drive was doing a series of figure 8's in the street at max speed and loving it...when she lost control and ran full speed into the curb...she was NOT a happy camper, although she wasn't seriously hurt.
The car does sit low though...so if a child were to run under an SUV...there is a very real chance the child could be seriously hurt though because their face would smack into the bumper...so PLEASE be mindful.
I allowed our friend's daughter who was 5 to drive the car in an very open field and she loved it...but ended up losing control as well and running into a play structure. She hurt hurt herself and broke the seatbelt because she panicked and went full speed into the structure...she wasn't seriously hurt...but I have definitely re-thought my stance about letting ANY child under 8 or 9 drive the cart by themselves.
Because there is no way to lock out the max speed...the children should be very carefully supervised. I do drive my 4 year old in my lap (and even drove him to pre-school one day in the morning (which he loved btw). Of course, I did look a bit stupid driving home in this go kart in the morning near the school...but my son was VERY excited! ;)
Please please be careful with this car with young children.

National Products 12V Black Mercedes Benz G-Class Battery Operated Ride-on Review

National Products 12V Black Mercedes Benz G-Class Battery Operated Ride-on
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is an Mercedes officially licensed product. So the look and feel is somewhat more sophisicated. It has decent power. It is also quite tolerant to different road surface. It fits 2 small toddlers or 1 7 yr old (the product only mentioned 3 yr+, 130 lb max)
The smaller shipping cartoon means the reduced shipping cost is at the expense of more parts to assemble. Compare to some other cars in this category, this one takes much more time to assemble. The manual is reasonably clear. The package comes with enough spare parts for you to goof a few times.
However, one unexcusable goof is by the maker. One of the rear-wheel gear connectors came loose during shipping. If you snap it the way the alignments indicated - kaboom - one wheel would go forward and one would go backward, and you won't find out until after *EVERYTHING* is assembled. It took me another hour to undo half the steps to correct it. So....make sure you test the rear gears first.
The stickers are plastic kind - rather delicate but at least water-proof. Just peel it off very slowly.
Overall, pricy compared to the Hummers and Jeep. But it's an Mercedes.

Peg Perego Usa John Deere Gator Hpx Review

Peg Perego Usa John Deere Gator Hpx
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My son received this from his grandparents for 3rd birthday. My son loves tractors and he has a little brother so the two-seat Gator was a perfect choice over some of the other vehicles out there.
It was the hit of the party. My son jumped right on and started riding. After about a week, he had the hang of putting it in reverse and in high and low. It comes with a screw adjustment so that you can leave it as is and it will go 2.5 mph or take the screw out which give you a second gear and allows it to go 5 mph. We took the screw out because it just gave it more power. Our yard is a little bumpy and the Gator would get stuck in the ruts and spin its tires in low gear but in high gear, it zips right along.
My biggest complaint is that it needs a shut-off switch or a key that can be turned off and taken out. (It has a key but it is not functional but is just for play.) The boys can jump on and take off before we've had a chance to buckle them in and put their helmets on. It's also hard to get them to stop and I usually always end up getting my foot run over getting them out because if their foot is still on the pedal then it will run. I really wish it had a key that you could just reach over and turn it off. We completely unhook the battery now so we know they cannot get on and ride without supervision.
The battery is also not very easy to get to. You must remove a screw and snap the front of the machine off to access the battery. It is recommended that you charge the battery immediately after each use so it would be nice if it was more conveniently located. We bought a 2nd battery so we could have one charged up at all times.
Overall, it is a great, fun toy that has plenty of power but I still think it needs a little more safety devices. It would also be nice if the Gator wouldn't start unless the seatbelts were snapped. We have another machine that works that way and it is a nice safety feature.
We are just keeping a very close eye on our boys to ensure that they are always properly secured and have their helmets on. They love this so much that riding their Gator is their favorite thing to do.

Power Wheels Dora Lil' Quad Review

My daughter just turned 1. She can't even walk yet, but she can get on/off the Lil Quad by herself. She drives this thing all over the front yard! She can't steer, but I don't have to help her too often. Her little friend next door loves riding it, too. Her mom's going to get one so the girls can ride together instead of taking turns. The front wheels stay on fine if they are assembled properly. The stickers do come off easily and get torn. This is a great little ride!
