Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer & Stroll Trike, Red, for Kids 2-5, 2-in-1 Parent Steer Tricycle, Removable Push Handle, Adjustable Seat, Steel Frame, Covered Storage Bin, Tricycle for Toddlers and Kids

Yes, Grandparents. We got this tricycle for our 2-year old grandson's birthday. It's fantastic. It was easy to put together with minimal effort. It's smaller than the regular sized tricycle so his feet can reach the pedals! The handle bar in the back is the BEST EVER! No more bending down to help toddlers learn how to steer or pedal! Back Saver!!! The BONUS is you can steer the front wheel with the push bar! YES, you are in charge to gain ground even if they decide not to pedal. The seat is a perfect width to help keep them in over rockier ground and bumps. We have abandoned the stroller. The "boot" in the back holds snacks and a diaper. Thank you Radio Flyer!! I'm helping pedal that grandson to nap time daily! He loves it too!

We had a nice tricycle, and my 2 year old grandbaby wanted to ride it so badly, but they are made to pedal. A 2 year old doesn't understand pedaling. He just wanted to scoot it with his feet, which doesn't really work, and he would get so frustrated. Now, he loves this one, and so do I! He learned to pedal in one day, and was so proud of himself that he had to show everyone he could find lol. Now, I still have to help (push) some from time to time, and I love how easy it is for ME to steer it when needed, because for some reason he is obsessed with ramming parked cars. I would recommend this trike all day long, especially for Grandparents that can't bend all day to push the regular trike. This one is a genius upgrade!!

Construction was very simple. The only problem I had was when I had to hammer on the cap to the wheel. But it was a small issue that took me a few minutes to complete. Not a big deal. The bike is sturdy I have no worries about it being flimsy or falling apart. My husband is usually who takes care of constructing toys/furniture/etc. I was able to put the bike together in about 20-25 minutes with no help. It is very easy. The handle for parents is very useful. My daughter is 2 and does not understand that she needs to push the pedals to go. It is something we will teach her to do but for now being able to push and steer the bike for her is awesome! She loves sitting on her bike and riding around the neighborhood! When we push the bike and my daughter has her feet on the pedals it makes a clicking noise. If my daughter were to be pedaling the bike on her own there would be no clicking but because the pedals are not moving thats where the noise comes in. It does not bother me at all but just so you know. The price of this bike made me hesitate for a moment but I decided to go for it and I am so happy I did! The bike will grow with so I wont need to buy another for at least 4 years and the handle makes it so I wont break my back leaning over to push her through the neighborhood! Great functionality and quality!

I bought this for my babies third birthday this year. I wanted the pink however I did not get to purchase the pink because it was out of stock at the time of my purchase. However, the red can go to because I think it’s a mutual color for girls. I got it. It weighed about 17 pounds. It came partially fitted up, however I got someone to fit up the parts for me and it was not hard to follow the instructions that were given in the booklet. It is strong looks durable. It is a shiny red. The color is not too dull And it is good entertainment for the children and gives them good exercise too. I totally endorse you purchasing this for your child. It is a goodbye and it will hold a child older than three year old because it is not small or not too big for them.

So, like many others I've seen reviewing this particular trike, I thought that with enough patience and diligence, I'd be able to figure out how to put this thing together. I finally conquered the task, but have some recommendations for those attempting it: get the kids to sleep (my 2yo was "helping"), get an engineering degree, and pour yourself a stiff drink. The parts are poorly labeled and marked, particularly the bolts. For some reason there needed to be a 6 digit code for each, but they weren't in any real numerical order as far I can tell. And, the packaging doesn't really lend itself to identifying parts - I ended up laying them all out and just comparing the size. Also, pay attention to the slotted edges of most of the tube like pieces, there's not a lot of detail in the pictures to help you realize that some parts really need to be lined up to work. Don't cut the random part off the main body that's attached with a ribbon, either; apparently it's to connect the parent handle to the bike (whoops). Oh, and good luck hammering the back wheels on and continuing to have fingers. Other similar assembly required toys I've purchased had a small part to help give you a larger surface area to hit with the hammer (saving your fingers and patience) but this one seems to be a cruel joke on parents. Luckily, the small child loved playing with each and every part as I assembled, and absolutely loves the finished product. He demanded to ride it immediately, and thoroughly rings the bell every time. I will say, the bell ringer is a tab of plastic that gets pulled back to hammer the bell, and I won't be surprised when it breaks off due to fatigue. I'm just planning to purchase a separate bike bell to replace it in the future. Overall this is a great toy that I'm sure he'll get a lot of use out of, but I am also extremely glad that I will not be attempting to take it apart/put it back together at any other point in my or its lifetime.

We absolutely LOVE this trike! My daughter was so excited to ride her trike along side her big brother. Makes a great first tricycle for a toddler still learning and at a great PRICE! If you are thinking of buying this tricycle DO IT! The parent steering is an excellent idea for those who have a toddler still learning to pedal. My daughter got the hang of pedaling do to the wheels controlling the pedals it gave her the feel of pedaling easily and learning fairly quickly. Easy to put together and sturdy! Note: you do need some tools to put it together a cross head screwdriver, wrench and hammer.

This thing is awesome! We use it for visiting neighbor's, running to the gas station to buy milk, perusing the farmers market, some smaller grocery shopping trips, and once at the zoo. It would also be ideal at the mall (indoors or out) or a boardwalk or fair. We get compliments on it everywhere we go! And little one loves the independence. Z can't reach the pedals well enough to move it themself, but enjoys me pushing them around in it. And likes ringing the bell (whish has a pleasant old school ding, but can easily be removed if it bothers you). In my opinion, it's like a vastly superior alternative to a stroller that will transition into being used as a trike as Z gets older. I got it for their first birthday, which was the perfect age to start for us. I showed them how to hold on tight as I push it, and they do a great job. My neighbor's 1.5 year old son likes it so much they are going to get him one too :) Putting it together took a little time, but we followed the instructions carefully and didn't have any issues. My only warning is to pay attention to the weight limit. A couple 6 year old girls were also having a blast riding it around, and the handlebars came unattached (there was an audible pop when this happened) and had to be secured back on. But they are well outside of the recomended age. I think it's great for 1-3 year olds, and maybe also 4 year olds depending on their size.

I recently gifted my 3-year-old the Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer & Stroll Ride-On Trike, and it's been a hit! This trike is impressively durable, which is a huge relief for any parent. One of the standout features of this model is its unique design, where the pedals won't wheel in reverse. While this makes it easier for me to assist my child by pushing, it does pose a challenge when he wants to pedal independently. In those cases, he needs to put his feet down to stop or reverse, which can be a bit tricky for him. Similarly, the braking mechanism is another area of concern. Since he can't hold onto the pedals for braking, it can be difficult for him to come to a complete stop on his own. This means I need to keep a close eye on him, especially when he's navigating busy areas. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to assemble this trike. It took me about 20 minutes, and the instructions were clear and straightforward. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Radio Flyer trike provides hours of entertainment and helps my child develop coordination and balance. Plus, the classic red design is timeless and appeals to kids of all ages. Overall, while there are a few quirks to navigate, the Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer & Stroll Ride-On Trike is a durable and enjoyable ride-on toy that will keep your little one entertained for hours.
