Product Advertising Claim: “Pure energy Pure fun”
Why did I purchase it? This was a Christmas gift from Nana to my 2 1/2 year old daughter.
1. Is the price comparable to similar products? Although this is similar to a tricycle, I have never seen any product similar at all. The price is comparable to that of a good tricycle and as it can hold up to 100 kg (220 lbs) it is great for any kids up to any age. I think that my 14 year old spent as much time on it as my 2 1/2 year old.
2. Is it widely available? I had never heard of this product but a quick look on the internet and it is very widely available at baby/kid boutiques all over Canada. It is not available at any chain stores that I could see but I know you can find a retailer near you to pick one up.
3. Is it easy to use? Oh my, yes! My 2 1/2 year old still cannot understand the pedals on her tricycle but she had this down pat in minutes. She can steer it and get it going quite fast with very little effort.
4. Does it require special/additional equipment? NO.
5. Is there extra cost to use the product properly? NO.
6. Is it safe? Yes. It uses high quality plastics, it is rugged & durable, deceptively simple to use, no pedals, no gears and no batteries or power source.
7. Is it “green”? I have to say yes to this as it is a toy that you can buy when your child is young and it will last for many, many years.
8. Are the advertisement’s claims correct? Yes.
9. Does it works as it claims? Yes, yes, yes!
10. Would you recommend this product? Honestly, before you ever buy a tricycle or bicycle, you need to get one of these. It is a definite child pleaser and works for all ages. The problem you will find is that your kids will fight over it!
