Radio Flyer Big Flyer, Pink Review

Radio Flyer Big Flyer, Pink
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought the pink big wheel for my daughter and the red one for my son for their 4th birthday. They love riding them. Assembly was not bad at all and it seems pretty durable. I really like the flag that comes on the back so they are more visible to cars. My kids are average height for their age and my son is on the small side and with the seat in the first setting, he is able to pedal with no problems. For the price, if your child is as active as mine, and will ride it often, it is worth it. I love that it comes in red and pink. This way, they have his and hers big wheels.

Fisher-Price Dora Explore with Me Trike Review

Fisher-Price Dora Explore with Me Trike
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My mother bought this tricycle for my daughter's 2nd birthday, and we were so excited putting it together because she's crazy about Dora. Two of the stickers ripped in half when I tried to peel them off the paper, even though I was careful, so I wasn't too happy about that. The buttons are also very loud, which is probably okay if you're outside, but I would like to have a switch to turn the volume down for indoor use.
Everything else aside, however, my biggest problem came when my daughter tried to ride her new bike. She is 35 inches tall (75th percentile), yet only one foot reached a pedal...it will be several more months before she can even begin to use this tricycle. The seat was on the closest setting, too. We'll be returning this product if possible and getting a bike designed for 18 months to 3 years.

Hop on this sweet trike, made specially for little explorers! Flashing flower directional blinkers and real English/Spanish voice phrases from Dora herself help little ones learn "left" and "right" as they ride. The pretty basket up front holds all of your little girl's treasures, and sweet sounds, music and voice phrases from the electronic dash add to the fun. Trike is equipped with durable tires, easy-grip handlebars, slip-resistant pedals and an adjustable, grow-with-me seat for years of riding fun and adventure.

16-Inch Original Big Wheel Review

16-Inch Original Big Wheel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!! Only giving 1 Star because I cannot give ZERO stars.
The only thing this product has in common with the "Original" Big Wheel is the name and stickers (which Alpha International and Gamma 2 apparently bought, hoping to cash in on the nostalgia-market of my demographic).
By my count a full 20 of the 46 (43%) reviews on Target.com reported missing parts. This review makes 21 (& bumps the percentage to 45%). That is an unacceptable failure rate, and does not even account the negative reviews relating to the near-impossibility of actually putting the big wheel together.
We purchased this toy for our son for Christmas. Building it prior to Christmas, I discovered the big wheel was missing the axle. Thank you, Target, Alpha International, and Gamma 2 for leaving me to explain to my 2 1/2 year old that he could not have the one thing for which he actually asked, because "Santa goofed." When I was finally able to get a hold of someone who could take an order for a new part, I was shipped two rear wheels, not the axle needed. Another phone call resulted in the delivery of an EMPTY container, so poorly packaged that the axle slid out while in transit. Today I finally received the axle and again tried to build the gift (a full FOURTEEN days after Christmas). On my first attempt to insert the seat posts into the corresponding holes on the frame of the big wheel, the right post broke.
The "customer service" number in the instructions is a joke; all Big Wheel inquiries must be made via[...], which advises that there is a 5-7 lead time before they can / will respond. Target's corporate call center was less than helpful, giving the standard "so sorry to hear that" line without offering much in the way of resolution.
46 reviews and a 1.5 Star rating [....]... What is Target going to do to respond to this? Target... if you cannot do business with reputable partners who provide quality products, why should the public do business with you?

Fisher-Price DC Super Friends Batman Lights & Sounds Trike Review

Average Reviews:

My 2 year old is still too short to reach the pedals, even with the three adjustable seat positions, but he can scoot himself along. He loves this bike and everytime we go outside he wants to ride it. It has many different types of sounds with simple button pushes....(i.e. turning left, right, batman theme song, engine rev and much more). The stickers really add to how nice it looks but will start to come off if they get wet. He has had it for a couple of months now and it seems to be pretty durable. Of course the wheels start to wear but it's like any other wheel (bike, car, etc) that moves along the ground. The other kids in the neighborhood love it too. I would highly recommend this bike.

J. Lloyd 9" BW Boys Little Wheel Review

J. Lloyd 9 BW Boys Little Wheel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This big wheel is tiny! It looks like a regular big wheel that shrunk in the wash, which is exactly what I wanted. I find trikes to be overrated- little kids find it comforting to be low to the ground, and as a parent, I like that too. This is the only big wheel option I could find designed for the toddler. My almost two-year-old daughter adores it. She is on the small side (about 31 inches tall), and her feet reach the pedals but her leg is fully extended at the furthest point. In the two days since she received the toy, she hasn't "gotten" the pedal thing but she loves to sit on it and push with her legs. Once she figures out she can pedal, watch out!
Assembly was a little bit stressful. When it says "requires assembly", it means that you get every single tiny little part in the box and you have to put the entire thing together. Overall, the assembly is not difficult to do, but the directions are terrible. The illustrations are too small and a little bit fuzzy, so it took some careful study for us to figure it out. Take your time, and save the wine until after it is together! That is the reason it only gets a 4 star from me. Do an internet search for "my first big wheel" and you will find other manufacturers that sell it pre-assembled, for a price. Might be worth it if you don't like to put things together.
Someone else mentioned the clicking noise. The clicker is optional- you need to install the clicker so that the wheels are properly spaced, but you can break off the prongs that actually make the clicking. We like the clicking so there will be no stealth big wheeling in the house, but I can see how you might also find it annoying.
Overall, I think this is the perfect toy for my daughter and see hours of happy riding with it!

The Big Wheel is still a big hit with kids today. My granddaughter did not enjoy riding her tricycle. The Big Wheel is more stable, with a lower center of gravity. She got on it and rode off like a pro. Easy to assemble; sturdy construction and kids still love 'em.

Radio Flyer Twist Trike Review

Radio Flyer Twist Trike
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just bought this tricycle for my son who will be 2 in a couple of weeks. He is almost 35 inches and several inches too short for this tricycle. I am disappointed the manufacturer advertises this bike for 2+ years, but doesn't qualify it with the child's height needed to ride the bike. While the bike is adjustable, it isn't adjustable until your child is ready for the chopper side. That means your child has to be about 36-37 inches at least to be tall enough to start using this bike. My son was so excited to have his first bicycle, but is too small to ride this one. The advertising is misleading...
The bike was easy to assemble and appears to be sturdy. I would recommend it for parents of older children (or taller 2 year olds).

This durable riding toy grows with your child and will keep him wheelin' for years. The Twist Trike is a two-in-one toy that twists from a trike to a chopper in a few easy seconds. Kids can pedal around on the trike for the recommended age range of two to four years old. When they grow out of it, parents can use the patented quick-release twist 'n lock mechanism to transform the trike into a chopper. Designed for ages four to seven, the chopper sits lower on the ground with a single tire in front and two in back. When in chopper mode, the seat adjusts, so it grows with your child. Both styles feature a durable molded construction and a controlled turning radius for stability. The body measures 31.5" x 23" x 34". Holds up to 65 pounds.

Radio Flyer 79S Big Flyer Review

Radio Flyer 79S Big Flyer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wanted to replace a tricycle, because our son was wheeling downhill too fast for me and I wanted him on a more stable, less likely to tip over three wheeler. Now four and at 42" tall, he is just big enough to pedal it. He has a bit of a problem going up our slight hills, but I think that will improve as he gets taller. The adjustable seat works well, and overall is well made and easy to assemble. The flag makes him more visable, but I do not let him ride without me along side on my bike anyway. For me, it is the coolest looking Big Wheel out there. With two more adjustments left in the seat, there's plenty of room for him to grow.

Big Wheels - 16 inch The Original Review

Big Wheels - 16 inch The Original
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this item for my 2 year old's birthday. Unfortunately he is not quite big enough to reach the pedals, but his older brother (almost 4) loves it. He is zipping around the driveway and we even put out pieces of plywood for 'jumps'. He has used it all summer with zero problems.
I read the complaints about the durability and was concerned about purchasing the big wheel, but there is not alternative product out there in the same price range. I decided to go for it and I'm glad I did. Make no mistake - assembly is a pain. Everything went smooth except getting the pedals on. I ended up taking it into my shop and bracing it on my work bench while I tapped the pedal into position with a hammer. I was worried about breaking the plastic with the hammer, but using extra caution I was able to get the pedal COMPLETELY into place. I suspect that anyone who had problems with the pedals falling off only got the pedal on partway. It took 10-15 minutes to get these pedals on and I couldn't pull them off if I tried.
If you're looking at the big wheel for your little one, I say go for it. Instructions should say 'patience required', but take a deep breath, do it right the first time, and then sit back and enjoy watching your kids have a blast zipping up and down the driveway.
