Great buy

Great bike. Runs great on grass. It's acutally pretty fast. My husband and I like that it STOPS when our daughter takes her foot off the gas, instead of continuing to coast.

My Child's First Car

My husband and I just got this Jeep for my daughter's second birthday. My daughter was THRILLED to say the least when she seen her "new car." She is a little above average height for her age (a little over 36 inches) and she was able to reach the pedal just fine. She has had it for 2 days now and has gotten pretty good with steering it. I highly recommend taking your child to an open field where they can practice without mowing down pedestrians. :) I gave this Jeep 3 stars for durability because we have only had it for two days and that is not an adaquite amount of time to fully judge it's durablity. However, my daughter id ride it around are small kitchen and hit the stove, chairs, and wall a few times and the Jeep was fine. This Jeep goes over grass, gravel, concrete, and just about anything! We were wuite surprised because we thought she would be getting stuck a lot and we'd have to do a lot of pushing. We had Toys R Us put together the Jeep because though my husband is quite the handyman, he just didn't have hours to put aside to asemble the Jeep. Toys R Us forgot to give us the instruction sheets so when we brought it home, we just winged it. It is very simple to operate, there's one pedal on the right that the child pushes to make the Jeep go forward. By pressing a botton near the cup holder by the floor, the child can make it go in reverse. We haven't showed her how to go in reverse yet because we want her to be able to feel comfortable going forward first. Without having an instruction sheet, we had no idea how long to charge the battery. We ended charging it for about eight hours. We intent on calling Toys R Us to get all the instruction sheets that come with the Jeep that we never recieved. Well I guess we didn't charge the battery long enough because it died about 2 hours later. Our daughter was so upset, she thought she had broken her "new car." So, my husband actually had to push her home in the Jeep-and the Jeep is not light. We fully intend on buying an extra battery and charger so that never happens. I highly recommend it for all of you who want to buy this Jeep for your child. I thought it to be educational because it teaches my daughter forward, backwards, left, and right and improves her motor skills. And fun? This toy is a definite 5 STARS! We could not keep her off of the Jeep. She was the envy of all the kids in the park. This Jeep is a definite MUST HAVE!

My little sister

My little sister owns this toy and I find that it is a very good toy for thge little kids it's just that they need to take time and learn how to steer it. I'm glad that it was recalled and all the problems have been fixed with ther fires, ect. Luckily, I have decided to use this product for my school paper and so far I'm doing pretty great on it because it's such a great toy for the young ones! My little sister loves it and comes home from daycare and jumps right in it. Thanks!
