Power Wheels Disney/Pixar Cars Lil' Lightning McQueen Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Tonight we went to a chain toy retailer and looked at this toy with my 14.5 month old son. I am buying it for him for Christmas but wanted to see what it was like in person and if he would like it, as I know he won't remember it come Christmas.
It seemed really sturdy. He is a good walker. He was able to get in and out of it with ease. He loved pushing the button on the steering wheel that makes Lightning McQueen noises.
It is about half the size of a normal Power Wheels toy. I think it will be ok to play indoors with until it gets warm enough outside, and honestly I think it rivals the Cozy Coupe just motorized.
There is no gas petal, just a stop and go button on the steering wheel. The toy store had this "gas button" disabled. So therefore I can't vouch for speed, etc.
Grandma said if I didn't buy it for him she would lol because he LOVED it. : )
UPDATE TO REVIEW AFTER 1 MONTH OF USE:
Well, its been about a month since Christmas and it took my son a little time to warm up to it.. but now he is happily cruising around the house in it from time to time. At first he was scared/startled by the movement. after a while.. he loves it. I don't think it goes too fast. I have to walk along side him though and help him steer it at this point because he keeps smacking into furniture though. I don't think this would be such an issue outside.
We like this toy.
I did but it on amazon, and I felt the price was right and it arrived quickly.

New Star My First Power Racer Car in Blue Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a nice little car, with a safe slow speed for very young children. Can change from forward to reverse with the flip of a switch, and can be steered right and left with the steering wheel. I bought this for my daughter's 1st birthday thinking that it may be a little advanced for her age. Not so! Within the hour she had learnt to drive the car, honk the horn, and press all the little sound butttons. The finer points of reverse and steering are still a little beyond her.
Pros:
- Great price for all the features it has
- Low to the ground, so not far to fall
- Safe yet fun speed. Its not too fast, but its powerful enough to ride smoothly on thick carpet, and will push any other toys in the way.
- Reverse is a must-have feature if you don't constantly want to be pulling your child out of corners.
- Honking horn on steering wheel is not too loud or harsh sounding. It isn't annoying like some others out there.
- Battery holds its charge well. Looks like durable construction.
Cons:
- We didn't realise that the accelerator is actually a foot pedal. (We thought it had a push button on the steering wheel - but no). As it turns out, our one year old figured it out within the hour so it hasn't been a problem. *However, it is dangerous while dismounting*. If the child tries to dismount on the right side, they can step on the pedal with all their weight causing the car to shoot forward, and we've had a couple of spills already. We are trying to teach her to mount and dismount from the other side only - not easy! If not for this big problem, I'd give this car 5 stars.
- The seat doesn't have a back support. Also you're sitting saddled across this - not "within" a car. True, the car doesn't go fast enough to have her jerk backwards, but it would be safer and more comfortable to be able to lean back.
- To re-charge, the screws have to be removed from the seat top. Not too much of a hassle though.
Overall we're glad we bought this. Its an affordable option and now that we are sure she enjoys the ride, we can invest in one with more bells and whistles as she gets older.

Kettler Kettrike Happy Navigator Tricycle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 14 month old son can not get enough of this trike.The 3 in 1 freewheel is what makes this trike stand out. The nearly identical version of this trike by Kiddo does not have freewheel, so the pedals continue to move and hit your child's feet when an adult is pushing. The pedals on the Navigator stay in place, making it a much more enjoyable ride for youngsters who can not pedal on thier own. The Navigator is also more sturdy and easier to assemble. I highly recomend this model over other, less expensive versions.

Ideal for children just learning to get around on their own, the HKS Kettrike Happy Navigator tricycle boasts several versatile features for kids and the grownups who love them. The trike employs Kettler's telescoping Quick-Adjust frame, which invites parents to expand the trike each time their toddler experiences a growth spurt. The telescoping frame is a must for parents who don't want to ditch the trike after just a few months of use.
Kids will also love the Auto-Freewheel function, which lets them rest their feet on the pedals while a parent guides them around with the pushbar. And thanks to the Parental Control steering lock system, kids won't be able to steer the trike in random directions while the grownups push. Other details include a patented rear wheel steering system with an on/off mechanism and MaxXtread wheels with a dual-layer safety tread wheel pattern that keeps the trike from spinning on wet pavement or other slippery surfaces. As with all Kettrikes, the HKS Kettrike Happy Navigator is backed by a lifetime main frame warranty and three-year limited parts warranty.
