I want to know how old the child is who has bought this item. Do you like it compared to other wheels. I am looking at the Do Art Wheel also

Dear Sherry. Our Pottery Wheel Special kit is suggested for ages 8 and up. I hope this information is helpful to you. -Meghan, HearthSong Customer Service

personally, i would say age 3 to 6, but older kids might like it too, like if they are visiting your house, or helping a younger kid with it. my daughter is 5 1/2 and still plays with it often. of course she has the motor skills down, but she still is entertained by making designs, and just using the tools, really.

The wheels are made of a very hard, thick, durable plastic.I have never had an issue with the wheels and we use it quite often! (About 3-5 times a week during sping/summer)The only "complaint" I have is that, while it is a BG wagon, it clearly shows 2 children sitting comfortably in it, but I guarantee they will be stepping on each others feet and there knees will be touching if they are 2+. I only have one child so it has only been an issue twice when I was walking my friends child and my son. This may not even be an issue for you, but I figured I'd give that info. Besides that, I absolutely love it. The wheels are made of a very hard, thick, durable plastic.I have never had an issue with the wheels and we use it quite often!

Hi! I bought it for my son who is 3.5 years old and he loves this very much. If your child is into Hot Wheel Cars and other varieties of trucks and cars I can imagine he'd have a good bit of fun with this. All levels of the Rig adjust to lower and off load the cars, it's well made, fun, great for imagination. I can easily see at that age though - depending - that it could be an item easily grown out of. Each parent knows their child best. The toy as I said is fantastic-O though. Hope this helps. Maybe something like a remote controlled car or some of those larger monster Hot Wheels Trucks would be better suited if you find this isn't to your liking. Good luck shopping. :)

It is quite sturdy. We really liked it, however my son outgrew it very quickly. He got it for his first birthday but had already out grown it (short wheel base, he would hit his feet with back wheels when trying to go, which didnt stop him from trying, but was quite sad to watch, ha. We had to put it up.) well before his second birthday. He is a touch on the taller side though, but I don't see it lasting until 3 reguardless. I think I remember wishing that the steering locked when he first started using it. Other then that it was perfect for one and we like it a lot.

I have had it for a couple of months. No issues. Came to us in perfect condition. I have two children 11 and 7 that look at it and spin it often. I recommend it.

We brought it for our granddaughter when she was 18 months old and she loved it. She pulled it instead pushing it but nevertheless, she really liked it.Now she is two and has a doll carriage which she is liking very much, that needs to be pushed. If the child is a boy, I say go for it! Another option would be a small wagon because they like to cart around their things. I hope this helps. We have so much fun with her; it's great.

My son is three and loves racing his cars on this track. Every new car goes on it immediately. So, I would ask "Does your child like to run his own races?" "Does your child like watching the loser get flung off the track?" I would potentially get this as a gift for an 8 year old, if they like Hot Wheels/ Matchbox cars. Race Grooves does Hot Wheels videos and here is his video review of this toy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GocrGNRqfeg - I am not related to Race Grooves - merely a fan of his Hot Wheels Youtube videos as is my 3 year old - Also, it hooks up with standard orange tracks so we added some pieces for a longer run for the winner as well as we built a Megablock tunnel for the winner to run through My son is three and loves racing his cars on this track.

I bought it for my granddaughter when she was 1. That was a little too early, but by 1 1/2 it was fine. She will be able to use it until she is 4 or 5. Caution... the wheels fell off at the very beginning. We thought we corrected the problem, but to this day, 1 year later the purple wheels will not stay on. If you have this problem - send it back instead of trying to fix it. I think the product is a good one, we just got a bad one. Should have sent it back.

This one would be great for him, my son was 3 when I bought it and strong/athletic. However, my neighbor has one where the front wheel actually turns & it's way easier for the kids to maneuver. I kinda wish I had that one, but my son still loves his, too

I would advise not to give this to any child under three years old. Unless the 2 year old you are asking for is as large as a three year old and as mature as a three year old I would wait. It is a fantastic toy for my three year old grandson who mastered the steering in two days and is only allowed to drive in the low gear until he gains a bit more common sense...he doesn't need more speed yet. I hope this helps you.

Hi Susie, I personally thought this was a great bike for my grandson who was five at the time of purchase. Remember it's a glide and does not have wheels. My grandson loved the bike but preferred the wheels. It is an EXCELLENT 1st bike for little guys. If you have not watched the video please do so. It is great for teaching balance and can not me any easier to put together, 5min. Best of wishes with your decision. Enjoy! Donna KDonna T. Kasinak answered on January 25, 2013

Actually I bought it for our 6 yr olds and they were too young. The older kids spent more time on it. so I would think 9 yrs olds would be right. It was not quite the hit I thought it would be. Better was the electric scooters. Hope that helps.

I bought it for my three old grandson. He was fine with thus item. He is mature & does not put things in his mouth. The wheels may come off I guessif pulled.

I bought them for my twin 5yr olds and they both love it. It really glides easily and fast. I estimate that they will both be using it until age 6 before being comfortable enough for the 2-wheel version.

Hi Maria, I purchased the mini kick for my (then) 3 year old. He's now 7 and his little brother is 2 years old and they both use the scooters quite frequently. We had ours for 4 years and it has been used A LOT. After constant use the brake finally broke off last year but my kids just step on the wheel and it still stops just as fast.
