Favorite Toy Sep 09, 2004
By Katherine Maddox
"katebeth"
Highly recommended, and here's why:
My son got this wagon for his first birthday. He could already walk, but it is still has become one of his very favorite toys. From day one he has been practicing climbing in and out of it (with the sides up, but he's tall). Since the wheels don't turn super-easily, I don't have to worry about it sliding out from under him while he does it (especially on carpet).
Once my son is sitting inside, he sits down and we wheel him around the house (the faster the better). When little friends come over, they also take turns pushing each other. This is very cute and apparently so fun that they often all try to climb in at once (we've fit up to a large 18-month-old in the basket, but that's about its limit). Usually, at least once a day, I find him sitting in the walker waiting to be pushed in circles around the house. My son also pushes stuffed animals around, but the corners are hard to turn, so I do have to follow him.
This is also a very sturdy toy; we will be able to pass it down to my son's children. Because toddlers can also ride in it, this is the very best walker I've seen and my son certainly loves it. If you do push your child around in it, be prepared to do it a lot (he or she will love it). And, since the handle is quite low (it's built for a toddler, after all), it's hard on an adult's back.

High quality, but a little hard to maneuver May 12, 2004
PROS: - high-quality, sturdy construction - wooden "sides" are removable, for more versatility - great for learning walkers (wheels offer slight resistance) - good for indoor or outdoor play - little ones can sit in it, if one or two sides are removed - easy to keep it moving in a straight lineCONS: - a little hard to maneuver around turns (none of the wheels "turn" to the left or right)

Wonderful concept---watch for choking hazard! Nov 04, 2004
By Kristina Corrado My son received this wagon for his 1st birthday; he played with it constantly---mostly on a carpeted floor. It certainly helped him learn to walk---the resistance feature was my primary attraction. However, after 8 days of normal play, the tip of one of the resistance pegs (the device that "pushes back" and prevents the wagon from flying out from under them) broke off---my son found it before we did and had it in his mouth---it was a piece 1 cm in length and .4 cm in width---PERFECT for little mouths! The very next day the tip of the other resistance peg broke off!! I have been in touch with Radio Flyer and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. There has been no resolution yet, although Radio Flyer is suggesting I had an isolated defect (I'd be more likely to believe this if only ONE of the pegs had broken--but both?!). The resistance pegs are crafted from hard plastic that can (did) become brittle; it seems to me that a hard rubber composition would have been a safer alternative. I don't expect toys to last forever, but I do expect that they won't present a choking hazard. This wagon is recommended for children ages 1-4. Watch your little ones carefully when they play with this wagon!!!!!

This walker is helping our 8 month old twin boys to learn to walk. Its very safe and very cute...
* It only goes straight, perfect for a beginner
* Large basket, we use it to hold peek-a-blocks usually, or it can hold my twins!
* Small and low to the ground, wont tip over
* Very durable, nothings breaking this wagon!
* The wooden slats come off so my kids can ride in it
* It wont tip over
* If its on hardwood, it doesnt ruin the floors
* Rolls well on carpet too
Its just a cute and great walker for those first few steps, my twins love this one just as much as the Gobble n' go hippo, great toy...
