Step2 Push Around Buggy Ride On Toddler Push Car, Red – Ride On Toy with Included Safety Belt, Comfortable Handle, Realistic Wheel for Pretend Play – Push Toy Makes a Great Stroller Alternative

My daughter like this very much

Easy to assemble, cute, has a front storage compartment. My daughter loves it! We even added stickers!

I purchased the Step2 Push Around Buggy in Pink as a birthday present for my 1 year old niece. But I have the nearly identical Step2 buggy in red for my 15 month old son. This buggy quickly became a household favorite for short to medium range walks around our neighborhood and parks. A few problems keep it from being an automatic recommendation. -------------------- ASSEMBLY: Assembling the Step2 buggy is a bit more involved than you may initially be thinking. Youll need at a minimum a hammer and Phillips screwdriver. Preferably youll want to have a wooden block or something similar to assist in getting the locking wheel-nuts on. The long handle secures via a long screw and lug-nut. Youll ideally have a Phillips screwdriver and pair of pliers to make that job easier. The last job is applying the sticker-decals to the frame of the buggy. All in all assembly isnt too bad; my installation was straightforward without any issues. -------------------- USE: First, I have to say that my son absolutely loves this buggy. The sides are open allowing him to reach out and touch flower and things on our walks/adventures. He loves the horn on the steering wheel and the ability to look around more freely than in our stroller. My feelings on the product are a bit more mixed. There are a few issues that need to be addressed by the manufacturer. First, the well-documented steering column issues. The steering column secures under the hood with a plastic locking fasteners (built into the steering column) onto a plastic bracket that is fitted under the front hood. I had no issue with my sons Step2 buggy until after a few months of use. Now the steering wheel keeps popping off and the locking fasteners are worn. That means that the steering wheel assembly completely comes off if he pulls on it. That does not impact the performance of the buggy as the steering wheel is only for entertainment (i.e. doesnt control the front wheels). Unfortunately the buggy I gifted to my niece has problems with the steering columns out of the box. Whenever Ive attempted to snap the steering column to the plastic bracket the locking fasteners simply pop loose. Another aspect that Im not a big fan of is the loud and somewhat jarring ride this buggy offers. This is due to two factors; the hard plastic wheels and the fact that this buggy offers no type of suspension to soften the ride. If youre luck enough to have a smooth flat surface then the ride on this buggy will be just fine. My neighborhood is a bit older and has a lot of bumps on sidewalks and streets. Because of that I tend to limit the walks I take my son on or avoid certain routes altogether. Lastly, transportation can be a bit of an issue. This is primarily due to the fact that the handle is not adjustable in any way. This makes the buggy simply too tall to fit in my wifes SUV. The handle is easy enough to remove... with tools, however, not exactly convenient. -------------------- THE GOOD: (+) Kids love it! The Step2 is definitely my sons favored mode of transportation. (+) Incredibly easy to push around thanks to the handle. My wife (54) and I (510) both find the handle is in the right spot for pushing the buggy (and our son) around. (+) Seat belt is included. Keeps our little guy in the buggy. -------------------- WHAT COULD BE BETTER: (-) The steering column needs to be redesigned. The Amazon product page mentions this product is celebrating its 10th anniversary; theres no reason this component should be so problematic at this point. (-) The ride can be extremely rough and jarring. Hard plastic wheels and no type of shock absorption are present. (-) Transportation can be tricky because of the tall, nonadjustable handle. -------------------- CONCLUSION: The Step2 buggy is definitely a kid favorite, but persistent problems with the steering column, and inconvenient handle keep this from being a favorite with parents. Recommended with caveats.

My toddler loves her buggy! The only thing I dont like is the plastic wheels because its loud when you stroll. Other than that its pretty sturdy and easy to assemble. The first time it was sent they forgot to include the handle which is an important part of the buggy! They sent a replacement and everything was good.

Granddaughter loved it

Love this buggy everytime I take my granddaughter out she wants to ride in her love bug

Cute and sturdy if you can get the instructions to match the parts. Some parts were missing.

I bought it for my toddler, she doesn’t like stroller or tricycle so I was hoping she would like this car so we can go for walks but unfortunately this car has ver little leg room. Had to return. Looks very cute though.

Buen espacio entre piernas y la parte donde están sentados los niños , mi bb tiene 7 meses y le ha encantado , y es seguro porque tiene su cinturón para que no se deslicen

Baby sister adores it. I am not a handy person but even I could assemble this together
