Hard to get together but son loves it March 9, 2010 T. Weikel (Zion Grove, PA United States) My husband put this car together for our little boy who was anxious to get in it and see what it can do well after about 45 minutes of hammering and cuting to get the parts to fit right we found out that we had two left axles so no big deal just called the company and got the right one in about three days. In the meantime we just put the left one on as the little guy wanted to go for a ride he enjoyed it and has used it ever since we got it..... Overall the car is great but you will need alot of strenght and patience to put it together as that was a nightmare the instruction sheet was horrible. But gave it 5 stars because my little guy loves it
If only my son didn't like this... March 5, 2010 A. Boyd (Tucson) There is nothing that quite compares to the laughter of a child... especially when that child is laughing AT you, while you slave away for more than 2 hours trying to get this impossible beast of a toy put together. Everyone who has complained about the instructions being worthless has been correct. I think a list is in order here:
1. Pieces not labeled
2. Damn near impossible to assemble. Getting the yellow parts into the car was practically a miracle... I'm still not sure how I managed it.
3. There are exposed screws in the 'cup holder'
4. There is no seat belt.
5. The door lock has an exposed screw...and it doesn't do much to lock the door.
6. The handle is pretty useless as a handle.
7. This car is not meant for rough desert terrain... if you live close to a basketball or tennis court, I can see the car functioning well for you, but I'm not sure how steering will work on dirt.
8. Those little wheels aren't going to last on dirt.
Two things that were specific to the car I purchased -
1. the eyes were broken
2. The 'little tikes' logo on the back yellow things was upside down. There is only one way to assemble these parts...
So why is this beast not a pile of melted goo in my front yard?! My kid loves it. He REALLY loves it.
A nightmare to assemble, but very sturdy, and a huge hit! February 21, 2010 Melissa Ott (Oak Harbor, WA) I see I'm not the only one who had a hard time assembling this thing! My daughter couldn't wait for me to get it out of the box and assemble it the second it arrived. So, I pulled it out of the box and very quickly figured out it was going to take a lot of time and concentration to get the stupid thing put together. I had to make my daughter go down for her nap and continue working on it. It took me two solid hours to put together! The instructions are very poorly illustrated and difficult to understand. More than once, I thought I'd assembled the wheels incorrectly and tried to remedy the issue by taking them apart. I quickly discovered that once you hammer the bolt on that holds the wheels together, they don't come off . . . even with a sledgehammer, crowbar, whatever! So, that speaks to the durability. It definitely held up to my efforts at assembly without so much as a scratch! That said, make sure you understand the instructions and are 100% sure you are doing it correctly before you proceed. Also, make sure you follow the instructions exactly in order, even if you think your way makes more sense (such as putting the steering wheel on before attaching the roof). You will wind up having to take apart what you did before in order to assemble some other aspect of the car. Also, while the roof supports were difficult to get into their slots, I found the most difficult part of assembling the car to be screwing the screws into their allotted indentations. That's right. You don't even get pre-drilled holes to screw the screws into. Just a slight indentation in the plastic indicating that's where it's supposed to go. It takes quite a bit of elbow grease to get those screws in. I managed to eventually get the top screws in. My hand ached like crazy, I had banged up knuckles from the effort, and one of the screws went in a bit cockeyed, but at least they were in! The bottom screws were a different story. You have to go in from inside the cup holders. With the length of the screws and the length of the screw driver, it is impossible to get the screws in straight or provide enough leverage/pressure to actually puncture the plastic and get the screw in there. I finally had to give up and just wait a couple of days until my husband could do it. In the meantime, my daughter drove around with the screws just hanging out in the cup holder and the back roof supports frequently pulling out of their slots.
Even with the pain of assembly, and the quite obvious "mistakes" where the car looks a little funny due to my imperfect assembly (the best I could do!), my daughter is absolutely enamored with her new toy. It has made the biggest hit by far that any toy has ever made in her two years of life. I have had a hard time getting her to come out of the thing! She's been sitting in it to watch movies, driving it all over the house, eating in it, attempting to take it on walks, and even insisted on sleeping with it right beside her the first night she had it. It's worth all the hard work to see her enjoying the toy so much. But I would definitely not give it anything more than three stars after the nightmare my husband and I went through in trying to put the thing together!
Assembly gets a bad rap! Use the video!! February 16, 2010 L. Goldberg (Austin, TX) We just received this adorable little car for our baby's 1st birthday. We were nervous to embark on putting it together after reading all of the horror stories. My husband and I are not the most handy but we really had a fairly easy time putting the car together. I STRONGLY recommend using the assembly video online instead of the paper instructions. I watched it once before we started and then watched/paused as we went along step by step. We only had a little trouble screwing on the roof--be sure to start the screws early as advised by a 'tip' in the video. Really helps to use a drill or electric screwdriver for this part. Another little tip from me: I took all the small parts and laid them out in the box they came in and used a sharpie to label the part's letter--made it easy to grab the one you needed as you go. Othwerise, our baby is LOVING his new car and we are very pleased with our purchase.
EXTREMELY DIFFICULT ASSEMBLY!!! January 20, 2010 k. miller (usa) This car is great and my toddler loves it, however, we thought about chucking it into the garbage can while putting it together. The directions on paper were horrible. The illustrations of what the parts looked like were completely inaccurate. We could not get the pieces to fit together properly, and the wheels were a total pain to put on the car's frame.
Our little girl is 20 months and loves the car and plays in it frequently, but it is a little hard for her to move with her feet. There is an option to place a plastic floor board in the car if you would rather just push your child instead of letting them push themselves.
