5 out of 5 stars sturdy walker   July 28, 2007

12 out of 12 found this review helpful

I just bought this walker after reviewing several others from LeapFrog, redflyer, haba, etc. I think this one is perfect for those that start pulling themselves up to standing, furniture side walking, etc.

Pros I noticed thus far:
1) SUPER easy to assemble, no small parts, it only requires 2 AA batteries.
2) Feels very STURDY and my 9 mos old has not been able to flip it despite all his tricks.
3) the BREAK feature is a good thought, yet it will still move but with added resistance. Still better than some others without this feature that will zoom through the floor and guarantee a scary fall for a young baby.
4) the activities in front are thus far entertaining to my 9 mos old.

overall I feel it was a good buy.



3 out of 5 stars Okay, Not Great; Would Not Buy Again   October 8, 2007

I bought this walker online because it was a very popular item. And though it's nice, I wish I had looked at other ones.

The Pros:
1. The activity center on the front was very entertaining for my daughter. Prior to walking, she really enjoyed playing with the front of the walker. Now that she is more comfortable using the walker to walk, it's not as interesting.
2. It's got cheerful music and sound effects that reward play and use of the walker. My daughter is 11 months old, and is starting to walk. The use of this walker has aided her in learning to do so.
3. Assembly is VERY easy. I mean, we're talking idiot-proof.

The Cons:
1. It tips over very easily! If something gets caught under the front, the walker tips over. Sometimes it tips over just because my daughter gets a bit rambunctious using it! She is petite for her age, so her size is not a factor.
2. There are brakes on the back wheels that are useless. They add a slight bit of resistance on the carpet, but otherwise, the walker still goes forward. On hard floors, the brakes, if on, make the walker less stable.
3. Over-priced. There are plenty of other walkers that convert to ride-on toys for comparable costs or even less.

Overall, it's not a bad toy, and it does assist in helping a child learn to walk. However, because it tips forward so easily, I do not feel safe allowing my daughter to use it, unless I am RIGHT behind her. It's worth looking into other walkers, for the cost.



5 out of 5 stars Very sturdy. Does not tip over.   January 15, 2007

This product is engaging and safe. It is far better than the other walk along toys I have purchased.


3 out of 5 stars Tips Forward Easily, Not Worth the Money   September 14, 2007

3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I bought this walker online without actually seeing it first. I would not choose this one again.

Pros:
1. Very easy to assemble. We're talking idiot-proof.
2. The activity center is a lot of fun for my 10-month-old. There are fun songs and lights that reward her for placing the balls and shapes in the right places.
3. The walker is difficult to tip backwards when your child is pulling up on it. The bulk of the weight is in the front of the toy, so it provides a good counter-balance. However, this weight distribution leads to other problems (see Cons).

Cons:
1. Tips forward too easily. I don't know how the parents in the other reviews haven't had theirs tip over. My daughter is petite, so her size is not the cause. It tips over when something gets caught in front of it, and when my daughter gets a bit rambunctious and goes a little fast. She has fallen forward holding onto it numerous times. I won't let her use it without me right behind her.
2. The brakes are useless. The walker still moves forward, with a little resistance--but only on carpet. If you have wooden floors or linoleum in the kitchen, this toy is too unsafe. On these types of flooring, it seems safer to have the brakes off.
3. For what you get, this toy is over-priced. There are others out there that convert to ride-along toys for the same price of less.

Overall, this toy is "okay" and my daughter enjoys it, but I would not recommend it as a first choice. I wish I had done more shopping around and gotten a sturdier walker with a better value.

I bought the Chicco activity walker after being disappointed with the Fisher Price walker to wagon. The Chicco walker is great! My 12 month old has used it for a month, and she can pull herself up and walk with it by herself without it tipping over or going too fast. The design is sturdy, and there is plenty of room for her feet. She loves the toys on the front and sides, and the music is cheerful and not too loud.
