Love this balance bike
We love this bike. I saw a kid racing around the playground on this one and immediately pulled out my phone to figure out what it was... I then went to several stores on the way home to get one for my little guy and I found a different brand. My little guy refused to ride it because the way the seat was adjustable and we had it on the lowest setting, he kept hitting his leg on the stand part. Also, the bike body was straight from the bars to the seat and he couldn't comfortable stand in front of the seat. I REALLY wanted him to like and use a balance bike so he could ride along side me while I walked or jogged so I was disappointed. I then got on amazon and looked and looked until I finally found this one. Which is the same one the original kid at the park was riding. My little guy LOVES this. We have biked everyday and my Instagram feed is just pics of him biking beautiful trails in this fall weather. So glad I ordered this one! For reference my little guy is a little over 2.5 years old. We have been using this about 2 weeks and he has gained so much more confidence each time and is now starting to pick his feet up and balance. We are averaging about 1.5 miles a day.

Height is perfect!!!!
We bought this for our daughters second birthday. We were nervous about the height since she’s a shrimp but it’s perfect! The seat height is adjustable, and the bike itself is light enough that she can lift the bike and get on it, and turn without much trouble (she’s learning) My husband used to ride professionally and he was surprised it was such great quality. This is the best type of bike for little ones to learn on! She loves this thing!

Perfect for any toddler
We absolutely LOVE it!! The adjustable height makes it perfect for either my 2yr old or my 4yr old to ride around on. It's built very sturdy, my youngest is a walking disaster and even she can't do any damage to this thing. The metal parts are solid enough to not bend or dent, and the plastic is thick enough it's virtually impossible to break. Despite the durability, it's also lightweight. Littlest has tipped it a couple times (don't worry, with helmet and pads on) and it doesn't cause any injuries from the bike falling onto legs.It was pretty easy to put together, with one exception...and this is not called out anywhere on the instructions, or pictured, so it wasn't blatantly obvious to us...TAKE THE BLACK PLASTIC OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE HANDLEBARS!!! It's not needed, just a protective shield for the metal point. All the directions said was to slide the handlebars into the base, no picture of the bottom of the handlebars, and it took us an embarrassingly long time to figure it out, we kept trying to make it fit as-is.

Love love love!
We are so happy we got this bike for our 3 year old! We were looking at strider bikes, but they were so expensive especially for someone so little. I'm so glad we went with this brand instead. I have no complaints, and I love how light it is. My little guy can lift it on his own which helps him maneuver it easily, and it was super easy to put together. I love the foam tires, I don't have to worry about flats and they also give him the cushion he needs when he goes over bumps. He looks forward to riding it now from the moment he wakes up until he goes to bed. Definitely a good buy!

Excellent balance bike for the price!
This bike is perfect. It's SLIGHTLY too big for our almost 22 month old (about 36" tall) but we put the seat and handle bars on the lowest level and it works like a charm. She'll grow into it in no time. It's super simple to put together, sturdy, and wheels are solid. I recommend. I also recommend buying it from this seller. There is a seller on Amazon who is selling it lower but is a scammer - the bike never ships. Buy it from here if you want it quick!

The best gift ever for my 2 yr old!
My son just got this for his second birthday and has been riding it around the baseball fields daily since the day he got it. Took zero time to pick up the concept and it fits him perfectly. Every parent who's seen it has said they wish they had one for their kids when they were little!

The Best Balance Bike
I bought a Smart Gear Balance Bike for my first kid when he was one. He was almost three before he was tall enough to use it, and he is a tall kid. We bought this Banana Bike for my second baby this week. He is 15 months old and he can tippy-toe it just fine. He is in love. What is more, the three year loves this Banana Bike so much more than his Smart Gear bike.The seat is lower on this bike and the handles wider so a kid has more control and their center of gravity is low and in a logical place. The three year old is so much more brave and in control of this bike then the bike he has been riding for a year.The frame is metal, the wheels are solid so it will stand up to the basic use so much better than the Smart Gear bike we have, that is already falling apart. We paid more for the Smart Gear bike but, plan on getting rid of it and getting another of these instead.

awesome little bikes!!
These are great bikes, we bought 3 so far! Great quality, all steel construction, hard rubber tires so no worries about flats, easy adjustable seats, and the price point is cheaper than other balance bikes. We have kids as young as 2 and as old as 5 riding them at our daycare.

Really impressed
I got this for my whirlwind of a 2 year old on his birthday and am really impressed. It was easily assembled and lightweight, important as he can pick it up himself when he falls off. It is easy for him to manoeuvre and despite being on the 9th centile for height, can reach the floor when on the lowest setting. He has been on it twice now and already mastered it. My friends had all told me he "needed" a certain yummy mummy £300+ balance bike by a popular girls name in order to learn quickly but totally not the case - this is a great bike at a great cost and would not hesitate in recommending.

Ok for younger children.
This is a well made bike and of good quality but it's no good for a 4 year old. My son got this for his birthday and is of average height but he can only just use it on the highest setting. I'd definitely recommend this for younger children but for older ones I'd try something else.

Best balance bike for young toddler!!
I was a little apprahensive thinking whether this was worth the money compared to a cheap bike. The answer was yes , it is worth every penny!! We bought this for our 2 year old and were worried wether it would be small enough for him to ride and it was perfect.The seat can go so low and he could climb on it really easily. The bike is SO LIGHTWEIGHT!! It’s incredible , it’s so well made my son even at 2 years old loved it. We had a cheap bike for our other son and he struggled because it was so heavy however this Banana bike is lightweight and really well made and strong.Putting it together was a breeze and the seat is really easily adjusted. I was worried about the foam tires being slippery but we have used it in wet a lot and had no issues. My only gripe is that I wish we bought this bike for me eldest when he was younger!!

You get what you pay for
My daughter loves her new bike and at 2 years old, has no complaints. When we were assembling the bike however we realised that one of the tyres (they’re the plastic formed tyres rather than a rubber one) was mishapen. Luckily it hasn’t seemed to affect it as she’s riding so I didn’t contact the company. The bike feels a little rushed in manufacturing, there are a few minor finishing faults, like things not lining up quite right, but overall for the money it’s a stable, sturdy bike.

My 20month old loves it.
My 20month old loves this (as does my 6 year old, though she's too big for it.) His balance on it has already improved lots in the last month.Arrived quickly, very quick and easy to assemble. Easy to clean tyres.My only quibbles about it are that the nuts on both wheels stick out more than i expected ... they are rounded and stick out about an inch, rather than flat and sticking out quarter of an inch. Luckily is above the Achilles height, but painful if he scrapes you nonetheless.Other thing is that the steering could go round and round endlessly. I assumed it wouldn't reach 180°. Maybe all balance bikes are like that??? Consequently it tips over when he oversteers, and he often rides with the handlebars the other way round, which i think makes him fall more.That said, it's a good product, would buy again and would recommend.

Looks good, but watch the quality.
Bought this bike a month ago and had it in storage until my little boy's birthday. Really easy to put together however I noticed the paint coming away in my hand around the forks. This was with no use what so ever, however it appears that the paint hasn't bonded, and it's rusted underneath...The fork bearings feel solid and the rest of the bike looks well made. The boy loves it and I guess time will tell on sturdiness, but certainly not the cheapest out there...

Dangerously heavy. Do not buy.
Do not buy this bike. For the price it is ridiculously heavy. I’m a tall woman and I struggle to lift it! When ridden it pulls over at any given chance. We’ve had it for 6 months and it’s ruined my sons confidence. I have a very strong and physically capable 3yo (who is in age 5-6 clothes) and he struggles with the weight of this bike. When he does fall of it the weight of it on top of him causes more harm than the fall. For the money there are much better bikes out there. We are replacing this before he’s put off completely or badly hurt.

Brilliant Balance Bike
The bike itself is absolutely fantastic, my 2 year old son is fairly small for his age but this fits him perfectly and he can grow with it!Very sturdy frame, however, extremely lightweight too (A ⭐️ )Fast delivery and very well packaged.Shame Amazon let the side down by just dumping it on my door step while I was out, in full view of every single person in my Road!!

Excellent quality at a great price!
We have just bought this for our 2 year old & assembled it tonight! I’m writing this review a bit prematurely as he won’t see it until the morning but so far I’m very impressed!The parts arrived well packed & protected! The finish on the frame & forks is excellent (we went green)! The seat seems high quality & looks very comfortable!It assembled pretty easily with clear instructions & not many parts to have to fit! I personally like the idea of puncture proof tyres at this stage but I appreciate this will be a harder ride! He can enjoy that when he gets a bit older & gets a pedal bike...!After assembly I put force on the handle bars & seat & it felt very sturdy! A nice, smooth steering action & good handle bar grips!And that’s all I can tell you so far but I’d be amazed if it didn’t do its job & I know my little boy is going to be thrilled to bits come 8am tomorrow...!

Disappointing
When I started to put the bike together, the handle bars did not fit in to the body of the bike. I noticed there was a quite a big notch of metal that was stopping them from going in, I had to file this down which took a while. When we finally got them in my partner noticed in addition to this that the screw was snapped therefore it wouldn’t knit together when tightening the handlebars in place. This was for my son for Xmas, really disappointed as handlebars are not stable.

Very light
Initial impressions are this is superb for the money. Very easy to assemble. Surprisingly light, it's significantly lighter than my boys smaller Frog Tadpole Mini, which is much smaller.Would advise putting a bit of grease on the seat post as it's a tight fit, and will stop it getting stuck. Longevity untested but suspect it'll easily last until it's been outgrown.Tyres are solid Eva type foam, so likely to be less grippy in the wet than normal rubber on corners, but as it's a learner bike they're unlikely to be leaning it right over on fast corners.You can tell the quality isn't quite up there with the big expensive brands, but definitely surpasses it's price.Highly recommended.

Buy this bike!!!
As a Mum if 3 boys I have done my research on balance bikes over the years and this one has been by far our best purchase. I managed to put it together easily myself, the instructions are very clear. The bike itself is great. The wheels are more foam grip wheels than tyres but they’re great quality and certainly fit for purpose on a toddler bike. My son is 3 and could ride it quickly so it would be suitable for a slightly younger child but I’m happy to see it has room for him to grow too. My favourite part of this bike is it’s weight. It is featherlight! This is great as my son can pick it back up and get back on without help and it’s also great as if he tires of cycling it isn’t at all heavy to carry. Wish I’d found it earlier for my other boys!

Two year old grandson loves this bike. He couldn't ...
Two year old grandson loves this bike. He couldn't wait to get on it and was off straightaway and his balance is improving every time he uses it.

Excellent for the price
Bought as a birthday present for my nephew. Seems like a great bike for the money. Not too heavy and nicely balanced. Just make sure to keep it stored out of the rain.I had to do some sorting out of the build my sister had done, but i think this says more about her lack of bike building skill than difficulty assembling the bike.Size wise, I think he's about average height for his age and he just fits it.Hopefully it stands the test of time as in a year my son will be using it

Fantastic
I bought this for my son, he’s 19 months old but fairly tall for his age and he’s loves it. Taken him a few attempts to find his feet with it but it’s been a great buy, it was super easy to assemble, it’s lightweight but very sturdy and the materials do not feel cheap.The colour really is gorgeous, suits my boy and as he gets bigger the bike can be adjusted to suit his height so it will last him a while.All in all a top product for a good price, well done the manufacturers as I feel they have really taken into consideration the customer and quality.
