as i could remember the pony came with screws to attach the rockers to pony legs

Ours came with screws and us screwed into the base. It does not come off of the plastic rockers.

I bought mine as a gift for my niece last month and it came fully assembled with no tags or instructions/box...it seems sturdy enough for her and she's 22 pounds...nothing was loose or needed anything tightened...I was very happy with the quality of the item.

Mine came with 4 screws. Try contacting amazon about your issue or the manufacture. Good luck!

What helped me was looking at the image. I don't remember it coming with instructions? I'm sorry but it was awhile ago that I assembled this cupcake holder and I just tried to see if there was any information online about how to assemble. No luck. My best suggestion would be to look at the image and start from there. I'm sorry this wasn't more help! I hope you figure this out :-)

Hi Katie! My husband had the same issue and tried several screwdrivers to screw them in as much as they would go, but he could only get them to screw about half way in. While not ideal, the top part felt very sturdy even with half of the screw in each pole. He covered those screws with the small, circular foam piece for that section and then put the netting over top of that, and it has held up very well to my kids crazy bouncing. I wish the screw holes were a bit bigger so that those screws actually could fit into them. We were afraid to try and drill bigger holes for fear then they would be too wide and the screws would not hold at all. If you do find a good solution, please share!! =)

The horses I bought were for my grandson who loves horses. He plays with them all the time. I think the adult horses are probably the same size as the Barbie horses, but I don't really know. The only bad thing that has happened is one of the tails disappeared...I think it was accidently pushed in. He is two. The horses, saddles, and reins are very realistic. I was not aware that Barbie rode these days.

Yes, it's just a piece that screws on. You could easily leave off the red arch and the purple posts it rests on, and not compromise the toy. I have a 1 year old and a 3 and 5 year old. I like having the arch because it helps keep my older kids out when my youngest wants to be in there.

No this horse does not have good bounce at all and the springs are stiff. Also the sound comes when you rock it but my grandson can't rock it long and the sound you barely can hear it , not at all loud enough it. I would not recommend this horse at all. We purchased it at christmas time for our two year old grandson we made a mistake and set it up already assembled for christmas and threw away the box ,i wish i would have kept the box to return it back . I hate it , Only one thing good to say it is a pretty horse. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Did you put Barbie in front of the horse and hold down the mane on top of the horses head until he starts moving? That has worked for us every time. Otherwise do you need new batteries?

I just put my granddaughter's together and the piece you are talking about doesn't go all the way in, just make sure it feels tight. once you put the steering on and tighten it, it holds together well. also the front little wheel doesn't touch the ground. Hope this helps!

Well I own the horse and it's a very high-quality Rockinghorse I like it a lot would very much recommend it I guess I haven't looked to see if the mane comes off I don't believe it does I think that it is attached. But don't let that discourage you from purchasing at it is a very nice Rockinghorse in my opinion

The pony can be pulled forward. It will not move backwards. I believe that is a safety feature so that it can't go backwards with the child on it. The pony's head can be turned to control forward movement.

Yes, it does need to be mounted to some kind of deck (we drilled into our concrete pool surround). Pay close attention to the size details before ordering, because it was MUCH smaller than we anticipated!! Perfect slide for kids up to eight years old, but I would definitely not get it for anyone older than that! You don't have to worry about kids falling off of the steps, but it does still seem tipsy enough to fall over if it is not mounted down. The water "spout" feature that turns it into a waterslide when connected is a must-have feature, since it is hard for the kids to "slide" off of it/around the corner without a (more enhanced) slippery surface.

Absolutely not. The horses that are in this set are only 2-3 inches tall and much, much thinner than My Little Ponies. These horses are more realistic and proportionately sized. They fit in the stable slots exactly. Just fyi--the stable is not high quality and breaks very easily. Keep wood glue handy. I will say it is a favorite toy for my daughter though.

You would receive a Little pony, which personally I think is better as a decoration than to play with it. Hope this helps

My granddaughter is also small for her age and she loves it. I got it for her 1st b-day. I know we were holding her for about the first 3 times on it for balance but she wanted to do alone after that. She also tries to pinch the ears for the music. The horse is at my sons in another state. The saddle is high in the back and with the foot rests on the sides and the handles she should be ok. I think there was a piece you could attach to the saddle and you would put her through that circle and then she would sit on the saddle. We didn't use it though.....

I am sorry that I can['t answer your question regarding My Little Pony. I ordered it for my grand daughter and didn['t really look at it. However, as far as I know, she was happy.

Just contact Hasbro ASAP - this is a defect in the product, and they will replace it. It's a little gross as you have to decapitate it and send back the head, they then send you a whole new pony. Our new pony worked just fine, still does, 2 years later. The grinding clicking ones are just defective, that's all.

Wood screws are included. Upon final assembly as per the included instructions, this rocking horse is solid as a rock. The pieces assembled with the wood screws are counter sunk and keep the screw heads from the child. There is no need for glue in the initial assembly.
