Which is better, this one or Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer and Stroll Trike? I have a 27 month old toddler but the price is almost same.

I never owned the Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer and Stroll Trike, but from looking at it as compared to the 4-in-1 it looks like the differences are the 4-in-1 has a 3 point harness and removable wrap around tray. It all depends on how much control you feel your toddler has sitting upright and holding on. If you feel your toddler has already passed the stage where they would have any use for that than you could really choose either, it's just your preference. If it were me and I knew I was planning on having another child than I would get the 4 in 1, but as I said before if your toddler has complete control of his upper body sitting in the seat then it is really just which ever you prefer. It is a really solid trike and I have been very happy with it.

I prefer the 4 wheel. It is more stable and easier to push. Yes, we love our animals!!! Ha! I think you will like this model. Just took my 3 for a long walk a few minutes ago.

I would say stick with the mini, I think the maxi will be too much to manage (the frame/handlebars and running board are much larger). My kids are also tall and they rode the mini until at least age 5.

My 13-month old is able to sit on it, buckled in, but that's about it. But I have to say I'm not a big fan of this bike. There's too much give when you lick the steering wheel for the child. You have to overcompensate steering...it's not very responsive. Fine as a trike but handle is not great for parents.

Yes, I would say o.k. We were pleased with it for our toddler as she is now walking at 13 months. So she wasn't in the walker very long. It was safe, practical for her and entertaining and a reasonable cost.

My older son has a regular Razor kick scooter. I wanted to start my toddler on an easier beginner scooter. I chose radio flyer based on the reviews and how it looked. Re: razor jr., radio flyer does not fold up, and it appears to be wider (more standing room). Otherwise, I have not tried the Razor jr., and am only familiar with the regular razor. If it helps, we are very happy with the radio flyer scooter for our 2-year old; and my 6-year old even likes it.

Yeah, the wheels are pretty good; the squeak may bother you. Here is what I found, if you look the pedals - meaning that your kid cant/wont pedal - it doesnt squeak. So your trike is not an annoyance to you and you are not an annoyance to the other pedestrians. If you, on the other hand, *not* lock the wheel - which is definitely more fun for the older kids, once they figure out the pedaling - it (the squeak) can become really unbearable. Having said that, your kid may not mind it as much as you do, at least thats the case with mine.Anyways, back to the wheels, they seem to be well made. It's been almost an year and they have served pretty well for us, no issues. Yeah, the wheels are pretty good; the squeak may bother you.

I bought it for a 3-year-old last summer! I think a step before learning to ride bicycles. Kids get so many mobility toys so quickly these days so I think 3/4 years old makes sense. I went for pedal and not with motor because I also believe kids should be using their legs to power toys and not get lazy with more expensive electric tractors etc

I am also wondering which one to buy for my 19 month old little girl.There's only a $10 price difference. I want to know which one she will enjoy the most and actually use.

recaro proride is better than britax. it's way stable and sturdier feeling than britax. i have no problem with recaro proride convertible. but if you want something that would be user later after your lil. one is more than 2 yo then go with britax frontier 85 because after 2 yo your lo will want a cup holder and snack slot. trust me on this part. i have 3 recaro proride, 1 recaro prosport, 2 britax boulevard, 1 britax marathon, and lastly britax frontier 85. i buy them as my lo grows.

In my opinion this would probably be better since there are no pedals to 'reach' --- my grandson usually opts for this one (we recently got him the trike) but he doesn't seem to like to work the pedals. Good luck I hope this helps.

My 2 year old son likes the Razor scooter. I don't know what the Radio Flyer one looks like, but I will say that the only problem with the Razor is that the two wheels are in the back- myson catches his heels on them from kicking. If the Radio Flyer has the two wheels in front, I suggest that one instead. Hope this helps.

I would advise getting the regular tricycle. I bought this one for my son when he was two and he outgrew it within just a couple months. He was small for his age too.

Absolutely this tricycle would be awesome. I made this selection for my then 3yr grandson for his birthday. Although he has since move on to a bike with training wheels...he still uses this trike also. It looks sharp and has all the bells and whistles. Excellent choice.

It's a modern version of the classic radio flyer wagon - with a seat and belt. I bought it for my grand daughter's first birthday. My son pulls her around in it and she loves it. She's now 18 months old. A 3-4 year old will probably love it.

Hi KristinWho is this for? I ask because I am 43 and I have 2 kids, 13 and 10. I bought myself a Traxxas Rustler and love it. Then bought 2 more Rusters off eBay with the velineon motors, much faster and last longer. I bought a Traxxas Bandit for my youngest since its the cheapest and doesn't go too fast. I love them all but they do break and have to be repaired. Parts are very cheap and the repairs are fairly simple.

Our tall 3 year old can just barely reach the pedals. He is not yet able to actually pedal the bike. Will be great this summer when he is four. The Schwinn is a very solid built trike.
