can anyone tell me how to put this together?? -- I can't get the back piece to fit into the slot, and can't get the wheels to go onto the bottom.

If the back does not fit in the slot, the chair might have been damaged in shipment. I had the same issue and tried to get the part replaced. No luck dealing with manufacturer. (although the documents state to not contact seller and to contact Manhattan Comfort directly. You might find going through Amazon is quicker and less troublesome.)

It's like a bike...assembles the same way. Do you have a bike shop near you. They could help you in minutes. My son had to do it as I was lost. Or like others have said...try utube.

Thanks SirBrad... I was having problems extending the bottom as well. Your suggestion helped me a lot. It's a pity they didn't specify this in the instructions.

I had no problems putting mine together. There is an allen wrench that you use. Took all of 15 minutes if that. Just look at picture to show which part is the back and which is the front. I assume maybe others had a problem and might have put them together with back of seat as the seat.

I remember having the same problem. Try something different for the spacer or cut the spacer in half. Once you get it to snap together, it will be fine. It has been assembled and in heavy use by my 5 year old since I bought it.

Thank you Chris. Do you know if I can find help from Walmart or any other handy store? I am relatively new in Fort Wayne, IN and don't have any friend to call upon. I am willing to pay for the assembling.

The instructions that came with mine were not the best. It has been a while since I put mine together, but I remember I had to take areas apart to get the shelves in, so don't tighten any screws all the way. If I can remember correctly, I put on side together then the other side. Then I put the shelves in. The main top and wheels went on last. It is a good sturdy piece of furniture for the price, once it is put together. I am sorry I cant be of more assistance but I wish you luck.

We bought three of these, one for each grandchild. The wheels were tough to get in but after watching the video my husband got them in and we haven't had any trouble with them staying in place. Don't be afraid to really use some strength on them. Make sure you have them in the correct position, it almost seemed to me that you are putting them in backwards. Once they click into place they are locked in and stay. Good Luck and I hope you get this mastered. The grandkids as well as the adults have had hours if fun riding these.

I didn't have to remove the front wheels to get room to work, just turning the wheels gave enough room to work. I did remove the rear wheels to get room to work because I did have to drill one hole on each side. There was a little dimple in the plastic fender lip that told me where to drill. I don't know if there would have been a way to do the rear without taking the wheels off but it was easier to do that try to figure out a way around it. You are not drilling into metal, just plastic so it goes easy. Maybe just holding a nail in a pair of pliers and heating up the point to melt into the dimple would be good enough? Overall, I thought it went easily and was very happy with these mud flaps. I didn't have to remove the front wheels to get room to work, just turning the wheels gave enough room to work.

I know, it need lot of imagination to get it assembled... gosh, I don't remember how I got it at the end, but I did reassemble a few time to get it right. ==" and the end product is ok. Sorry, I wish I could help. :(

Did you get any answers? I can't figure out how to put the wheels on securely.

I had the same problem. My son took it home and fixed it for me. Please check instructions. If you don't have them, you can google them. Note the placement of the spacers on the wheels. If the spacers are put on incorrectly, the wheels will bang into each other and not be able to close up. You will need to remove the lock pieces on the wheels and replace the spacers onto the other frame. Hope this helps.

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!

it has been a while since I bought mine but I remember when I first put it together I screwed the wheels on too tightly and I could not push it very well. I loosened the wheels and it worked fine.

The main piece comes put together.The back piece(that holds your back up), top wheel, and the 2 knee holders/pads need to be assembled. It took 2 minutes! I promise you.The back has to be screwed but its just with your hands, no tools needed. They're just 2 bolts. And the top wheel & knee holder/pad just needs to be placed on top, no screw, no tools nothing. Just place it on top. It's really quick. I was grateful ;).

Try googling the instructions. Very simple to put together. You tube probably has a video.

Yes it is very hard to get the wheels on. What you have to do press really hard and move the wheel right to left at the same time while you're pushing it in. Cnce there are in you ain't getting them out. Hope it works out for you.
