Some reviews say that it is wobbly so I am concerned. Is it just as sturdy as any other toddler climber? Is it appropriate for a 3 year old?

It is somewhat stable -- HOWEVER-- my grandson likes to stand at the top and shake the slide. He can get it moving pretty well and I have to really keep a grip on it not to tip over! This slide is used indoors and with total supervision. I would never trust to be used without complete HANDS ON supervision.

I think it's alittle wobbly, but my 3.5 year old nephew has no problem playing on it. You should be fine.

Its fairly stable. You could tie down the support beam on bottom for added stability, but my 1 yr old and 4 yr old Love it! Its here to stay.

I got ours for a 1 year old and it is fine for him and probably for another few years, for a 3 year old I would go with something bigger so they can grow into it!

It's pretty sturdy. I've got 3 kids who climb all over it and it's held up well. I guess it would depend upon whether the gentleman sat down and put on his shoes, then got back up again, or if he used it as a stepstool to climb up to a higher shelf (partial-weight, stable mass -vs- full weight, moving mass). I would say -probably.-

Honestly I'm still expecting but it looks like it should last till we are in a toddler bed. And I can't remember exactly but I believe it holds up to 30 lbs and my 5 year old is 55 lbs so it should be strong enough to hold most toddlers but every kid is different and it will depend on how long your child decides to stay in without curiosity on climbing out.

My son is 3 years old and has played with it every day since Christmas day. He thinks he is a chef. I had bought pots, fake foods, plates and utensils for him to get the full use out of the kitchen. He seems to like it enough to play with it. He is tall and I thought this would be an issue but it's pretty perfect for him, no complaints at all. Good luck.

I think it's pretty sturdy. better quality than I expected. Mine is at the foot of my bed and I would be comfortable with a toddler using it as support. I just do not know about it being okay without being against something.

I think it would hold your 3 year old with no problem, but I do think it's built more for a younger child. Once they are secured in they can't move. It's kind of like a tight harness.Hope this helps!

Definitely not for a climber! My son is only about 22 lbs and stands at the front and shakes it. Its also not all that tall, to be honest. My son loves it, but he isn't a climber. It won't support that weight, I'm afraid. There are some really cute climbers with slides and whatnot on here that you might like. We got the Little Tykes All-Star one.

My 3 year old does love it and has no problem putting together or taking projects apart. My 6 year old the same but she towers over the top of the back part so to play with it she has to bend over to do so although they both like to play with the pieces making things on the floor so no biggie. Once again hope this helps

My daughter is 3 and had no issue. The handle adjusts. Unless the 2 year old is very small it should be fine. Like the previous poster I have not seen the other one. However, if it holds up to my daughters wear and tear. I would think it would be fine. I am 5' tall and can push it without bending if I adjust the handle to the highest position

We have had a few 2 and 3 year olds on it no problems. I would imagine it would be ok for a couple more years

It's very stable. My daughter at 9 months has no problem pulling herself up with it. My 3 year-old has even sat on the top so it's sturdy.

i feel like the step at the top was a little far from the top, but i got this for my 2 year old and 1.5 year old and they loved it. it is actually pretty sturdy for the structure itself but it is wobbly when its leaning on the toilet, not that it ever fell, just wiggles. i would reccomend this product to you.

It is pretty sturdy. My son (age 9), daughter (age 12) and friends (up to age 14) all use and love the Fliker. I would definitely recommend users have elbow and knee pads and an helmet if they do tricks.

It is sturdy - but your toddler will easily push it over. Also, got mine last summer, and now the paint is peeling off. Maybe I should have taken it inside during the winter.

If your 2 year old can climb well and you are willing to help a few times and supervise I think so. My son wasn't 3 yet when he started on this and he caught on quickly!

It is quite sturdy. We really liked it, however my son outgrew it very quickly. He got it for his first birthday but had already out grown it (short wheel base, he would hit his feet with back wheels when trying to go, which didnt stop him from trying, but was quite sad to watch, ha. We had to put it up.) well before his second birthday. He is a touch on the taller side though, but I don't see it lasting until 3 reguardless. I think I remember wishing that the steering locked when he first started using it. Other then that it was perfect for one and we like it a lot.

Specs say 3-6, but both of my kids were younger when they started (Our daughter has been using it since She was about 15 months but couldn't climb in until more like 18 months, our son was 2 1/2). You need to judge how tippy they are, as it is possible to fall out (both of my kids have done that as well when messing around). If your kid can safely navigate stairs, this ought to work for them
