My daughter is 6 (49 lbs.) and is working on back walkovers. Space is an issue for us and I'm wondering if the small wedge would work? Any thoughts?

If she is tall it might not.... But it is smaller and less expensive. However, you will want to be with her At ALL times when using the mat because it is not stable and will flip over. I bought it for my 2 year old who she first started gymnastics... She is almost 4 now and weighs 40lbs. The mat is really made to attach to another mat for security... But it has been a wonderful way for my daughter to practice skills at home. I would recommend it.

Well, "bruh" if you are 8, it gets sick air! I'm sure the stronger one is, the higher you can go. No, there wouldn't be back flips happening...and it does feel a bit tight right out of the box.

Weight wise she's ok. I'm 185 and got on it for grins. My daughter is only 5yo and 43 inches. I think it's a great size for her. I think your daughter may find the foot board short and cramped. A bigger one may be more stable and she'll have some room to grow with it.

My daughter didn't have a problem. My grand-daughter is rather light, so it could be a question of weight.

My son is 4 months/ 18lbs and 25 inches. His feet hang off the end and we have to use it on 6 (the highest setting). It still moves smoothly but it's MUCH slower than it was when he was small.

Yes I bought it for my 2 1/2 mo old and it worked fine. Although my daughter was 11 lbs at the time. Now shes 4 1/2 mo and 17lbs and still has plenty of room!

In my opinion, yes. My daughter's a tall three and its pretty small next to her. It does it's job, but small.

If she is not having to lift it I would say it would be fine for her. It isn't super heavy but it is awkward. We have found that slipping the foot rests off helps. It rolls well and the seat could use some more padding, but a memory foam type cushion works well in the one we bought my dad. The 16" width fits easily through most doors.

My daughter uses it and she is 2 1/2 on the short side. We use it with one of the IKEA small stools and she is fine. She goes all by herself now.

Yes. Recommended sizing on medium wedge is up to 120 pounds. This is excellent for youth skim and wave riders.

We have been considerign purchasing this, can anyone attest to the true smaller size this posts. I just bought a Nissan Versa and thought 3 kids would fit comfortably in the back seat (not quite). We currently have the Evenflo Triumph, Fisher Price Safe Voyage booster, and an 11 year old that gets squeezed wherever she fits. The kids are actually 3, 9, and 11. The 9 year old still needs the booster-he is only 60 pounds. I am considering purchasing this car seat but only if I can get all three kids comfortable in the back seat. This would replace the Triumph.

If she does, it won't be for long... my niece who just turned 6 is 45 pounds can barely fit for a few minutes comfortably. When my daughter who is probably about 34 inches sits in it, she probably only has a foot of space above her head (and less space for getting in and out as the roof arches up for more headspace once inside). You might want to look for another toy, or you can get this and enjoy it for a little while. I'm sure you could sell it easily when you're done with it (or save it for another kiddo).

I would say no. My 7 mo old is on the talk side weighing almost 19lbs. And while she does still sit in it, she prefers the side to side motion vs the the front to back and her legs hit the rail. I just wouldn't invest in it this late in her growth. Was awesome from newborn up.

I had the same problem - The bike is probably a little too tall for her. I was able to drill 2 holes in the back rods to lower it as far as it would go in the back and be able to keep it level with the front being all the way down. If your daughter will be learning to ride with or w/o training wheels then this is not the bike for her, but if she already is an accomplished rider then she will be able to jump on and off as the bar in the middle goes down enough to allow her take offs and stops. I've seen taller girls not be able to ride these and small girls jump on and off as they were athletic and accomplished at riding. Good Luck with your decision.

I'd say yes. Our baby is more than 22 lbs and still rides comfortably in the Ergo (don't recall how long he is) - you may find that as your daughter gets heavier, *you* are more comfortable with her on your back instead of in front (and the side-carry option is nice to switch things out, though I never do that for long periods of time). We still use the Ergo in all three holds with our little guy. :)

We have two of these, and my oldest daughter still (barely) fits in hers, at 30 pounds. She's 2yrs, 3mths old. It also works well on my 6 mth old at about 15 pounds.

My husband and I are both a bit shorter and 100# lighter, but honestly, it is so firm, I would give it a try. Its pretty darned firm. The wedge is really solid foam and then the top of the foam wedge is a 1" layer of softer foam, which makes it more comfortable and can fit our bodies better. I like it so much and I would guess it will be just fine for you. At any rate, there's a good chance it will make you happy and if it doesn't, return it. Amazon is great for that. Its worth the gamble and I suspect you will be on the winning side. Good luck!
