How do these do on grass and gravel? We don't have a paved driveway, so just wondering how well it will roll on unpaved surfaces?

It's powered by your child , so grass should be really easy and gravel would work as your child got stronger. It's a great toy all my children loved it!

I guess that depends on what you mean by offroad. On compacted dirt I think it would do okay, probably not so good on gravel or sand or loose dirt.

sorry, no wheels. it's very light without the weights on it. i just don't drive it on concrete or asphalt-- when i'm using it on the lawn, i drive in a pattern that avoids the need to do so. i suppose you could for a short distance but you'd ding up the tines.

I use it on pavement and it works fine...I'm not sure about dirt roads though. If I hit even a little bump on uneven pavement it bumps all over the place.

Works fantastic on flat concrete and driveways. Not so well on pavement, too rocky. Hope this helps.

Works very well on gravel, I guess that depends on the user. I own my own landscape company and have several. Very well built and a huge time saver. hope that helped.

Yes, the large wheels makes it very easy to walk on grass or dirt roads. Large gravel doesn't work.

I don't have a gravel driveway, but have picked up gravel in the road at the end of the driveway. It still runs, but since it is plastic, I don't recommend running much gravel through it.

I don't think it would be great on asphalt/gravel. It works great on flat cement, but I don't think the wheels will grip well on anything loose.

I use these on a paved bike trail and they are OK. The wheels do not roll by themselves very well, I think it is something with low quality bearings, so it is difficult to keep up with others. If there are any little rocks or stuff on the trail it is impossible to roll, I have to "walk" past the obstacles. I prefer roller blades for outdoors use. I do not have these problems when I use my roller blades.

Nancy, it will not run on grass. It's made primarily for level pavement. It's definitely not an "off road" vehicle.

These can certainly be used outside, but they need a good flat surface - so not gravel or loose dirt. They work great on asphalt, concrete, and seamless wood.

I have used on gravel driveway. It works great just keep it up so your not picking up stone.But may be small for a driveway..

It's very small I don't think it would work well on grass or gravel. We used it in the house or on black top.

Part of my driveway is gravel. I do have to push down on the handles to slightly lift the front end of the snowblower to avoid picking up too much gravel. This would a problem with any snowblower in my opinion. Overall I really like my Husqvarna. It does a great job. --ST

I'd say there a good multi purpose tire. I use them on the street and grass. I havent used them on the dirt yet. They are larger than stock so you may need a gear change. Hope this helps

I saw a brief video (perhaps @ the vendor's site?) which had a nice demo. Near the end of the "run" just do a little "fling" up. I find it works great with dry or wet snow. Just did a search - this demo looks good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9GgYKtBE9Q. PS: I also got the gravel attachment. Hope this is helpful. All the best. Pat
