Step2 2-in-1 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Parent Push Car

I used a children belt as a seat belts.

I was looking for something i could use to take my 2 grandsons on walks when they visit. I liked the looks of this and despite the reviews that were somewhat unfavorable due to the handle and assembly issues, I went ahead and ordered it. All the reviews were spot on in describing the assembly and the handle. The assembly wasn't all that bad. Yes, the holes the wheel spindles go in is too small. All I did was take a 3/8th drill bit and made it bigger, not a big deal. There were a couple of reviews that talked about no predrilled holes for some steps of the assembly and this is true, but its plastic and the screws have no issue going through. There are indents, so you know where to put them.Over all, it took me around 45 minutes to put it together, including putting the decals on.The main reason this gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the handle. I have no idea why they designed this with just one screw. As long as your are sticking to sidewalks and don't need to do a lot of sharp turns, this should be ok. I used it quite a bit recently and had no issues and my grandson loved it. I do see at some point the need to reinforce the handle. Hopefully Little Tykes is reading these reviews and making the necessary design changes.

These cars are a little difficult to put together i thought. it took me a while to get one fully put together but when i got it done it was great. we got one just to try out for our daughter and wanted to see how she would do with it. the doors open on both sides and the head lights actually light up. the bottom of the floor comes out also when she is big enough we can take the handle off and scoot herself around and the handle can come off. we liked it so much that we ended up getting another one for our son for his first birthday. the only thing i did not like was that they don't come with like seat belt straps. we actually took the one off of our daughter old push car and screwed it into the one for our son because he kept trying to stand up. these cars are not small, they are pretty big in size; they have two cup holders and a little bit of a truck bed in them for the kids' belongings. we love these and will not hesitate to recommend one to a family member. a little pricey but well worth it.

My 1 year old son is in heaven. Wasn't that hard to put together as long as you have the right tools and some patience. Only thing is that there is no strap on the seat so it is free to roam inside and my son likes to stand on the seat like he's some cool dude in the 90's in the back of a pick up truck with his shades on nodding to all the ladies as he passes by. Overall great product and very cool too!***DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM FROM THIRD PARTY SELLER BLUESPRING***I purchased this on Amazon.com with a third party seller BlueSpring. Paid more for the item and expedited shipping due to time constraints. I received the order with a receipt label from Walmart.com. Found out that they ordered the item cheaper on Walmart.com and had it dropped shipped to me via regular ground shipping (which was free to them on Walmart.com). Please be aware that drop shipping is prohibited on Amazon.com. BlueSpring would not refund me for the expedited shipping, but I went to Amazon directly, reported them, and received my money back on shipping.

My 2yo son really enjoys riding the Little Tikes car whenever we go over his friends house and so I was considering getting him one for Christmas. After a few times watching him and the other kids ride it, my biggest issue with those is that they have two swiveling front tires that are in close proximity. Although they work very well, they're just too close to their legs and feet, often causing them to run over or hit their feet on several occassions. Having little options in the market, I decided to give this one a try - thinking that the single swivel would be an improvement on range of motion and I'm glad I did! (Note: the front tires on the sides are props although they do spin)Received this promptly and was able to put it together in less than an hour. Although I read about some install issues from others, I had absolutely no issues at all albeit from having to drill the front axle holes bigger which was simple. I started off placing all the decal stickers and then followed the instructions step by step. I didn't expect to be hand screwing into the plastic but it was easy. Some users have had issues with doors not aligning. I noticed that the hood install impacts that greatly. The first two screws that go in the hood are intended to close the gap to the front grill (applying front pressure). With just those two screws in, you will notice that the doors will hang high and unleveled. After I flipped the unit over, laying it flat on the top, and finished screwing the other points, this leveled out the doors perfectly. It may be in others habit to attempt to level the doors during the first two screws which may result in an offset when the other screws go in, I would just say to avoid that, follow the pictures, and make sure to screw at the correct angles pictured. Should work unless parts are truly defective. After completion, my impatient son gave it a try and fell in love. It is a lot bulkier than Tikes and is fairly large. He has a lot of space for his feet to roam and does not run over or trap his own foot during play as well as a little trunk bed for his toys.I installed the handle just to give it a try and would agree that it's not the sturdiest. I would only recommend using it as more of an assisted push for kids learning to use their feet or on a flat smooth surface that will provide an easy glide. On rough surfaces, grooves, or obstacles; I can imagine someone putting too much pressure on the handle. I don't believe it'll bend on a straight push because it's design is supported for that motion but using it as a lever to lean on, pull, turn, or attempt to lift the front tire with a heavy enough child in it would probably do the trick. (Just taking guesses, do not try)Not sure how this will do over time but it seems promising for our use (mostly indoors). Very little to complain about but if anything, the handle could be better enforced and I do wish the leg/feet opening was slightly wider. I say that because there is a slight edge on the sides for the Step1 feet cover. It doesn't currently affect my son at his current size but in the future or for a larger child, it may impact their range of motion and turning. I may decide to shave some plastic off in the future but even as-is, a large improvement over Little Tikes range of motion. There are some holes that look like seat belts could be installed which is neat. Door latches are also great although my son is still unsure how to use. Overall first impressions, very happy!

I got this over a year ago, and even though it looks great, I can't really say I'd buy it again if I could go back. The reason being is because, since the wheels are made of plastic (and not rubber) it's REALLY loud when you take it outside. It sounds like 10 shopping carts. It would have been a good product otherwise. I was thinking of putting rubber around the wheels but kind of gave up on it. The lights are cool but not too bright (dim amber lights) and I feel like for 100 dollars it should have rubber wheels. I saw it for around 50 at some places.I gave it 3 stars because they did everything else right, but this noise problem is so bad, you will not want to take it out at night or around other people. There are probably better models out there for the same price or lower.

Dès la première pièce, la tige est trop grosse pour le trou pré fait. Après quelques minutes, je me rends compte que mon plancher a du rouge dessus. Je regarde autour, je suis rouge, mon gars est rouge et mon plancher de bois est teinté de rouge. Une pièce avait beaucoup de peinture en poudre rouge (j'imagine) et maintenant mon plancher est taché de rouge. J'ai du frotter encore et encore. Très très déçu. Je ne suis pas équipé pour percer des plus gros trous, je dois donc attendre l'aide d'un proche.

My 2 year old son loves it even after 6 months of owning it! Has a lot of space for bigger boys to fit comfortably, and storage space in the back for his drinks and snacks. I like that you can remove the foot plate so he can push himself around or install it if you like push him.Con: a bit harder to assemble than usual.. drill might be required to open some screw holes.

My grandson loves this and I would purchase it again despite the rating to see the joy it brings. I bought this on Amazon as I could only find the cars in store. The 2 star rating is due to the time it takes to asemble. A lot of holes had to be drilled again as they were too small which is disappointing. Written instructions would have been very helpful as it was only pictures. Also, there is no seat belt which is an important safety feature to prevent injuries.

Bought this for our infant son as a gift and he loves it. A little more complicated than most toys to put together but it goes together very well. Very durable. The extra middle front wheel makes turning it a breeze. Overall, an amazing product.
