Radio FlyerClassic 10 Inch Toddler Tricycle with Rubber Tires and Steel Frame, Red

I really like this tricycle. It reminds me of when I was a kid way too long ago. Radio Flyer has been around a long time. I really like that. It has all the Radio Flyer quality that I was used to when I was a kid. Very sturdy and well built. Good instructions on how to assemble. It took me about 30 minutes to assemble only because I could not find my hammer. This is what took the most time. If I had all the tools available, it should have only taken 10 or 15 minutes at the most.This tricycle has a rod in the back which allows you to keep your child going the right direction. This rod is a great addition for a beginner tricycle. It can be removed when no longer needed. If you push the rod slowly and help your child to steer with his or her arms and hands then your child will quickly learn how to steer this great toy. Start out slow and don't do the steering yourself. Pull and push on your child's arms and hands to steer the tricycle. This way they more quickly learn what is required to steer.The only thing I did not like was that it was made in China. However, I did not ding the product for being made in China. The price was great for the quality of this product. I sure would like to see "Made in the USA" more. Kind of saddens you when the great toys of yesterday are no longer made in the good ole USA. Still rated it 5 stars because it does look to be very sturdy and should be around in the family a long time. I still use a 30 years old Radio Flyer wagon to pull my 2 year old in. I used it years ago with my second child who is now 30 years old. Sure do like the name brand.NOTE: I was careful to read the reviews before I bought this tricycle for my 2 year old. Taking a few minutes reading reviews can save you a whole lot of time down the road. This is something I am doing more and more as I order more products over the internet versus buying locally. Most local retailers sell junk so you will have to buy again soon. This helps them maximize their profits. But does you little good. This is why I am more and more an internet shopper for what my family needs and wants. I live in a large metropolitan area with many stores close by and I am convinced that most of what the local stores are selling is junk so they can make another sale soon of the same type of product.

A well constructed bike. Sturdy & cute! It is the first thing my girl asks for when she visits.

I bought two of these to use for a tricycle relay race during a high school pep rally. The full steel construction makes these the best tricycles on the market. It takes under 10 minutes to put together and are darn near indestructible once they are built. These tricycles were abused for over 30 minutes without issue. If it can handle a 6ft 220+ pound linebacker riding on it without any issues, this tricycle can stand up to any abuse your toddler can throw at it.

This Tricycle is of the same quality and construction (all metal) as it was in the 50’s & 60’s. I bought it for my 3yr old grandson and he loves it! It was so easy to assemble, he could have done it himself. I highly recommend this product.

Overall good quality for what's on the market today. Didn't know seat was made of metal. Issue is it is slippery to sit on as well hard. Other negative, the bell is difficult for a 3 year old to ring. Expected something easier to operate. Installation was easy. Took less than 15 minutes.

Sturdy bike that will last many years. The bell and handle bar tassels add to the fun

Purchased two of these for granddaughters to use while at our house. No complaints.

We purchased this trike just prior to a visit with the grandkids, It arrived on time (actually, two days early)and in good shape. The bike has a cream and red paint job and looks new-vintage. It was easy to put together. We all loved the look (including the parents). I was glad to find a tricycle built from metal instead of plastics as my grandson is quite the little demolisher. Grandpa took him for a ride atleast 5 times each day that we were there. Although very tall for his age, our 20mo. could not quite keep his feet on the pedals when in motion but had no problems keeping his feet up during the ride. He did steer a lot and sometimes cranked the wheel to the left (out of the blue) making us roar with laughter. A light push down on the bar corrected the movement quite easily. We chose this trike over the ones with the adult steering simply due to the free ratcheting pedals on that other style. We wanted the kids to be able to learn to ride as normal, with the safety of an adult near the helper bar. The other style is free wheeling; meaning if the child goes down a hill (even a slight grade), the bike takes off with no means of controlling the speed. They cannot pedal backwards in that type, or put pressure on the pedals to slow down the speed. I didn't want our grandkids rolling into the street at a fast speed with no means of stopping. This is just my opinion and a major reason we chose this particular trike. All in all, we feel we made a great choice and this radio flyer will be in use for a long time then passed down to the next child when out grown, rather than thrown in the trash when worn out.
