Customer Review
- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2022I ordered this for my daughter's fifth birthday this past year. It arrived fairly quickly and was hidden at my parents' house. When I arrived a few days prior to her birthday to assemble it, I noticed major damage to the box, and one of the fake handle-bar switches was broken off and could not be repaired. Not good, but the rest was fine so I assembled it and charged it. My daughter has enjoyed it ever since. It is fairly sturdy and yet still light enough for me to pick up and put away in our garage.
She has used it for over two months now and it has not had a single problem. The charger appears to be smart enough to turn off when the proper charge is reached so you can charge it overnight and it will be ready to ride the next day. You get over an hour of riding on an eight-hour charge, but I have not had my daughter run it dead yet, so I am unsure as to how long it will go. If it is like RC car batteries, then maybe one and a half to two hours.
The unit has two forward speeds and one reverse speed. The slow forward speed and reverse speed seem to be about the same, but the fast forward speed is good for a vehicle of this size. The motors whine while operating so I am assuming that they are not brushless. A shame too, because that would prolong motor life, reduce battery usage (longer ride time), and offer more power.
My only complaint beyond arriving damaged, which is the shipper's fault, NOT the seller or manufacturer, is that the steering is very wide. Even with the handle-bars turned all the way, the unit makes wide turns, which limits where it can be used.
Overall, this is a great toy for a young one. If you want to get your kid(s) into ATVs but don't want them on a high-power, expensive, gasoline model, this is a great one to get them learning on!
