You definitely get what you pay for, but at the price for this scooter I would have expected more.
An adjustable handle bar, so as your child gets older it can adjust in height.
The wheels are high quality and the turning is a great design.
But honestly, at $70 is a little high. At $50 this would fly off their shelves.
A good choice overall. mini kick Scooter - GREEN
I recently ordered this for my son's third birthday and it's been a huge hit. His older brother (5 years old) has one as well, but is at least a year away from outgrowing it.
The first few days, he had to work a lot on going straight as he learned how to use his weight to steer. Within a week, he was flying up and down the sidewalk and steering / braking like a champ. Helmets are a necessity, while the scooter is very safe and stable, once they master it they really can pick up speed!
Pros:
Good size range - my very petite 3 year old can handle it, his 5 year old brother rides the same size scooter as well
Quality - apart from some very minor fading, the two year old scooter is in the same great condition as the new one. They get heavy use, stay on the porch, and look great!
Play value - The boys ride these daily, my oldest has used his for two years so far. Really, what toy lasts for 2 years anymore?
Cons:
Compared to other scooters, they're pricey. The quality justifies the cost though, in my experience.
Doesn't fold - It would be nice to be able to toss these in a suitcase, but that's a rare need for us. Compared to other scooters that do fold, this is a much better quality.
We just gave this scooter to our 3 year old son. He wanted a green scooter for his birthday & this was perfect. He learned how to ride it within 1 day. The scooter is very sturdy and very easy for him to maneuver. He "scoots" up & down our driveway & turns without toppling over. Perfect size for his little feet & he has grasped the idea of using the break. Having the 2 wheels in the front & the one wheel in the back seems to be a wonderful feature. I definitely recommend this scooter. It's been worth every penny!
Got this for my son's third birthday. It took him two days to get used to it, and on the third day he was very comfortable riding it. By the fifth day he learned how to steer because the steering mechanism on this scooter depends on how you lean when you make the turn. This is different concept than other scooters. The only suggestion for improvement is to have better instructions for assembly which were not very clear. Example, they have an allen wrench included in the box but it is for another model. No wrench required to assemble this model. Just push the tab and insert it in the base. Overall, my son loves this toy and it was a good purchase.
Can't say enough good things about this scooter. Got it a couple of months ago for my 2-year-old based on all the great reviews here. It's lived up to the hype. My son was zipping along on this with very little practice in a very short amount of time. Now he can do tight little maneuvers and loves experimenting with his body weight -- leaning to one side, sitting low, standing up high -- to see how he can change his momentum. Today he was trying to do wheelies on it, obviously without much success but still great fun for him. He mostly rides it indoors because it's winter, but the wheels are super-quiet and don't mark our wood floors at all. Some friends were over today and were eyeing it for their 4-year-old son -- they say he hardly got into his Radio Flyer scooter because it stops going as soon he stops pushing with one foot. That's never been a problem with this Mini Kick. I highly, highly recommend it!
This is the second scooter I bought for my kids. I love how durable is. I had in the past the Radio Flyer scooter, which was much slower, less durable and very hard to turn.
This, instead, is much easier to turn and narrower so my little ones can stand on one foot while pushing/propelling themselves with the other foot.
It is a quality product and your kids will love it!
This scooter is incredible. It is surpassable the best scooter available. Due to its ease and sturdy wheels, even a 2.5 year old could ride it. When your child is comfortable enough to go faster, this scooter will allow them to keep up with other kids and or parents as well. I cannot say enough about Micro scooters. My older son had this scooter when we lived in London to keep up with me walking and now I have the green scooter for my other son. Yes, it is even worth paying the higher price!
My son loves his scooter! This is the best scooter, the two wheels in the front make it really stable and easy for him to use. It's on the expensive side, but it's the only one I found with the two wheels in the front, others have two wheels in the back, which is less stable. Every kid on the upper west side is riding one of these!
My 3yo daughter just got this and has had a blast learning to ride it. She still doesn't really understand the bodily mechanics of making it zoom around and steering, but she's learning and enjoying it all the while. It balances itself very well- one thing she doesn't have to worry about.'
