We had been looking for a ride around toy for our 2.5 year old son for a while now. It was easy to assemble, and he loved putting the stickers on the side of the car. It goes fast, but not too fast. It works well inside and outside! It does have to be put on a flat surface to work most effectively, so putting it on grass made it a little difficult. My son can push the car up the ramp himself and get on. Occasionally, the wheels will slip out from the base when he's trying to get on. But he figured out pretty quickly how to make sure it stays still. We will get a lot of good use out of this toy for a long time! It seems very durable. Thank you Step2 for letting me test this item as part of the Step2 Toy Tester Program!
