This shopping cart arrived on the predicted day, the first day of the range of given dates. It is high quality and built for real kids who like to PLAY. We've tried other kid carts made of plastic and one made of metal and plastic, and they didn't last more than a few uses. This is strong metal, and has support bars under it to keep it from tipping. If the child is pushing down on it (trying to ride inon it), the wheels sink down and lock as a safety precaution. The cart isn't actually big enough for a child to fit in it which keeps my two and six year old using it properly. It's also adorable and very realistic looking, and a cute seat for a doll. The wheels turn for easy steering. I expect it to last for many years of use to come, assuming I don't leave it out in the rain for a season to rust like my friend did with hers.
