Heirloom Peice!
Date - December 18, 2009
"I bought this for my son's first birthday because I wanted something he would keep and pass on to his children some day. He is three now and still loves to play on it! No dents but the lettering can become scuffed. We're in the military and everywhere we go people ask where we got it and some even ask if it was mine as a child. I loved these so much that I bought the silver roadster for my 2nd child for his first birthday and now they drive all over the house together! Definitely worth the money!"

Strong truck, weak steering wheel

Grandson loved it!
Date - October 20, 2009
"Ordered this for my one year old grandson's birthday. Came just as pictured, great quality and easy assembly. Had it shipped directly to his house so I didn't have to carry it. Best of all, my grandson absolutely loved it!"

We Love It
Date - October 20, 2009
"We purchased this truck last Christmas for our grandson who turned 2 the February following Christmas. It has always been an inside toy at our house. He tips it on its side and "fixes" it with his tools and batteries (it doesn't need batteries, but he puts them in anyway). It is so classic, and we get many comments and questions about where we got it."

"This firetruck is absolutely adorable and very well made. My little boy prefers to push it from the back, rather than ride it. It was a good purchase for Christmas."

Great Purchase
Date - January 22, 2009
"We bought this for my son (almost 1) for Christmas. He loves it. It was pretty easy to assemble. I love the sturdy design. My son hasn't figured out the steering yet, so her runs into things a lot. My husband and I love the classic look."

Great for a One Year Old
Date - November 25, 2008
"Our son loves to ring the bell, it looks great in his room AND it is functional. Our one year old fits nicely on the seat and likes to be pushed around by his daddy. Anytime we sit him on this he laughs and smiles. We took this with us as a prop for his one year photos and they turned out great. Recommend."

"We received this fire engine as a gift for my son's first birthday. He loved it! It is a great height - easy for a one year old to sit on and push themselves around on. And the back is the perfect size to put a stuffed animal to ride along! I now have a one year old daughter and she loves it just as much!"

Cute but..
Date - August 10, 2008
"My 2 1/2 year old loves fire engines so I bought this to fuel his obession. I had a hard time putting the ladder part together finally I went to my local hardware store and got longer screws. The steering is really tight and my son has a hard time navigating with it. But it's really nicely constructed and takes a lot of abuse."

Great Ride-on
Date - May 21, 2008
"My son got this fire engine for his first birthday, he is now three and is still playing with it. It is really well made and easy for him to pedal around with his feet. For the first year we kept it in the house for him to play with, but now it's an outside toy - worked great for both."

Adorable fire engine
Date - May 6, 2008
"I have to admit, I bought this fire engine before my son was even born because I loved it so much! It sits on top of his Land of Nod District 28 Armoire! We get tons of compliments on it, people always think it is actually vintage. Now that my son is 1 we finally took it down and let him try it out. So far it's a bit too big/heavy, but he does love to ring the bell :-)"

Super cute, but tough to scoot.
Date - April 13, 2008
"Stinkin' adorable fire engine, however my son has a real hard time scootin' it. He got it for his first birthday and he's now nearly 17 months and still struggling. His heel keeps hitting on thee back fenders. Who knows, maybe it'll get better as his legs get longer...but for now he does still enjoy it.
I also wish the bell string had an attached spot so it wouldn't always fall out of reach on the hood."

Great Gift for the Celebrated Son
Date - April 11, 2008
"We proudly gave this smart little gift to a friend's first son on his Baptism Day. Sure, we spent a little more than we usually would, but it was worth it after hearing how appreciated it was. I learned later that their son used this study little ride-on both indoors and outside."

beautiful toy
Date - April 11, 2008
"The fire truck is absolutely gorgeous. The detail and finish on this product are amazing. My nephew (3 years old) loved it and continues to play with it on and off a few months later. It is a bit smaller than I had imagined and I think it would probably be an even better purchase for a slightly younger child."
