This balance bike is absolutely adorable! It's made of sturdy plastic and feels like it should stand up to the endless use I'm sure it will be getting! I love that the wheels are wide enough to give it a fair amount of stability while still allowing your child to learn to balance themselves. It will tip over, but it's relatively easy to keep upright, making it a great choice for young children so they can start out feeling successful. I wasn't sure I was super onboard with it having built in music, but it's actually less obnoxious than I expected it to be. I would really, really, REALLY appreciate a volume button that allows the music to be turned down though. The lack of a volume control is really my only complaint though! It feels sturdy and well made, was easy to assemble and is absolutely adorable!The bike is cute! It balances on its on wide tires very well, it will stand on its own. My little guy is 14m and has no trouble balancing and is getting down the scooting idea, for now it’s only backwards lol.It’s not a problem, but I did think the tires would be more of a rubber material. These are hard plastic, so not good for outside or hard floors. You will need carpet or maybe grass.
