We received these and all of the wheels don't roll. Is this normal?

Sometime the wheels need to be loosened. Try taking them to the skating center and see if they can loosen them with a special tool they have. If they can't loosen them, send them back.

No, they should all roll. If you go to a roller skating rink they will loosen the wheels. Or you can get a skate key and loosen them yourself.

Definitely not!!! They all should roll and i believe only the outer wheels light up

Never had a problem..my granddaughter wheels ru freely...she never complained, and they all light up, tells me they are working.

The wheels are a very nice hard rubber - much like skateboard or roller skate wheels. We have had ours since this past Christmas and my kids ride them daily and the wheels still look great!

They rotate but not easily. On my wood floors the wheels just slide since it's plastic and has little friction.

I am having problems putting the wheels/casters on the bottom. They don't seem to be clicking?

yes this is normal. the rotor blades are loose so if you hit something they won't break. once you power it up and they are spinning they will flatten out

I just recently got mine. The wheels on mine are not good quality. The front wheel will not swivel.

They are sort of in the middle. They are softer than the usual cheap wheels, but not as soft as an air filled wheel. They seem to soak up the small bumps pretty well.

ours works just fine...i would double check on each component to make sure they are firm and properly put together

The handles move independently from the roller, so yes they do roll. It might take awhile for them to really loosen up when brand new though.

The wheels are pretty solid so they really don't soak up bumps in my opinion. Best of luck.

I will second the break-in period comment. If you spin the wheels by hand when you first put them on, they will seem quite slow. go out a couple times on them, they will "loosen up" just slightly, then they'll spin like.... your GF in spin class (if she's a spinner). Also, bearings when cold will always spin slower than the same bearings when warmed up, just like a car's greased parts --the grease gets less viscous as the engine warms.

The wheels are a hard plastic but very sturdy. They lock so they do not move much at all. I have not had any problems with the wheels.

I had no problems with the wheels, mine was with the height adjustment never worked right, it always lowered to lowest position in after a few mins.

I would recommend swapping the wheels out with a more "professional" brand. Personally I swapped these generic wheels out with Orangutan 4 presidents. Swapping the wheels out for a more softer wheel should allow you to glide over bumps. Overall these trucks haven't failed me. They are loose but not too loose. They can also handle hills very well.

I have a problem with the 2 back wheels. After we had snapped on the wheels, we noticed the carriage was uneven. It's minor, but I can feel it when u push it. My only suggestion is to undo the wheel and put it back on. If nothing works, just send it back for a replacement. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I'm glad you asked this question. I received one last week and the wheel is incredibly wobbly. I just ordered a second one for comparison, and hopefully it will be secure and stable. The first one is definitely going to be returned.

I have placed this in a stationary position and don't believe I used the wheels. It is at a second home where I will be next week. Ask me then and I will check. Pat
