The recommended age according to the box is 12 I think, however my 7 year old Grandson "shares" control with his Dad, Dad operates the either the steering or throttle and the 7 year old operates the other control. My grandson loves it.

I have one and it is perfect for my son i believe he will be able to use it until 6 yrs of age depending on height of child so I say 6yrs and below

The suggested age in the product description says 4-8 years. But I knew that my child was physically capable and purchased it at 2 1/2. We do enforce a helmet and knee/elbow pad rule when using it.

My son is going into 3rd grade. His friends love the camera. It can stand the falls & drops & can be wiped off if stick fingers get a hold of it. On Toys r us website they say up to 11 yrs. Not babyish, just sturdy Fisher Price. :)

I gave this to a baby between 4-5 months old and she can get a good grip on it as well as chew--I would say up to a 1 year old at least.

It is durable enough for my daughter who is only 25 lbs and I think it should be good for a few years. That said, it is not the most durable piece of furniture so I don't think it would hold up well for bigger kids as I believe it was assembled with glue/tape and a few screws.

I got this for my son when he was 13 months old. He likes to ride in it and also push it. Amazon's description and I think what is on the box says 18 months to 8 years. 1 year old is fine as long as they are walking a bit and have decent body control. I would think kids will get bored with by age 4.

I bought it for my granddaughter for Christmas, when she was 16 months old. She could get on and off it just fine, but wasn't really capable of making it move, although she could go backward. Now, at nearly 22 months old, she can scoot it around the house easily.

Hi, I would say fairly durable. We've had two for about a year now and we use them as goals, and have had no problems. However, my kids are young 9 ,7, 7. So they do pretty limited damage. But for us they have been perfect.

Over a year for sure. The seat isn't adjustable so the child needs to be able to adjust themselves in the seat if they hit a bump and get moved around.

We bought this for our son when he was around 2 years old. He loved riding in it with us using the push bar, but this was tricky for him to pedal at first. This is a heavier tricycle than most - the seat, basket and pedals are plastic, but the frame is heavy metal, which is why we bought it - for the durability. But once he learned, he rode it everyday and everywhere (in dirt, in gravel, on grass, over rocks, over curbs - it is extremely durable). He is almost 4 years old now and still loves to ride it.

I wouldn't recommend it for a 2-3 year old, there are a lot of very small pieces. It's definitely better for older children. The durability is good. I had one when I was a little girl and 30+ years later it's still in my dad's basement. I purchased one for my 5-year old last Christmas. It's probably a better fit for children around 4-5 at least.

VERY sturdy, 1 year is the perfect age to start using it. My 2.5 year old has used it from 12 mo until now and it's getting too small.

We have had them for about six months with no breakage. My kids aren't too rough but they aren't gentle either. They play with them regularly and there hasn't been a single issue, even with the ones my five year old has. I would say they are pretty sturdy.

My grandson was 3 (now 4) and rides it all the time without problems. I don't think age is a factor if they learn how to use the controls, it weight.

I would say it's durable. BUT for a 5 yr old, I doubt it.also the limbs come off naturally where joints are

The tracks are very durable. I bought this for my youngest when he was 1 and my eldest was 4. They still play with it (2 years later).
