Does your kid use the footrest?

No my kid doesn't yet. I think she is afraid to. When her balance gets better I'm sure she will.

Yes and it's a little larger than what I have seen on other balances bikes! When she got comfortable with balancing she would rest her feet. Because of this balance bike she is riding her regular bike without training wheels, it's awesome!!

My son is 3, and does not use the footrest. He glides quite a bit by balancing with his feet hovering over the ground, so the footrest is not really helpful to him right now, but it's certainly not hurting anything, either.

There is enough room but the small child would probably not be able to reach the foot rest area. Putting the small child in the front would be best, but feet would still not reach.

Yes I do. It's perfect for a child that doesn't need to sleep but only to seat sometimes during the day if their parents walk fastly or if he is tired.Isometimes my children also sleep on my cosco I put it more inclined

Excellent question, there is not footrest since it's kid pedal powered. I do wish it had a place for the kids feet but then it would make it hard for them to propel themselves forward.

Yes, we used a booster seat til he was almost two, the side rails helped keep him inside the confines of the chair too.

I would say this is the only complaint that I would have about this chair. The tray is fixed so you cannot move it to fit to your child. My daughter is actually able to pull her legs up and put her feet on top of the tray. Personally, this isn't a big deal to me. But I can see this being a problem for some.

Yes, his feet may hang over but that is only if he lays straight out flat. It is designed to fit up to 8 year olds. I absolutely love it, I bought one for my house for my grandson and one for my daughter for her house. It is worth its weight in gold. It is extremely comfortable. My grandson naps in it, watches TV in it.

We just bought this and used it for the first time this week. Our daughter though is 8 months and she was quite comfortable. The child is sitting in an upright position though so I would not use it until they could hold their head up on their own.

My 2 yr old is only 33 inches tall and he just fits into the seat. Your child will either sit with bent knees most of the time or will just never use the foot rest portion of the seat.

I haven't found that the footrest falls down when their feet are resting on it. My son and his cousin each have one and when they want to get down when the foot rest is up, they just slide off the chair and the foot rest goes down as they slide on it. My son and his cousin love these chairs. They are easy clean up too!

My toddler feet rested in the footrest until about 5 (plus he was too tall to fit under the canopy). I think it is more comfortable than my other double stroller, at least for them, since they have more space to rest their feet. I can't think of a time when their feet interfered with the wheels however I can remember plenty of times with my other stroller.

I thought the same and I even bought a board for my older son! And when it arrived I was extremely happy he sits on the footrest,because the twins feet are still too short to reach there. We never use the board,my four years old sits happily in the front! :) (not for jogging,just when walking around:) Safety first! )

No there is no foot rest. For brief periods of time when I do push my son on it, he has placed his legs a bit up on top but I don't think this is viable for any extended period of time.

I don't use it because it was so uncomfortable. My grandson uses one and it is holding up well. He is only 6 though.

Not really... My 2 year old sat hunched over on the bench since the front chair back has to be fully reclined. I ended up purchasing the Caboose Too rear seat so she could have a more comfortable ride back there. It doesn't help that the bench does not lock in place, so her hunched position would get worse as the bench would slide out of place.

Yes, even if your baby sleeps lightly. The only way to elevate the footrest is to push down on the handlebar so that the front wheel comes off the ground. This will tip the baby backwards and make him or her even more comfortable while sleeping.

No. The seat will be ready to go once you adjust the straps for your child's height/weight.
