Santa Claus brought this for my two young sons for Christmas and my husband put it together a couple of weeks ago. My boys, 3 1/2 and 5, really love it along with their 9 year old sister. The neighborhood children are having a blast. My 13 year old son enjoys giving the kids an extra push to see how far they go.

This is the second one given in our family. It was used for the first time just the other day and one of the wheels keeps falling apart. We are going to need a replacement for it, the present one may have a flaw. The children do enjoy the coaster though. Please let me know how to get a replacement of the wheel in question since this is brand new. Thank you.

I bought this for my 3yr old's birthday as the next step up from the smaller (and much loved) coaster. i was nervous after some reviews for difficult set-up, but i had no problem. 4 big bolt in pre drilled holes, and a hand full of screws that went in easily (with a drill) but the holes were not pre-drilled. it took about 20 min to set up for me. my only issue with it is that it takes up half my garage. you can't just pull it apart like the smaller coaster. so put it together where ever you want to keep it. because its big and bulky. my children love it! my 3 yr old went right to it and played for hours. my fearless 13 mo old even loves to ride it (although i make him wear a helmet) i thought it would be to big for him, but he was so used to the smaller coaster, it was an easy jump to the big one. all the neighbor kids come out of the wood work whenever we bring it out to play. we have had it 4 months now and it hasn't gotten old at all. it was definitely worth the investment. i plan on using it for years to come!

I based my purchase of this product on recommendations by other people. The extreme coaster is a gift for my 2 year old grandson and 5 year old granddaughter. I have not opened the boxes or given them the coaster as a gift as their birthdays are in April...but I loved the sale price I purchased the extreme coaster for and[...] was awesome....I look forward to spring and setting up the coaster for them in my yard.

I'm a Step2 Ambassador and was given the opportunity to review the Extreme Coaster. This is the COOLEST toy ever and by far my 4 year old's most favorite Step2 toy of all time! He can push the little car up the ramp by himself and launch himself off the ramp. Repeat, for like an hour. "AGAIN" he'd shout! I've seen the Extreme Coaster online, but the photos do not do it justice on how FUN it is. This is the kind of toy that he won't easily get bored of and huge bonus points for the coaster providing him an energy outlet because he has TONS of it.

This is a super toy for those little daredevils who are very active. My son (the little daredevil) was 20 months old when we gave him this and he loves it. Within the first hour he was launching himself, riding down with his hands in the air, woo-hooing, then pushing the car back up the ramp by himself to do it all over again. It tires him out so he sleeps great at night!The only suggestion I would have is that maybe the "railing" around the top could be taller because my son likes to climb up to the top and roll his cars down the grooves that the wheels ride in. When he's standing up on that top platform the sides are very short and offer no support to keep him from going over the edge. I know it wasn't designed for children to do this so I'm not complaining, I'm just saying that he has a tendancy to do this and it would be safer if the rails were higher.Used properly, it is very safe, durable, and loads of fun. Worth every penny!

My kids love this. I have two girls 7 and 4yrs. old and they spend hours outside on this thing. They dont even mind having to push it back up to the top every time. It took me about an hour to put together but that is becuase I didn't have some of the proper tools needed but was easy once I had them, being a single mom. There really isn't anything wrong with this product. It is fun and they get a lot of excersie from pushing the car back up the incline stairway. It is very sturdy and is a great size even for smaller yards like ours. [...]. I would definitly recommend this product.

My 5 and 3 year old girls love this roller coaster and spend a tremendous amount of time using it in our backyard.I would recommend (if using it on grass) setting it up somewhere where you will not care if the grass gets ruined. The car will destroy the grass it rolls on after a very short period of time.

I bought the extreme coaster for my grandsons ages 5 and 2 to play with at my house. Both boys love it. The car rolls easily and the boys enjoy a nice ride. Our driveway is only about 35 feet long and they shot past it and into the grass. They got lots of exercise and had fun doing it! They said I was the best MiMi ever!!

My boys absolutely love it!! We have a hill in our backyard so once they come down the roller coaster, they keep going. They scream with delight every time they ride it. It wears them out pushing it back up the hill so naptime is the best ever!! I highly reccommend it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
