My 4 year old recieved this as a christmas gift.He had it all of 30 minutes when the horn stopped working and the vacuum stopped working. He was riding it put it in reverse went to switch it to drive and ciuld not get it in drive. it took us having to unplug the battery in order to get it to power off. when we powered it back on the horn and the vacuum wouldnt work.

Vacuum is weak and easy to accidentally unplug

It's okay…it's a very powerful toy and can go pretty fast BUT the vacuum is very weak and doesn't pickup a lot on hardwood floors. You also have to be very careful not to turn the wheel too hard or you'll unplug the horn and vacuum feature from the base. We had this happen twice and had to unscrew the toy completely to be able to reach inside and plug it back in (it's a HUGE pain and takes a very long time). I think with better accessibility to the inside and stronger suction, this could be a GREAT toy!

Beware it is FAST, has mech issues

I've had this for a few weeks but finally assembled it for my grandkids yesterday. It was not difficult to put together, but DO read instructions (i'm usually want to figure it out but just looking at the picture, not going page by page on instructions). One of the first problems I had with it was the steering wheel was loose, even though it was hand tightened very well. So put it rod back in and tightened it again and now it doesn't seem to tighten all the way. The horn is not working at all. Connection seems good, so don't know why that's happening. When 7 yr old got on it and started driving it. It was going very fast, especially if in the higher gear. Like dangerously fast, especially if you're trying to vacuum in the house. TOO FAST - even in lower gear, although the kids loved it. I let them use it at first without the vacuum attachment and then put the vacuum attachment on. After putting the attachment on the vacuum is not vacuuming and I still can't figure out why. It's LARGE size, might be great for a big house but if you don't have a lot of floor space beware that this is pretty large and won't go around Furniture tightly. If I can't figure out the issues, I'm going to be taking it back to the store.

Works for go kart function only. The wires in the steering wheel disconnected from the vacuum so all it is good for is a ride on toy. Only buy if you plan to not use it as a vacuum.

Makes cleaning fun!

This vacuum is awesome! It sucks up every piece of dirt and paper in seconds. And the cart design totally cool — my nephew is obsessed with the speed! The sounds horn and lights add to the fun. It was easy to assemble and is very well made.

Well it doesn't have any stops on the steering so the more it turns the more stressed the wire to the steering get until it breaks.

Maybe yours will get delivered unbroken..doubt it

We returned the first one because the seat was cracked and when we got the second one the seat was also cracked.
