It's adorable and great for the price. We gave it to my grandson in the winter so not sure about the traction on the tires yet, but the only that i can see disappointing is that the rear dumpbox is manual and it's a little difficult to do (especially for a young child). I thought it would be electric. He loved it and I can't wait to see him in it this summer.

I don't like that for reverse you have to hold the lever down bc it's difficult for young children. The wheels spin too much on the street before actually moving. Looks great, putting it together was problematic bc the directions are not great, however, getting them from YouTube rectifies the problem.

My 3 year old loves this Gator. It has a very long battery life and there are a lot of options out there for this platform to upgrade tires, batteries, motors, etc. A little bit expensive but worth it for the quality. It seems like it will last a long time and we will have fun modifying it together when things start to wear out.

I got this for my grandsons 2nd Birthday. He is a farm baby thru and thru and knew he would love it , which he does.. which is all i asked for. . However with that being said, it seems like it lacks quite a bite of detail that i remember getting on my own daughters jeep on her 2nd Birthday.. It had a play radio with knobs she could play with, a horn, a little key ignition that turned... that was 21 years ago. All and all my grandson absolutly LOVES it !!! So that is priceless.. Would still buy again and have had no issues with it. But still think is bit pricey for what you get with the "name".

Bought this gator for our son for Christmas. In addition to the gator he received the trailer from Santa. On Christmas Day he was excited to get everything set up. Unfortunately, the battery does not charge. Also, the yellow hub caps were not in the box so we couldn’t even put the whole toy together. Very disappointed. We spent over $500 and my son can’t even use this. Hoping the customer service is easy to work with.

So incredibly disappointed and tired of being duped by shoddy descriptions. This is far too small for any child over 3 years old. My 5 year old, who is short for his age, does not fit comfortably and the dump bed doesn’t work with the seat back all the way. Not that the dump bed works good anyway! Very very hard to use even for an adult. The camo is all sticker decals which is a nightmare and won’t last. The instructions were a hot mess. And unless you are a city slicker with only a nice neat little tarred driveway, expect to have very frustrated and stuck children....constantly. Not sure about the life of the battery yet, but it takes a good 15 minutes of wrestling with cords and bars and screws to get it in and out. Parents everywhere would really appreciate a company who can make a decent quality kids ride on....this isn’t it.

Poor traction on grass and flat ground. Battery closure/grill cheap plastic and incredibly difficult to latch. I point this out for safety reasons. Considering the cost of the item and comparable tractors, it’s an expensive item made cheaply and requires you to make additional modifications to make it get traction on flat gravel-watching your kid’s excitement over their new gator deflate because it can’t drive across your driveway that’s an epic fail. I don’t recommend this product for the battery closure issue, the additional work and expense of buying things to give a “gator” basic flat ground traction. The battery life is pretty subpar as well. At this price point it was an epic letdown.

We were very happy with the size and quality of the John Deere battery ride on for our Grandson's as well as the choice for Daughter to pick up at a local WalMart or have it shipped which we chose for easy of the young family. Quality vendor WalMart as well as quality product. Very satiisfied in all aspects of our purchase. Best part of Christmas, surprising the kids!

Okay so far. A lot of the parts seem pretty cheap. My kids get stuck a lot due to it not being as powerful as I'd hoped, goes super slow going up hills and there's no real sturdy place to grab it to pull it. Every piece seems flimsy and the battery lasts an hour if we're lucky. But my kids do love it so far, I had another Peg Perego product a couple years ago and it only lasted a year so I hope for as much as this one costs, it lasts longer.

My grandparents had a previous Peg Perego that lasted almost 20 years, so when it came time to replace it I thought going with this would be good. However, like other reviews, this arrived missing a part. Once we ordered the part, and the work on assembling continued, we found one of the bolts was stripped, so my husband went to 3 different stores and ended up spending an additional $90 to get the tools to fix it. My husband, who is a mechanical engineer, has literally spent hours trying to assembly this and we're still not there. I hesitant to recommend it, but I'm guessing the cheaper brands are even worse. However, if you don't have someone in the family who is handy with mechanics, you may be in trouble. If you do decide to buy this, I would try to get it at least a month ahead of when you'd like it so you have time to order new parts, troubleshoot, and assemble.
