So much fun. Please set aside 1-2 hours (depending on assembly skill level). My four year old loves it. It is sturdy enough to hold 9 year old son with 4 year old. It is two speed and can easily go from grass to straw natural terrain to rocks. Very well made. Highly recommend and it is worth the price.

Purchased this for my son on his 3rd birthday about 3 months ago and he loves it. We have a large lot that he rides all over the place. Lots of power. I had to put around 40-50 pounds in the back to get good traction so the tires won't spin on hills or wet grass. I just used a an old tool set. He rides this every day and we even hooked up a little red wagon to the back so he can haul weeds and garden tools for us. I can't imagine older kids being able to fit in this thing. Perfect for 3-5 year olds.

My daughter got this Power Wheel for her fourth birthday. It drives great in our church parking lot on on smooth concrete. It our yard, however, it often gets stuck. Our yard is very flat, so this is disappointing. This was a very expensive gift, but my daughter doesn't want to use it often because of how little traction the plastic wheels get.

Granted, we have only had this a couple of days, but from what I can tell thus far, it is not super fabulous. This is our first time owning a Power Wheels type of vehicle, so maybe I should not be writing a review, but I just expected more out of it. Our yard is generally flat without hills, but is not super smooth if that makes sense. My 4 year old has a difficult time getting over certain minor "humps" in our yard when it seems as something like this should be easily able to make it. The overall appearance of it is cute. It seems cheaply made though and for $400+ it just seems as though it should be a bit better quality. I feel like if my kids run into something (which is bound to happen the minute I take my eye off of them - my daughter is still learning how to drive it), it will crack. It is difficult to find a solid place for an adult to grip if they want to move it or adjust it if the kiddos get stuck some place. The age rating on it does not seem appropriate. My it is probably ideal for my 4 year old, but I cannot imagine her being able to fit in this at age 7. She is average size for her age - not taller nor heavier. I think she might be able to use it next summer and MAYBE squeeze into it as she is turning 6, but that will be pushing it. Perhaps I will have to come back and adjust my review as we use it more, but this is my observation so far. I just feel like for $400+, we should have received more for our money. The wild thing is, after reading numerous reviews, this Power Wheels like ride on was one of the top rated. Hmmm. We will see.

We are giving this to out granddaughter tomorrow so will rate again after a few weeks. I just wanted to share a couple of complications we had in assembly. We had trouble getting the clear plastic windshield in the black frame. The top of the black rim just didn't want to open up to accept the clear windshield. We heated the black rim with a hair dryer and it worked. Also instruction number 25 doesn't mention that you need to tip the unit on its' side and push the green bed lift up so that it aligns with the red strap and lift bed. Hope this helps someone some struggles

My husband and I gave this to our 4 year old little boy for christmas this year (2014) and he LOVES it. He loves to load and unload firewood with Daddy and help clean up the backyard with Mommy. The only slight downside I would say is the traction. It spins a lot, when in grass or any slight incline, but the nice thing is that it is super light so even my son can get out and push it to where he needs it to be so it will stop slipping. My son wished it had working lights on it but maybe when he gets a real tractor one day he can have that. We love it!

This John Deere wasn't designed for the country. My son spends more time sitting with the tires spinning on the grass and on gravel then he does riding around. This product stinks because of the cheaply made tires. I would not reccomend this product to anyone and wish i never spent 400.00 for it. It was defintely a waste of money!

shop around found the john deere gator box said 3-8 years of age my son is 4 years old hardly fits my 6 year old daughter has to ride by her self and sit in the middle and still hardly fits call peg perego and they said to bad so sad !!! will work for you if you have small kids that don't grow

Product is great. Do not buy in store. We bought a display drove an hour home it was broken. Drove back another day 2 hrs round trip got one in box got home missing steering wheel charger and other pieces to dump bed. Had to order online to get correct one untouched

My grandson only rode 5 or 6 times last summer . We put up and this year the battery is no good. The battery is $69.99 for this toy. You can't use just any 12 volt battery it has to be the one that has the wire on the battery to connect to the vehicle . the gear shift also slides . Well built other than that. The plastic tires will not do anything but spin if your not on flat ground.
