User Submitted Little Tikes Cozy Push & Ride Coupe Reviews (cont...)Date: 2007-01-02 A fun car for the little ones I purchased this for my grandson at age 20 months and he loves to be pushed but being walking age he also likes to explore on his own. What I like about this car is that the handle for pushing is the correct length for an adult to prevent bending and it can be removed as well as the "bottom" of the car when the child is older and want to "ride" by themselves. The doors open and close and my grandson who is now 2 still loves it and I can see him still wanting to use this when he is at least 3 or maybe older. Great for getting them outside for fresh air and great exercise for me! I would definitely purchase again. Date: 2006-08-30 Fun for all Prior to purchasing this sweet ride, my son had the ridden many a mile in the standard Little Tikes Cozy Coupe. After suffering through days of back pain, I realized their had to be a better way...well, this is it. This car had 2 distinct advantages over the cozy coupe: 1) The removable push handle..saves the old back. Also allows me to push for longer periods of time, and this has all but replaced our stroller. 2) Removable floorboard...although my son wanted to be pushed in the cozy coupe, he would sometimes forget to lift his feet, thus scraping his toes and causing many "ouchies"...removable floorboard prevents this in push mode. He can always remove when ready to push himself in Flintstone mode. Bottom line: This vehicle is more versatile than the cozy coupe. There's nothing the cozy coupe can do that this vehicle can't. Date: 2005-10-26 Great toy but no seat belt: i found a solution! I bought this for my son when he was 9 months old. He too got bored with the stroller. I loved the built in cup holder! The only problem was that since the floorboard was in he would try to stand up. There was no seat belt to secure him in. We found a way to fix the problem: We cut off the staps off an old grocery shopping cart and bolted them into the back of the car. This completely worked and was a life safer. So if anyone needs a seat belt try that. Date: 2005-04-11 The Cons... The assembly instructions are vague at points. Here are some pointers so you don't make the same mistakes I did: 1) Put the tire stickers on BEFORE you put steel axle through! 2) Be careful how you put on the front wheels. I got left and right wrong and had to diassemble and redo. B/c of this, one piece broke but it came with an extra so I was lucky. 3) Part "N" is not a screw, it's the bigger plastic orange piece. 4) There are 2 ways to set the door. One is to nail only 1 screw so you can slide and lock door. The other is to nail 2 screws so your child can open/close as they please. As I said, they give you only visual instructions so you get confused at some points, but if you follow my tips you can do it yourself in no time. Oh and my 17 month old son LOVES his new car. Date: 2004-09-05 Not for very long walks I bought this toy as an alternative to my stroller for taking walks around the neighborhood. My son (I bought this for him at 17 months) would get bored in the stroller, so I thought this would be fun. Well, he does really like this car, but there are some issues with it. First, there is no safety belt, so your child can attempt to stand whenever the desire moves them. Second, when pushing him on cement it is extremely loud (my husband wanted me to stop using it for this reason alone--I cannot overemphasize how loud this thing is! We were concerned with hearing loss). Last, although there is a cup holder on the inside for baby, it would be nice to have some type of holder on the exterior for the parents--to hold a beverage, or keys or something. If the wheels were redesigned to make this toy quieter, an exterior cup holder added, and especially a safety belt added I would give this 5 stars. For now, I give it 3.
