I bought these skates for our 5-1/2-year-old daughter for Christmas. I love the sturdy hard shell that supports the legs and the wheels that don't go too fast for her beginner status. My only concern is the toe stop seems to be wearing quickly, but that can easily be replaced. I did a lot of comparison shopping and this was the best deal out there and I am not disappointed. Overall I'd recommend this as a great beginner skate for any girl.

I bought the J10-J13 size for my 5 year old daughter. She normally wears a size 11 shoe. These skates fit her perfectly and looked very comfortable. The lining is soft and it's nicely padded. They have a clasp closure, which makes getting them on and securing very easy for me. Adjusting the size was a snap, just push the button and the boot elongates.

The online photo does not do these skates justice. They are much prettier in person. It's an excellent buy.

My daughter wears a size 13T - 1 street shoe, and the smallest setting on these skates fits her just fine. They are heavily padded on the inside so she can slip them on without socks for use in the driveway with no discomfort. She has taken them to the skating rink and they also performed well there. They are chunkier than the rental quad skates from the rink (you know, the ones you used to rent as a child), but she skated for three hours with no problems. I think that these provide more ankle support than the rentals.

I bought the J10-13 size for my daughters 5th birthday, she normally wears a size 9-10 shoe, and the skates fit perfectly on their smallest setting, and have plenty of room for her to grow in the next few years. The adjustment to the boot size is tough, not something your kid will be able to change on their own, just push a button and slide the boot, but it is a little tough to slide into that smallest setting, but once in place the boot locks in place good, and won't be going anywhere until you want to make it bigger or smaller. Great skate, sturdy, plenty of support, good wheels and bearings for a beginner skate, and being a skating enthusiest myself, I think the wheels and bearings function very well, so your young skater won't be fighting to try to get the wheels to roll, and will glide with ease once they are accustom to skating. For the price it is a very well put together skate, that will grow with your young skater so they will get plenty of use out of them before they grow out of them completely, and with how fast kids feet grow, the adjustment is much welcome, and doesn't cheapen the overall skate at all. Upon searching for skates for my daughters birthday, I found that our local retail stores don't carry much for skates for little kids, if at all. I was able to find this brand at Target, but only in a boys skate. I was a little weary about buying a skate online, but with no other option I went with this skate, and was very pleased once I had it in person, and was able to see my daughter in them. The size J10-13 should work for kids whose shoe size is between a 9-13, and I couldn't find a sizing chart for this item, so that is good to know if your looking to get some for your young one. Overall, 5 star product, my daughter and me love them!

My 5 year-old daughter absolutely loves these skates. They give her a lot of stability. They are very easy to adjust. She just slips them on and off she goes! I think that she will be using these skates for years to come...they are very durable. Also, she loves the pink color!

I just bought these skates for my 6 year old daughter. She was so excited to have "big girl" skates. We put them on and everything seemed great. The adjustment button functioned properly and the straps were great. Then she started to try to skate. She pushed off and went about 4 inches. The wheels barely turn. So i took them off her and tried to adjust the nuts holding the wheels on thinking they were too tight and binding the wheels. They weren't. I took a couple of the wheels off completely, held the center spindle and spun the wheel. It turned 1/2 turn and stopped. I thought maybe they needed to be greased a little so i put a little Tri-Flow on the bearings. It didn't make any difference. They are going back to Amazon today and taking my daughter to a local sports store to find her some real skates that really skate.

These skates are perfect for fast-growing feet. They give good support and kids can easily tighten them themselves. My 7 year-old daughter loves them. The wheels roll smoothly. A child will probably need help making the skates bigger or smaller.

My four year old daughter loves these skates. They are high quality and certainly worth the money. They adjust to growing feet. She is just learning to skate so the quad wheels have been good for her, more stabile. I would recommend this product to others.

These skates work well for my kids, who seem to change shoe sizes weekly.

This is a pretty good skate. This was purchased as a birthday gift for my 5 year old. Initially, she couldn't get the skates on by herself, but now she is getting the hang of it. The skates themselves roll quite well, but the wheels and brake got dinged up pretty fast, even though we were on a smooth, recently-paved road. I like the fact that they will grow with her. My daughter's foot measures to be 9 1/2, so the skate is a bit on the big side; however, this didn't seem to bother her as the inside liner fit her foot well. All in all, I would give this skate a high rating. It's just too bad about the big dings/scratches on the wheels and brake. They just don't make plastic like they used to! lol
