We gave me daughter this bike for her second birthday and she loved that it was Elmo. That is the only reason I gave this bike one star. If I could give it zero I would.
Cons:
First off when she got the bike she was unable to pedal it herself. As another poster said it sits pretty high. So, she wasn't able to use the bike till closer to two and a half.
Second, the music is so loud and annoying. I have two kids and normally can tune most things out but this is impossible. I finally just had to take the batteries out since there is no volume control.
Third, this thing tips easily. It is not sturdy at all.
Fourth, after only a few months of use this thing it squeaks horribly! Not to mention one of the pedals continues to fall off.
Fifth, I loved the idea of the handle to help steer while this kids are younger. That is actually one of the features that drew me to this bike. Unfortunately, the handle has so much give you really have no control at all.
Overall, I am very unhappy with this bike. Kids love it because it is Elmo but really that is the only positive to this bike. If I were you save your money and keep looking.

My son loves this tricycle. Hes got it for Christmas when he was 14 months old, and I cant seem to keep him off of it and he is now 18 months old. He loves the music it plays. It was a little hard to put it together, but it is really well built and couldnt ask for a better bike for him.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I completely agree with the review from "mommy of 2". I wish she had posted that before I bought this piece of garbage. I wish I had bought Fisher-Price Rock, Roll 'N Ride Trike instead.
I bought this for my daughter's 2nd birthday one month ago. She, and all the other 2 year olds at her birthday party loved it. Other parents said that they wanted to get one for their 2 year old. But there is no volume control or off button for the annoying music. Only 2 song choices, depending on if you hit the right arrow or the left, and one song is very long. The music got annoying very quickly.
After a few days of this tricycle sitting in our living room with 2 toddlers playing on it. We noticed that it tipped very easily. So on top of the annoying music, now we had crying toddlers.
Then yesterday, I took it outside for the first time. I put my daughter on it and pushed her 2 blocks down the street to the baby-sitter's house. I thought she would enjoy the ride. Well... she did for most of the ride. But it squeaked loudly the duration of the trip. It almost tipped over while I pushed it with the long handle several times. And I couldn't steer the bike with the handle. I had to bend over repeatedly to grab the handlebars to steer it, which defeated the purpose of buying a trike with a long handle for parents.
The worse part was that there isn't a place for her to set her feet except on the pedals which she can't really reach. So when I stopped the trike, the pedals smacked her in the foot, and she got hurt several times. When I got home, I threw it in the garage.
It's also a pain to assemble, and I usually enjoy assembling complicated things.
Don't waste your money on this junk. I would give it 0 stars if possible.

This was an amazing gift for my nephew! He loved it... just be careful of the annoying song that plays every time the tricycle moves.

Good trike, lovable by any child...small hiccup on the assembly
