I bought this for my 2 yr-old son, mainly for indoor use. Therefore I wanted a wagon small enough for use in an apartment, but big enough to be 'useful'. The Radio Flyer Little Red Wagon sounded too small, according to reviewers (according to them, too small even for toddlers). All others seemed too large. This one is just right.

Two minor issues, however:
(1) The handle is a bit long. But it's acceptable to me: it allows for the growth of the child. Therefore, it has 'longevity'. (Not so for the Radio Flyer Mini Classic because it's too mini?)
(2) The turning radius is large. This seems to be a safety feature. The front-wheel swivel is restricted so that the wheels are not turned so far as to make the wagon unstable. I feel that it's for the best. It will just make the 'driving' a little difficult. Well, a kid's gotta learn to deal with minor problems.

The instructions for assembly are not step-by-step. A single diagram with "exploded schematics" is your only guide. It seems that order of assembly is no big deal, though. I put it together without any problems.

In my opinion, this is the wagon for your toddler: it's the right size (for a longer term, too), and as durable as a Radio Flyer. I also like the price better than the RF's.

Regards,

we like the color of the wagon and it was easy to put together but the one thing we didnt like about this wagon was the turn ratio. the wagon when pulling will only turn slightly left and right. i guess this was a safty feature on these wagons but you would think they would have done something in the engineering of these wagons to allow for better turning. after you turn it slightly u have to lift the front up if you want to make any further of a turn and this is inconvient to say the least.on some of the pic's on the advertisement the way it show's the angle of the wheels that is about as far as they turn. you may want to consider a different brand.

We have a 21 month old grandson who loves to help. This wagon is perfect. He can pull it, ride in it or pull a stuffed animal friend in it. He loves it. We like how well made it is.

I wanted a wagon for my 18 month old grandson that was more his size than a 36 in. He loves it. The size is managable for him and the turning radius keeps it from tipping over.

The product is exactly what I was looking for and although there was a problem with delivery (not sellers fault), the seller credited our account part of price. Great experience!

The wagon was delivered on the exact date the order said it would be. The directions were not very clear. Basically it just came with a list of items included and a diagram of how to put it together but no real directions. However my husband and I were able to put it together in a short amount of time.

I got this wagon to carry my aging dog, and it is great. Well made, sturdy, and I like the slightly longer handle to fit my adult arms. Turning radius is not as good as the wagons I grew up with, but it is much safer this way. It is light enough to easily lift and turn it around if need be. Happy in all respects.

The wagon was more difficult to assemble than it appears, then the wheels didn't turn well. But overall it is a wagon and it serves its purpose well, as well as looking good while doing it.

Great quality and perfect for our two year old son. He loves carting around his toys in this wagon; is a great size for toddler rides, too! He also really enjoyed putting this together with his grandpa. Great product.
