Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Scooters are beloved by kids of all ages, but true young-uns need a scooter designed just for them. Enter the Kettler Scooter Skiddy, which is recommended for children between the ages of 18 months and 4 years. Unlike most scooters, the Scooter Skiddy actually has two wheels in the rear rather than one, adding stability for the average tyke. At the same time, the scooter's heavy-duty footplate is both extra wide--the better to accommodate a young child's unsteady foot--and slip-resistant. The end result is a great scooter for developing a child's all-important balance and coordination. And cost-conscious parents will love the eight-position adjustable handlebar that grows with your child. Thanks to the handlebar, you won't need to give away the scooter just because little Sabine experienced a two-month growth spurt. And finally, the scooter includes a rear footbrake for slowing down. The Scooter Skiddy is backed by a three-year warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Assembly advice, June 3, 2007

It's a decent product, but overpriced.

The main reason I'm writing this review is to share an assembly trick. You are instructed to slide the two yellow rubber handles onto the ends of the handlebar. The problem is that they're too tight to go on. The instructions suggest soaking them in warm water to expand them. I tried several times with increasingly hot water (heated on the stove), but it hardly helped. The only thing that worked was to put the handlebar in the freezer for an hour. Then the rubber handles slipped on with no problem.

This was easy to assemble and steers very smoothly. It's perfect for us because our older boy (3.5 years) can use it to the max, while the younger one (1.5 years) is learning to ride it with assistance. By the time the older one is ready to move on to a more advanced model or a bike, the little guy will be ready to take over.

My 3 year old loves this scooter!!! Even with his enormous size 12 feet he's able to ride this scooter with his friends on the road. This was the perfect birthday present for him. It's built so well, only problem was the plastic hubcaps fell off almost immediately, but who needs them really anyway?
