I can't recommend this truck enough. My son is almost 3 and adores it - his very own working cement mixer! He plays with it every single day. He also loves the 4x4 hauler in the Rugged Rigz. Actually, he loves every toy he owns from Little Tikes. They have great big parts, they come apart but go back together easily for a 3 year old, they have no sharp edges, they have easy working moving parts, and they are lots of fun. As the mother of an active almost-3-year old who ADORES trucks and trains and fire engines, I can tell you that these trucks are big, the wheels are soft (not loud on my hardwood floors!), there are no sharp edges to scrape or scratch my baby, they clean very easily, they are DURABLE (!!!!) and your child will not be able to destroy or mutilate them no matter what torture they put them through! They can go outside or inside. I love Little Tikes toys - they are a Mom's - and a little boys - dream come true.

I have 4 tractor/truck loving boys ages 2,4,5 and 6 and this truck is still going strong (outside even) after 6 months of abuse, I mean use. We bought several expensive Bruder trucks a couple years ago and they were all in pieces quickly. As far as my boys are concerned trucks are for working in the dirt not inside play. My now 6 yo tried to mix real cement in the now 5 yo's Bruder cement truck which of course did it in. When I saw this Little Tykes truck on the shelf at Walmart last December I knew it was the replacement I'd been searching for at a GREAT price. He loves it and while it is much dirtier now it is all in one piece still. The METAL Tonka's and the Rugged Riggz are the only trucks I allow anymore after all the tears over other trucks.

I love Little Tikes - I saw this truck and thought it would be a great addition to our "garage". All the way home my son wanted it out of the box so he could play with it, and it had all the signs of being a hit. However, as soon as it was out of the box, he discovered that he couldn't put anything INTO the mixer barrel. The opening is too small for any of the little toys he wanted to stow in it and drive around and "mix". He abandoned it not a half hour after it was opened, and it's going back to the store. I'll be looking around for a cement mixer that he can actually put stuff into.

My son loves this cement mixer - it is durable, works great on carpet, wooden floor and he enjoys playing with it in his sand box as well! It really adds fun to his sand box play! Well worth the money spent on it!!

It was oddly difficult to find a mixer to join the rest of our convoy, but this one is great! Very rugged and has survived the thrashings of my 2 very rugged boys.
