This review is from: Radio Flyer Sport Coupe Red (Toy)
My son received this coupe for his 2nd birthday and I've been unable to get him out of it since then. The radio plays three short tunes, the blinkers (on the inside of the car) blink, and he has a horn. His favorite things, however, are the door and the steering wheel. The "floor board" slides forward if they want their feet up, or back if they want to "drive" themselves around. And, the handle extends to a nice height, even for tall parents, so you aren't forced to bend over in order to push them around. The only downside I see is the wheels are - as with a lot of push/pull toys - two pieces of plastic snapped together to form the wheel, so you can already see where much wear on them on outside surfaces would cause the wheels to crack in half. That is a downside, since, due to the nice handle in the back, it would be great to use outdoors when I go on walks, but I'm really afraid it will shorten the "life" of the toy.

This review is from: Radio Flyer Sport Coupe Red (Toy)
My son just got this for his first birthday and it was the hit of the party! He obviously can't push himself around in it yet, but he LOVES to sit in in and have us push him around the house. The handle is adjustable, so his big brothers can push him around and then we can extend the handle and me or my husband can push him without breaking our backs. I am looking forward to using it on walks this summer! The only thing I wish was different, is that I wish there was a seatbelt inside. My little guy wants to stand on the seat all the time!

This review is from: Radio Flyer Sport Coupe Red (Toy)
I bought the Radio Flyer Sport Coupe a couple of months ago when my son was about 7mths old. Honestly, I initially was going to purchase this car for looks! But after reading reviews and comparing prices. I decided that for the length of time that he could use this car, it's worth the extra $$. Plus it's way nicer looking than anything else out there. As soon as it arrived I started putting it together. Instructions are fairly easy and pretty fool proof. My son just sat in his walker waiting patiently, but the second I put him in he grabbed the wheel and had a huge smile on his face. Prior reviews mentioned the car not having a seatbelt, but it does now and yes you do need it! This car was a lifesaver over the Summer! I also have an 8 year old that plays softball and we are ALWAYS at the park. Now the baby gets to cruise around the fields in style and I don't have a fussy baby stuck in a stroller. PLUS! 8 & 9 year old girls love pushing little babies around! The reason I said you need the seatbelt is because of the side door that has the ability to open and close. He was not buckled in and leaned over the side trying to reach for something and kerplunk! He rolled out! Luckily onto carpet since we were indoors, so he was fine! Also, some people complained about the wheels. They are plastic and do not have any traction, but we've done just fine at parks over dirt, grass, hills, concrete..etc.
Now...my only complaint! And I'm not sure how this happened, but from one day to the next the left front wheel started to wobble. I noticed the part where the bearing is may be a little loose. Not sure if this just happened on it's own or if the older kids who thought it would be fun to push their 3 year old little sister a little too hard around the park did it. Either way, I need to see if I could tighten the wheel. All it does is wobble, the car still works fine and we are still using it.
So other than that! Love this car! As a matter of fact, I used it earlier this evening while my daughter took her dog for a walk. It gets "oohs and aahs" from onlookers everytime.
