We bought this toy, along with the similar rocket version for our son's birthday. I was thrilled to finally have found a "big jet" toy. However, within hours of opening, the back wheel had fallen off. The wheel on the rocket came off as well. Thinking it a fluke, we took both toys back to the retailer and received new ones. AGAIN, the wheels came off in a short period of time. This time I called Fisher price and explained the situation. I sent them the toy to examine, and received a refund. I have heard no feedback from FP regarding the obvious safety issue.
This toy is marked for ages 3 and up. That is too young an age group, as both wheels are smaller in diameter then a toilet paper tube, and thus fail the consumer product safety standards. My child was luckily supervised during its use, or the wheels might have ended up somewhere else. AVOID!

My son and I have so much fun making Big Jet go as fast as he can down the hallway. If you tilt it up on it's rear wheels it will stay like that while it's moving, spin around, and keep going straight like it's doing a wheelie. So cute!! It got a lot of bad reviews, people said it fell apart after a week. But my son's bday was 2 weeks ago and so far so good. Of course now we can't find him because he probably rolled or got kicked underneath something. He's hiding - that sneaky Big Jet.

The back wheels do fall off, but what are you going to do? My boy loves big jet and we ended up buying 2 of them as we thought we lost the original. He is now "other big jet".. What kid plays with it by rolling it anyway, most kids use it to fly throught he air...take in the bath...bury it in mud...bury it in sand...that jet can take a beating!

My son loves Little Einsteins so I got big jet for his birthday. I must say I was a little disappointed for the price I paid for it. The push button is not very functional especially for my 3 year old.

What a disapointing product! It fits in the palm of my 3 year old son's hand and it is remarkably small. It resembles a cheap toy you could buy in the airport only 4 times as expensive. Durability is questionable at best. We may have it for the rest of the evening. I'm underwhelmed. My son was also surprised to see what came out of the box. The anticipation was the greatest part of this purchase.

We were excited to receive Big Jet and our son was so excited also. First I was shocked that the thing was so small. Costing as much as the entire Pat Pat Rocket you would think it was similar size or quality with some electronic functions. It is just a cheap wind up toy that works similar to the free McDonald's happy meal toys. You push on the engine a few times and it winds the wheels up and then it will take off but not in any kind of a straight line. In similar reviews I have read the wheels break and come off easily which ruins any kind of rolling for the toys future. Our wheels broke and came off in about one weeks time without any vigorous play. All in all I cannot believe I spent so much money on such a cheap product and will be reading reviews and dimensions much closer before my next purchase. Spend your money on different model aircraft. It will be bigger and more durable and as long as it is blue your child will love it much more than this item.
