Toys and Games Reviews of Little Tikes Mulching Mower
Customer Review: Not for grass
Summary: 4 Stars
My son was so excited when I pulled this out of the box at age 15 months. He proceeded to "mow" the driveway for an hour. Then he decided to head for the grass.
Problem- this mower is obviously not intented for grass. It just stops dead & won't push in even the shortest of grass (the wheels are just too small & it's too low to the ground) I would put him back on the drive & he would run it to the grass & cry that it would not go across it like daddy with his mower. He did this about a zillion times.
It's now been cleaned up & made an inside only (basement) toy (to spare mommies nerves) He really loves it inside (now that he has gotten over the emotional trauma of not being able to mow real grass with it :)
Customer Review: Guess I'm the lone dissenting opinion
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this mower for my son's first birthday after reading all the great reviews here. It was very disappointing. My baby has absolutely zero interest in it, but I was disappointed even before showing it to him. It sounded so neat in the reviews, but it's just a cheap piece of plastic junk. I can't understand why it is so darn expensive! Ditto to the reviewer who wrote that it cannot be used as a walker. Unless you have a VERY proficient walking child, your baby is going to fall on top of this mower because it is extremely lightweight. It did nothing to hold my baby's interest. I'm going to keep it around for another week and if he still isn't interested, it goes bye-bye!Customer Review: I prefer the Bubble Mower
Summary: 3 Stars
I ordered this for my daughter and nephew for Christmas. When my older kids were young, we went through 2 Fisher Price Bubble Mowers (the first was a garage sale toy). I decided to order this one since it didn't use bubbles and I was worried about the mess my big kids would make since they are now old enough to use the bubble part (we never used it before). My daughter plays with it some but she doesn't enjoy it nearly as much as her older siblings did-it's bigger and heavier so she has a harder time manuvering it. In hind-site, I would order the Bubble Mower and just not use the bubble part-it seems to be more fun for the little ones.Customer Review: The noise can be "turned off"
Summary: 3 Stars
Our son got this for his first birthay. He can't walk yet, but is very happy pushing the mower with our help. Unfortunately, after some time he gets too frustrated with it because he pushes the handle down and probably doesn't want the mower to fall but it does, of course.
Anyway, we thought that the noise is bothering him (was certanly bothering us), so we unscrewed all the screws and removed the balls and the springs that are to blame for the noises. Now the toy is very quiet but still frustrating for our son :) He is below the recomended age so we'll try introducing it again in 5 months.
Customer Review: Hard to push
Summary: 1 Stars
My daughter recieved this mower for her second birthday. She was excited about being able to "help" me cut the grass. I don't know if the handle is too tall or just at the wrong angle, but she is unable to push it on the grass. As soon as she would start pushing, the mower's back wheels would come off the ground and it would tip forward. She's three now, and still has trouble with it on the grass. I have watched our friend's children try it also, with the same result. The mower seems to be well made, but just hasn't seen much use. Not much fun pushing a lawn mower when your not on the lawn.
