Toys and Games Reviews of MGA Little Tikes Wide Tracker Activity Walker
Customer Review: As many problems as perks...
Summary: 3 Stars
This was a gift, and I quickly noticed how dull most of the "activities" on it were, and that she couldn't really do them herself at 7 months (and doesn't really care anymore at 10 months). Here we are at 10 months, and she gets more out of it as we go. She really enjoys opening and closing the doors and "mailing" the letters, but I am SO SICK of having to re-attach the doors. Couldn't they have made them just a little sturdier? Also, when she was first cruising, she could not keep up with the walker, and would fall. She is just now able to keep up while walking behind it. However, keep an eye out, because if they try to pull up with it, it'll tip right over (hence some people's safety concerns). It really should be weighted a little bit better. Lauren does get a lot of use out of this toy, but if it were not a gift, I would probably choose a more durable walking toy.Customer Review: no flash, but good

If you are like me and SICK of toys that play music and have flashing lights, then this simple walker is for you. Because it folds up flat easily, we would take it to the park with our 10 month old son and set it up on the grass. My son would push it from one end of the park to the other end happily. And when he got tired, he would sit and post the letters (or whatever else he got his hands on), or play with the buttons. Yes, it occasionally tipped, but no harm occurred, and what toddler isn't going to go face down from time to time? And because it is so simple, I never worried about getting dirt, grass or sand in it - it washed off easily. But here is what really struck me - a kid at the park came up to us and started playing with the walker. After pushing the numbers (stickers really), he complained "this doesn't do anything". My son would disagree.Customer Review: Great toy for both my kids

I bought this for my 8 month old who is learning to walk. She absolutely loves walking around the house with this and gets the biggest smile on her face! For that alone, it's worth the $20. It is bright and cheerful looking. When my husband put it together I had him readjust the toys on the front (the moving bee and caterpillar) so they would be looser and easier for her to move back and forth. Yes, as everyone else said, the mailbox covers come off way too easily, but that isn't too important to us. My 2 year old is the one who pulls them off. I will try the suggestion from a previous reviewer of putting the top slot on the bottom. My 2 year old has had fun with this toy, too. She likes the novelty of pushing it around the house and then watching as her baby sister does it. I would definitely buy this again. :)Customer Review: fun for both my kids

I was a little leary of this after reading the other reviews, but I had already bought it, so I took it out of the box. You have to understand, I am not a logical thinker, and have a hard time putting anything together. But once I got past the fact that there were no written instructions, I figured it out pretty easily. Armed with only a philips screwdriver, I managed to get it together with only a few curses - all by myself!! even with my baby trying to climb all over it. He (nine months old) loves to walk with it - and it moves at just the right speed for a beginner. My four year old daughter will fight with him to play with it (is that good?). So, it's not one of the toys in the corner gathering dust because no one wants to play with it. I'm glad I bought it, and I love watching my son smile as he walks -all by himself.Customer Review: Tippy and cheap.

This walker is not a good one. The trouble started with assembly... for such a simple toy, there was SUCH a huge amount of assembley involved. Santa was not happy.
The doors pop off very easily. The "mail" was never once touched by my baby. The whole thing tips backward when a baby pulls up on it. (There's even a bar across the back designed for the baby to pull up on, encouraging babies to flip it over.) It very hard to get turned around.
I do like that the wheels have a few different settings, allowing it to go slower for beginners and faster as they get closer to walking. I also like that this walker collapes for easy storage. Although, the toy is advertised as collapsing for sitting play, and we never used it for that... it's too big, bulky and boring to be used in that way.
