Toys and Games Reviews of Radio Flyer Classic Walker Wagon
Customer Review: Wonderful concept---watch for choking hazard!
Summary: 1 Stars
My son received this wagon for his 1st birthday; he played with it constantly---mostly on a carpeted floor. It certainly helped him learn to walk---the resistance feature was my primary attraction. However, after 8 days of normal play, the tip of one of the resistance pegs (the device that "pushes back" and prevents the wagon from flying out from under them) broke off---my son found it before we did and had it in his mouth---it was a piece 1 cm in length and .4 cm in width---PERFECT for little mouths! The very next day the tip of the other resistance peg broke off!! I have been in touch with Radio Flyer and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. There has been no resolution yet, although Radio Flyer is suggesting I had an isolated defect (I'd be more likely to believe this if only ONE of the pegs had broken--but both?!). The resistance pegs are crafted from hard plastic that can (did) become brittle; it seems to me that a hard rubber composition would have been a safer alternative. I don't expect toys to last forever, but I do expect that they won't present a choking hazard. This wagon is recommended for children ages 1-4. Watch your little ones carefully when they play with this wagon!!!!!Customer Review: Great First Wagon
Summary: 5 Stars
We have experienced three of these with our grandchildren, each family having one! They are sturdy wagons that take a real beating. Start with the kids being pushed around in them, then they crawl in and out. Then they learn to stand next to it. Then the big moment, using it as a "walker" taking those first steps while pushing it and screaming with joy at their new-found independence. Then it gets loaded with precious possessions that must be kept at hand! And then it becomes a doll carriage.
And then a baby brother/sister comes along and they get to enjoy carting around the younger sibling and, eventually, teaching them how to use it.
Whel all is finished these don't tend to be thrown away. They are given to friends with first kids and, to our amazement, cleaned up, disassembled and carefully packed away to be saved for the next generation!
Since they do not have a handle to bang around and they do not need to be steered they are perfect for in-home use.
Yeah, this is a review for one just purchased from Amazon (five stars there, too!), but it is also a review of 10+ years experience with the wagons!
Customer Review: The best walker that's not too expensive for the value it delivers
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this for our daughter when she was 8 month old for her to walk. We had a chicco 3-in-1, but it was too light that my daughter failed several times trying to pull herself up. This walker is very sturdy and heavy enough for my daughter to pull herself up without falling with the walker. We have both hardwood and carpeted floors. The wagon works fine on both surfaces. She started walking by herself 3 weeks after we bought her the wagon. Now she's 13 months old, and still enjoy playing with the walker. She drags it around to collect any interesting items she finds around the house. Sometimes, we find our TV remotes, camera, thermoeter, empty bottles in her wagon. Right now, her favorite way to play with this wagon is to sit in there and have her daddy push her around.
I don't have any problem with any broken piece or any part fallen off as described by some of the reviewers. My daughter is not very gentle, and she likes to take things apart. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I always like Radio Flyer stuff. I will definitely recommend this wagon to parents who want to purchase a walker for their little ones.
Customer Review: The best walker toy there is!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just bought this walker for my 9 month old daughter. She had just started pulling herself up on furniture, and she had a habit of pushing my kitchen chairs around. I figured it was time for a push toy! But as a mom of 5, I knew that most push toys are made of plastic, and are completely unsturdy. When I found this Radio Flyer Deluxe Walker Wagon and read some reviews, I knew I found the walker for us. My daughter is already pulling herself up to stand with the walker. It doesn't tip at all! She has taken a few steps with it, but right now prefers to push it from her knees, or be given a ride in it.
Someone said that the basket capacity is only big enough for a large 18 month old. Well, my son is 5, and very big for his age (about the size of the average 7 yr old). He sat in the walker wagon WITH THE SIDES IN PLACE. Yeah, he had to bend his knees, but he fit. However, I told him to get out as I don't know what the weight limit of this toy is. I plan to call the company to find out.
We've only had this toy a week, but I can tell that it will last a lifetime!

Summary: 5 Stars
This toy was a birthday present for our son when he turned 1. This was a FANTASTIC toy for him. He wasn't walking yet, but he could easily walk behind this wagon. It wasn't too hard to push, but also wasn't too easy to push where it would go too fast. It goes just the right speed for him and he can control how slow or fast he wants to go pretty easy. He also loves to load stuff into the wagon and push it somewhere and unload it (and then do it all over again of couse). He also can ride in it. I also have a 9 year old son who loves to push our 1 year old in it. The side rails come out very easily (but not too easily for our little guy) so you can remove them if you want the wagon to be low enough for a smaller baby to pull up on. Our little guy is now 14 months old and he loves to climb in and out of the wagon portion with different toys and sit in it playing. It is a very versatile toy and has held up in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend this toy to any parent looking for a sturdy walker that can be used after you're little one can walk!
