Hi all

I have been looking at getting this www.toysrus.co.uk/Toys-R-Us/Bikes-and-Rideons/Trikes/Steer-and-Grow-Pronto-Trike-with-Canopy(0029549 ) for my dd who has just turned 1.
I would love to hear from anyone who has used it, is it any good? It has just been increased from £80 to £100 (WTF?!) and I can't find any reviews on the net argh!

I tried this one out in toys r us and it was awful, really hard to steer. I went for the smart trike, its much better.

thanks, the steering is uber important as I'll be walking older ds to school which is a good 10 min walk. So the smart trike (I'm going to look for that in a min) was just better in the steering stakes?

Yes definatly, i tried every trike in toys r us and it was the easiest to steer, my ds had it for his 1st birthday and hes now 2.5 and its still easy to push even though hes obviously a lot heavier now.

did you get it from Argos?

x post!

Oh also the smart trike is cheaper, toys r us and argos do them in blue or pink.

check out kettler, online google it..
for that price you have pick of the bunch

I see they don't have it in TRU anymore. I will follow your recommendation and go for the Argos one though, fingers crossed! Oh and it's £68, a big difference!

Hope you like it. My ds loves his

BLM, do you find the seat to be small?

No its fine and my ds is now 2.5 and quite a big boy and fits on it fine.

Great, thanks for the advice. Ooh I'm excited, I'm going to get it tomorrow. Is that lame?! Ah well, I'm sure she will be excited too once she gets a go

Hey dont worry i get excited about getting new things for the kids as well

I got it for £40 in Mothercare, what a result! It's lovely

Bargain!! Glad you like it
