Sturdy, light and a good start to riding a bike.

.so far I've been happy with this bike for teaching a preschooler to balance and begin getting the hang of riding a bicycle. One concern I have is that the ties seem to be made of a very dense foam with plastic coating, so I'm unsure of how these will wear in the long run. The upside is you don't have to air-up any tires.

Pros
  • Great little bike to start out, girls are two and going on two. They loved them. Bought two!!
Cons
  • Returning the bike because the seat does not raise up as high as the description stated.

Decent but not great

Plastic pieces are difficult to snap in, yet the snap out if you bump it. Has a red button and speaker, but when we opened the panel to place batteries inside there was no wiring! The bike itself is good and my son loves it, but my husband and I were really unhappy when assembling it.

Pros
  • The bike's no-pedal design means that kids can focus on balance, rather than pedaling
Cons
  • May require more supervision for safety compared to other outdoor toys

Decent bike for price.

I got this bike for my 4 year old. She loves riding it in our yard. The wheels are not real though. They are hard plastic. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • This bike is designed with young children in mind, making it easy for them to use
Cons
  • May be more challenging to balance for children with weaker cores or legs

the daredevil loved it

I bought this bike for two of my nephews who are about a year apart in age. The younger one loves it - he's the daredevil between the two. The other one is the cautious type and I'm not sure he'll ever take to this thing. But I love the concept and the bikes themselves are great. Seem no less likely to teach balance and bike riding than the more expensive brands.

Pros
  • This bike is designed to be safe, ensuring that parents can relax while their children play
Cons
  • May not promote enough environmental awareness or appreciation in play

A little bigger than I thought

It is very lightweight and easy to put together but it's a little too tall for my 2 year old and it's not as sturdy as I thought it would be. but over all I'm happy with my purchase

Pros
  • The JOYSTAR bike is a great way to get kids off their screens and into the great outdoors
Cons
  • May be less fulfilling for children who prefer competitive play

Perfect for a beginner!

My 4 yr old granddaughter just received this for her 4th birthday. Having never even ridden or even balanced on a bike before this one was perfect. She was so excited and is enjoying it so much.

Pros
  • The nylon frame is both lightweight and durable, making it easy for kids to handle
Cons
  • May be less efficient for transportation purposes than traditional bikes

Fun Training Toy: my feedback

Got this bike for my daughter's 2nd birthday. She is interested in riding it but usually stops after a short period of time as she is a little young for this bike and needs some help riding. Within a couple of months, I suspect she'll be able to spend a lot more time maneuvering independently.

Pros
  • The bike's adjustable seat means that it can be used by multiple children in the same family
Cons
  • Limited adjustability may not accommodate children with physical disabilities or injuries

Great Bikes! best in my review

Love these bikes. Bought the ones that look like dirt bikes for my boys' birthdays. They absolutely love them. Costomer service is also great with the seller. Would definitely recommend and buy from them again!

Pros
  • The bike's handlebars are easy for toddlers to grip
Cons
  • May not be suitable for children with disabilities or special needs

Great beginner bike

It was very easy to assemble. So far we are really liking it, , its not to heavy for my toddler, but it will take him some time to learn how to ride it. The tires material does worry me so we will stay away from gravel.

Pros
  • This balance bike is easy for children to use, even if they haven't ridden a bike before
Cons
  • May not provide enough variation of resistance for strength training

My 2 year old loves it!

It was easy to assemble and the adjustable seat will let our 2 year old use it for several years as he grows. After about 2 hours he could balance and lift both feet off the ground once he got a little speed. I was a little nervous about quality but we've had it for a week and it's been solid so far. The wheels were the other concern but I've grown to like them. They feel light but are tough and can't be punctured, our son rode it on a gravel road and it had decent traction.

Pros
  • Deduct one start because it not very strong. Otherwise my kid loves it
Cons
  • May not provide enough physical exercise for active children

Not easy to assemble

Poor quality control. There were bits of weld sticking out in the frame tubing which stopped the seat post slotting in. Had to file them down to get it to fit.

Pros
  • The bike's adjustable seat means that it can be used for years to come
Cons
  • Limited adjustability may not accommodate children of different heights and weights

Great customer service

One of the parts was defective and I contacted customer service. They truly went above and beyond as they sent me a new bike. Thank you Nancy from customer service! Thisis a great company and great bike my twins love it.

Pros
  • The JOYSTAR bike requires minimal assembly, making it easy for parents to set up
Cons
  • Limited handling capabilities may make it difficult to maneuver in tight spaces

Too small for my average size 3 yrs old

Had to put the seat up as high as it would safely go for my 3 yr old. She might get 6 months on it. But she does like it. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • The adjustable seat means that this bike can grow with your child
Cons
  • May be less durable than other outdoor toys

Missing parts: my feedback

It was missing parts and provided wrong parts for the wheel bases. The wheel shook back and forth so we returned it due to it not being able to be properly road and increasing the chance of injuries

Pros
  • The bike's durable design means that it can withstand rough play
Cons
  • May be less beneficial for children's physical development than other outdoor toys

Was a little too tall for 2 year old

Overall looks like a great bike. Just a bit too tall for my 2 year old but I’m sure he’ll grow into it great! That's my feedback!

Pros
  • The height and sturdiness is worth it . Very good buy
Cons
  • May not be suitable for taller or heavier children

Missing a bolt! - my new review

I think this would have been very sturdy and easy to assemble if we had the final bolt that holds the wheel in place! Once we find one that fits, I’m sure it will be a great bike for my niece.

Pros
  • This balance bike is a great alternative to traditional training wheels
Cons
  • May not be as exciting for children who prefer adventurous play

Damaged on arrival in my review

Let’s be honest, this is a gift for a two year old so it’s going to get banged up almost immediately, but I was annoyed to see that this product was delivered with scuffs and dings before my child even got her hands on it.I had no problem assembling it and I appears to be an otherwise good product aside from the damage that it arrived with.

Pros
  • The bike's lightweight design makes it easy for parents to carry when their child gets tired
Cons
  • May be less durable than other outdoor toys made from metal or wood

Great for the little ones

This bike is perfect for my 3 year old. She loves it and is getting really good at it. The only think i didn't love about it was the tires. The feel like hard plastic. I would have liked a real tire!

Pros
  • ❤ASSEMBLE AND WARRANTY - The bike comes with basic assembly tool, normally takes 20 minutes to set up. The JOYSTAR balance bike also comes with a limited lifetime manufacturing warranty.
Cons
  • May not be as engaging for children who prefer active outdoor activities

Great value and easy to assemble

This balance bike is very easy to assemble with the provided wrenches. It only takes about 5 minutes. While my daughter is only 2, I wanted to get her used to the idea of straddling a bike and learning to balance on one. I like the quick release seat and tires that don't require air.

Pros
  • This balance bike is a great way to help your child transition to a traditional bike
Cons
  • May not withstand harsh weather conditions as well as other outdoor toys

This thing is very low quality and missing parts

Right out of the box this was bent and damaged due to the low quality materials used to build this bike. Not only are the materials poor quality but the welds. Oh man the welds. A blind man whos deaf could weld better! No attempt made to finish this product in anyway. There is slag all over the tubes and instead of taking 5 seconds to clean this up they gave it a crappy one coat rattle can job. I was furious when I opened the box. My kid was excited to play with it so I spent an hour bending…

Pros
  • The balance bike is a great way to help children develop their confidence and independence
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use on wet or slippery surfaces
