Weak very weak good for me

Very disappointed with this toy. Got it assembled it, let it sit charging for 24 hours. My son got in it and almost immediately was frustrated because it would not move. The motor cuts out. I had my older daughter verify the issue. Also it has very little power gets stuck very easy on grass. Unless your driving on concrete don't bother wasting your money.

Pros
  • Tricycles, Scooters & Wagons
Cons
  • The Gator's design may not be comfortable for children to sit in for extended periods of time

Worked for 6 months

Bought this as a Christmas gift for my son in November 2021. It has already stopped working (worked for 6 months). The on/off switch is stuck in "off”. I’ve tried contacting customer support, but I’ve had no luck. 1 star due to poor longevity of product and poor customer support/inability to get in contact with them. When it worked, my son loved it! He is very sad it stopped working.

Pros
  • Very cool vehicle my son loves it..it honks and even has an aux cord for personalized music
Cons
  • The Gator may be too heavy or bulky for younger children to maneuver easily

Motor lasted 2 days

Bought this for our 3-year-old for his birthday. Two days of driving it in the yard and now the motor is irreparably broken. (Well that's not entirely true.it was more like 1.5 days.) What a waste.

Pros
  • ease of use
Cons
  • The water squirter may malfunction or leak, wasting valuable playing time

It was very easy to assemble.

I got this as a gift for my 3yr.grandson it came earlier than it said,which worked out great .And it was very easy to assemble.And he loved it .Thanks ebay

Pros
  • This was bought for our 2 yr old granddaughter. She likes it, but is still a little afraid of it.
Cons
  • No power and doesn’t go in the grass, and that was the whole idea for my grandson. UGH!!!!’nn

Not as advertised.: my feedback

My grandson loved the ride on. It was difficult to put together and despite the advertisement. The battery ran out in less than an hour of use.Would not buy again.

Pros
  • Great power wheels
Cons
  • The Gator's design may be confusing to assemble, leaving you frustrated and your child disappointed

Defective, can it be fixed!

It's great for my grandson , except for the fact it keep cutting off and on like it has a short to the battery! Just gave it to him and at first we thought it was him not pushing down hard enough on the pedal. Nope , not it.

Pros
  • It’s a Christmas gift. Will review after Christmas.
Cons
  • Since the water squirter is detachable, it's easy for your child to lose the squirter attachment

Fun but Small!: my feedback

Fun little vehicle that drove well and the battery lasted long enough to go around our neighborhood several times. Got this for our sons 5th birthday and it was great for a month until even he said it was too small. He had to squeeze into it and he is not a big kid.

Pros
  • Good for kids less than 50lbs
Cons
  • No remote control. Small for a tall 2 year old.

Body not sturdy for my opinion

Would be really nice if they made the plastic body stronger and not so easy to come apart. The steering is very tight and makes it difficult for toddlers to steer. This makes me have to physically pick part of it up and turn it when he runs into things and can’t back it out. Works well, just wish they would fix my issues!

Pros
  • this ride along toy is great! My Grandchildren love it. It is very easy for them to operate.
Cons
  • The Gator's plastic construction may not withstand heavy use or rough terrain

Birthday gift, don't mind paying price ,put smaller then advertised and weight limits. Checking to see if I can return Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • My granddaughter loved it!
Cons
  • Much smaller than expected. Doesn't work in grass.

Great idea, terrible follow thru

I bought this tractor with the extended warranty. It worked well for 7 months then it just stopped running. A number of calls with the warranty company yielded promises, parts that didn’t fit or didn’t fix it, and hands thrown in the air with exclamations of "There’s nothing more we can do”. Calls to the manufacturer yielded "we don’t stock parts for that model anymore”. No parts after 7 months? I’d give 4 or maybe even 5 stars if it still worked or I got good service. Now it’s 1 star.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • The Gator's bright green color may fade over time, leaving it looking dingy or worn

No battery life! for my opinion

I never received a remote control. Charged for over 30hrs for it to only work for a literal minute. I now have a very disappointed son. He did get enjoyment out of disassembling it and putting it back in the package though. Do not waste your money on this POS.

Pros
  • By far the best small-child ATV !
Cons
  • The water squirter may require constant refilling, leading to frequent interruptions in playtime

Brody (our Grandson) loves it!

Exactly as we hoped, it is perfect for our Grandson and he loves it. He is younger than the recommended age (16 months) BUT he had no problems learning quickly how to go! He was on and off all day and we had no problems with this little Gator! I can't imagine a 75 lb (max weight limit) child riding in this but I hope Brody gets a few fun years with it!

Pros
  • Easy to assemble .. Loads of fun!
Cons
  • The rechargeable Gator may not hold a sufficient charge, leaving your kids stranded mid-ride

Rode maybe 3 times up and down the road. It will just stop randomly and needs to be turned off and on to get it to go again. Put it up, inside my house, for a month, charged the battery and now it won’t go at all. So 3 rides out of it total and it’s done for.

Pros
  • This sucker is faster than I ever expected!!! Holds up well!!!!
Cons
  • Almost a cool toy, but totally worthless on grass. It's too bad, because it's ALMOST there.

Child Size for my opinion

It’s not for bigger kids.Runs great, solid build, fast enough for 2-3 year old kids…. If you plan on using a lot, get extra battery.

Pros
  • Love it just wish it went a little faster and the battery stayed charged longer.
Cons
  • Christmas present and my son is frustrated that it stops working

Powerful little vehicle

Looking at the photos I thought this was going to be a very tall vehicle, and too big for my new 3 year old but once it was put together, it was the perfect size for him. It took my husband about an hour to put it together surprisingly, and he's very handy. We let it charge for over 24 hours and then started putting it to use. My son was so excited to ride in it. It is so powerful with just a slight tap on the pedal. It can ride uphill backwards and through grass with no issues. We even let our

Pros
  • Got this for my 2 yr old grandson and he’s in love. Very easy for him to control.
Cons
  • The rechargeable battery may require frequent replacements or repair

False information on product

This electric car is very small , my grandson is 5 years old and small for his age and it was too small for him. Very disappointed in this product. I just wasted $180.00.

Pros
  • Battery could last longer
Cons
  • Not very powerful, for the cost it doesn't go very well would not recommend

Wouldn’t buy again, no safety!

Wouldn’t work correctly, back tire kept coming off drive shaft, gator to light to have good traction. Would be much better with rubber tires. Didn’t have any remote control

Pros
  • My nephew loved it.Plays with it every day.
Cons
  • Wasn’t strong enough and faster
