JOYSTAR 12 Inch Balance Bike: Perfect Birthday Gift For 18 Months To 5 Years Old Boys & Girls! Review

This bike first arrived in a torn up box and missing parts but as soon as I contacted the seller, they quickly sent me another bike. It was easy to put together, if I had been diligent, I made every mistake possible but very easy to see how to put together once I made mistakes. Took 10 minutes. The bike is safe and well built and my 2.5 year old loves it.

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.

So sad to say my 2 year old can no longer ride his bike as it suddenly just broke … only last a little under a year May not be suitable for snowy or icy conditions.

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.

Great for my little one although it’s a little tricky getting the hang of balancing - which is to be expected. It’s so simple to put together and sturdy!

Update: I was contacted by seller and issue was resolved. Great customer service! Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out and resolve the issue with the bike.Frame of the bike arrived with several chips in the paint… Was disappointed since it was a gift and looked as if it had been already used.

My 2 year old loves this balance bike, and I have to say it's very easy to assemble. the only thing that's a draw back is the tires feels kinda cheap like it will just thread apart but its holding well hehe. I took one star for the wheels.

Axles and nuts aren't much to brag about, and the sticker looks like it was put on by a toddler, other than that i think this thing will last a long time.

We got this for our 3 year old and it is the perfect size for him! It's on the small side for our 5 year old but she also likes to ride on it. Went together easily and seems like it's made well. It's a bargain, especially compared to some of the more expensive options out there!

I have 6 grand children under the age of 5, and they love riding bikes. This is a good quality bike which they love to ride. It takes a little bit to put together, but, well worth it, in the end! These balance bikes really help them learn to balance allowing them to graduate to the bigger 2 wheel bikes, in some cases without training wheels. I will recommended this bike to the parents of my grand children's friends.

Very nice for the price. This is a present for my almost 3 year old granddaughter. I wanted a balance bike that was rated well, but didn't want to spend a lot as she can only use it for a short time. I understand that some parts that hold it together would be plastic. I like the seat and handlebars can be adjusted for height as she grows. The tires are hard plastic, I don't think that matters, as my own kids had big wheels back in the day (remember those?) and had lots of fun on them. My…

.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.

There is a battery compartment with no metal and a button and speaker that look like they should play sound, but no wires.The "directions" for assembly are a joke. There is one half page with a couple pictures, and the rest of the booklet is just mumbo jumbo about how kids should wear a helmet.The thing showed up with a sliced innertube for the front tire.Use your own tools to put it together. The allen wrench snapped immediately.This bike was supposed to be a birthday present, and it couldn't…

It's a nice little bike. Got for our 2 yr old who showed interest in a friends hike similar. Some of the clamps were challenging to fasten. The handle bars turn sometimes even on the tightest setting. And she may have to wait until closer ton3 y.o. because she seems a little small for it. She cannot reach handle bars sitting.must stand up and it seems heavy to her. But she'll grow into it.

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

My daughter loves this! We tried a tricycle first and she only wanted to push it along with her feet. Enter this gem!It was pretty easy to put together. Maybe 10 minutes after I got it out of the box.My daughter loves to take this bike out every time we go outside on walks now. It didn’t take long for her to get a good handle on how to use it. She gets faster and smoother everyday.

Bought this balance bike instead of a Strider (we already have one Strider) because it was so much cheaper. Happy to report it is comparable and seems to have better features (quick release seat, protective ball over handle bar). Two minor issues: seat post is super short so it doesn’t go very high and it had a pretty big chip out of the paint. I would buy this again over a high priced Strider for sure.

I ordered two identical bikes, but different colors for my twins. One green and one Purple. My husband assembled the purple bike - exactly as I ordered, matched the picture perfectly.When it came to the green bike, it was different. The seat and handlebars are brown, not black and it has a foot plate, which isn't shown in the picture. The handlebar design is also slightly different. However, it is from Joy Star Bike, same as the one we ordered.I am going to assume it could be a picking error on

As a physical education teacher, I love this bike and purchased it for my youngest kid! My older 2 kids had the typical training wheel bike. This is so much better! It works on balance and coordination and they can start so much earlier than on a regular bike! My son loves his!

Not super easy to put together. Instructions are just a series of photos, so when we had a question we just had to wing it, which wasn’t ideal.
