We just put together this bike so I don’t know how it stands the rest of time. But it is a sturdy bike! Too sturdy for my 2.5 year old. It’s a heavy bike for a toddler. By the time they could handle it well, they’ll be ready for a pedal bike. So the whole point of it being a non-pedal bike for younger kids is useless. Also, the handles are wide so it’s a bit harder to maneuver even without the extra weight of it.But it’s a cute bike! (Although the purple is brighter in real life vs the pictures. And the tires are even more butter yellow than in the pictures, which I’m not a fan of.)Finally, the tires need air. Which isn’t a huge downfall. But it’s been nice to not have to worry about a tire popping or pumping up a tire on other balance bikes we have had.Overall, 3 stars for the aesthetic of the bike. Docked 2 stars for how heavy and hard to maneuver it is for toddlers.
