Our 3 year old granddaughter loves it. Instructions were not the best for assembling. Needed more details. It came in many more pieces than I anticipated. The 2 doors should have had more simpler handles to open. The latches are even difficult for an adult. It has great accessories. A stereo with several programmed songs, a fwd and reverse shifter. Headlights and roll bar lights. Duel rear wheel drive motors give it good power to pull her around our hilly yard off road. Great value.

The only complaint I have with this little toy are the wheel/tires. Both rear wheels have split down the middle. I purchased the warranty and it reimbursed me 100% and they didn’t want it shipped back. Worth the $10. My granddaughter still loves it so I’ve had to screw and duct tape the wheels back together. Not attractive by no means. Could not find just replacement wheels anywhere. Factory from China said they would send them but never did. Other than that, everything works on it still, and it’s a strong little ride on toy.
This ride-on is great. Having the option of controlling the car is a great feature. It allows the kids to ride around the property safely. It does have a little trouble going up small hills with both kids in it. The lights, the working horn, the radio are fun features to have. Glad we bought this.
Id like to give this 4.5 stars, but thats not an option. The reason I cant give it 5 stars is because there is no way to tell when the vehicle is fully charged, and no way to tell how much longer the battery will last. (In the manual, there is a comment about an optional digital voltmeter; I have no idea how to order that or where to get it from, but according to the manual, it exists.) Additionally, the parental remote control is easy to operate, but the steering is not terribly responsive... its difficult to make the vehicle go in a completely straight line. Sidewalks are generally wide enough, though, and so if the vehicle drifts slightly to the left or right all the time, its ok. The vehicle is definitely unbalanced in the sense that most of the weight is in the back, and putting a toddler there adds to that, so going up steep slopes is not recommended, I assume due to potential for tipping over, as well as strain on the battery. (On city streets with steep hills, the vehicle climbed the slopes just fine and didnt tip or overheat.) The two lights on the back that face forward are, in my opinion, useless and the company should have put two cup holders there instead. Also, the toolbox that comes with the vehicle is not necessary (too small to be useful and hold anything more than perhaps a pair of gloves), and this would be another opportunity for the manufacturer to put some sort of cup holders on the back. The doors open and even have locking mechanisms, but when the doors are opened, there are still pieces of plastic stretching across the doorways that make it a little difficult for a smaller kid to get in unassisted. (In all fairness, the vehicle age recommendation is 37-96 months, and a 29-month old is the one using this...)
The good news: after charging it for several hours (the manual recommendation is 8-12 hours), the vehicle went 1.4 miles and still had battery remaining. The other good news: the 29-month old who is using it loves it. When hes in it he sits about 11 inches off the ground, and hes up higher than he would be in a battery-operated convertible, for example. For about $200, it has provided lots of fun for him, and I like not having to push him (as hes too young to be coordinated enough to use the pedal and steering). This will still be enjoyable for him to use several months and even a year or two from now.
Assembly: It took Grandpa 2 hours to assemble it. The instructions were fairly straightforward (although the sentence construction/grammar is not so great). You need a Phillips-head screwdriver and long-nose pliers; these are not included. It comes with two hex wrenches (spanners in the instructions). Grandpa said there were a few extra screws and washers, so the good news is you wont run out of those.
This truck is way more than what I expected it to ever be. I have a 4 and 2 yr old and we absolutely love it. It’s so nice to be able to have control with the remote, if they’re driving somewhere they shouldn’t be, it takes one click of the remote and stops the vehicle and I can drive it from there. The truck holds a good amount of weight, I can have both kids, a lawn chair, and a bunch of toys on the back. Goes no problem, and we live in a rocky, hilly area. We even sink my phone up to play fun music. The battery lasts really long. We drive it around off and on all day, and by the end of the day it still goes! We purchased the warranty, had a small issue with the back tire motor, I contacted the seller, they got back right away and are sending us a new motor no problem. Extremely nice people, and wonderful product!

Having the option to control it remotely

Seems like a good deal for the money.
Steering assembly should be instructed to be installed before the front wheel axle and tires
Perfect Jeep for tots!
High quality, fast shipping, works wonderfully! We are in love with this! Very easy to put together and has amazing detail!
Good fun for a toddler
