I searched a long time for a "reasonable" price on this Twist Trike and finally found one so I purchased it for my Grandson. HE LOVES IT!
Initially there was a problem but both Amazon and Radio Flyer were eager to resolve the problem via an exchange or parts. I opted for the exchange and it was smooth and fast. Kudos to Amazon.
This is a great trike and the "Twist" optional riding positions are a neat idea allowing a child to ride at a younger age and continue riding at an older age by performing the "twist". Truly like 2 toys in one.
Be certain to register your purchase with Radio Flyer because they give you an extended warranty for doing so.
Read and heed the instructions and use caution when performing the "twist" procedure. Be sure not to apply any extra pressure to the release lever on the twist mechanism. There is a plastic bushing that can break with any extra pressure thus causing the connection to be loose causing the trike to wobble. According to Radio Flyer, you can not replace just the bushing (you could if you could get just that part) but must replace the whole twist mechanism to fix the problem. Personally I view this as a design (or part) flaw that could be easily remedied if Radio Flyer chose to do so by using a more durable bushing and or offering a more durable bushing as a replacement part instead of the entire mechanism (just my opinion)
Other than this one part I would rate the "Twist Trike" as very durable and well built. I would purchase this Twist Trike again for other children. I wish I would have had one as a kid.
The trike was very easy to assemble and the insturctions were easy to follow.Get more detail about Radio Flyer Twist Trike.
