Really fun for our 2.5 year old. Really difficult at first, but great once he started getting the hang of it. Perfect birthday gift for a 3 year old! (Jul 02, 2017)

Best investment! Teaches independent balancing action and the littlest kid can learn to kick walk a bike. Smooth transition later. Well built product. Long lifespan. Apr 17, 2024

My daughter never got past walking while holding the handle bars. I have higher hopes for my younger son. We'll see! Jul 08, 2023
My three year old loves this bike. It helps with their balance and it’s very sturdy, worth the price. Jun 16, 2023

This is the perfect bike for little ones to learn to balance. I had my toddler ride a strider along with a trike and at 4 she was riding her bike w/o training wheels. May 27, 2023

My 3 year old loves his strider! He is able to use it both on the sidewalk and in the grass. He can even stand on the foot rests and coast down small hills. Love how lightweight and adjustable it is. Jan 04, 2023

I didn't have this specific brand (mines was Allobebe but they apparently no longer have 2 wheeler ones and I can't find a photo). Great bike to have the kids use to learn balance! Aug 30, 2022

Perfect for our 2 yr old. Still perfect after 3 kiddos normal use. Like the foam tires they are like new still. No need to inflate. Lightweight. Easy to adjust seat. Jul 22, 2022

My 3yo got this as a Christmas gift. Highly recommend purchasing a balance bike for your toddler to start riding rather than a bike with training wheels Jul 08, 2022

I am amazed at how fast my son was able to learn to use a regular bike without training wheels. I know it was all because of this bike. It’s an adjustable seat, very durable and all in all a great bik Nov 15, 2021

I think I love the idea of this however my child doesn’t enjoy it near as much as I thought she would. However, it’s adjustable and made great do I can’t complain about the product. Jan 19, 2021

Solid! Lightweight and easy to adjust as the grow or get more comfortable. My kids learned how to ride with ease using this and went straight to a 2 wheeler. Kinda pricey though. Jan 16, 2021

Strider bikes are a great first step to biking! Our now four year old rides a normal 'big kid' bike no problem and it was super easy to teach her, because she started on a strider when she was two. Oct 16, 2020

These are so fun! My son loves his and even gets brave enough to balance with his feet off the ground. Great bike. Allows him to feel in control easily too. Aug 20, 2020

We have this on a rocker base. Started using at 8 months. He needed help sitting on it at first but could mount and dismount on his own by 10 months. Now rides and rocks like crazy at 14 months. Fun! Jul 01, 2020

This has been a game changer for our 2 year olds balance capabilities. It’s lightweight, sturdy and easy to handle for a small child. Highly recommend this for around age 1.5-2. Jun 10, 2020

Initially we had one mounted to a rocker base for our twins to use from ~9months up. By 18 months they were at a height where they could touch the floor with their feet. At 2yrs they’re pros! May 25, 2020

These bikes are so durable and so great for kids learning to ride. Our first one lasted through 3 of our 4 kids. It was great too because they all were so confident with balancing a bike. Jan 15, 2020

My daughter was 3 when she got this bike. She could only ride a tricycle at that time. She is now 5 and can ride a two wheeled bike with no issues. Must buy for any kid learning how to ride a bike Dec 03, 2019

My kids never got the hang of this and went right to a pedal bike with training wheels instead. Oct 15, 2019

My youngest (4) is using this and I’m bummed I didn’t have one for my older two. It’s so intuitive and really helping with her balance. It took 3 rides for her to catch on and now we all love it. Jun 12, 2023

My two year old had this and drove it all the time. Once he turned 3 he was able to ride a real bike, no training wheels! I really this its because he was practicing balancing on this bike. May 10, 2022

Love the Strider Balance Bike!! Our son started using it around 2.5 and he zoomed around on it. Allowed for us to skip training wheels because he was already able to balance! Jan 17, 2020

Got it at the age of 20 months. Wasn’t a favorite, but we’ll see how LO likes it next summer at the age of 3. The seat height is super easy to adjust. Strider is also supposed to grow with them. Jan 03, 2020
