VTech Sit-to-Stand Learning Walker (Frustration Free Packaging) , Orange

My daughter is nine months old currently, and lovvveesss to pull up on everything. We do have her an expensive sit in walker, which she likes, but instead of walking forward she tries to move side to side no matter how much we try to teach her. So we decided to buy this inexpensive sit to stand walker as it has so many great reviews, and I know she would love the toy part. When it came in, it was easy to snap all the pieces together, which are only the back legs, the handle, add the batteries, and then snap on the toy section to the front. Viola! Instant walker. The walker we received also has the numbers on the top shapes versus whats currently in the description picture which is fruit. Based on another reviewer I knew I had the one with the tension brakes on the back wheels. The back wheels, in the middle of the wheel, have a thin piece of rubber that goes around the whole diameter of the wheel. On the inside of these back wheels are knobs that when turned can ease the tension on the back wheels making them go around easier, for babies who are walking, or turn the tension down for babies who are just learning to stand so the walker wont slide under their weight. That being said, I first tried this out on my carpeted rug, and my daughter managed to not only move the walker on the tension setting, but moved it fast to where I had to catch her or she wouldve face planted the floor. And she hadnt even taken a step yet. That was basically just her weight pushing it. Being a first time parent I had a mini freak, and eyed the walker in distaste, and thought mean thoughts about all the glowing reviews of this. I then tried it on the same rug, pushing it forward, but pushing down a little on it, and it really didnt move that much at all. Which is when I realized my daughters weight and length were some of the factors causing it to glide over the carpet versus having some tension as well as the low pile carpeted rug. We then tried this out on my hardwood floors, and thankfully the rubber on the back wheels worked a bit better. It still glides a bit, but not like it did on the carpet! There is now a lot more traction so it holds still. Needless to say we will still be watching her like a hawk when she plays with this. As for the toys, she adores them! Ill regularly take out the toy section, and lay it on the floor for her to play with. There are two sound settings, high and low, and of course an on and off switch, as well as a music switch or talking switch. Personally I dont see the difference in the last two settings as sometimes it just starts singing by itself. And the phone is supposed to talk when its placed in the holder, but a lot of times it goes off on its own without any of us touching it. Other than those few little bugs, it still is a cute walker, and it is helping her learn to stand up. Ive also pushed this into the corner of our couch, and placed pillows behind it, so she can learn to pull herself up on it, and the walker doesnt move at all when I do that. Nor does she tip it down either. Its bright, colorful, and she really likes it, so mama really likes it too. I do wish the front wheels had rubber strips too, and I might add some self adhesive ones later.

Now that he’s older (13m) and walks/run by himself he doesn’t use the walker part but he does play with the detachable part

Me gusto mucho, es igual que en la foto, todo corresponde

Toy Telephone obsolete and lasted about three minutes but not missed. Possibly have updated this bit! Baby runs with it now - I should call it a runner not a walker.haha Inspires confidence

Helps the baby’s learn to walk. Has locks on the wheels so it’s not to fast. Helped my daughter walk within the first few weeks of using she loves playing with the toy.

My son loves it so far. Only thing is while trying to walk with it he sometimes fall because it isn’t heavy enough

Our grandson had one at home, so we got him one for Christmas for our house. He really interacts with it a lot and uses it to help pull himself up (with us anchoring it). I believe he will be able to use it for at least a couple of years. It was easy to assemble and has been sturdy so far. Yes, the phone doesn’t stay attached well, but that doesn’t seem to bother him.

My 9-month-old grandson loves this toy. He has started to pull himself up on the furniture and walk along the edges so when he pulled himself up on this and was able to move forward he was on top of the world. The only thing that bothered me was that even though the wheels were locked to move slow, I still had to hold the toy so that it wouldnt tip/move out from under him when he would push but forget to move his feet, however, that is to be expected since a baby learning to walk is still learning balance and foot movement so I wasnt too bothered by it. We play on a carpet so those of you with hardwood floors should probably be aware that the toy might move even easier on a hard surface. The toys on the front board keep his attention and he loves to move and touch everything, it also comes apart from the walker part so he can sit down and play with it if he wants to. I would recommend.

Ideal para los primeros pasos, muy entretenido para los niños, bastante seguro, cuenta con frenos de ajuste para evitar accidentes.

My daughter is starting out walking and loves pushing it around. Glad I found a pink version!
