My 9 month old son had been pulling up and cruising along the couch for some time & we thought he’d be thrilled with a toy he could push and walk with. When this cart arrived, I could barely get it together fast enough, he was so excited with it visually! The crocodiles are adorable, they don’t clack loudly at all. The cart is designed so it won’t tip backwards very easily, so my son can pull up on it to walk. He gets just the right speed for his age on our carpet, not too fast. Very bright and such a nice alternative to the plastic junk you see. Something you’d want to hold onto for awhile. And the price is great at $26. here on amazon.

We bought this for my daughter’s first birthday and she loved it during the first week she played with it. However, wooden slivers from the plywood side panel began flaking and breaking off almost immediately. Each broken piece is about an inch long and incredibly dangerous. We have taken it away from her and will be returning it as soon as I have time. What a shame. I previously loved Melissa & Doug products.

I was happy with this until the top bar came loose just a few days after we bought it! My 20 month old fell forward and landed with his neck on one of the vertical parts. It was terrible, and all because their glue didn’t hold. If you buy this, please screw the top bar in place so this doesn’t happen to you. This is not the only Melissa and Doug toy we have had glue issues with. Not recommended.

My daughter got this toy for Christams when she was 8 months old. By 9 months she was crusing around the house with it…doing laps. She is now 15 months old and can walk but she still loves to play with this toy. It is durable and the rubber on the wheels means it doesn’t take off when it hits none carpeted surfaces

Wow, what a bummer. We have lots of Melissa and Doug toys, and I’ve always been very happy with their quality and durability. This one however, is shameful! My first clue should have been as I was taking it out of the box, the top layer of cheap wood splintered off. Had I bought it in a store, I’d have taken it right back. This was a birthday present for our daughter though, and bought online, so I thought “Well, it’s just one strip of wood.” Our child loved this toy right away…that being said, within the first week the entire area of blue wood began splintering off. All over the floor. Not only could my daughter have choked on a piece, but she could have scraped or cut herself, etc.
Cheap craftsmanship aside, my daughter has lost her balance and toppled over the top bar twice, and hit her head on the wooden alligators. Now, the toy didn’t cause her to lose her balance, but considering this is a toy made for toddlers, and toddlers tend to topple, wouldn’t they have thought of the possible injuries?
Overall, an INCREDIBLE DISAPPOINTMENT and I’m sorry to say that it’s made me a little wary of Melissa and Doug toys in general.
