Best fisher-price power wheels thomas friends thomas track (fisher price) in review

What i love about this toy:. -my one year old son loves it. -it is easy for him to operate and climb on and off. -its speed is perfect for my son to learn and me to not lose all my sanity while hes playing with it. -its really easy to put together. . Why i have to give it a four star:. -the track. I loved the idea of it. Keeping him in circles while he learns and increasing saftey of the toy but the inside and outside tracks do not line up very well which leaves some bowing of the plastic on the outside. In order to ensure it wasnt user error, i deconstructed the entire track and put it back together again more mindfully. The bowing is still there. Also, the tires sometimes lose traction with the track and the four wheeler will just stay in one spot spinning its wheels. I thought perhaps we had it spot of ground that was uneven so i moved it to the large flat concrete carport and the tires still lose traction and the track still bows.

This is one of the best things i could have ever bought my 13 month old granddaughter. She loves it. The button is easy to push and it's a great quality product.

2 year old loves it! i found that it did not ride in the grass very well, but does great on concrete and of course on the track! definitely a great buy for any child that likes trains!

Our thomas train was used, you can tell by the box, and the right rear wheel is very crooked, so when it goes, the back of the train wobbles up and down. I haven't tried to return it because it was a hassle to put it all together, including applying the stickers to the body. It still works but its annoying that its defective. My son loves it though. So its still worth it.

My two year old loves this life size train set. It was the star of the show christmas morning. At first he didn't know how to press the button to make the train move, but he learned in a day. I am very pleased with this toy and the smile on his face is priceless. No wonder it's presently sold out!

This is awesome, simply awesome! my 2 1/2 year old fell in love with it as soon as he got on after i put together the track & hasn't gotten off. It's been 3 hours! this picture shows how much he loves it, he fell asleep after being on it for 4 1/2 hours 3 -

This is an excellent toy! my son is 17 months and can operate it and loves it! it's slow enough it won't scare kids, but fast enough to keep them entertained!

Best purchase i ever made for my son. He still loves it almost 2 years later. I bought this for him when he was about 1. 5 years old. It's nice to have power wheels on a track so you don't have to worry about children hurting themselves or driving into the walls and furniture.

An early christmas gift to my 20 month old. He loves it when he notices it and plays with it, which goes for alot of toys expect this one is bigger and more noticeable. Lol. He was very excited to see it when he pulled the wrapping paper off. He gets on it about 2-3 times a day goes around in it 3-5 times before calling it quits. My older son (6) tries to get on it but is quickly run off by the younger one. They do play as if the older one is tied down and the car can't stop and his going to get run over. Lol. It sits in my living room floor area. I don't think it takes up a lot of space but my husband on the other had thinks it does. The car does move with out the tracks, so you can pack the tracks away and just use the car. I have it out all the time and my son has used it off tracks and it seems like it isn't as slow as it is when on the tracks. Overall i think it was a great gift. It was easy to put together. My husband did it in about 30 mins or so. I would def recommend this because its better than the riding toys at the mall. You get your moneys worth.

Bought for my great nephew. He loves thomas, and loves this train! . The only negative for me, is that you have to hold the button contiously for the train to go. I'm sure thats a safety thing, and most would appreciate it. But little fingers get tired after awhile.

My son loves this train so much. He is 2 1/2 years old he loves thomas the train he has his collection of the trains. But this gift was a big hit for him he loves it he won't get off it his on it for hours ever day. I'm pleased of buying this for him. If your kid loves train this is a great gift for him or her.

Bought this for our 11 mo old since she showed interest in trying to ride other toys she had. It took a little over a week, but she eventually figured out the button and was racing around the house in no time. It's a great size for her at 13 mo now (though see below) in that she can sit comfortably with her feet on the pads and easily climb on and off. . Note: if you're worried about your child not being able to work the button, you can always wire up a simple wireless relay (online store has several for $20 or less). This way you can place it on the track and remotely make it go. I'd actually had one already and assumed i'd need to use it for the first few months. . The power/speed seems good, not too fast, but boringly slow either. It has great battery life. In 2 months we've never had to recharge the battery. I don't know the ah rating on it, but looks to be about 3 from the size. The motor is also very small, so i'm sure doesn't consume much power. Plus, it probably only gets used about 3-4 hours in total a week. . The track also turned out to be a huge plus because although she could push the button, she hasn't figured out how to turn yet. So without the track, we're constantly following her to avoid crashing into walls and turning her around. The track also an ideal size, and fits perfectly around our living room coffee table. . The only downside though would be the size. Our child was 28" at last measure and she's sitting at the very back of the seat in order to keep her feet on the pads. Any taller and she'll be sitting on the back rack or her knees will be getting in the way. I'd say she looks very similar to the size of the child in the photo. So she'll probably be outgrown for it around 2 (or 34-36"). Though i'm sure it won't stop her from using it :). . All-in-all though, we're (mom, dad, child) are very happy with it and would recommend it.

The only thing that i don't like is that you need a screwdriver to open the battery compartment to recharge it. The kids love this train and they, at 3 and 4, can even put the track together almost by themselves.
