    Reaaly fun kart. I bought two of these for the kids to play with. The installation will require that you have a phillips head screw driver and you need both an 8 and 10 mm wrench. The installation of the steeringwheel can be a bit aggravating. I guess because my fingers are fat. I wish the hole the locknut went into was a bit tighter on the steeringwheel. The head of the bolt to lock the rear axle down busred on me with a few threads to go. But this was only 1 of the 2 bolts acting as a set screw. The kids love riding this.

    Bought for my 8yr old and he got the hang of “drifting” very quickly. The concept of this kart is great, but the wheels won’t last very long. Just running on sidewalks has a lot of wear on the wheels (all plastic). For now, my kid loves it. We’ll see how long it holds up.

    It runs well and is a great go kart for less than 1 hour then you have to wait hours before it's charged again. I purchased based on a 4 hour runtime and would have even been happy with 2 hours however it doesn't even make it to an hour. Unfurtunately I can't return it which is a shame becouse it's more frustrating than fun

    I was able to assemble 90% by myself. Looks nice. Runs great for about 15-20 minutes. Will not hold a charge any linger after charging wee over 12 hours as recommended. Now I cannot get the company to answer or return my call. So not a very good recommendation.

    A birthday-Day gift for my 4YR Nephew. Words can't express how much he loves this Go Kart. The package was received in great condition and the assembly took about an hour. No complaints here thus far from me or my nephew- The drift option on the Go Kart is lots of fun for my nephew. The Kart has a little bit of speed to it so keep that in mind with toddlers and preschoolers.

    My daughter loved her birthday present. I did not think the car will run fast enough but it does. My second youngest is asking for the same birthday gift. I will definitely buy a second one, it is worth it. I wished they had more colors available like pink for example to not get them confused once we have the second one.
