Find Best Price at Amazon"I saw the issues about the wheels sliding on hard floors, being too light to support a child while standing up, going too fast and kids falling on their face... Wheels sliding on hard floors... False, there is a rubber seam on the rear wheels that prevents side to side motion. My 12 month old (recieved this for his birthday) uses the locked setting on the main floor where it's hard floor and the free spinning setting on the carpet."
"Let me also clear up any confusion on why my LO likes this walker - My LO likes this as a toy, loves the music and sounds. - There are two settings to control the speed of the walker (however, we have never used more than one which is the slowest - We have used this walker on hardwood floors - you might want to use the faster setting if using on carpet). - The musical unit will keep your LO entertained for hours! We have had a couple falls, not really bad ones, and while I understand that kids fall and hurt themselves, its not fun when your LO is attempting to stand with the walkers help and the walker slips and runs away. All in all, this was much better than the other walkers we tried. The other name brand walker we purchased was no where in comparison to this walker. Please note - pediatricians now recommend not using a walker, I feel if you are constantly watching over your LO this is probably the safest walker and the most fun walker out there - minus the differences in the older and the newer models."
"A few days later, still a little sad that I couldn't find anything else, a friend of mine posted a video of her kiddos (she has twins) playing with the same toy I wasn't buying!! If your baby is ready to start walking then this toy is absolutely wonderful but please know that if your baby cannot stand on their own, then they are not ready to be walking with this toy so just get it for them to press the buttons since it can be easily removed until they can stand and walk with it. That is what it is made for. I gave the educational value a four because while there are a million things on it that baby can learn from, they probably are not going to because they will be so busy wanting to push a million other buttons."
Compatible with all Mega Bloks sets for endless building possibilities.

They are easily dry by the time my toddler wakes up in the morning, so he can take them back to the living room to play."
"We needed some older than infant toys for bath time and these are great for my 22 mo son."
"who wouldn't like a boat for a bath tub and cars that can go in the water."
"I love listening to the boys playing with this as they make car and boat sounds with their voices whilst moving the toys around."
"I used to buy the rubber fish and frog toys but they became moldy inside."
"They haven't faded in like 2 years of indoor and outdoor play and are so easy to clean!"
"The cars don't dry quite as easily as the boat does, but they still seem to dry better than most of the bath toys we've tried."
"He’s just starting to play in the time b so this was a great buy."

"I wanted to get him a xylophone and also a toy like this one, and it is great to have the two combined!"
"He rolls the balls, plays music with balls on xylophone and uses hammer on balls and the xylophone."
"This looks good and the pound and tap part is great, but the xylophone part is not actually an octave and is incredibly jarring to the ears of anyone who has any musical inclination."

"This mirror doesn't stand up well at all."
"A plastic mirror obviously isn't going to be as clear as a glass mirror, but it's definitely not as bad as a fun house mirror like other reviewers have mentioned. Once the film was removed, it's pretty darn clear for a plastic mirror, and definitely good enough for a baby to look at."
"The baby doesn't really look in the mirror to 'see the baby' because they are so distracted by the bugs."
"Yes, designed for children, but the mirrored material could have been backed by a hard clear plastic to keep it flat and smooth."
"My baby is more interested in the lady bug on the side of the mirror than the mirror itself, and even that curiosity wanes after a couple minutes."
"Baby also loves when I spin the ball on it and crinkle the bee wings, but I'm pretty sure he'll knock it over when he's old enough to do it himself since it's so light."
"It's a soft, shiny vinyl in a sturdy frame and surrounded by foam."

"This is a cool idea but the alarm is crap."
"This would be awesome if it woke you to the sound of the Empire March or something other than "Beep-Beep-Beep", but it is still perfect for the nightstand of any Star Wars and Lego lover."
"I bought the Stormtrooper model 5 years ago in graduate school because I was worried about the power going out and missing class or exams."
"My 9 yr old grandson abs LOVES this clock and the very first night after he got it set it to go off at 5:30 a.m. the next morning(even tho no one needed to be up THAT early!)."
"The other suggestion to the manufacturer is the alarm sound - it should be the Darth Vader's Theme - Imperial Match theme that symbolizes Darth Vader."

"At this point, it's mostly a chew toy (especially when her two bottom teeth came in), but she has loved it for a few months now."
"The packaging says that it is to help baby identify the toy from all the others, but it was just a bit too strong."
"Got the authentic Sophie and baby loves it!"
"Even though the "quality" of the one I purchased from Amazon seemed "ok", there was clear issues & errors with the packaging and toy itself that were dead giveaways. You have no idea what type of paint and rubber is used on the fake ones and taking the chance is not worth the few extra bucks savings. Hooves are bigger and more "defined" on the real one. I hope this helps everyone looking to purchase one of these great toys."
"I did not put hot glue over the hole, because that pops right out if it's chewed enough and it would've become a choking hazard. This mold growth was due to excessively drooly babies using it for over two years for it's intended purpose- a teething toy."
"Who knows what kind of chemical our baby has been sucking on... Also, the paint is pretty much gone now."

This toy, no matter how annoying, is fun for my baby and is teaching her motor skills and cause and effect. I highly recommend it. UPDATE: My baby is now 16 months old and she still really enjoys playing with this toy."

Reviews

As soon as I saw the M&D option, I realized how comprehensively I had failed my child, my wife, and probably everyone who had ever offered me a kind word or the time of day. But lo and behold, the grocery cart smugly emerged, fully assembled, and was of such high quality that I almost puked."
"The shopping cart is the best on the market as far as realism and function...the only flaw is the the handle slides back and forth and has pinched my daughters hand really bad a couple of times..I fixed it by putting a bead of 100% clear silicone on both ends all the way around..."
"This is a high quality, sturdy cart. It's very much like a real shopping cart, but much smaller."
"We kept some white foam cushions for the front bottom racks so my toddler won't runs into furniture. It will hurt if toddler runs over toes."
"All I can say is, when my 2 year old grandson opened it, I was a big hero!!! The little guy is going through a cooking pretend play phase, and this was the ticket."
"My two year old loves it and like to put her dolls in the seat in the front."
"Sturdy, doesn't tip, holds lots of play groceries, stuffed animals or whatever she is "shopping" for."

"My only complaint is that it continues to make noise for a minute or so after you stop playing with it which gets annoying."

"My 14 month old daughter loves playing with all the latches."
"My kid loves this!"
"Birthday gift for a 2 yr old girl."
"My kiddo is dexterous like you wouldn't believe, and has a passion for opening and closing doors as well as removing covers and lids (electrical socket safety plugs, the backs of remotes, change purses, bottle tops, baby wipes) and opening clasps (wallet, watches, bracelets). I remember reading some horrified parent exclaim that perhaps teaching young kids to open latches and locks is a dangerous idea, but realistically speaking - the latches featured here probably aren't used in a safety capacity anyway."
