PlasmaCar Blue

I am so happy I bought one of these for the grand kids! I've been staying with my daughter and kids (their dad is currently deployed) for the holidays so I've had the pleasure watching them play with their Plasmacar every day. And I mean every day, for hours! I wake each morning to the sound of rolling wheels as one of them starts their laps around the house with it. The house has all wood and tile flooring and the bottom floor is 5 rooms that are all connected by either open arched entryways or doorways. They open all the doors and ride full laps around and around. Four year old Johnny uses it most and has just now mastered the "no feet needed handle shimmy" propulsion method. He was using his feet up until this morning when I showed him the video review of the little girl wiggling the controls and not having to use her feet. He picked up on the method immediately and has been practicing all morning. He can now do a full house lap without using his feet. So if you are worried your child might not be able to pick up on the wiggle action, don't hesitate to buy this anyway. They get lots of enjoyment using their feet and when they finally master the controls they really get a boost of self confidence! And do as I did, show them a video and they'll figure it out faster. Two year old Hayden loves to do laps too and sometimes just sits on it in one room, rocking back and forth while his hands are busy with other Christmas toys. 8 year old Teagan doesn't use it as often but does occasionally enjoy doing a few laps. To be honest, I think she'd probably use it more if she wasn't so preoccupied by so many of her other new toys. Sometimes the boys double up on it as well. Surprisingly they don't seem to fight over the car like they do the many other new Christmas toys. I was a little worried about buying just one of these but they tend to take turns or double up. I also like the fact that the car can make extremely tight turns without becoming unstable or tipping. I've never seen any of the kids fall off. In fact, even with all of the use its had already I haven't witnessed a single "accident" with it other than bumping into objects from time to time. I was a bit concerned about the wheels running over bare feet while they scoot but its never happened yet. The car was very easy to assemble, took less than 5 minutes and no tools needed. It is built very sturdy and from reading other reviews I don't foresee that this toy will break anytime soon. I was also concerned that the wheels might damage the wood flooring but after hundreds of laps already I don't see any kind of marks or indentations on the floor at all. We haven't taken it outside so we don't have any idea how it rides on any other type of surface but for indoors it is an awesome toy that will undoubtedly get used every day. I highly recommend this car to anyone with children 2+ years. You won't regret the purchase!

This toy is just plain fun. Even for your kids! In fact you might have to get them one as well! It started when we ordered a couple for our two grandkids. Both boys. One barely walking and the other a 4 year old that doesn't know the meaning of walk. Once we got these put together we saw how much fun they were we had to find a reason to order more, so we decided our niece and nephew needed them as well. The specifics: 1. The toy is easy to put together. All you need is a hard rubber mallet (a block of wood and a claw hammer works just as well), and a Philips screwdriver. (You will not need to put in any screws but you will need the screwdriver with the included socket tool to help you tighten the nut on the steering shaft). There is a good video on YouTube about how easy it is to put together. 2. The toy is sturdy. Check out some of the plasma car race video's on YouTube to see how sturdy this toy is. (In no way do I suggest this is the way to treat the toy, but the videos are entertaining.) In any case they state the toy can handle up to 200 lbs on a smooth surface. I can personally testify that it will handle a bit more than that with no problem. (Hey Plasma Car! How about a bigger model made for us full size 50 year old adult frame types. I am at a significant disadvantage when sidewalk racing because of the cramped posture I must assume when competing!) 3. The toy is fast enough for any toddler, and on a downhill slope can be a real thrill. Toddlers will find it fun and they figure out how to make it move without any instruction. They can also paddle it around with their feet as well. Believe me, they will make it move plenty fast with just a little practice. 4. The toy is expensive but consider that if they start at 4 years old they could ride it for 10 years or more. So it only comes out to about five or six dollars a year. How many toys can you say that about? 5. No motor. No fuel. No batteries. You might think that means no fun. But not so! Certainly it's not as fast as a dirt bike. But watching my 18 year old daughter cruise around the house made me realize that fun riding toys don't necessarily need motors. And since we won't let her ride the dirt bike indoors, (or even her bicycle for that matter) this becomes a fun alternative. 6. Quiet. Except for the giggles and squeals. If you read other reviews you will see a couple of disappointed reviewers. As for being hard to put together, the ones we received went together easily. You will need a hammer of some sort, and some tool like a screwdriver to turn the socket tool but that is all. Fast and easy to put together. As to being slow, well it can be. It can also go fairly quickly. It's all in how you work the handles back and forth. Really, check out the videos on YouTube. I think kids of any age will really like the Plasma Car. I highly recommend this product.

Our grandson is almost 3, and not a large child for his age, got right on the PlasmaCar and learned how to maneuver thru the house on the tile floor so quickly! His daddy envied the skill and fun his son was having, and had to try. With knees around his ears almost, he just couldn't duplicate the movability and style the little guy has in turning corners and gliding from room to room. It's "so fun" watching and really does make you want to try! Very sturdy and very unique! I can see many years of fun from this riding toy. We just purchased a second PlasmaCar in pink and black for our Granddaughter who will be 5 in Dec. Can't wait to see her adapt and watch them together as the cousins go head to head! The PlasmaCar is noisy in the house but you will know what the child is doing when you are busy with a task that needs your attention. Hard wood floors are excellent. .but carpets can be a hinderence to the steering, but our little guy puts his feet down, while still sitting, and hoofs it back to the tile. Can see that this will be fun for the side walks soon too. We have 2 younger grands and will wait to see if they will want their own PlasmaCar in the future. This is a very unique toy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this for little one's learning fun.

Authentic PlasmaCar by PlaSmart. Great price and fast delivery

Amazing product..bit expensive but worth spending

This is a good ride on toy car for children. It is quite safe, smooth and comfortable for ride on hard and smooth surfaces. Price may be little higher but children love to have it. It can safely carry 40 Kg or even more.

Es muy fácil de armar y solo estaba pensado para mi hijo de 3 años y ahora también lo usa el de 10 años es muy fácil de manejar y de que avance, todo lo que menciona en las especificación es correcto lo volvería a comprar sin duda.

My kid loved it... amazing product. Initial 10 minute struggle to assemble especially hammering, rest works like a charm.
