Great as a ride-on, Not so much as a walker
We have this toy for my 31-month-old and my 9 month old and they both love it. It is not very steady when used as a push toy but is tons of fun as a ride on. It has even supported me sitting on it when my daughter has insisted I do so! I'm still trying to figure out what exactly is supposed to fit in the storage compartment up front.

Tough but yet light enough to handle easily!
I have an older blue model and it is great. My first daughter absolutely loved it and now the second one also. Super tough and still in awesome shape after 3 years. My older one used to put her pacifier in the front compartment to make sure it traveled with her.
It is light and easy for the little ones to turn and pull out when stuck somewhere. Only drawback on the lightness is, that if you have laminated floors, which tend to be a little slippery, it moves a little bit too fast in the early stages. But my second daughter quickly overcame that.
I think it is an awesome buy for the money and then it double as a ride-on car - How cool is that? Now the older one is pushing the little one on it.

Good Buy
I got this toy for my son when he was 9 months old. He likes to push it around his room and sit on it. We also put it in the standing position, and he is still trying to get the hang of it. I recomend this toy for the good value, 2 positions, and durability.

Fun to play with
I got this for my niece. She did not get on it intially but as she saw it couple of times she got on it and now she is not letting it go. Lots of fun.

Sturdy, safe, and fun
I picked this up for my 10-month old girl. At about 20 lbs, she was starting to pull herself up and stand while holding on to the coffee table. We had retired the exersaucer and then the Jumperoo and it was time to find something else to sit her on by herself.

She didn't really take to it right away - at first she would only sit on it backwards while holding the tail-handle. But after a few days she was sitting front-facing and kicking up her feet. She just loves it now, and can sit on it for about five to ten minutes depending on her mood.

The giraffe (I call it a zebra or a horse usually because, except for the spots, it doesn't look like a giraffe - it has a short neck) is a great toy for several reasons. It is wide enough that she doesn't fall off, but can climb off if she concentrates. She likes to plant her feet on the ground and stand up while holding the handles - so it is helping her strengthen her legs and learn to stand. It rocks a little, but does not really slide - really it allows just the right amount of movement. Basically, she is pretty safely immobile without feeling trapped.

There is also a little compartment in the back where baby can stash a couple of toys, and for some reason she really gets a kick out of putting things in there and taking them out again.

The giraffe is quite sturdy (you do have to put it together yourself, which really means snapping five or six pieces together and screwing them down tight), and is compact and cute enough to leave out in the open without really bothering anybody or getting in the way.

I would highly recommend this for a youngster, they'll probably find even more ways to enjoy it.

Best present she got.
I bought this for my friend's daughter last year; she's 16 months now. She loved it. My friend said is was the best present she got. Plus it was only 10 dollars with free shipping

watch the insructions on line before you assemble
It is very cute for my granddaughter she seems to like it and the wall are durable but true to form my husband and my son-in-law thought it would be easy to assemble. An instuction on line was available but we did not watch it sooooooooooooooo it took my daughter, son-in-law, my son, my younger daughter, her boyfriend, my husband and me to figure it out. We have 39 years of college between us.

great play house
This rose petal cottage is so adorable, Its not that tall so you child must sit or kneel in it which must kids do anyway, easy to move from room to room cause its light weight. The adorable design and colors are so cute and sweet. The stove and washer which we have also fit great inside, I used my own table and chairs . Once again amazon dropped the price to 29.99 I couldnt believe my eyes, I ordered it and returned the one I already brought from walmart for 89.00. A must have for your princess play....
