I purchased this scooter for my grandson.  It was one of the daily deals at the time, and was at a great price.  This product is made of quality material and will definitely stand up to the test of time and the abuse of a 6 year old active boy.  If you are looking for a scooter for your child or grandson, I would definitely look into buying a razor.  My son actually had one of these as a child too, and they definitely hold up and withstand the hardships of being owned by active boys, and I even still have that one at my house for back up when they are here.
