My son got this for his first birthday.  He loves it.  First it is a pain in the neck to put together very difficult.  Took me about an hour.  But once it was together he really liked it.  It has so many uses.  He can sit in it and turn the wheel honk the horn and play with the key.  He even at 15 months now doesn't know how to push it from inside.  We give him rides in it though.  His favorite use is to stand behind the car and push it.  He will walk up and down the sidewalk pushing this car.  It is the perfect height for litle ones to push.  The bad points is it is hard to get the door open and shut it takes more strength then young ones may have.  Also if it gets wet you have to turn it over to get the water out.  But we leave the car outside and it is weathering well.  No fading yet.  I recommend this
