Amazon.com Product Description
This classic ride-on is inching his way back into action for a new generation of children to love. Parents remember this classic design with the friendly face that encourages kids to take part in the bounce-and-go motion. Youngsters weighing less than 50 lbs. can hop in the ergonomic saddle, place their feet on the integrated footrest, grab on to the heart-shaped handle, and start bouncing up and down to get the Inchworm to accordion forward on its four molded wheels. With his smiling face and cute red bowler hat, there's not a child who won't want to ride on this toy all day long.

Inchworm Seat

This generation of the classic ride-on has an ergonomic seat with heart-shaped handle.

Inchworm Foot

The sturdy plastic Inchworm measures 34"L x 15"H x 6.5"W and weighs 8 lbs. A hammer, screwdriver, and adult are required for assembly, but not included. Adult supervision is recommended when this curvy green critter is in use by little ones.

1 out of 5 stars Don't Buy It   June 23, 2008
J. Kim
My daughter is 2 and a tall, strong girl. She rides a Radio Flyer tricycle all around our driveway. She could not even get this thing to move. It's horrible and a terrible waste of money. It just sits in our garage on the shelf since no one (not even our 6'2, 280 lb football player neighbor) could get the thing to move. It's cute, but that's about it.


4 out of 5 stars Fun but a little disapointing   June 2, 2008
Anne Redding
I purchased an inchworm for my two year old granddaughter's birthday. She eagerly climbed upon it, but she couldn't make the inchworm inch, only roll. I thought she might be too light, so we put her four year old brother on it. He couldn't make it inch either no matter how much he dropped his weight on it! I am hoping it will soften with use, but that remains to be seen. It's a cute, durable toy, but it hasn't performed as advertised yet.


5 out of 5 stars More than an inch of fun!   May 27, 2008

Radio Flyer The Inchworm
I bought this toy for my granddaughter. When she comes to our house, my granddaughter spends alot of time on this toy. It's perfect for riding around on the inside of our home--we have wood floors--and outside. The wheels are small so they do get stuck on any object on the floor, but it's lightweight enough for my 2 year old granddaughter to lift up. She does not bounce on it to move, but pushes with her feet. I'm sure it's quieter that way, anyway. It's a great fun toy for her, and she sits up higher than on her other riding toy.



2 out of 5 stars Not as good the one I remember   May 13, 2008

When I saw the Inchworm was back, I was so excited because I remember the one from the 70s when I was a kid. Radio Flyer should consider putting a weight requirement on this toy because you have to be adult-size to bounce it. My son got it for Christmas. He's a BIG 2-year-old weighing 40 pounds. My 4-year-old daughter also weighs 40 pounds, and she can't move it either. I believe it's supposed to "inch" along as you bounce up and down on it, but even applying all 40 pounds, neither my son or daughter can make it work. I, of course, can make it work, but I weigh 145 pounds! They scoot along on it using their feet, but it's hard to make it go, so they get bored with it pretty quickly. I'm so disappointed. I wish we'd gotten some other type of ride along toy for my son.

I don't really have anything else to add that the other reviewers haven't already stated. My 2 year old was so happy to get this toy until he became very frustrated that it does not move. Even if I sit on it, a grown adult, it is difficult for me to get it to move. Needless to say, it is in our closet not being played with. Would not buy again.
