12V Kids Ride On Truck with Anti Slip Wheels, Parent Remote, 3 Speeds, Slow Start and Seat Belt, 66 lb, White

In most of Canada a ride on bought in May is in a garage by November, and a hard plastic wheel on a hardwood floor is exactly the thing nobody wants indoors.

The maker lists wood floor alongside brick and cement road, and describes the 10.5 in wheels as anti slip and wear resistant with a spring above each one. That does not make it silent, but it is a truck designed to be driven inside as well as out, so the winter does not have to be a write off.

White on a grey day

The white shows the body lines and the black trim more clearly than the other colours in this family, and the headlights and roof lamps read well against it in low light.

Published figures

Ages 3 to 7, a 66 lb weight capacity, a 12V 4.5Ah battery, a 12V 500mA charger, 8 to 12 hours charging and 1.5 to 2.8 mph, on a body 39 in long, 26 in wide and 26 in tall.

Wheels and floors

A shock absorber above each wheel, and three surfaces named by the maker: wood floor, brick road and cement road. Indoors is on the list rather than an assumption.

The console

Horn, music, start, direction, speed and light controls plus an MP3 player, all labelled. An AUX cord is included and a USB port sits on the same panel.

10.5 in wear resistant tyres rated for wood, brick and cement.

One shock absorber above each wheel.

Included, with a brake and direction. Two 1.5V AAA cells, not included.

A gradual pull away and a smooth stop rather than an abrupt one.

A seat belt across the seat and locks on the doors.

An AUX cord is included, with music and a preset story built in.

Ships from a Canadian warehouse. Free shipping on orders over $150. Some remote areas, PO boxes and surcharge regions may be excluded or cost extra.

Return within 14 days of purchase, unused, in original condition and packaging.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

Wood floor on the maker's surface list means a basement or a long hallway can take over from the driveway between November and April.

The maker's own band, with a 66 lb capacity that sits above the usual rating for a truck this size.

Three speeds and a brake on the included remote, with the slow start smoothing out the moment a child finds the pedal.
