12V Kids Ride On Unicorn with Detachable Training Wheels, Horse Riding Mode, Handles and Footrests, 66 lb, Pink

Bolt on stabilisers are the usual answer for a child who cannot balance yet, and they work loose, rattle and eventually get left in a drawer with the wrong spanner.

The training wheels here are part of the design rather than an afterthought, sitting behind the driven wheel on their own mounts, and the maker describes them as detachable. They come off cleanly when a child no longer needs them, and the toy still looks right without them.

Pink on white

A white moulded body with a pink mane, tail and wheels and stars printed along the flank. The horn and the ears are moulded into the head rather than glued on.

What a child holds

Handles at the neck with a ribbed grip, a wide flat seat and footrests moulded into both sides. On a toy with no belt and no doors, those three are what a child is relying on.

Two modes on a switch

Normal driving with the training wheels down, or horse riding mode where the body rises and falls as it moves. The maker puts the published 1.86 mph on the same panel.

What we stand behind

• Speed, battery ratings, age, seat load capacity, seat size and dimensions are the manufacturer's published figures.
• CPSC CPSIA and ASTM badges appear on the maker's own panel. No certificate number is published, and we do not assert the certification ourselves.
• This model has no parental remote and no seat belt. Neither is claimed here.
• No run time per charge is published.
• A toy for supervised play on private property. Never on a road, a sidewalk or a bike path.

Do the training wheels come off?

Yes, the manufacturer describes them as detachable.

What is horse riding mode?

A switch makes the body rise and fall as the toy drives, rather than rolling along flat.

How fast does it go?

1.86 mph, which is slower than an adult walks.

What age and weight is it for?

Over 3 years old with a 66 lb load capacity of the seat.

Is there a parent remote or a seat belt?

No. This model has neither, so it needs an adult watching.
