Go-Ped Gas Powered Full Suspension 4-Wheeled Trail Ripper Quad Review

Go-Ped Gas Powered Full Suspension 4-Wheeled Trail Ripper QuadAbsolutely great! Kids loved it and worked out what to do in about 10 minutes. Easy to build and seems pretty strong. Only problem we've had is the inlet manifold (plastic I think) cracked making it unuseable, probably just a fult in the plastic. Waiting for Go-Ped customer support to reply though.

Razor Dirt Quad Electric Four-Wheeled Off-Road Vehicle (Red) Review

Razor Dirt Quad Electric Four-Wheeled Off-Road VehicleThis is for everyone who gave this quad a bad review because the charge does not last more then five minutes or less. I purchased this dirt quad for my 8-year-old son and like some of you I was quite disappointed with the quad's charge longevity. The quad did not last five minutes before my son was wheeling it back into the garage for a charge, and it was brand new! At first I thought like the rest of you who experienced this same problem, "It was just an expensive piece of junk". But I noticed when the battery went dead and we put it on charge the light on the charger would go from red to green in just a few minutes, a lot less then the recommended charge time. So I figured maybe the charger was no good. Luckily we also own the Razor go-cart, which uses the same charger and always worked great. So I swapped out the chargers but the go-cart still charged fine. And the charger on the quad still turned from red to green in just a few minutes and still died out fast. So I went to Razor's website and contacted their customer support. They told me the problem sounded like a bad battery and explained that even though the quad is brand new it may have been sitting around in a warehouse for months, even years with the battery connected. If the battery goes a long time connected to the ATV and never on charge, the battery will eventually go bad. The battery should always stay on charge even when not used for long periods of time. They were right! They sent me a brand new battery free of charge, after I sent them a copy of my receipt proving I bought the quad within the warranty period, less then 90 days. As soon as we received the battery, I changed it out and all I can say is "what a change"! The quad is strong as can be and I could honestly say that even driving it up and down hills on rocky terrain the dirt quad lasts well past 30 minutes, about as long as my son lasts. And it still shows a full charge on the power indicator when he is done. It is like a completely different machine from the one we started out with. So to anyone here who thinks they got stuck with a piece of junk, go right to Razor before your 90 day warranty expires and file your complaint. They have an excellent customer service department and will contact you within 24 hours, you will not be sorry. I am very satisfied with Razor and even more satisfied every time I see my son's face now on his new dirt quad.

Razor Dune Buggy Review

Razor Dune BuggyAnd we've had a few of them.I have read many complaints about Razor and their customer service. Fortunately, my experience has been very positive. This is the fourth razor ride on toy that I've purchased and they have all performed wonderfully. My kid's pocket ROcket is almost 4 years old now, and is still working well on the original battery.

ANyway, THIS KART IS AWESOME!In addition to arriving fully assembled, and charged up, this thing does everything it claims. It's got great torque, crawls right through mud and over bumps and uphill, and is a very well constructed little buggy.

Like the MX350, I would prefer a footbrake, because my 3 year old can drive this thing, but can't squeeze the hand brake.OH well, he's younger than the recommended age so this is on me. THe motor provides more than enough " engine braking" anyway to bring the thing to a pretty rapid halt when you let off the gas.

I am verypleased in every way with this buggy.

Only notes:
The flag is Black, and really should be orange, and perhaps taller.

The tires are not the same ones pictures above. THey have a weird kind of mixed tread that is street ready in the center, with really aggressive treads on the sides. We'll see how long they last.Kind of cool, just not what I expected given the pic.

All the kids in teh nneighborhood seem to think it's fast, but my kids have been riding these kinds of toys since before they could walk, and this one could maybe use a higher top speed. But to sacrafice a bit of speed for what is pretty incredible torque is a worthy tradeoff.

For the price, there really isn't a better toy for a little kid.

My boys are 3 and 5 and are just in heaven with this car.

Battery lasts them full throttle for about an hour.
