My 2 1/2 year old little girl got one of these for Christmas. She is off like a rocket, which she loves. She gets tired quickly, but as she gets better at it and gets older it will be perfect. Her 4 1/2 year old brother has a more advanced model but she does fairly well at keeping up. The rubber wheels make this a nice, quiet ride so we don't disturb the neighbors at 8am on a Saturday morning when we set off to the playground... Seems good quality and very stable. I still would recommend a helmet be worn though just in case.
Addition to the above: I initially rated this scooter higher but after months of having it, my daughter can't ride it well. The double wheels are at the back and she keeps hitting them with her foot. The more expensive Kick scooter that we bought for my son is preferable to this one. It has the double wheels at the front and seems more stable when in motion.

I bought this scooter for my daughter to get used to the way the scooter worked (as a concept). In that regard, it is great. However, the 2 wheel design in the back makes it scrape her little ankles. The screw heads stick out (they are not flush with the wheels) and having the wheels themselves wider than the base makes it hard to really get going. All in all, it was great for what I bought it for. But pricey for that use. She used it maybe 5 times, now we have to upgrade. She would have taken more spills if I hadn't bought it, but she got scraped up ankles anyway, so really I am just out a good chunk of change!Best Deals for Razor Lil' Kick Scooter
So my 3 year old had to have a scooter. I saw razor, and pink, and I ordered it. Had I looked closely at the picture I would have seen this giant red flag.Look at the capped castle style nut on the center of the rear wheels. If your kid pushes this scooter down the street and back, and does 100 little pushes she is eventually going to get her foot to close to that rear wheel. And when she does, that rounded off steel nut is going to rake across her ankle causing enough pain to buckle the leg.
I let my little girl ride this twice, both times she hit that nut 2-3 times and it just killed me to watch it. I work with product design daily, and I am simply stunned I missed this obvious flaw that comes along with this design. I returned this thing immediately, doubled my budget and got something with a much better build quality packaged around a well thought out design: The Mini Micro scooter.
Seriously consider a single rear wheeled scooter.
