Step2 Thomas the Tank Engine Up and Down Roller Coaster

While I don't love the space that this roller coaster takes up (or the dent in my trash can), it doesn't take up as much space as I thought. My 2.5-year-old son loves it! He kept shouting, "Thomas!", "I LOVE IT!", "I LOVE THOMAS!", and "Mommy, say, "I love Thomas!" The first few times we had to load the car back up for him, but now he can do it on his own. There have been a couple of times that he's loaded it with one wheel off the track, but the majority of the time, he gets it locked in with no problems. He doesn't slow himself down with his feet every time; hence, the trash can dent.Assembly requires a hammer to attach the wheels and a steady hand to put quite a few decals onto the train. The track/steps slide and snap together within a couple of minutes.*Helpful tip: Thomas was sliding around quite a bit during use so we put some non-slip drawer liner pieces under the step portion and the end of the track to help keep it in place.Great, fun toy!

When our Thomas the Train loving 2 year old grandson first saw this birthday present, he was thrilled and he loves riding on it. So does the 5 year old although being tall for his age, he has to hold up his legs but it doesn’t bother him at all. They ride it backwards sometimes too just to change things up.It went together easily and it very high quality. If you do not see the rods for the wheels, just turn the train upside down and there they are taped underneath. It has nice decals to put on the train and it looks great. As long as you have a long, narrow empty space for this toy, you should give it a try.

this has been a great toy. my sons love it. my 6 year old can fit on it as well as my 2 year old can and they are both average size for their ages. its loud so its in our play room away from our family room. its very long so you have to have space for it. but assembly was a breeze and its my sons favorite toy. :) he can even put other riding toys on the slide and go down with those so they can take turns going down the slide. we have taken it outside for BBQs and other kids just love it. great buy and i would recommend this to others. it really keeps all kids busy and is always a hit with my sons friends :)

The Thomas Roller Coaster Ride has been an excellent purchase and definitely worth the money. I have two children daughter is 9 and son is 1. I also have nieces ages 3 & 4 and Nephew who is 2. They all love this they play on it for hours at a time taking turns. Now for my 9 year old daughter this is way too small for her and we wouldn't have it if we just had her but she still loves to ride down it so no its not made for 9 year olds but yes she still uses it. My one year old I have to help with it still but he is getting close to be able to do it by himself. My nieces and nephews 2, 3 and 4 do it on there on and love it. This is probably best for ages 2-5 but again my 1 year old loves it he just needs help on it and my 9 year old uses it but its way too small for her.It was easy to assemble I am terrible at assembling things and I was able to put it together in just a few minutes. The car comes assembled. It is a larger toy we have it in our basement play room. My sister has the Step 2 one which she placed hers outside and you could place this outside as well. The kids love this one more than the Step 2 one and play on it for longer. Again this is very large so you will need a larger area to put it.The kids also will ride the train around the basement you just push with your feet. There are no batteries needed. It is excellent and we absolutely love it. I would highly recommend this for all kids they will get a lot of use out of it.

We bought this for the kiddos Christmas of 2017. Yes, I'm just now getting around to posting this. Seriously, the best gift ever. The toddlers LOVE Thomas, and they play with this almost every day. Besides from a few stickers peeling off, he is still in excellent shape. He endures constant toddler abuse, yet he is still as good as new; no issues with the plastic. This is also a very safe toy. No injuries or insane wipe outs to report, and we have it sloping on a hill for maximum Thomas fun (=

I found out about this toy about 2 weeks before Christmas and as soon as it went on sale, I jumped on it! My son is 22 months old and I knew this would be the perfect toy for him. The second he seen it, his eyes got so big. We showed him how to use it one time and before you know it, he mastered it! He even does it backwards.My daughter is 8 years old (60lbs) and she can even ride it. It's very sturdy and was so easy to put together.If your child is as adventurous as mine, then this will be a hit for sure! Hours of fun!!

Perfect for our two year old at the time, the Thomas Train car is ,NOT as spacious as the original "UP DOWN" car purchased for another family member.Still, all the children with these roller coasters invent new ways to use them: toy cars, balls, their own agility. Well worth the money.First family purchased for has had theirs nearly nine years!Indoor or outdoor use.

I got this as a Christmas gift for my friend's little ones (2 and 3 1/2) and they absolutely love it!! They played with it literally all day. Assembly was easy. The most time consuming part was putting on all the decals. The overall sturdiness is great. The only thing is the left front wheel is slightly off the ground when sitting at the top of the track. However, it doesn't casue any issues, it's still completelt safe (think of a chair that lost one of the pads on the bottom of the legs; rocks a slight amount but has no way of actually tipping over). The snap together feature of the tracks is great! The first few times it might take some extra force to snap together but it all fits. All in all, excillent product. If you're giving this as a gift, I recommend you take out the train and put that all together first since it takes about a half hour to an hour.
