Best Kids' Tricycles of 2025

"I got this for my 2-1/2-year-old grandson. The price was reasonable, and assembly went okay despite the lack of instructions. I found a helpful video online to guide me. It's a sturdy metal frame bike with a little storage trunk on the back. Just remember to get a helmet!"

"My preschooler absolutely loves this trike! I previously bought a different model for my first three kids, and they enjoyed it until it wore out. I got this one for my son when he was two, but he’s a bit short and prefers to move himself by pushing off the ground rather than using the pedals. Regardless, it’s a fun and traditional red color that my kids enjoy!"

"My daughter is really fond of this bike! The storage compartment in the back is perfect for her toys. The seat can be adjusted as she grows. However, I had a tough time putting the bike together; the instructions weren't very clear, and some parts required a hammer, which scratched the paint. Overall, it’s a great gift for kids!"

"My grandkids absolutely adore this! They race and ride all over the driveway together, and since we have several, there’s no waiting for turns. Easy assembly and a great value!"

"I bought this for my great niece, and she loved it! Perfect size for a toddler, and it’s well made for the price. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a toddler ride-on."

"I purchased this for my 1-year-old son, and he still enjoys it at 2! Sturdy and fun, definitely a great purchase!"

“I’m thrilled my 2-year-old loves this tricycle! It makes our walks easier, and she feels so big pedaling. The safety belt is a great feature, ensuring she can't just hop off unexpectedly.”

“I was so excited to gift this to my grandson for his 1st birthday! It was a breeze to assemble, and I’m confident he’ll be able to use it for 2-3 years. The safety aspects are fantastic, especially the cup holder for his binky!”

“This tricycle was perfect for my 16-month-old niece! Assembly was straightforward, and it seems very sturdy. I love the sunshade and the long handle for easy pushing. Excited to see her enjoy it!”

"My son enjoys this toy. It's easy to assemble and the size is perfect for him. He has a lot of fun! The build quality seems good since he uses it on both trails and asphalt. The wheels are durable! The turning of the wheels is okay."

"Our granddaughter, who is 5, was so excited to ride her big wheel trike outside. She could hardly wait!"

"I found it really easy to put together. I actually bought it as a Halloween decoration to resemble the twins from 'The Shining' and placed it in front of my elevator. Although I haven't ridden it, it feels sturdy. I plan to donate it after the holiday."

"I recently gifted my 3-year-old the Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer & Stroll Ride-On Trike, and it's been a hit! This trike is impressively durable, which is a huge relief for any parent. One of the standout features is its unique design, where the pedals won't wheel in reverse. While this makes it easier for me to assist my child, it can be a bit tricky for him when he wants to pedal independently. The braking mechanism is another concern since he can't hold onto the pedals to brake, making it difficult for him to stop on his own. Despite these minor drawbacks, the trike provides hours of entertainment and helps him develop coordination and balance."

"We absolutely LOVE this trike! My daughter was so excited to ride alongside her big brother. It makes a great first tricycle for a toddler still learning, and the parent steering is an excellent feature. My daughter got the hang of pedaling quickly thanks to the pedal design. It was easy to put together and feels sturdy. Just a note: you will need some tools like a screwdriver, wrench, and hammer."

"My neighbor's son has one, so I decided to get one for my 3 1/2-year-old. He loves it! Initially, he needed help with steering, but now he pedals mostly independently. The steering control bar is great for us; I can easily stop him when needed. The quality is decent for the price, and assembly was straightforward. Just be aware that I had to snug some bolts after a few months, but overall, I would highly recommend this tricycle for toddlers!"

"I found this tricycle to be perfect for my Halloween display. It was easy to assemble and at the lowest price I could find. Now, I just need to keep my granddaughter off it until after Halloween!"

"I really enjoy this tricycle. It brings back memories from my childhood. The Radio Flyer quality is still there, and it's very sturdy. Assembling it took me about 30 minutes since I couldn't find my hammer. If I had all my tools, it would've only taken 10-15 minutes. The steering rod in the back is a fantastic addition for beginners, and it helps my child learn to steer quickly."

"This tricycle is a great quality bike for the price! It's very sturdy and adorable for little girls. I would recommend it for kids at least 3 years old."

"I purchased this trike for my grandson for Christmas. Contrary to some reviews, I found it easy to assemble in just fifteen minutes. The manual was clear and straightforward. I even took the liberty of protecting the back board with polyurethane to prevent warping. I can't wait to see his face on Christmas Day! This tricycle is incredibly sturdy and well-made."

"My grandson just turned two and is absolutely thrilled with his new tricycle. I appreciate the adjustable seat and handlebars, which allow him to easily reach the pedals. It's built with the quality I expect from Schwinn—definitely worth the investment!"

"I bought this trike for my 25-month-old grandson because it appeared well-made and cool. While it was a bit big for him, the adjustable seat means he'll grow into it. The stability of the low ride height makes it unlikely for him to tip over. I’m impressed with its all-steel construction and durability!"

"I purchased two of these bikes for my grandsons, who are almost 2 years old. They fit both of them almost perfectly and I was very impressed with the quality. They were super simple to assemble and are very sturdy. I also love that no tools are needed for assembly, making it easy to disassemble for storage."

"I got this for my 2-year-old grandson for Christmas, and he LOVES it! It's easy to assemble, durable, and a great value!"

"This bike was a great gift for my grandson's 3rd birthday. He loves the baskets for his stuffed animals and it was easy to assemble. It's sturdy, and he can pedal with minimal assistance."

"This tricycle is a hit! The 3-in-1 design is fantastic as it adapts to my child's needs, from a push trike to a regular tricycle. It's well-constructed and easy to assemble. My toddler loves it, and it's perfect for both indoor and outdoor play. Five stars for versatility, quality, and fun!"

"I got this bike for my 4-year-old grandson who is a little over 3ft tall. Once we put the tricycle together, I thought it would be too small for him. I was wrong; it was perfect! The bike has back tires that convert into a two-wheeler experience. Love this one!"

"I'm so disappointed! My son was so excited for his new bike, but putting it together was quite a challenge since the instructions were unclear about the nuts, bolts, and washers. However, the bike rides smoothly, folds well, and can convert into a balance bike. I'm conflicted because he enjoys it, but the handlebars are low for him."

"I got this for my two-year-old's birthday party. Assembly was a breeze, taking me under 30 minutes. It's super cute with a perfect bell and handlebar streamers! The quality is fantastic for the price, and I know she's going to love it!"

"We bought this as a gift for our two-year-old, and it’s just perfect. She’s learning to pedal easily, and there’s even a basket for her dolls. The purple color is adorable, and the materials feel high-quality."

"My three-year-old is absolutely thrilled with this bike! It’s the perfect size for her and was really simple to put together. She rides it everywhere, making it totally worth the purchase!"
