Could do better, 26 Nov. 2013

The item was aesthetically very good and what I wanted visually, unfortunately it has had a couple of technical issues. I have dealt with these personally and NOT got back to the supplier. The axle is wooded and very stiff causing it difficult to push, in testing the article the handle broke because of this. On reflection the handle did not appear to be substantial enough. I have replaced this with a larger diameter dowel. As for the axle this is still stiff but can be overcome because of the leverage now available. If necessary I shall try to get some lubricant in the axle, possibly wax. As to responding to the supplier I took the risk of resolving the issues personally.

So much fun!!! better than bead types and pull alongs in the early days, 5 Oct. 2011

We bought this when our 5 year old was 1 and she LOVED it. Purchased from a local toyshop so we were able to trial it first and thought that she'd love the flapping feet...which she did. Push alongs are great fun especially when first walking (and onwards), pull alongs better later on I'd say I think this is because push alongs have a fixed handle and of course because you can see it whilst you're walking. She also had a ladybird push along, the type with beads that twirl which she enjoyed playing with too but the flappy feet penguin was definately the favourite.Unfortunately I vaccuumed too near the penguin one day and destroyed a foot... now looking for a replacement for soon to be 1 year old son.

Bit flimsy, 20 Jan. 2011

It feels like its constantly going to fall apart in your hands. The flappy feet are too floppy to flap well but they do on wooden floors. Regardless child loves it and has races with the duck up and down the house
