Razor Dirt Quad - 24V Electric 4-Wheeler ATV - Twist-Grip Variable-Speed Acceleration Control, Hand-Operated Disc Brake, 12" Knobby Air-Filled Tires

Bought this for my 4 year old perfect size, high quality, and solid frame. No assembly other than attaching handle bars.

This thing is awesome, while it is more expensive (around $100) then a power wheels, it is well worth the extra money. We purchased the electric dirt bike for my older girl (7), and my younger girl (4), who cannot ride a bike without training wheels yet was devastated she couldn’t ride it yet. So we decided to purchase this so she could have fun too. So what everyone really wants to know; 1. Yes it’s a great machine, it goes just fast enough for them to have fun without getting hurt, I’ve seen a few reviews claiming it’s a little unstable but my little one is a little nuts and hasn’t flipped it yet. 2. Battery is great, I’m watching them run around the yard as I write this and she’s been going over a half hour on one charge. 3. It’s well built, this isn’t the all plastic powerwheels junk, it has a metal frame, metal handlebars and brakes. It also has pneumatic tires, and a shock on the rear axle. Plus it’s quiet, it’s not like something gas powered that will disturb your neighbors. 4. My 4.5 year old is average sized and this fits her perfect and probably will for a couple years, definitely not sized for a kid That is 13+. I know this is a bigger purchase but if you are weighing buying this, do it, your kid will have so much fun, for quite a few years, at least til they are ready for the much faster gas-powered version, which this will prepare them for.

We have had this quad for 3 weeks and my 2.5 year old loves it. It is perfect for my 2.5 year old and 6 year old but too small for my 10 year old. We live on a farm and have plenty of space, lots of dirt terrain, and small hills that the quad does well on. The tires and body frame look are awesome. The battery life is as advertised between 30min to an hour depending on how many hills my 2.5 year old does and if he gives my 6 year old rides too. We did run into some battery problems on day 8 when the battery was plugged in but would not charge. We removed the charging station for the Razor electric scooter (also a good purchase but more for 6-10 year olds) to a separate outlet and let the quad charge for 2 days. Now it charges just fine and has its full power. As advertised it does not reverse so you would have to manually push it to back it out or if stuck. It only has one speed which is a good medium speed. My 2.5 feels so independent and can keep up with his siblings now. We purchased the FIT RIGHT Monster 36Volt for our 6 year and that thing is decently to powerful for our 2.5 year old. That one has 3 levels and key but even on level one it's too powerful for our 2.5 year old but perfect for our 6 year old. I wouldn't have my kids using the Razor quad without a helmet because it can tilt if making a sharp turn.

Super sturdy good torque but speed could be better

This is most definitely a step up from a Powerwheels toy. It has a steel frame, pneumatic tires and truly works off-road. My 9 year old daughter has enjoyed it a great deal since she received it for Christmas. The batteries don't last a really long time, but they last as long as my daughter wants to play. She's easily driven over a mile on a single charge with about 200 feet of elevation gain on our farm. Some things you should know about it: 1) The four-wheeler has a suspension on the rear axle only with no lateral pivot between the front and rear axles. This means that on uneven terrain it's very likely that one of the front wheels will be floating. This hasn't been a real problem for us. 2) The recommended tire pressure is really high for the weight it carries. I recommend using significantly less tire pressure if you're riding off-road, like 10psi or less. This thing will jar your teeth out at the recommended pressure. 3) There is no rear differential. Both rear wheels are driven by a single axle. That means it can 'push' (front tires will slide and increase turning radius) a little when turning on asphalt, but that also means it's less likely to get stuck off-road. 4) The manual recommends you keep the batteries above freezing at all times. That can be a bit inconvenient if you were planning to store it in an unheated space, that said, I don't think the batteries are going to fail just because of a few departures below freezing. The batteries are lead-acid, which are filled with a water-based electrolyte that can freeze when temperatures are low enough, but they don't freeze at the normal freezing point of water, and when the batteries are fully charged that lowers the freezing point even more. Ours was stored outside, fully charged with temperatures well into the 20's. When temperatures dropped into the single digits we provided a little supplemental heat. I'm not sure if that was entirely necessary. If you are storing it in an unheated space, make sure you keep the batteries fully charged. 5) It only has one brake and it's on the rear axle. Using a brake on the rear axle means not being able to stop as quickly as you can with brakes on the front wheels, especially downhill, but again this hasn't been a problem for us. The four-wheeler doesn't go faster than I can jog. 6) The brake was very grabby when we first got it. I found what I presume to be an adjustment screw on the brake caliper of some type that was a little loose and after tightening it, the brakes got much easier to control.

I purchased this for my son for his 8th birthday. He worked and saved his money for 6 mos to help pay for it and and all his extended family donated money instead of little gifts for his birthday so he could afford the total cost. So this was his only gift and he was so excited! (I recognize this is nonessential info, but I think it's important for consumers to be humanized to corporate companies.) It seemed to work great out of the box (he only rode it a couple minutes per the recommendation to fully charge the battery before riding). Very easy assembly, appeared to be good quality, small as expected (based on the video adds featuring older, larger children who appear rather absurdly oversized for the vehicle ... but I assumed this was somehow as it should be). I now wonder how long the vehicle/battery life would actually last with those exact children featured in the video adds. The recommended age range of 8-14 seems nothing short of absurd to me. And this seems consistent with dozens upon dozens of consumer reviews. My son is a tall 8 and he seems too big for it already (but again, I expected this apparent disproportion based on the videos). While it seems adequate for the moment ... and possible for the next year or two (depending on how fast he grows), the idea of a 14 yo riding this is comical. I believe the age range is grossly misleading and should be more in the range of 4-7. However, that is the lesser of my complaints because at least I EXPECTED the small size from the dimensions and videos. What I did NOT expect was that the battery life wouldn't last more than 10-12 minutes (we have literally been timing it). I read the entire owner's manual (twice) and we carefully attended to the battery guidelines ... which were also quite disappointing on paper btw --- charge for 12 hrs for "up to 40 min continuous ride time." But we were entirely unprepared for the actual reality of not even 15 min of ride time for a $500+ vehicle. My son had a little $200 power wheels when he was 4 which ran MUCH longer. Needless my son is heartbroken and I am very frustrated. I'm not sure if we got a lemon or a bad battery or if this is simply what happens when you put a child twice the age/size of what it SHOULD be on this vehicle. I think it is important to note that I've seen this same complaint (dismally short ride time or "not working" after just a few rides) voiced numerous times in the reviews. I have decided to return this one and purchase the next size up in the Dirt Quad (as I just noticed that I can now purchase it for the same price I paid for this). I am very hopeful I simply got a lemon and the next one performs as expected. I will update this review when I have more info...

We did not start our daughter of any power wheel type stuff, so when we decided it was time for her to learn, we wanted something that was powerful enough to get her through the dirt in the backyard and we quickly learned a gas powered 110 atv was going to be too much too fast for her. This dirt quad is the most perfect learning quad to get her ready for a 110. This is perfect for teaching her the concepts of the throttle and the brake and taking turn slow, its great! It took her a full weekend to get comfortable and I'm sure by summer she would be ready something bigger. So far, the battery does well. The first day of consistent riding she did have to take brakes to let it charge, but it was a brake for mommy and daddy too! My husband thought assembly was going to be several hours, he was ready with a full tool kit, and he was done in 30 mins! I don't see it as a negative, it's likely because it's battery powered, the quad has a pretty loud rattling sounds when it's ridden. Overall, this was a great purchase!

I had a bunch of questions before I bought this, but I didn’t really get slot of the answers I was looking for, so here goes my review. Why this and not a power wheel? The frame is metal, it’s driven by a metal chain, the motor is a solid (though easy to replace) unit, and the tires are rubber. It lasts a little shorter than a power wheel, but the motor moves twice as much in weight. Is it dangerous compared to a power wheel? Yes, It’s faster, more ridged, heavier, narrower, has both a throttle and break, and will coast on hills. There is no speed limiter and the breaks will lock up. There is a lot to learn. Kids reception/reaction? This was not a jump on and go for him. At 2 his power wheel was much easier, he was familiar with it, and it had lights and buttons for horns and engine reving sounds. He never fell on his power wheel, but he never learned anything but steering on it. It took a half year to get him on the Razor. The Razor was work for him. He had to learn to throttle (the speed is variable depending on input), brake, not lock his breaks, drive faster, turn slower, and pay attention. He really did feel like it was a chore at first. As he got better, and could do everything and more he used to do on his power wheel, the power wheel went into the shed. When he rides now, he shifts his weight and keeps his head up, he’s 3 now and he rides everyday and loves it. How to make it safe? I followed him around for about three weeks with a tow strap wrapped around the rear handle so I could lift up the rear end or adjust his steering. When I ran with him on pavement it felt like it was about 6 to 7 MPH. He got a real helmet and goggles, the Razor straddles the line in between a toy and an ATV way to closely for it to not be mandatory. Is it durable? It does well, the bolts come loose because there is a lot of shaking. But the chain is good and has a shroud on it for protection. I called the warranty number to get a bolt that fell off, but it took six weeks to send it. Either way, if the motor fried tomorrow, I could actually get another one and replace it.
