Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

(2-4-2016) To Little Tikes Corp & Customers: My wonderful 2 1/2year old LOVES SLIDES, we spent majority of last summer; I'm talking about 6-8hour days, 3-4 days a week; at the best community park here in SE Fort Wayne Indiana. My Nycelina would spend about 10% of her valuable time weating and snacking, 5% resting her little body by my side (including poddy breaks), and 85% of her time on the multiple variety of slides available...once she discovered playground slides it was all over with ... Indoors, she would place pillows or use her mattress to slang from the couch to the floor... And she would do her best sliding down on her makeshift slide... Since Christmas I have been searching for a toddler slide that could be indoors or outdoors...from step 2 to alpine ridge, American plastic as well as YOURS TRULY: Little Tikes. I knew adventually I would "bite the bullet" and pay the outrageous price of 50$-200$ on a slide for my Nycelina. However I was not expecting to do it so soon! When I saw my daughter sliding her cinnioman toast crunch cereal pieces down slides on the back of the box ...I knew the time to purchase was now. However, $100.00 or more is hard for anyone in the lower middle class, single motherville, to spend on a single slide, I mean the 9-5 job barely covers bills..so buying a luxury is "priceless" to us.... WITH THAT SAID!!!! FELLOW PURCHASERS...THIS SLIDE IS WORTH EVERY DIME SPENT AND THEN SOME! The plastic is durable and so far has been able to endure the wrath of an energetic toddler PLUS her three ROUGH HOUSING BOY COUSINS! The slide itself was not difficult to put together once I read the directions (and had a man to help me; little me couldn't hack it)...and I truly believe if my daughter could sleep on it she would! Non stop fun for my daughter, her stuffed animals and her cousins..OKAY I ADMIT IT, MYSELF INCLUDED.. (Product weigh limit is 75lbs; I am a little less than 120lbs)... I had to make sure it was safe, other involved energetic mommies will understand ;)... The SLIDES SLOPE is wonderful for an indoor/outdoor piece .... My daughter is 32 inches in length and I would not suggest paying for a smaller slide for a toddlers first slide in general... TODDLERS GROW SO FAST..SO WHY SPEND AROUND $60+tax/shipping for a FIRST TODDLER SLIDE YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO REPLACE IN A YEAR DUE TO YOUR CHILD OUTGROWING IT? That was my first thought when I looked at the smaller version of the slide ... Now that it's all said and done with, I am glad I rationalize this in my mind and bought what I consider to be the wiser choice of the toddler slides now that is all said and done with...... She would not have as much fun sliding down a slide that was less than a foot to the ground once she sat on it... The bigger slide offers my daughter so much more joy and thrills not to mention the slide offers my toddler room to grow and still enjoy the slide for months and months to come .... COMPLETELY WORTH THE EXTRA 30-40$... Little Tikes was the brand that I went with because of the durable plastic that their product is made of. And most of all, the fact that it is not an Overwhelming Big and Bulky product for the indoors!.... It actually fits quite nice in our small/moderate home without looking tacky. I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT FOR CUSTOMERS WITH 1-3 YOUNGER CHILDREN... Please Note that between my sister and myself, we buy multiple brands and multiple toys for our children to have at home and at the grandparents homes...combine us and you have an entire toys r us for our total of 4 children...ages 2, 2 1/2, 4, and 6.. One girl (my baby) and her three boys!! Both genders LOVE THIS SLIDE AND HAVE HOURS AND HOURS OF FUN... BOTH SUPERVISED AND MODERATE SUPERVISION (not hovering).... This toddler slide has Wide Steps and Easy Grip Plastic to stop themselves from going to fast if they wish as well as the ability to be climbing up the steps to the platform to sit on with ease...This Specific Little Tikes Product Absolutely Exceeded My Expectations.... LASTLY TO AMAZON.COM, Thank you so much for FREE SHIPPING, FAST SERVICES AND DELIVERY!! Your company is always wonderful though :)
