So the Jeep looks sweet. Black on black - looks great. Instructions putting this thing together probably could have been a little better but I got it together. Let me say I have yet to drive it since it states upon initial ride the battery needs to charge for 18 hours! What?! I understand how a battery works but damn. Any parent knows this is a death sentence. Unless you receive and build this thing in secret you’re in for a world of hurt from your kid who has to wait that long to ride it. My son watched me build the entire thing only for me to have to say, “sorry bud we have to charge the battery.” Then on reading further you can ride for an hour then back on the charger it goes for another 12 hours.It is what it is but just thought, wow.Update: we’ve owned this for a few months now and man, the remote that comes with this is horrible. Never seems to want to pair and not mine has stopped working altogether. They tell you if it doesn’t pair to pull out the batteries and put them back in. The small back cover has a tiny screw in it so betweens rides you’re constantly plum screwing, pulling batteries out and in again to get it to work.

I think this is a great looking jeep for the money. The assembly was fairly easy and I moved quickly through it, it still took about an hour. When you get to assembling the bumper there is an amended different set of directions. No matter how well you do it you will have to remove the back bumper in order to ride the car the wheels Rub and actually my son on Christmas morning was welling up with excitement but I had to postpone it to take the back bumper off. the front sits up way higher than the back. All in all it’s a great looking jeep the lights go on and off the radio works to some degree but you could also plug in your phone with a USB it’s not super fast by any means and if they go over anything uneven there is some concern of them flipping, however the remote takes some of the worry out and works quite well. it will override them when they are turning into something they shouldn’t. So overall good for the money, looks great, can use a few improvements on future models.

Our very first "power wheels" type vehicle purchase and it has been just okay. Assembly wasn't difficult, but it wasn't easy either. I feel like some more things could have been pre-assembled. The overall quality is on par with the price, it is fairly decent. My biggest complaint is the lack of torque. It slows considerably on grass and seems to struggle on the slightest incline. We watched videos of this very same vehicle on YouTube before the purchase and they, misleadingly, showed this thing going pretty much through anything and driving over small dirt hills without any trouble. Obviously that one had been heavily modified, but there was no mention of that in the video or description. I have seen options for modifying it, adding a second battery for a longer run time, but these will void your warranty. Run time is sufficient IMO, it just needs more oomph (not speed, but torque).Anyway, it works and two year old loves it (which is most important). But just be aware of what you are actually getting. There may be much better options for just a bit more money. Especially considering this will be nearly impossible to return once unboxed and assembled.

Pros:Large (my 2 year old can't reach the pedal)Easy to assembleLooks greatCons:Remote is terribleTires slide very easy on certain materialsThe remote on this thing is really, really bad. If it wasn't for the trouble returning it, I would look for something that has levers for turn and speed control. The remote just has a basic on/off control. So it's full speed or stopped. Full turn or none. This results in your kids getting thrown all over the seat as the car jerks around.If your kid is old enough to drive it, then maybe its a little better as you can use it to stop them when needed. But as far as driving is concerned, I recommend you practice driving without your kid in it for 15 minutes first.The tires are also very slick. they look like off-road tires, but the only part that touches asphalt/concrete is the center, which slides all over the place on any incline/hill.Would I buy it again?No. I would probably look for something with a better remote, even if it cost a little more.

Okay so.Great little vehicle.Down fall!!! It comes in 2 boxes!!! Read the foot note on the description. So when you get the first box. Dont open it yet, wait until the second box (that you dont get a tracking number for). Because in that second box are the wheels!!! I have a very upset toddler because it doesnt go anywhere right now. ):Update...... 1 year later...The vehicle stopped working... replaced the battery. Nothing. Checked the all the wiring. Nothing. I am at a complete lost. Definitely a bummer it doesn't work anymore.

We've had this truck a little over a year and my son already can't use it. He's only 40lbs (25 pounds under the max weight) and it will only run for about 10-15 minutes before its dead. We've changed the battery to see if that helps but it didn't.My son is heartbroken and I'm mad that it barely made it a year with the price we paid.

Literally just took the car out of the box & noticed it is cracked on the driver's side. It may hold up while my baby plays with it but still - for $245 I think it should at least come in tact. I would send it back but then he won't have it by Christmas. Disappointed to say the least.

The instructions were not good at all.They were very tough to follow,should have a free video.

Don’t get me wrong this car is great it’s big and tough. It has 4 wheel suspension and the remote is great. But after about a year the reversed just stopped working. We where using it to drive around the neighborhood for Halloween and then the reverse just quit. It just quit working the forward works great but the reverse is not working at all. But we still use it and she still loves it

The media could not be loaded. The radio don’t work in it and I can’t see what the battery life of on it! Only used 3 times since buying for Christmas 2022! Is there anyone I can contact for replacement
