This is pretty fun. Connecting to the remote was quite simple. To make things a bit simpler, I used my own tools rather than the ones that were supplied. I only used a ratchet with a 17mm socket for the wheels and a ratcheting screwdriver. However, if I didn't already have my own tools, the ones that were provided would have functioned perfectly. It fits in perfectly with my two boys, who are 6 and 8 years old. Low speed appears to be between 1 and 1.5 mph, whereas high speed is between 2.5 and 5 mph. Although the steering can be a touch tight, my 6 year-old quickly got it out and appears to be handling it just well at this point. The party wagon looks fantastic overall, appears to be of excellent quality, and has many small touches that.
