We've been using this since my son was roughly 4 months during tummy time. He hated being on his tummy to begin with, but this was a great distraction for him for him, and really encouraged him to lift his head up from the floor. We then started using this to improve his core strength for sitting. When he is older it will be great to support him for walking.
Overall this was a great buy and has be great for helping my son during different stages of his development. He really enjoys the buttons, music and lights of this toy.
Strong and sturdy. Lots to keep babys interest. Great for starting to take there first steps.
Weaknesses:
Sometimes pulls the shapes to hard and the whole thing topples

Great little walker for learning to get up on there feet, but also a great little toy to keep babies entertained. It has everything from music and songs to teaching shapes and numbers. A brilliant all rounder.
My daughter loves this its mainly stuck on the songs as she loves music and dances along. She got straight on it and walked along. Her walking is getting better and now shes close to walking.
I love this walker I've had it with every child and it always pleases them and keep them occupied for a long time it's just the right height for early walkers but also you can take off the activity part for the babies that don't walk yet never disappoints even over time
I had a pink one of these for my daughter and found it so sturdy. Before she was ready to stand or walk we took off the activity plate for her to play with. She loved the small door that opens and closes.
Once she was older she then used it to stand and eventually walk. As we have carpet there was no issues with the walker running away from my daughter and she never fell when using it.
I will soon be purchasing another for my son.
My mother in law has this one at her house. It has survived a few grandkids! And still looks good. My 2 and half year old still likes pressing the buttons. The front can clip off if you want it to.
Very good quality and he helps the child maintain balance. My daughter loves to play with him. She is already alone but still likes to play with him. She loves the sounds of animals.
Have used this for my kids. My youngest currently uses it. It gives him more confidence when learning to walk. It's entertaining for him and the fact the activity bit comes off is a bonus. Great for taking out as it provides him with a toy as well as a walking aid.
A very nice toy for both a baby and an older child. It has a lot of cool and interesting features. Music, buttons, knobs and lights are very appealing to the child's attention. Stable in running and supporting the first steps.
Sometimes trying to clean all little bits can be annoying

Fantastic walker, used for both my children, lots f entertainment for them and several songs. Strong, durable and lots of bright colours. Extra bonus was the to detaches from the front so was great to use as a distraction for my fussy eater little boy.
Got this for my boy for Christmas (he was around 8 months). Couldn't walk with it for a little while but he had great fun with all the buttons! Once he started walking with it, we couldn't stop him and now he's a walker he walks very well. I think this has been a great help rather than using a sit in walker.
This is a fantastic toy that can be used from a very young age until your little one is walking! The frame itself is sturdy and colourful with an activity play tray that can be removed. The tray has a variety of buttons and lights that retain interest for a long time! My little boy was obsessed with removing the phone and hanging it back up as it spoke everytime he did so! As your child gets older this toy becomes educational too, with numbers and colours. The walker is great for children learning to walk and allows them to travel confidently around the room. My only slight negative opinion is that the wheels move quite quickly and are very slippy, which means it can slip away from wobbly standers quite easily! I would recommend this toy and would suggest looking for it on offer as many supermarkets offer it at a good price.
Sturdy, easy to use, board comes off the front to play with

My daughter used this when she started walking, it was really good at giving her the confidence to actually try to walk, the lights and sounds and phone were played with loads even when she was walking independently so it’s definitely worth the money for the amount of time it’s used.
My daughter loves this walker, it is one of her go to toys at the moment. It has helped her start walking at the age of 8 months and she always looks like she is having so much fun. Lots of fun activities to do on the front and cheerful music to listen to as well. I do wish the phone was attached to it with a bit of string like the shapes, just so she doesn't keep losing it, but there is no complaint . It is easy to clean and hasn't ran out of batteries yet!
This product was perfect for my daughter, she loved using the front of the walker and would sit for ages playing with it and all of its different functions. She especially likes to spin the cogs. The product was perfect for when she was trying to walk as it was sturdy enough to support her. She could also pull herself up using it and so really helped get her independent.
I got this from a friend hand me down, and it kept her busy it's so handy that the front comes off to play with separately, she loves the sounds and the phone toy. Such a good walker.
It's very helpful for baby's first steps. The colours are very attractive. The only thing that could be better is that there should be a breaker. It's very easy for baby to fall down. But overall great buy.

Brillent walker my little girl uses downfall are the wheels need some rubber tread so doesn't move so quick from under neath them. The activity board can be taken of an played with by its self then just connects back to walker clips in place. Study doesn't tip but like said I had to put some rubber tread to wheels and sliding to quick

We didn’t actually use for very long as my son started walking confidently at 10.5m but he loved playing with the front of this and using it to get where he wanted. It’s very durable and we’ve now passed on to a friend for their baby. Would highly recommend - well worth it and certainly helped my little boy gain confidence with his walking fast.
Love this but price is quite high. My little one likes to push it along. I like the fact the front comes off so it can be played on the floor. Lots for him to learn from.
I was extremely lucky and managed to get this at Tesco reduced for £15. My seven month old absolutely loves it...she's even mastered standing up leaning against it after three days so I think this is definitely going to play a massive part in helping her eventually walk.
Firstly the detachable keyboard in the front is fabulous making it appropriate for all babies who can sit up or play during tummy time. My little one loves it still.being attached and then reaching up to play with it which is helping massively with her gross motor skills. The actual keyboard itself although does come off easily can be a bit tricky clicking it back into place as you have to like the bottom bits up but it isn't too difficult just a bit annoying when you can't do it first time.
The board itself is full of lots of different colours and shapes. There is two modes to it .. a song mode and a learning mode so again fabulous for even younger babies who like musical toys and then can be used when they get older for learning.
It's really easy to put together...easy to clean and very sturdy. I can't wait till my little one is more balanced and able to push it round .. I truly believe this is going to help her with her walking in the future.
Although it's pricey I would definitely recommend it.
This helped my son walk! He was so interested in the from interactive part that he learnt to pull himself up with it and then it wasn't long that he learnt to walk with it! It's so simple for them but fun as Well!
