Good on Hard surface
Our son got this as a present when he was two. It is hard to pedal on grass and all though. So it was a house toy for a long time. The bucket works great and it is very realistic. We have had MANY hours of fun with this toy and it is very durable.

Tractor and backhoe
Very well built machine. Would recommend this machine to anyone with a little knowledge of assembling and reading instructions. There is fair instruction sheet.. Some assembly required is putting it mildly.
After an enjoyable assembly--WOW- what a great TOY. Very smooth operation.
Grandkids love it.

Fun In The Sun!!
Purchased this for my grandson, Joe, when he was 3. I've never pushed a toy more in my life! He's had a great time, but it was difficult for him to learn to pedal and it is rather hard to use in the grass. It's great on concrete, tho. He loves to wash it... loves to get it stuck in mud... loves when I pull him out with the riding mower! He loves to dig up the yard with a shovel and fill the bucket with loose dirt. It's definitely not sturdy enough to take on anything more than loose dirt and sand. But it's provided many, many hours of fun for him. He's 4 1/2 now and still enjoys riding and washing his tractor!

my son loves it!!!
I bought this for my son's 3rd birthday and he loves his 'dozer'; setting it up was easy although I think that it would be better to enhance the instructions/details in order to make it easier for 'beginners'. Adding text to the instructions might do it. For example, I did not notice first that you have to put the backhoe in a certain position in order to release the lock of the supporting leg. Would love to have additional 'trailer' to be bought separately to tow behind. Quality of product itself is good.

Perfect
We got this for our 3 and 5 year old sons for Christmas a few years ago and they play with it anytime they can. The construction is very solid and has withstood some serious useage. And, it was simple to assemble!

Great Tractor
My 3 year old absolutely loves this tractor. The functionality is amazing and my yard has the holes to prove it. The shovel works well and the backhoe is fun to use once you get it set up. The set-up part is easy only after you know how to do it, it's not very intuitive. The biggest drawback is I really wish they made one of these in an electric model as my son has a very difficult time peddling it over rock, especially, once you get the trailer hooked up.

Yoy of the Year
My son got this from “Santa” this past Christmas and has already put some miles on it plowing our driveway and the neighborhood....
He’s almost four but needs some help pedaling on the grass but on the driveway and road it’s full steam ahead!

Great product
My 4 year old son and 2 year old daughter love this tractor they play with it all of the time. Very well made, not hard to put together. Recommend it to everyone.

Kettler Backhoe Tractor
"My two-year-old boy (who's crazy about everything construction) and even six-year-old girl both love this loader and backhoe! He can peddle back and forth and operate the bucket & backhoe with ease, but he needs help to unlock the backhoe. When we have a neighborhood play day, every kid fights for a turn on this machine. Assembling was a pain though. Make sure you start early on Christmas Eve. I'd recommend it to all the little builders-to-be."

CAT backhoe
Perfect for a 3+ child. Probably the finest materials and construction for any toy I've ever bought. Very durable and works to perfection. I'm about to purchase the optional trailer to go with it.
