A real blast even at this price! Jul 30, 2008
By HDS

This toy is just plain fun. Even for your kids! In fact you might have to get them one as well! It started when we ordered a couple for our two grandkids. Both boys. One barely walking and the other a 4 year old that doesn't know the meaning of walk. Once we got these put together we saw how much fun they were we had to find a reason to order more, so we decided our niece and nephew needed them as well.
The specifics:
1. The toy is easy to put together. All you need is a hard rubber mallet (a block of wood and a claw hammer works just as well), and a Philips screwdriver. (You will not need to put in any screws but you will need the screwdriver with the included socket tool to help you tighten the nut on the steering shaft). There is a good video on YouTube about how easy it is to put together.
2. The toy is sturdy. Check out some of the plasma car race video's on YouTube to see how sturdy this toy is. (In no way do I suggest this is the way to treat the toy, but the videos are entertaining.) In any case they state the toy can handle up to 200 lbs on a smooth surface. I can personally testify that it will handle a bit more than that with no problem. (Hey Plasma Car! How about a bigger model made for us full size 50 year old adult frame types. I am at a significant disadvantage when sidewalk racing because of the cramped posture I must assume when competing!)
3. The toy is fast enough for any toddler, and on a downhill slope can be a real thrill. Toddlers will find it fun and they figure out how to make it move without any instruction. They can also paddle it around with their feet as well. Believe me, they will make it move plenty fast with just a little practice.
4. The toy is expensive but consider that if they start at 4 years old they could ride it for 10 years or more. So it only comes out to about five or six dollars a year. How many toys can you say that about?
5. No motor. No fuel. No batteries. You might think that means no fun. But not so! Certainly it's not as fast as a dirt bike. But watching my 18 year old daughter cruise around the house made me realize that fun riding toys don't necessarily need motors. And since we won't let her ride the dirt bike indoors, (or even her bicycle for that matter) this becomes a fun alternative.
6. Quiet. Except for the giggles and squeals.
If you read other reviews you will see a couple of disappointed reviewers. As for being hard to put together, the ones we received went together easily. You will need a hammer of some sort, and some tool like a screwdriver to turn the socket tool but that is all. Fast and easy to put together. As to being slow, well it can be. It can also go fairly quickly. It's all in how you work the handles back and forth. Really, check out the videos on YouTube.
I think kids of any age will really like the Plasma Car. I highly recommend this product.

 Need a gym! Aug 02, 2008
By K. Simko
"kcs"
My 6 year old 65 lb child seems a bit too big for this car but she does like it. Unfortunately she can only use it in the house on our tile. We tried it outside and it doesn't work well on sidewalks or roads (on a cul de sac.) The companys video on their website shows a lot of children on these cars in a real GYM! Yes, that would be nice but where can you find a gym! Nowhere that I have seen - as a matter of fact gyms usually do not allow wheeled toys in them. Another problem is that the front wheel alignment is constantly needing to be re-aligned. Overall, kids do like this but I would change the age range from approx 3-7 and you really need a large tile or hardwood floor area in your home (unless you know someone who happens to own a gym!)

fanstatsic toy for a vairety of ages Jul 15, 2007
By A. Sawyer
I bought this for my one yr old's birthday- he was already riding on his 3 yr old sister's old push car, and I thought he would certainly get good use out of it in a few months. It is a great hit with him as well as with his sister. He doesnt get the wiggle motion yet, but will push it with his feet, and I can ride on the back with him on the front and we ride all through and around the house. My Daughter, never stops riding it, and this has helped explain the concept of sharing as she cannot resist a ride on the car in exchange for him using one of her toys. I am very impressed with the mechanism, the sturdyness of the car and how well it manoeuvres. I would recommend it to anyone with children between the ages of 1(if you are prepared to ride on it with them) and 8(I have seen our friends children have great fun with this). Best toy I have bought thus far! I suspect I will soon need to get another for my daughter to have her own.

Plasma cars x 2 Jan 09, 2007
By Grandma Marilyn
I bought 2 Plasmacars for my lower body disabled grandkids, ages 4 & 6 for Christmas. Putting them together required a hammer and intelligence but was essentially very straightforward. They are portable, easily used and very much enjoyed by my girl and boy grandkids. They are unable to use their feet so need to use their hands for locomotion, this was perfect for their needs. Plasmacars are also large and sturdy enough so that the bigger kids in the family can also easily use them without destroying them with their larger size. So far they are durable enough to withstand active children, including 3 large boys at play. Grandma Marilyn
