Thinking about buying for my 2 year old who is 33 inches tall. Would her feet reach pedals?

All kids have different length legs so if she has squatty legs they may not reach. However I can almost guarantee that she will not be 33 inches indefinitely. It is a very good quality trike so it will work for her from the Pre pedal pushing phase to the "look at me I am riding with one foot on the seat!". I say buy it and she will use it in whatever way she is ready to. Enjoy!

the seat is adjustable. my two year old grandson rides it all the time in the driveway and garage.

She should be fine, my daughter has this car and she is a little bit shorter than your girl, she can just touch the pedals now, an you can adjust them when they get taller. She should get good use out of it

I think it should work fine. My 7 year old likes to sit on it and while she can't pedal it yet, she can touch the pedal with her toe at its furthest point.

there are no 'pedals' - the feet are placed in a fixed position and then the seat slides back and forth as you row... I don't believe being 5' 3 is an issue. I would think the height would matter if the person is taller than 6' 2 ... You can google this and see how it is used on You Tube ...

Your child most likely reach the handlebars but you might need pedal block extenders for the feet.

My daughter is tall and always was. Because there are no pedals I'd say you got more room than with a traditional bike. Unfortunately she has no interest yet in using it. She loves her scooter too much.

Should work fine. We got it for a 27 month old and he has troubles reaching the pedals.

I purchased the bike for my daughter who is 53" tall. She rides with the seat on the lowest possible position, and she is able to comfortably reach the pedals at this height. I'm afraid that a 48" tall child won't be able to reach the pedals quite yet.

I would recommend she be at least 3' 7" tall. The height from the ground to the seat is approximately 2' 3" completely assembled, although the upper frame bar that goes from the seat to the handlebars is a few inches lower than the seat. If she will be learning on this bike, these are the numbers I would recommend, but if she is already riding a smaller bike, she could ride this being slightly smaller than the numbers I give here. Our Granddaughter ferris loves hers, and she is approximately 3' 10" tall.

Most definitely. My son is 2 and measures roughly 37inches in height. His heel doesn't touch the ground yet plus he doesn't sit fully on the seat. There is definitely some room for growth

She may be able to ride it for a year or two. Mainly, her height is the answer because the seat doesn't adjust and her knees may bet in the way. My grandson is 8 yrs old and average height for an 8 yr old and fits him perfectly but his 7 yrs old brother just barely reaches the pedals and 4 yr old can't reach pedals at all.

My grandson who turned 2 in May but still can't quite reach the pedals even putting on the extenders. He is 32" tall. He sits & scoots around but it will be a few months before he can manipulate the pedals. It's a tad bulky for little toddlers! Hope this helped. Moral of this....have to sometimes see what we are buying...easy to order online but had I seen this first I would've waited until he was 3!!

Hi. I'm 5'6" and adjusted the seat to its highest setting for your question. I can still reach the pedals but it is a stretch for me. Hope that helps.

My son is about 3 foot 4 inches and he has a hard time reaching the pedals. I think just over four feet is a size that will fit in the truck easily. Depending on how fast he grows he should be able to use it for a while. I will say that the neither the seat nor the pedals nor the steering wheel are adjustable.

I bought this for my 3 year old grandson and put blocks on the pedals (and he is a bit tall for his age). So it would depend how long his legs are. Best to find one in a store and sit him on it (I did) to see if pedal blocks would work.

I don't think she'll be able to reach. My son was around 40 inches tall and 34 pounds last summer and he couldn't quite reach the pedals. That being said, we did use the trailer and he enjoyed it quite a bit. It got him out of the pull-along trailer that his younger sister rides in and made him feel like a big boy! He could reach the handle bars to hold on but just couldn't reach pedals. Hope this helps.

Would have to be a shorter 8 year old. My son got this when he was 6 and loved it. He will be 8 later this month. He still loves it but is almost too tall for the pedals. He is 4 feet 2 inches
