Customers like the control of the bicycle. They say it is responsive, and easy to steer with one hand. The handle for steering makes it easy for teaching children how to ride a bicycle. The steering concept from the rear is brilliant, and for the parent to push also controls the steering.

Customers have negative things to say about the steering of the bicycle.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
One thing I didn't see anyone mention in the reviews we read before we bought it is that the parent handle pops on and off on the fly (you don't need to screw it on and off, and it's not going to be jammed on there until the day your kid no longer needs it). In other words, you can take it off to stash the bike in your trunk on the way to the park, assuming it fits. Without the handle, it fits easily in the back of our 2010 CRV.
The ugly stickers on the fenders arrived warped and dented due to mishandling during shipping (it came in its own box), but they can be easily removed, and the dents aren't a big deal. My husband spent a solid hour fixing a stuck back wheel when it arrived as well (someone less-mechanically skilled would probably have had to send it back). While the fenders are flimsy as others point out, they do serve as useful mudguards. The training wheels are extremely sturdy and hold the bike up with my son on it even when I'm not using the handle.
This was way, way better than a tricycle in spite of the minor quality issues.
First, I wanted a quality toddler bike that does not promote any characters (since children tend to grow out of their obsessions) and one that was unisex. All of the Huffy 12-inch bikes were covered in characters, so this Schwinn bike was the winner. The color is more of a burnt orange rather than a red, but it's not blatantly boy and could definitely be used for a girl (since I'm not fond of purchasing everything in pink or purple for girls).
Second, I read other reviews describing how helpful the posterior removeable steering handle is, but until my son actually sat on the bike, I didn't realize how absolutely necessary and helpful this handle is for parents of first-time bike riders. My son is very short, but his feet can reach the pedals with the seat all the way down. However, he cannot yet pedal but can still enjoy riding this bike due to the helpful posterior handle. For adults the handle is a blessing because one does NOT bend over uncomfortably the entire time while pushing. The handle allows for easy, smooth, comfortable steering and safely helps guide a toddler who'd rather steer himself. We have comfortably been able to push our son for as long as he'd like around the house or down the sidewalk only because of this handle. Even my father with Parkinson's loved pushing my son around only because of the handle which gave my father support and easy maneuverability. No other 12-inch bike had such a handle, and now that we have a first bike with a handle, I would never consider a first bike without one.
Third, the bike chain is completely enclosed. The Huffy bike chains only have a guard on the upper part of the chain, but this Schwinn bike's chain is completely enclosed. And I much appreciate this safety feature since I have an extremely curious toddler who would absolutely explore a dirty exposed chain if there was one.
Fourth, this bike includes a bell, and my son loves ringing it as he's riding.
Fifth, the seat is an appropriate size for a toddler who is any size.
Lastly, the bike was easy and relatively quick to assemble, and the parts are durable and strong.
Pros:
1. The handle for the parent/ older kid is awesome. Helpful for when the toddler gets tired as well as helping/correcting the steering
2. The seat lowers all the way down unlike some that still keep an inch of bar showing so it works for kids slightly shorter than most 12" wheel bikes
3. The handle in the back is relatively easy to remove and replace when needing to toss it in a trunk to take the bike to a park
4. The water bottle holder holds most toddler size drink bottles, you don't have to use the water bottle it comes with
Cons:
1. The bell is junk. But a better one (ours broke within 24hrs of toddler play)
2. The training wheels ride a little high, even in the lowest position, so the bike feels like it will tip easy (doesn't really though) and wobbles a bit more than I would like.
3. The pedal will not stay on!!! Biggest complaint and reason for not giving a 5⭐️ Constantly having to tighten the pedals on both sides. They are tighter on the side near the pedal rather than the side near the screw end so gradually over a couple days of use the pedals start unscrewing from the bike and you have to tighten them both back up again. Very annoying and my 2yr old isn't even doing major distance yet.
