Order Skuut Balance Bike


I did buy two Skuuts at a local store for my twins (before readng all the reviews here :-(
I can only say workmanship is marginal: Some of the plywood delaminated, hub pieces split (however this is just cosmetic, so it did not bother me much), but now it turns out that all the hardware comes loose (must be the dry fall weather) and will get lost! Once you loose one of those strange pieces good luck finding replacements! No help from Skuut (do they ever answer phone/ e-mail?). Now the other reviewer with similar problems mentioned home assembly, but make no mistake: the wheels (which fell off in both our cases) are factory mounted.
Now this is a safety issue as well, if you have seen kids racing around on Skuuts you know that a wheel suddenly falling off is no laughing matter.
If you order a Skuut, go ahead, order some Locktite as well and put it on ALL screws, not just the ones you put in.
Now to close on a good note: The Skuut is great fun for the kids as long as you can keep it rolling.Get more detail about Skuut Balance Bike.
