Redmon Fun & Fitness for Kids Adjustable Weight Bench Press Set w/ Barbell & Foam Weights

This is a great little manual treadmill for kids (of appropriate age)! It is solidly made of metal, and I've been very impressed. I had one little "glitch" and that was that one of the only plastic pieces broke (the belt adjuster) but I was able to fix that by running to the hardware store and getting a washer to hold the tension screw... so far, so good... and I placed the plastic cap back on, so it looks like nothing ever happened.As far as other reviewers with the smell... I believe that is just ridiculous. *Of course* there is a smell at first, it would be silly of anyone to expect it not to! It has metal gears and and belt that moves, it HAS to have a lubricant put on the internal gears, or it would rust and fall apart (since it is made of SOLID metal gears and welded metal tubes!). It would be useful to adults considering purchasing this to use some common sense, if your family can't tolerate smells for a few days, put it in the garage or a room with open windows. We put it in the garage for about 3 days and completely got rid of any odors for us before we brought it inside... but it was definitely the smell of gear lubricant (if you've ever smelled it, you know EXACTLY what it is --no mystery here).As for some reviewers stating that it's not safe, I'd have to say their child must have been too young (be it physically or mentally). All children progress at their own pace, but I can say this, I own an adult treadmill, and my child was constantly trying to walk/run on it... to the point that he would get on and manually "make" it run, (yes, he is that strong, lol!) even though it was unplugged. Now that is unsafe, and this little treadmill fixed that problem completely.Now he knows he has his own treadmill, I explained to him that I weight too much to walk on his, and he doesn't weigh enough to walk on mine --and he completely understood. ;) It's working out great, and WE are working out together!!! It's awesome to look over and see your little boy walking with you!

My husband was so excited to put this together for our newborn son. (It'll be awhile before he actually can use it, but this was too cute not to get.) The set comes disassembled in a box, it takes about 15 minutes to put together. The instructions are really easy to understand and read, you can just look at the picture and figure it out. The entire set itself is actually decent, I was surprised by how well made it was. It does have a little weight to it, so I'm not worried about hyper kids jumping on it. It's a fun way to teach a kid about fitness and safely mimic any exercises we do. I would definitely recommend this alone by how adorable it is, worth the money. :)

This bench is an awesome product for kids. It is very well designed and the assembled bench looks like it will be very durable. The frame is built of welded tubular steel with threaded fittings. The included tools will complete the assembly. I used a better quality phillips screwdriver to better tighten the phillips head screws though. If you want a great quality bench that is NOT made of plastic parts, this is the piece of equipment to buy. We bought this for a 2 year old going on 10 nephew that follows and mimics his mommy in a crossfit gym.

I bought this for our three year old, shortly after having purchased a Sunny Health and Fitness Magnetic Recumbent Bike for my wife. While the price between the two was fairly similar (this bike was roughly $35 cheaper) the juxtaposition between the general quality and ease of assembly was pretty overwhelming.My wife's bike went together like a dream, and even though I'd been a bit skeptical when we purchased it, I was really impressed with the quality of it. Based on that success, and hoping to find a good outlet for an exuberant 3 year old during a cold winter, we bought this for our daughter.To preface things, I actually really enjoy assembling things, and like to think I'm pretty good at it. This bike though, was more or less infuriating to put together. It does come with several tools included, which at first seemed like a nice touch. Sure, they were cheap, the wrenches were just punched out of sheet metal, but I appreciated the idea, and started the assembly process without bothering to grab my own tools first.As it turned out, of the included tools, not a single wrench actually fit the nut it was intended for well enough that you could even use it. They were either too small to even fit around, or so big that the slightest bit of torque would just end up spinning the wrench around the nut. I was literally able to tighten things further with my fingers.In that same vein, many of the included nuts and bolts were so thoroughly the wrong size, that they would have been unusable without a lot of extra little bits and pieces that I luckily had lying around. As the most notable example - the bolts for attaching the "body" of the bike to the crossbars that sit on the floor came with capped nuts. Obviously, you want to use those for a bike you're building for your child since they're nice and rounded, instead of just leaving the raw ends of the bolts pointed up for your kid to step on, but they can only be tightened down as far as the cap allows, so it's important the bolts are the correct length.The bolts included were almost a full inch too long, which meant that even if you put everything together as tight as it would go, the crossbars were still so loosely attached that the bike may as we'll have been duct taped on. I had to use a stack of washers for each bolt in order to make it work.Had it been for anyone else, I would have returned the thing right then, but no daddy is about to tell his 3 year old daughter that the bike she's been waiting for all week is a piece of junk and she has to wait for that to get straightened out... You figure out how to make it work, and since I had the pieces I needed anyway, I did.Finally got the thing together, despite a slew of other little adventures with poorly fitting parts and flat out terrible design, and while I suppose that technically, it functions, I have nothing good to say about it beyond that.There were no reviews available when I bought this, but given our previous success, I took a chance. This would be easily judged as terrible on its own merits, but having had such a great experience just a week before with a similarly priced bike for my wife, this easily ranks as the worst purchase I've made in recent memory.

To be honest, she loves it like her favorite jungle gym. She does get on it and try to emulate Mommy on the real thing. It is a toy, but it's a really good toy that lets her pretend. She also loves to put her dolls on the tread and run them back and forth. A fun toy. I was very relieved to find there were no sharp edges on the one we got. It's stable too. The only negative is that the tread is not really easy to walk on, it took her about a week to figure it out and actually use it as a treadmill, but once she did, she was getting on it constantly. Assembly had some challenges in getting the lower screws in. We managed, but plan some difficulty in getting them in (you should have a really good phillips to augment what they provide with it, that helps a lot).
