Geospace Original Walkaroo Steel Stilts by Air Kicks with Ergonomic Design for Easy Balance Walking (Blue)

I am writing this review on Christmas day night. I bought these for my just turned nine year old daughter, who had specifically asked for stilts. I was a little but sceptical about these because it had an average of 2 stars, but I bought them nonetheless. Oh. My. Goodness. My daughter LOVES them. And I mean LOVES them. She has declared them her best present ever in 'all her years!!' Takes a bit of getting used to but by 3pm today she was off and there's no stopping her now. Her brothers and sisters are all clamouring for a go, they really have been the biggest hit. Such a refreshing change to buy something they love that doesn't involve a screen, headphones and expensive software!! Seriously, if you are debating about whether or not to buy these, debate no more. Just buy them. Amazing product, and I have a happy, happy daughter, so what more could I ever have asked for!!

Fantastic. Bought for special needs son who lives to do things by himself but struggles with practising. It is important for him to be able to achieve quite quickly or he becomes anxious. These are spot on and with the added bonus that his teenage sister and we adults can also mess about on them. Great buy.

Excellent product. Sturdy. My 9 and 12 year old mastered them very quickly and love them.

These work well

so much fun with these stilts .....fantastic xxx

Absolutely love this the family can enjoy this too

I can't comment on the product it self as it's a Xmas present for our granddaughter but I was very disappointed in how it was sent! When it arrived it was only in the manufacturers box it was wet! And the box was damaged this was very disappointing as it won't look good given as a present!

useable and fun.

I purchased these for my grandson’s birthday he’s seven we adjusted them to his height and he absolutely loves them it’s something to keep the kids active

I suggest these are good for older children and adults to use. The size can be intimidating to young children because the foot rests only go so low.

My 4 year old wanted stilts, and so I could help her to learn how to use them, I bought a pair for myself. I am about 5'6", medium build, and these are more than sturdy enough for me. The weight limit indicated on the package is 210 lbs. They would be too long for my 4 year old, who is about 42" tall - they won't adjust down to that size at all, but I think they're not meant to. I bought her a smaller pair of a different brand. I had stilts as a kid, but that was 30 years ago. I found that it came back fairly quickly with these. If you're just starting out, you will need someone to steady you as get on these things (that seems to be the hardest part). They adjust at convenient increments, have a gripper bottom that so far hasn't left marks on my wood floor, and are very easy to put together. I really like them and have no complaints. Now mommy gets to have fun, too!

I like them and my boy like more He e is learning and they come on time his birthday day. Thanks Marcelo

These are strong steel stilts that need to have more adjustability in sizing for different sized children. The hand holds are attached by a strong screw that is supposed to hold the telescoping shoulder shafts and leg shafts together. This is a good idea, but for taller children, there aren't enough holes at the top for these bolts, and for shorter children, there aren't enough holes at the bottom for the spring-loaded detents. They can be modified to work by carefully drilling new holes where needed. This is more satisfactory for shortening the stilts than it is for lengthening them. For lengthening them the hand hold bolts can't be inserted through both telescoping shafts. This makes it necessary to put a new bolt (1 and 1/4 " long by 5/16" diameter) and locking nut. Such bolts are available at Lowe's; I recommend stainless steel since these stilts will commonly be left out in the rain wherever the user drops them. This bolt is necessary, because the bolt that attaches the hand holds no longer holds the weight of the user. The spring-loaded detents are not capable of supporting the weight. It is questionable whether the detents are even needed. I rate this product as four stars, because, in my opinion, it would be unusual if they were usable by most children right out of the box.
