Globber Explorer Trike 4 in1 Deluxe Play
2 reviews
We bought the Globber (and paid the hefty price premium) because it was able to grow with our daughter and convert from push trike, to pedal trike and finally to balance bike. As a push trike, I'd have rated it 5/5, however, as the time has come to convert to a pedal trike, we've realised that our daughter's feet are nowhere near to reaching the pedals and unfortunately the seat is not adjustable in the fore/aft direction. Our daughter is 27 months of age and of above average height. The warning sticker on the trike states that it shall not be used as a trike beyond 36 months due to weight limitations. I asked Globber if they had an adjustable seat and they replied that they don't. We asked other friends with Globbers and they had the same issue with seat positioning and their children not being able to reach the pedals.To be honest, the Globber is great as a push trike but as far as a pedal trike goes...it's just useless. I'd recommend saving your money by buying a dedicated push trike and then getting a Cruzee balance bike.

Fantastic toddler convertible trike – We bought this convertible trike for my son for his 12 month birthday. We have been using is frequently and he loves to ride around in it. The bike position with the harness has been great when son was smaller. He wasn’t able to reach the peddles but could hold on to the guard. He also loved to press the bell. We bought the deluxe for the bag and it’s so handy to carry things in. The shade is not huge but does provide some protection. We’ve recently converted it to a guided trike. It was easy to convert, no tools needed, instructions were easy to follow. It will eventually be used as a trike, and then balance bike. I was impressed that it had so many transitions in one bike.
