Huffy Princess Girls 16-Inch Bike Reviews
I bought this bike for my daughter’s 4th birthday. She loves Disney Princesses, and pink is her favorite color. I guess this is typical for most girls her age, so my guess is that if your daughter is like mine, she, too, will LOVE this bike. It is covered in Disney Princesses, sparkly jewels, and flower decals. The giant pink things in the wheel spokes are sparkly pink gems ( it’s hard to tell that from the picture.)
My husband put it together with just a few tools, and it seemed to go together fairly easily. I guess it took about 1/2 an hour, and I had to help a bit with holding things while he tightened them. The directions were a bit wordy, I prefer ones that show more pictures, and have fewer words. And the instruction booklet has several different styles of bikes listed, with various differences in accessories and parts. So you need to read through to find the correct style/model for this bike. But once you have it put together, your little girl’s dreams of a big girl bike will come true!
It is very sturdy, and solidly built. I’m sure it will still be looking good long after she outgrows this size bike. The tassels on the handle bars might not last that long, as it seems they break off fairly easily.
My bike came from FogDog, which I have never heard of. It was delivered quickly, and with no problems. So I have no qualms about ordering from this company again. They also had free shipping, and no taxes, so I paid the price listed, and nothing more. It arrives in a box which is covered in Princesses and shows the bike, so if it is to be a surprise, you may want to be aware of this.
So, in conclusion, I give this bike 5++ stars, and 5 stars to FogDog, with 3 1/2 stars for the assembly directions ( for 5 stars they need to have instructions written for this specific model, without all the different models included. )
It’s very pretty and my daughter really loved it. However, we ended up returning it after one day. The pedal fell off continuously. The manufacturer didn’t make the pedal insert area properly. Instead of spinning, the pedal would unwind itself and fall off. It was annoying at first then became dangerous as the pedal fell off in the middle of riding on the road. The floor model was doing this when we were trying it out at the store. We assumed it was due to over-use from the potential customers. It turns out that the bike parts are all made improperly.
