This sandbox digger toy has wheels so your child can move it around like a real backhoe. For Fall of 2016 we have improved the toy with a wider front axle and longer base for more stability. Meets USA ASTM F963 tipover test and is CPSIA standard tested.The digger features large washers on the moving joints. The washers are big enough to keep kids fingers out of the tight area of the joints as they move.This is a unique safety feature.
Built for years of use, this European styled digger will help kids develop balance and motor skills while having hours of healthy outdoor fun for digging sand, snow, leaves, or dirt. Comes mostly assembled. You need to put the wheels on and the seat and put the digger on the base. Assembly time is about 5 minutes.
The toy has a durable outdoor powder coat to resist fading. It is heavier built then most competing wheeled diggers weighing in at 13lbs with a 17lb. shipping weight. The digging toy can be used in the sandbox, in a gravel or dirt pile, at the beach on a pre school or school play ground, at the park. It easily folds down to transport to your favorite outdoor play area. Some people even set up a sandbox in the garage or on the deck or use balls or foams fill to create a play digging area indoors. Seat height to where the child sits is 15" As far as the weight limit goes, remember the digger toy is built size wise to fit children comfortably not adults.
Childrensneeds is a small family company that was one of the 1st to sell diggers in the USA and continues today with a full line of quality diggers. We don't try to have the cheapest low quality diggers but specialize in high quality diggers warranted to last.

Description
Unlike other sand diggers, our sandbox backhoe toy has large washers to prevent little fingers being pinched. We invite you to compare this Childrensneeds digger tpy to similar sandbox diggers. Our backhoe toy has bigger bolts and nuts that make the joints last longer rather then the typical small rivets most competitors use. With the nuts on the joints, if you need to tighten or loosen the joints you can. On diggers with rivets, if the joints don't move easily, you have no options. Remember on the joints to use a kid safe food grade lubricant for smooth operation. The backhoe rotates 360 degrees and the bucket extension is designed to not get stuck in the "out" position. Our ride on excavator toy is built with a heavier bucket then similar looking diggers of competing brands.. The Children's Needs Backhoe is the child friendliest sand digger on the market.The Childrensneeds toy digger will help your child develop such skills as eye hand coordination, which is the basic for writing, crafts, and other fine motor activities. The sand digger also builds precision skills, endurance. Kids dig for hours of plain fun and exercise. Seat height to where the child sits is 14"
Use this toy in sand, snow, loose dirt, pea gravel. Easy to fold up and put in your trunk and transport to play with at the park playground, beach, or in the yard.
We will repair or replace if it breaks in the 1st year. Compare that to other toy digger warranties if you can find others with a warranty..
