10 best gurneys for kids
Children's wheelchairs (the second name is tolokars) are undoubtedly one of the most favorite types of educational toys for toddlers from 1 year old and older. These are bright and interesting designs in the form of cars, motorcycles or animals, on which the child can either ride himself, pushing off the floor with his feet, or push in front of him, holding on to the rim from behind. Some models are equipped with a string or a long handle with which parents can move the product if the little "driver" is tired. In addition to the entertainment function, such a vehicle also performs another important task, helping to develop the skills of independent walking, as well as training the muscles of the legs, increasing motor skills and improving coordination of movements.
It is necessary to choose tolokars based on the individual physical characteristics of the baby and in accordance with all safety standards. So, for example, the optimal height of a toy is one at which the knee of the seated person forms an obtuse angle, and the foot is in full contact with the ground. Also, a prerequisite is the presence of a limiter to prevent a fall back. And, of course, the device must be reliable, stable and durable so as not to break or roll over while driving.
The best wheelchair cars
Gurneys in the form of cars are perhaps the most common type of such educational toys. Cars with a support handle are suitable for children who are just learning to walk, as they are more stable and safer than designs on two wheels. For greater attractiveness, the products are equipped with various lighting and musical effects that make the game even more interesting.
5 Baby Care QT Racer
The most inexpensive model of our rating is suitable for skating toddlers from 1 year old. Due to the fact that the product is designed for a weight of up to 25 kg, it can be safely used by older kids (up to 5-6 years old). This budget design has the simplest design, but it is characterized by increased strength and convenience. Super light weight (1.2 kg) allows you to easily transport the machine to the street, and sufficient maneuverability helps to avoid "accidents" on the road. Although the device is sold disassembled, it can be assembled in just a few minutes. Bright colors and very cute cartoonish "appearance" make the toy especially attractive for young children.
Of the advantages, we can note the absence of sharp corners and a rotary steering wheel with a squeaky button. The disadvantages of most users attributed the lack of a back and a long handle for control. Also, this tolocar cannot be called 100% safe - there are no restraints in it, so the child can easily fall out if handled carelessly. Despite this, all parents, without exception, agreed that Baby Care QT Racer is the best choice for its price.
4 RiverToys Mercedes-Benz
The solid RiverToys Mercedes-Benz is the first "executive" class car for young gentlemen. A leather seat with a high comfortable backrest, thick rubber wheels that glow while driving, as well as "working" headlights make this model flawless in terms of design and one of the most comfortable to use. In addition to the impressive lighting, the car also provides sound effects - the sound of a horn and incendiary melodies in the style of American country. Also, thanks to rubber tires, Mercedes-Benz RiverToys makes virtually no noise while driving, smoothly moving on any type of surface. There is a sturdy removable handle at the back for support and control of the device, and a safety rim provides safety. Tolocar is powered by a battery, the charge of which is enough for about 2-3 days of full use.The maximum load that the structure can withstand is 20 kg, which corresponds to the standard weight of a 4-5 year old child.

3 Lerado L418P
Compact and bright, the Lerado L418P is perfect for outdoor activities. Unlike other models, it has a roof, and high-quality HDPE plastic, from which the body is made, has increased wear resistance and is not affected by the external environment. Of course, such a structure is unlikely to protect from heavy rain or strong wind, but for direct sunlight, the ultraviolet-blocking cabin will become a reliable barrier. Despite its "frivolous" design and cute applications, the car has all the basic attributes of an "adult" car: there are two side doors, a dashboard, an ignition key, a spacious trunk and even a twist-off gas tank cap. A seat with a backrest allows the child to sit comfortably inside, and the steering wheel with audible signals helps to liven up the promenade.
The model is designed for young users from 1 to 5 years old. Judging by the reviews, children are happy to ride this unusual vehicle. The disadvantages of most parents referred to the lack of a support handle and a fairly high price for this category of toys.
2 BIG Bobby Car NEXT
The German model BIG Bobby Car NEXT immediately attracts attention with its unusual futuristic design. This is a rather expensive toy, the cost of which in different stores can go up to 15 thousand rubles, but it fully justifies its price. The body is made of especially durable environmentally friendly plastic, which can withstand a weight of up to 50 kg, greatly extends the service life and makes BIG Bobby Car NEXT the best in terms of reliability.

The car has a swivel steering wheel, it also has an opening trunk, where it is convenient to store all sorts of little things you need for a walk. The padded foam seat provides not only comfort, but also hygiene - it can be removed and washed as needed.

The toy does not take up much space, it is easy to care for it and can be used both outdoors and indoors. And if the child suddenly gets tired of independent driving, the model has fastenings for a rope, with the help of which parents can carry transport with their child themselves.
1 Baby Care Sport Car
The best model, according to buyers, is the Baby Care Sport Car. In most online stores, the product is presented with the "Hit of Sales" mark, which indicates a great demand for the product, and on the well-known search engine service, this particular position received the largest number of positive ratings from users. Such a high popularity is due to the excellent characteristics of the toy - it can be safely called the safest. The design stylized as a modern sports car has a rounded body, a spacious seat with side restraints, a high ergonomic backrest and special footrests on which the baby can put his feet during a stop.

The best wheelchair motorcycles
Tolocars-motorcycles help to have fun on a walk, along the way developing a sense of balance and improving the child's physical activity. If wheelchairs are designed for kids from 1 year old, then motorcycles are recommended for riding children from 2-3 years old. Such models are narrower than toy cars, which allows the rider to sit more comfortably in the seat.
3 Coloma Y Pastor Mini Moto
The children's wheelchair motorcycle produced by the Coloma Y Pastor brand is a product of one of the largest European manufacturers of plastic products PP Polesie. The products of this company are in great demand among Russian buyers due to the successful combination of democratic cost, original design and high quality materials. The colorful and lightweight tolokar can be used for independent skiing by children from one and a half to three years old. For better stability, the model has three support points - one front wheel and two rear ones. To make it easier for parents to transport the motorcycle outside, there is a wide, comfortable carrying handle at the bottom.
In their comments, most buyers rate the tolokar positively, considering it very suitable for riding on the street. Unfortunately, we do not recommend operating the Mini-Moto indoors - according to parents' reviews, hard wheels can damage the floors in the apartment, especially if such sensitive materials as parquet or laminate are used as the coating. Another "drawback" is the rapid abrasion of decorative stickers on the body, which makes the toy look not too neat.
2 Orion Toys Motorcycle 2-wheeled
An inexpensive and quite high-quality wheelchair motorcycle from the Ukrainian trademark "Orion" is distinguished by its realistic design and increased stability. Like the rest of the brand's products, this tolokar is made of wear-resistant environmentally friendly materials and meets all sanitary standards, which is confirmed by the state quality certificate. The motorcycle is available in five color options, while the paint does not fade in the sun, does not crack, does not peel over time and does not cause allergies when in contact with delicate baby skin.

The stretcher is recommended for children from 2 to 5 years old, the maximum load is 30 kg.
This two-wheeled motorcycle model from Orion Toys is very popular with buyers. Most of all, the toy attracts with its reliability, comfort and stylish appearance. Only one nuance caused complaints - the lack of reflective elements that would make walks safer at night.
1 Brumee Speedee
A wheelchair-balancer in the form of a motorcycle is perfect for kids who have only recently learned to walk. The manufacturer recommends purchasing this model for children from 1 year old, since, unlike many other two-wheeled constructions, Brumee Speedee is specially adapted for this age. The absence of sharp corners, wide stable wheels on metal axles, a special contoured knee seat and an ergonomic seat make this tolokar one of the best in terms of operating safety. A bright, attractive design with sporty accents and a nice bonus in the form of a set of cute stickers in the kit make the model especially popular with little racers and their parents.

The best wheelchair ATVs
Four-wheel ATVs are a successful symbiosis of a tolokar-typewriter and a stylish open motorcycle. Such toys have a very presentable appearance and thoughtful detailing, outwardly resembling brutal "adult" models, for which boys from 1 year and older especially like them. Parents value this type of child transport for its stability, reliability and increased safety.
2 Baby Care Ready Set Out
The spectacular and elegant Baby Care Ready Set Out tolokar is suitable for both girls and boys - you just need to choose the appropriate color scheme from the 7 proposed options.

Of the additional options, one can also note a small luggage compartment under the seat, a steering wheel, the presence of sound and light effects.
The model is very popular with kids, and almost does not cause criticism from their parents. One of the few drawbacks that users pointed out is the large turning radius, which makes it possible to ride a typewriter only in places with a sufficient area. Also, many parents did not like the musical accompaniment installed in the gurney - in their opinion, the songs are too loud and not very melodic. Otherwise, there are no complaints about the product.
1 Coloma Y Pastor Transformer
Another worthy representative of the Belarusian industry in our rating is the Transformer tolokar with four wheels and an enhanced security system. In this model, everything is aimed at protecting the child from falling: there is not only a removable barrier and a "parent" handle, but also strong five-point belts are installed that securely hold the baby inside the structure. In addition, the toy has a removable footrest and a folding back. The wheels are made of foam rubber, which gives the ATV better maneuverability and a smoother ride. Also, a unique mechanism for varying the height is used here - due to the shock absorber located under the seat, you can easily adjust the stretcher to the individual growth of the child. If necessary, the transformer is compactly assembled, does not take up much space during storage and does not cause any inconvenience during transportation.
