Melissa & Doug Toy Shopping Cart With Sturdy Metal Frame

This is very sturdy... I bought this for my great granddaughter 4yrs old.... I babysit her twice a week.... On the the last day I take her to the dollar store and then to the market to let her pick snacks... I get a kick watching her shop, lol she does it with confidence.... she looks so cute pushing it through the isles.. She gets alot of attention lol and she eats it up.... Great memories for me, and I hope for her.... do I recommend this, yes definitely...

This is ADORABLE! My grandson loves it. He loves zooming through the house filling it with toys. He is 2 and a half years old and this is the perfect size for him. It was easy to assemble, and very durable.

My 8 year old daughter saw this cart at a local shop where it was used in a child's play area. She fell in love with it and wanted one to go along with her toy cash register. So when we got home I looked on Amazon and was surprised at the price of the cart. I was thinking it would be a $30 or less item. So I searched all around and couldn't find a better price than the one offered here at Amazon. I thought about it for weeks before ordering. There were many other carts out there for less money but none of them got the glowing reviews that this little cart got. I finally bit the bullet and purchased the cart and I am so glad I did. My daughter plays with it every single day. She and her friends go "shopping" and fill the cart with items from our pantry. Then she rings them up at her cash register and bags them up and brings them "home" so she can put them away. It's a wonderful teaching tool as one day she will be a wife and mother and will have to do these things for real! She and her friends get so much enjoyment out of this toy that I am sorry I didn't get it sooner and all of the play time has made it well worth the money I paid. It's simple to put together, very sturdy, won't tip due to thoughtful construction on Melissa and Doug's part and it will be a toy that my daughter can some day pass along to her daughter. I think it will last forever as it's made from real metal that is very thick and strong. It seems like my daughter is going to be too tall for it maybe within the next year or two, but I honestly don't think that will stop her from using it! I wish they sold a taller version or could turn the handle into an adjustable height handle. That would be the perfect solution so that taller kids could use it. My daughter loves to put her doll or purse in the little seat up front as well. It's a great toy that gets and A++ review from this buyer!

My daughter is 2 and had been pushing around a plastic kid’s chair saying it’s her “shopping cart.” My mommy brain immediately added it to my list of things she MUST have haha. I came across this shopping cart on FB Marketplace but it was sold before I could get my hands on it. I was shocked to find the original retail price to be INSANE. It went on sale and that’s when I decided to just buy it. No regrets. It was still more than I would’ve wanted to pay but it fully functions, is very sturdy, it’s adorable, and will last a long long time. I chose this over other options including the plastic ones because it really is like a real shopping cart, rotating wheels, functional seat, great basket size, and it had the best reviews overall. No issues putting it together. My partner didn’t even look at the instructions. Get it on sale. I would not pay full price for this even though it’s very good quality for a kid’s toy. Only thing—I wish it had the bottom area like real shopping carts!

Just got the cart for my 1YO daughter and right out of the box it’s apparently clear that this toy is built with quality and durability in mind. It’s a lot heavier than I expected it to be, which is a great thing, as my daughter is still learning to walk with assistance and I think it’s very improbable that she’ll be able to tip it. It rolls smoothly and the front wheels have a spring mechanism that will stop it from moving if there’s too much weight inside the cart (what an awesome idea!). As for durability, this thing is SOLID and will probably outlast generations to come. They simply do not make toys like this anymore and it’s amazing to see a company putting out quality toys like this in today’s day and age.

So happy with this. Sturdy, easy to assemble, 20 month old grandson LOVES it. Also bought it for 2 yr old granddaughter AND SHE LOVES IT. Just a touch big, will be great until 5.
