It's a ride-on, block set and building platform, all in one! The CAT Jr. Ride-On Dump Truck comes with a dumping bin, working horn, gearshifts, oversized wheels and authentic "big truck" sounds. Kids can hop on for a ride, or push it along. Includes 10 Maxi blocks. Requires 3 "AA" batteries, included. Measures 24"L x 8.5"W x 15"H. Holds up to 55 pounds. With realistic truck sounds and building blocks, the 3-in-1 Ride On Dump Truck makes working fun. Toddlers will have a blast scooping up toy bricks and small toys, dumping them out of the dump bed, and driving a vehicle for the very first time. Recommended for children from one to three years old, this dump truck helps young ones transition from crawling, to walking, to riding!
 Toddlers can ride the Ride-On Dump Truck when the truck bed is lifted up. View larger. View in riding mode. |

Perfectly built for little bodies, the 3-in-1 Ride-On Dump Truck is the right height for kids who still spend much of their time crawling and playing on the floor. Toddlers can easily roll the dump truck around with them as they walk or stand, supported by the ergonomic handle on the dump bed. With the truck bed up, kids can ride the truck facing forward with their hands low on the steering wheel, or with their hands higher on the dump handle. Although the truck doesn't unload on its own, the light truck bed lifts up and slides back easily. Made from tough, durable plastic with safe, rounded edges, this Caterpillar brand dump truck holds up to long days of play. Like the real thing, this truck stands out with a bright yellow and black design. The 10 included Maxi Mega Blocks attach to each other for fun building and connect to spots in the dump bed, to the left and right of the truck, and on the steering wheel. The same color as the steering wheel and its buttons, these blocks are red, black, and gray.
Realistic Dump Truck Sounds
As exciting as the building and dumping action are the fun sound effects the truck makes. Turning on this dump truck, kids are immediately transported to the sounds of a construction site. By pushing one of three buttons on the steering wheel, the driver hears the truck's engine starting up and blowing exhaust, the truck's horn honking, or the truck dumping. The truck creates engine sounds when pushed forward; rolled backward, it beeps to make sure no one's in the truck's blind spots. Whether or not construction sounds are a part of your daily life, the toy's realistic noises can grow a little tiresome. Thankfully, the toy doesn't have to be turned on to be played with and comes completely assembled. While this dump truck is too heavy for children to pick up, its design is compact enough for parents to move it with one hand from one room to the next, or quickly pack it in the back seat of the car. What's more, the 3-in-1 Ride-On Dump Truck is compatible with standard Maxi Bloks, allowing young ones to make even bigger and better creations.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Not as good as I hoped
I love the look of this toy. I purchased it for my godson (just turned one) who is a strong walker and typical tough boy. It looks cute as anything and I have been happy w/ all of my son's (2 yrs old), "CAT" tractors, trucks etc. I wanted to have the cool "big boy" present, unfortunately it doesn't hold up to a boy's love, The dump truck bed continues to fall off, which makes it easier to ride but a pain for mom and dad to put on all of the time. I expected much better quality. I wouldn't buy it again.

Great toy, horribly made
My parents got this for my son when he turned 1 a few weeks ago. It was immediately a HUGE hit. We set it up in walk-behind mode, and this is his favorite toy. He'd walk behind it, then sometimes go to the front to hit the buttons, then back to the back, etc...
2 days ago, we were showing somebody that it turns into a real dump truck as well, so for the first time ever, we unclipped the truck bed, and turned it into a proper dump truck. When we tried to set it up again in walk behind mode, the truck bed would clip, but immediately unclip. 5 of us tried for about 45 minutes to get the truck bed to stay, and it wouldn't. The way we ended up getting it to stay? Duct tape.
I emailed Mega Brands about this problem, and at my expense if I ship this one back, they'll send me a new one. Since shipping is about as much as the toy itself since it's so big, I passed, but I'm warning everybody that although this is a great toy, it's extremely poorly made. Now I understand...
Great Toy!
I bought this for my son for his 1st birthday. He loves this toy! He's now 14-1/2 months old, and he's learning about the "noise" buttons, so it's excitement has been renewed in our household. He's also just now able to get on and off by himself, and figuring out how to ride it on his own. This toy really does "grow" with our son. We can't wait for him to start hauling things around in the bed of the truck! I did notice that we have had to re-attach the bed 3-4 times, as it does snap off easily. But, I still think it is pretty well worth it for the enjoyment that our son has gotten from this toy. I would definitely buy it again.
