Finally, a steel shopping cart! May 23, 2009

The Melissa & Doug Shopping Cart was an unexpected find after going through screen after screen of overpriced plastic junk.
This cart is all steel, except for the plastic handle (which has a steel core), the folding plastic "kids" seat for a doll and the plastic wheels. This cart looks like the real ones in the stores and it's built to last! Assembly is a breeze, too.
The two front wheels rotate 360 degrees for steering and they are mounted on spring loaded "legs". If you child leans into the cart from the front or sides, it will compress causing a rubber "foot" to hit the floor and stop the cart from moving forward or backward. There are also rubber "feet" on the left and right sides.
The only "dangerous" thing I can see with this cart is where the plastic wheels are minimally covered by steel "fenders" for mounting purposes. I can foresee a pinched finger or two in our daughter's future, but you can't shield your children from everything in the world that might hurt them, nor do I feel you should. In this out-of-control P.C. country of ours, we're raising a nation of coddled kids that can't think or fend for themselves. OK, I'm off my soapbox!
One other thing, if this cart will be used indoors (and I'm sure it will be) it will be downright hazardous to your furniture. I have used the padded shipping material to create bumpers for the cart to try and protect our furniture. A little cutting with scissors and a few cable-ties and you're in business.
Buy this cart first, you won't be disappointed!
Well built and worth the $$$ May 3, 2009

My daughter had a cheap plastic cart that she demolished fairly quickly with the constant play it received. I bought this cart after reading many reviews and I am glad I did. We have had it for about a month and it is holding up wonderfully. This cart pushes smoothly and can withstand rough play. Very safe.

This shopping cart looks so much like the real thing - it's awesome! Not surprised, coming from the M&D brand. I didn't understand what the straight legs were for, until my dh showed that when you push down on the cart, it actually pushes down, onto the pegs, to make sure kids aren't jumping in the cart and making a car out of it - it will just stop and stay on the legs. Genius! I love that it has the folding seat for HuggyBear or Baby, or whoever my little girl loves at the moment. PERFECT toy. My daughter is 2, by the way. Younger than recommended, but I like to think she's a little advanced. :)Great Buy, Great Product!
Why didn't I find this when I needed it?!?! November 30, 2009

My daughter has always been tall and she has also always been a bit rough on her toys. She's a tomboy and has never really played with girls toys so when she began showing interest in playing kitchen and shopping at around age 3 1/2 I began looking for a shopping cart that would suit her height and manner of playing. Unfortunately I didn't find this one until yesterday! My DD is now 5 1/2 and is too tall for the shopping cart I got for her two years ago. We saw this one in a great toy store yesterday. Other reviewers have described the sturdy construction of steel and plastic. Another reviewer mentioned the very real concern that the heavy steel construction can be murder on your furniture. All valid points. I wanted to point out that this is a toy that will see a little one through some growth. If your child is tall like mine, or still likes to play grocery story at 5 1/2 like mine you will appreciate how tall and sturdy this toy is. I have to say that I've been pleased with every single Melissa and Doug toy I've ever seen or purchased.
Durable and lots of fun September 9, 2009

I bought this toy as a walker for my 1 year old son. He loves it since it makes him feel very special to have his own shopping cart that looks like the ones his mommy puts him into when they go out grocery shopping. It's been 1 month and he still uses it a lot. Very sturdy and will probably last through many children. Tip: Don't throw away the white foam packing material that comes in the box. Cut them to size and tape them around the front of the cart to protect your walls, furniture and appliances around the house. I would do it before the baby sees it for the first time, so that he/she won't get too curious about them and try to rip them off.
