 Very surprised how well this extremely abused toy has lastedDec 06, 2008
By Grandma from Lexington
We bought this horse last Christmas for our youngest grandson who was then 3. We put it together and didn't think it would last very long....were we WRONG?? The horse is a very much loved toy and as he has a brother 2 years older and a sister 3 years older it is in CONSTANT use daily!!! Both the boys are autistic and the abuse this horse has taken is nothing short of a miracle!!! He still talks etc. and he is jumped on and used as a spring board to fly over his head onto the couch or any other soft landing place they can find. I have even seen him standing on his head!! I wish every toy we bought held up HALF as well. It was worth many times what we paid for it.

Love the horse!Dec 01, 2008
By L. M.
I purchased this horse for my daughter's 3rd birthday, and she loves it. My older daughter is almost 5, and she loves it as well. After reading other reviews, I'm guessing that the model has changed slightly, since the batteries are now easily located in a hidden pocket right along the horse's mane. We haven't had problems with the buttons in the ears making sounds, although I find that my girls don't care much about the sounds anyway. We've had this horse for about a month.
The one thing I wanted to mention was a problem with the assembly instructions. When putting the horse together, be sure to place the red tube spring covers onto the bars before attaching the horse! The instructions don't tell us to put the covers on until AFTER the horse is attached, and then it is too late and everything has to be disassembled, which is a lot of effort. Hopefully this error in the instructions will be corrected soon.
The horse is surprisingly light, and can easily be moved to different rooms.
My kids also climb all over the horse, and stand on it's back (while holding on to the bars.) If your child is very young and you worry about them climbing without supervision, then you may want to wait a bit.
Otherwise, a great horse! My kids play with this horse daily- much more than any other toy they've ever had. We also received it in CA from Amazon with free Super Saver Shipping in just three days!

Tek Nek Lucky Plush Spring HorseNov 25, 2007

You can see the full specs on this toy at the manufacturer's website at http://www.teknektoys.com/pc-1056-7-rock-n-ride-lucky-deluxe-spring-horse.aspx
This toy requires 3 double AA batteries to work. So, if your sound stops working check to see if the batteries need replacing. The battery pack is located where the on off switch is on the underneath side of the horse. This is a very good play horse for kids age 18 months to 4 years. I feel it develops leg muscles and teaches coordination of movement. It also teaches horse sounds, associating the sound with the animal. My grandson loves it.

 Great Fun For All KidsJan 14, 2010
By David
I got this on a lightning deal before Christmas at 1/3 the price it is now. I got it partly because of the memories of the spring horse I had when I was young. Many things have changed since then. Mine was a hard plastic with the springs exposed. This horse is well built and was fairly easy to put together. No more than 30 minutes from start to finish. I did have to change the position of a couple of factory connections when set up to make it right. The instructions were good enough to follow. It does help to see a picture of the finished product and then the rest or most of the build is intuitive.
It plays, "I'm a Little Pony" song and 4 phrases: "I love riding with you because we have so much fun together", "I'm your talking, singing pony friend", "I like hugs. When you hug me, you can feel my soft fur", "Hi friend. It's a beautiful day for a ride. Let's go". The mouth moves as it talks.
There are three sound settings: Off, Try Me, On. In the Try Me setting, all the sound, songs, and phrases are said. In the On setting, the only difference is that the galloping sound plays anytime the horse senses movement when the child rides on it or if you walk past it. There is a low and high volume switch but it doesn't seem to be too much different in volume. The product comes with batteries but as with many products that come with batteries, they may not last very long and must be replaced to continue hearing the sounds. The battery pack is in a velcro pouch on the neck by the mane. For those reviews that say the sound doesn't work anymore, my advise is, "Change the batteries."
The fur is soft. The saddle doesn't seem to slip if the child is sitting on it. It is easily removed to ride bareback. The weight limit is 120 pounds so it should work well for most kids between 18 months and 4 years. My 12 year old daughter could ride it based on the weight limit. It is a safe toy to ride responsibly. If you have your young children on it, by all means stay with or near them as they ride. The horse does not tip if ridden even mildly rough but can tip if the child leans to the side.

My son loves this horseApr 11, 2010
By Megan F.
My son loves this toy. He's a little bit young for it -- 17 months -- but he's tall so he can reach everything just fine. The horse wasn't super easy to put together, but given how sturdy it is and how much fun my son has with it, it was worth the effort.
The thing that really surprised me was that he LOVES the song that plays when you squeeze the horse's right ear. When I realized it had sound I groaned, thinking, "Just what we need, another noisy toy." But it seems to be teaching him about rhythm. He won't start rocking until he gets the song going, and then he rocks right in time to the music. Very cool.
The horse seems to be set up pretty safely, too -- not like the one I had when I was a kid, which had springs showing everywhere.
All in all, this is a great toy, as long as you have a big enough space for it.
