This is a second bike we bought for our daughter as she outgrew the first one. I would say it fit a child over 5 years old. It's very sturdy, the seat seems comfortable enough. Was very easy to assemble. My daughter is thrilled and that's most important to me! I think it looks really cool, I love the shade of pink, happy and rich. We store it in our shed during winter months and nothing bad happens to it - the paint hasn't chipped as of yet. It's a very nice, durable bike, recommended!
