From the Manufacturer
It's like magic, but you don't need to be a magician to get it to work. The PlasmaCar is a mechanical marvel that makes use of that most inexhaustible of energy sources, kid-power, by harnessing the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction. It's so easy to operate; all it needs is a driver and a smooth, flat surface. The PlasmaCar is adult-friendly, too. For starters, it doesn't require an expensive power source that needs constant replacement. No batteries, no power-cells, no liquid fuel-just the occasional cookie or two. It's quiet too-the only sound you'll hear is the sound of its wheels. It provides kids with plenty of exercise, more so than most toys. And the PlasmaCar is engineered to be absolutely safe when used appropriately. It's been extensively tested, and meets or exceeds all significant international safety standards. Fully Assembled: 31" x14" x 16"8.15 lbs Please look at the videos on the catalog for installation.

Simple, Fun Operation
The Original PlasmaCar is a well-designed toy that provides a thrill that belies its simple, colorful look. Driving around the house, maneuvering nooks and crannies, and going in reverse never lost its appeal to our testers. They were surprised by just how much speed the car was able to pick up considering it's manual operation. Our testers found the PlasmaCar rides best on hard, flat surfaces. Carpet, grass, gravel, and other 'rough' surfaces diminished the toy's ability to propel forward.
Develop Motor Skills While Having Fun
The PlasmaCar rewards good hand-eye coordination and fluid movements and provides a fun way for kids to get exercise while keeping occupied. As kids learn to drive faster and more precisely, they will be developing motor skills. Young children who have trouble propelling the car forward by steering can still have fun on the PlasmaCar by pushing off with their feet. Because it has no electronics or motor, this toy is pleasantly quiet making it appropriate for indoor and outdoor use.
Turn the Steering Wheel and Away You Go

1) Please add a cushion. He is starting to feel his age and his keister is tender. Perhaps, it's the padded chairs at work - if he chose to sit in a plain plastic chair it would be easier but, for all your 25+ year old plasma car enthusiasts, a cushion option would be lovely.
2) They're too short. Now, they're a great height for the children who we bought them for - a perfect height, I'd say. My husband, however, is 5'7 and apparently, finds them too short. He has a cramp (so do I but it's in the form of a headache caused by trying not to laugh at him). He'd like an extra-tall option for the same enthusiasts who would like a cushion.
3) He would also like a motor - a little one, though (I'm so sorry, PlaSmart). Apparently, it is very difficult to get over the bumps in the floor and a motor would help him glide with ease. Personally, I think he could use the cardio workout but as he lay on the floor, holding his rump, cramped up from the short car and breathing heavily from the workout - perhaps, he should just accept that he should let the kids play with their own toys and he can go play with his PS4 instead!
Yes, there's my review - this thing is more fun than a PS4 and my husband is willing to cause himself bodily pain to glide across the floor yelling "wheeee", possibly waking up the true owners of these toys - the children. 100% worth every penny for such a great product!
My husband has already tested it out himself, and found it fun and easy to use (he's well over 200 pounds). This will be a big hit with our granddaughter and grand-nephew when they visit. :)
Putting it together on my own was fine, up until lining up the steering wheel to ensure it was on perfectly straight -- much easier if you have someone else there to help hold it steady.

I personally find it much better than bobby cars, as it is easier for the child to move it. Of course, like every other vehicle with wheels, it can be harder to drive on very thick carpets.
Qualche anno fa ne avevo presa una in un noto negozio di giocattoli per la mia prima figlia, passata poi ai miei nipoti che ancora ci giocano. Ricomprata per il piccolo, la nuova versione con le lucine sulle ruote è ancora più bella. Facile da montare e resistente.
Seul point négatif, en intérieur c'est forcément un peu bruyant et ça laisse quelques traces sur le carrelage, mais c'est plutôt prévu pour l'extérieur !
