Great little “walker”. Definitely moves effortlessly across the floor. Grandson loves it! Works even upside down once he figured out how to flip it over.Update: The seller reached out to me and sent me a replacement Balance Box within a few days. There doesn’t seem to be any issue with this balance box. Baby started taking his first unassisted steps a few weeks before his first birthday . He still loves using his balance box and we will use it for his cake smash. Excellent customer service.Original review:I loved this little balance box it is such a shame it broke five weeks after purchase. I have the 14 inch extended size for tall babies. My baby is 30.5 inches tall. He loved this balance box. The wood splintered where the screw goes into to the wood. The screw no longer tightens leaving a gap in the table and making the legs lean on one side. It is no longer safe to use and my baby has not had it long enough to learn to walk. I am so sad and disappointed. He has only used it in the living room and he loves to play on it. I was planning to show my family this balance box at his first birthday and hoped to use it in when he smashes his first birthday cake. Can I have a replacement side? There is still time left to repair it. I can update once repaired.Not gonna lie the price is way too HIGH for my budget but I had to ask if this helps her to walk, is it worth it? Easy to assemble. Came with everything needed to assemble.Let’s start with issues: daughter refuses to walk. She will do some walking but steps are so big sometimes it’s like she going to do the splits in a forward motion. She will walk if I hold her up but bending over for long periods of time are too much for me. So limits walking time for her. And I can’t control the length of her steps from behind while holding her. Daughter hated it at first, I had to hold her butt up and encourage her at first til she got the concept. But she took off with it. I didn’t have to constantly bend over. I help her steer around the room with it. She has discovered to walk around to the other sides when she wants to change direction ( she cannot do this with other walking devices, you have to stay with her and pick her and the device up and change their direction. You don’t have to do that with this balance box). She can move/slide the balance to the left or right to adjust her direction. She cannot do the with other devices they only go straight forward. The springs on the bottom of the legs let her go from carpet to tile easier but occasionally there are issues of transition from tile to carpet but only occasionally. Does Great on carpet! Slides faster on tile, obviously, but she seems to be learning quickly to control it. I still stay with her (standing, not bent over, just in case). She no longer takes huge steps, this is in part due to the table (balance box) limiting the size of the steps.Overall COMPLETELY worth it!!!! She has even started to just go get it herself so she can walk with it! Completely overjoyed as she refused and wanted nothing to do with walking before.This is not something you can really give a baby without lots of help it seems. However, it does function well and my baby is able to balance and build strength with this tool. Not a walker really, but a good tool if you’re practicing none the less.Cool concept. Easy to assemble. However, I bought it because I was tired of my little one face planting. Not sure if it’s a combination of strength to make the springs work to stop movement, but once little one is down, it slides away, making it hard to stand up.The Little Balance Box really helped our little girl go from pulling up, to taking steps, to full on walking in just a short time. I loved the practical and minimal design of this push toy compared to others on the market. There’s no bells and whistles to distract from walking. Our baby just focused more on exploring her surroundings by pushing the LBB. Our baby loved looking through the clear top surface while walking around. It’s sturdy, maneuvers easily on carpet and rugs, but won’t roll away from baby on a wood floors.The Little Balance Box offers lots of educational tools on their social media page to help parents know how to help baby use the product to fill and when to expect baby to reach certain milestones with the product.As a pediatric nurse, I found that information to be extremely helpful. Highly recommend this product!I really like this table it’s perfect for my daughter who is pretty tall for a 9 month old however I did put bumper guards around edges as she’s bumped her head a few times trying to stand up I also didn’t like how it was so flimsy and easy to tip over I have to hold the table by the legs while she pulls up so she doesn’t tip it on her head with that said baby is having the time of her life learning to stand it really allows her to fully use her bodyI do think this table is overpriced BUT I'm glad I got it and it is well made.My daughter was racing around with it by about 9.5 months annnd she started walking on her own at 10. Did the table have to do with that? No idea.She does still walk with it sometimes since she can get going really fast, which she loves, but I also love that it's a tiny little rolling table. I will give her snacks on it all the time (suction bowls stay stuck to it) and she will push it, eat, park it, eat more.Overall, I'm happy with it. I did not want another big, loud, obnoxious toy so this fit that perfectly. And I think we'll continue getting good use from it even though she's walking!Zunächst einmal wurde der Tisch extrem schnell geliefert, was ich sehr positiv fand. Der Zusammenbau gestaltet sich kinderleicht und das fertige Möbel steht sehr stabil.Der Tisch kann spielend leicht geschoben werden, ohne wie manche Laufwagen zu schnell zu werden, sodass das Kind hinfallen könnte. Er eignet sich hervorragend zum Laufenlernen, hat aber den großen Vorteil gegenüber einem Laufwagen, dass er auch als Tisch genutzt werden kann. Somit verliert er dann nicht so schnell seine Nützlichkeit und die Investition lohnt sich wesentlich länger als bei den üblicherweise genutzten Lauflernhilfen.I believe that this could have taken only 5 mins to assemble if it weren't for the horribly drilled holes that don't even line up and one of them seems like it's stripped and doesn't fit the screws properly... it's basically useless now.. I was so excited for it and wanted it to work so badly... what a waste of $100 :/Just finished putting this together (super easy set up with clear instructions hence the one star), but I’m really disappointed because all 4 legs don’t touch the ground. It is like a wobbly table?! For the price I would expect more. Even if it works for little one to pull up on, it won’t be a study table down the the line. Not worth the moneyThis little invention is the best aid to help your little person walk. We have tried multiple walkers for our little guy but they tend to only allow one direction. This little table can go in any direction and it transitions so easily from laminate to rugs.
