This is the coolest dump truck! It has controls on the side to dump the bed, raise the scoop, and forward/reverse buttons. It even makes all the right sounds. It’s a little loud but nothing a little duct tape over the speaker couldn’t fix. Highly recommend if your child is into construction vehicles!

We love the truck. Especially my son and 2 year old daughter. It's bigger than what I had expected. This toy is good for anyone who loves trucks. We like the sound it makes. It sounds like the real deal. It gives a realistic feeling. It can be exciting for any child. I would buy a couple of these and give it to a couple of kids for Christmas or their birthday. Mine came with batteries but i strongly recommend that you change it. I don't like that mine looks used. The tires were dirty, a bit worn out as if was played on concrete, or hardwood floor. I love that it moves forward and it also reverses. It makes sounds as it moves. My son loves the fact that it goes up and down by pressing the button. He loves to dig and dump... He scoops his little toys with this truck. There are two handles, one is for digging and the other it to drop the load. But, you have to hold it up three different times for it to go all the way up or down. Overall it's a really nice you and I strongly recommend getting it for someone. It's pretty cool to play with.

My almost 3 year old loves this truck! It's very sturdy and has different controls, functions, lights, and sounds. The buttons can make it go forwards or backward while the levers control the front part and the back dumping part. The front goes all the way up so whatever is picked up can be lifted into the back bucket, then the other lever goes all the way up to dump it out. This is very exciting for him and sturdy enough to pick up heavier things like small rocks, sand, other toys, etc. There are so many possibilities of items to put in and drive around with. I was surprised that his favorite part is how it goes forward and carries things around after they are in the bucket. It has held up to his play, and I would consider getting this as a gift for this age group, especially for a child who loves trucks.

This thing is precious! As a mom of 4 boys, I kind of already know what they’ll like/dislike about a toy, or what they might not care about. This thing has everything they would want on a tractor-type toy. It has all the bells and whistles. It has a front loader that moves up and down with a push of a button, and a dump on the back that moves up and down the same way. Two separate functions, BUT, even more awesome, they can be done at the same time. It has a button to push to make it race forward or backwards also. And the best part is that it has sound that’s loud enough, but not obnoxious. Our little guys LOVE this thing. We’ve only used it on the garage floor, so I can’t speak to how it works on sand or dirt, but I don’t imagine it being a problem as long as it stays fairly dry.
