Piggyback RiderReviews of piggybackrider.com

Bought this as a gift for a friend who’s daughter is older than mine. I can’t wait to get one for my own so we can go on hikes together! Great customer service, fast shipping, customer for life!

I paid extra for shipping because we were going on a trip and I think they had it in the mail in about 20 minutes. Product was awesome.

Great product for out 2 1/2 year old. Now we can go hiking. When she gets tired she uses the piggyback rider. Works perfectly well. Well balanced and doesn't hurt the lower back.

Very easy to use! Our kiddo loves it! Looking forward to going for a hike with it.

Love it easy to use my granddaughter love it and so do we

First off, I wanted to love this product so much because I am constantly trying to get my kids out in nature and this looked like a great way for me to take them walking with me and get a little exercise at the same time. But after receiving the piggy back rider and opening it, my first thought was this is not worth the money. This product looks and feels cheap and while it may look safe for the rider, in my opinion it is not, and it certainly isn’t very ergonomic. The kids are not really secured, the “harness” they wear doesn’t fasten around them so if they slipped off the bar, I could see them not only whacking their shins, but also sliding out of the “harness” all together. Additionally, due to the narrow width of the bar that their feet stand on, my kids complain of their calves cramping after about 15 minutes. Over all, I’m out money because after both of my kids tried it out, they refuse to ride in it anymore. I think there are ways to modify it and make it more ergonomic and safe, but after dropping $100 I was hoping to use without having to do anything.

My daughter is at the upper end of the weight capacity, she is 4 but not ready to tackle full hikes yet. The pack part is comfortable even with 38lbs riding. I really like that she is right in my ear telling me about everything she sees, it’s a pretty cool experience to be at eye level and just talking. 2 negatives I see: I wish there was a Velcro piece or something to stow the bar when she’s off so it’s not just bouncing off my rear, and a wider bar so her feet could go outside my hips/ obliques would make a comfortable wear as well. Overall great product.

The guys and their kids I bought this for love them!
