Gave this to my two-year-old daughter for Valentine's Day. She loves it! It's nice and sturdy. In addition to the big ladder on top, there's a small ladder on each side. She can slide these out and put them back in without help, and she does this over and over. It is not really designed to use figures, but she manages to put little plastic animals into the cab to be the fire fighters. I'm attaching a picture of her taking her nap with the truck.
I just can't say enough about ALL of the Green Toys products and this fire truck is no exception. The quality of their products which come from recycled milk containers and recycled plastic bags is absolutely incredible! To be quite honest, we were not looking for Eco-friendly toys, but rather durable toys that would stand the test of time. Green Toys offers the best of both worlds; a quality durable product with the advantages of a completely Eco-friendly product (yes, the packaging is Eco-friendly as well) AND a decent price! We currently have numerous Green Toys products which include the following; tea set, stove top, flying disc, gardening set, school bus, dump trucks, garbage truck, tractor, seaplane, helicopter, ferry boat, and cement mixer! Our children are not easy on toys and Green Toys durability has surpassed other "name brand' products we have owned. Considering these toys are all produced from the recycled materials stated above, just makes these toys that much more amazing! On another note, Green Toys are made in USA!
My 1 year old loves this truck! it was much bigger than I expected which was a plus, but probably a big bulky to travel with. He whines sometimes when the wheels don't roll as smooth on a high pile rug, but life just isn't fair sometimes. The side ladders are removable so if he can get them out he'll chew on them, but I think they're fairly secure. He's pushed it off the ottoman, couch, and table and it has held up just fine.
I cannot say enough good things about this toy. We bought this for our daughter for her 3rd birthday because she is obsessed with fire trucks and we are obsessed with keeping harmful chemicals out of our home.
We searched for a fire truck that was lacking the lights and noise makers that are so typical of every single toy these days. We were ecstatic when we found one that is also a green product and made in the USA!
We are very impressed by how simple and durable this toy is. The plastic is of excellent quality; it is thick/heavy gauge and has a nice feel to it. The truck rolls great - speedy and straight.
As a side note, our daughter also received a much larger, very fancy fire truck with many moving parts, flashing lights, sounds, etc. and she actually plays with this little fire truck more! She’s really into using her imagination right now, so I think that’s why she’s favoring the simpler truck. The fancy truck is so realistic that it’s limiting. The Green Toys fire truck allows her the flexibility to play however she wants.
We are so impressed with this toy and this company that we’ve already bought the pink dump truck for our daughter’s 1yr old cousin so we could spread the word to new parents that safe, high quality, durable, well made, non toxic toys are available at a very reasonable price and made in the USA. At under $20 for many of the toys, they are perfect for gifts, toy drives, grab bags or rewards.
We wish we knew about Green Toys sooner. We are actively spreading the word and have already filled the shopping cart with future purchases!
Great durable firetruck made from recycled materials. Birthday present for a two year old. We originally purchased a firetruck elsewhere, but it made noises. Not just when you pressed a button, but anytime you rolled it. I don't know why toy makers feel that everything has to make noises all the time. This firetruck makes no noise, requires no batteries. Your child can provide all the noises necessary.

This fire truck is like all other Green Toys toys indestructible! It’s large and has ladders that come off from the sides to play with. This is the perfect fire truck for toddlers because they are indestructible, my son has thrown his and done so much too it and nothing has happened or broken on this truck and it’s been through a lot! My toddler son loves playing with it for hours and I love that it’s made of recycled material and safe for children. I highly recommend this fire truck because it won’t break no matter what is done to it and it’s safe!
(Jan 2016 edit: We have now had this truck for one year and it has proven to be just as tough as Green Toys promises. My son has played rough with this truck inside and outside. It has amazed me at how tough it truly is. Nothing has broken and it still provides so much fun for him. ) This truck rocks! It is such great quality! We got it for our 3yr old boy for Christmas. He loves fire trucks but we did not want to get one with batteries. He loves his new fire truck from green toys. I would buy toys from them again. It is sturdy too. He plays so rough with it. The ladders on the side come off but have not broken even when he is rough with them. The top ladder swivels and moves and is super fun as well. Also has not broken. I am amazed at how sturdy and fun this little truck is after a few months of rough playing with it. Totally reccomend it!
Doesn’t roll as well as other plastic toys on the hardwood flooring. The wheels are flat where contact the ground. However I read the reviews before buying. And other plastic fire trucks wherent as toddler friendly design. The attached ladder was ok and little hard to move around. The side ladders for decor I tried to removed them it is not happening. Plus it’s nice to have them not be lost. Wished they changed the wheel design on this product so it has more traction.
Purchased for a boy's 1st birthday and this perfectly fit the bill: large and tactile for a mobile infant, bright and stands out amongst other toys, moving (safe) parts, and his 4 year-old sister loves so much that we plan to expand the line of these toys into both of their future birthday and holiday presents. We haven't experienced any issues with hardwood floors as other users reported- it rolls just fine, and the birthday boy even raises the ladder to push it around like a walking toy. Well done!
We have several Green Toys Vehicles we've accumulated over the past five years. This is one of the kids' favorites because of the action ladder and removable side ladders. This Fire truck does not have "free wheeling" so it won't roll on smooth surfaces. It does roll on carpet to the delight of the kids. They really don't have any issue with it not rolling on the floor otherwise, since they usually are using it for other purposes of role play. It has been used as a step stool (which I do not encourage!), but I am pleased at how sturdy it is especially when being stepped on or tossed around by toddlers. We usually keep this vehicle indoors, but it has been brought into the sandbox and still came out looking brand new. If you are okay with the wheels not turning on smooth surfaces, the kids will get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Plus, it is made of recycled materials and who doesn't appreciate that?
