 NOT impressed with this Laugh and Learn productMar 27, 2007
By G. Chen
"milkteamom"
I like most of Fisher Price's Laugh and Learn products so I was very disappointed with this vacuum. I have similar complaints as the previous review:
1) The height of the vacuum is VERY short. My daughter is 20 months and on the short side. She almost has to bend over to use it already. I don't know how they market this for up to 3 years of age. It would definitely be too small for a 3 year old.
2) The big purple wheels in the back turn but there is this plastic molding that is in the shape of a wheel underneath the vacuum cleaner that doesn't turn at all. It just drags on the ground. So this would be ok if you use it on carpeting but on hardwood floor, it almost scrapes up the ground. I don't understand by they didn't make this front "wheel" actually spin too.
3) The vacuum doesn't stay upright! It's a pain to store because I have to prop it up with something. If i don't, it just lays on the ground and takes up a lot of space. Everytime my daughter is playing with it, she has to bend all the way to the floor to get to the handle.
4) There aren't many features to this at all. The only features are the on/off switch and the wheels/front part that spin and make music. There is this red knob and green spinning ball that do nothing at all.
5) I don't know why this is called "Laugh and LEARN". There is really no learning. They sing the alphabet so fast that I can barely keep up, let alone a 2 year old.
I haven't looked into any other toy vacuum cleaners but for the price of this, I would have expected it to do a lot more and have better features.

 Cute, but smallMar 20, 2007
By egghead23
This vacuum is very cute and has realistic sounds along with its musical and learning modes. Two problems I have with it are:
1) It's REALLY SMALL. My daughter is 18-months-old, of average height, and the handle is a little higher than her waist. I couldn't tell this before I bought it because of the way the thing is packaged. Had I known, I might have opted for a different vacuum.
2) The handle doesn't stand up like a real vacuum, so the wheels always roll out to make it lay flat. Kind of a bummer, but I wish I could just store it in a corner like I do a real vacuum.
One good thing is that it has a volume control, so it's not that loud.

 Great vacuum for the little ones.Dec 05, 2007
By Asya O.
"twinz97"
My husband and I, bought this vacuum cleaner for my nephew for his 1st birthday. He loved it and still loves it at 2 years of age. Whenever, I bring my son over who is the same age, the two of them always fight for this vacuum.
Others mentioned that the vacuum is too short for the their toddlers but not for our toddlers. Perfect size. It makes sounds and it sings. My nephew already knows the melodies. After one year of usage, none of the parts have broken.

Helped OVERCOME fear for autistic sonFeb 18, 2008
By A. Richards
Hi - well, we love this product. who cares if it stands up? it actually never occurred to me to be a problem, but it seems important to others. The only reason I bought a vacuum is because my autistic then 3 year old (now 3 1/2)son and my then infant - now 14 months were so afraid of the vacuum that I could not use it unless I hired someone to take them out of the house, or Daddy immediately took them out of the house as soon as he got home from work. The vacuum comes out ONLY when Mommy vacuums, and now after having this product since Christmas, my autistic son was vacuuming WITH ME - and even banging up against my machine, he was that close. That is so so so cool I had tears in my eyes. They have learned - how to help, how to value cleanliness, and how to conquer fear.
If your children are afraid of the vacuum, I highly recommend this product. The small size was PERFECT because my 3 year old was so much bigger than the product--this son is 20% over the 100th percentile mark for his height, and it was proportioned to his body the same as my big Dyson is to me, and I'm 5'4".
when Mommy's vacuum gets put in the closet, so does their vacuum. hooray for my brave boys! :)

Fixing the handle problemMay 29, 2009
By H. Geiser
Many reviews have mentioned the handle not locking into an upright position. I noticed this as well when my 1-year-old got it for her birthday, and I thought it was broken or defective.
So, being the fix-it person that I am, I took it all apart and discovered that the little molded plastic bits on the inside of the wheel openings are too big. It appears that it was designed to lock into a stand, but they didn't measure it quite right. So if you're adventurous, find a way to shave off about 1/8" of plastic from the rounded edge to make it flat and voila, it stands up!
My daughter has been enjoying this toy so far, she especially likes the spinning part in the middle but since she's still a bit wobbly with the walking she's not quite ready to go across the floor with it.
