The elegantly-crafted Bambino pull sled is a child's perfect introduction to winter. This cozy sled, designed by a Colorado sled maker and crafted entirely by hand, is designed to excel in powder and on bumpy snow due to its unique design. With a custom-molded bottom of high-quality slippery plastic, the Bambino glides along with ease while its wide stance keeps it stable. Built from kiln-dried birch and hand-carved willow, screwed together for durability with stainless steel hardware. Meets all USC and ASTM child safety requirements; marine-grade finish. The Bambino measures 33"L x 12"W x 11"H, 8 lbs. Holds up to 100 pounds.

Summary: This is such a wonderful sled!!!!
Comment: Looking for some good exercise with a toddler, I decided that a walk, snowshoe, or cross-country ski would be great with a sled like this!
Boy was I right! This sled is so smooth over the snow, both packed and powder. Getting back from our 1 mile journey, my 20 month old said, "again!".
I really can't believe what a great sled this is. We are definately going to buy more Mountain Boy sleds in the future!

Summary: Beautiful, Functional and Happy-Making
Comment: I purchased this for my infant son to "give" to his father for Christmas, and it was a big hit (for both.) Our baby loved being pulled about the yard in it, and the sled was remarkably steady even in about a foot of snow. We used the JJ Cole Bundle-Me (see "customer images") to help keep our son warm as well as more securely affixed to the sled. (Whereas the sled does advertise itself as being safe for babies six months and older, there is no harness to keep the child on the pull sled. We discovered that we really did not need a harness, but that on occasion when the sled was pulled around corners it would tip slightly in the deep snow, and the Bundle Me kept our baby safely on the sled.)
I found the sled to be a quality product, and likely to be a favorite for years (it seats kids up to the age of four) and then a wonderful heirloom or hand-me-down. In an age where Americans are often afraid of purchasing Chinese-made products, I have to say I was very impressed by the craftsmanship. The wood is gorgeously finished, the rope soft and sturdy and the various parts sturdy and well-made.
I was also very excited to find a surprise Christmas tree ornament in the box: a tiny sled of excellent craftsmanship which is now a wonderful reminder of our son's first sled and his first Christmas. I'm not sure if the ornament is only in the package seasonally, but it was a happy and welcome discovery.
Given our first experience with Mountain Boy sleds, we definitely plan to purchase other sleds from the company as our son gets bigger and moves to sliding down hills. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Summary: Perfect sled to get little kids out in the snow
Comment: My husband and I rented one of these for a trip last year to Sun Valley, Idaho. We took our niece and nephew, ages 2 and 3, and they loved it! One day we used it to get them back up the sled hill, two days we used it to explore the area. It's easy to pull so the grown-ups don't get too tired. We used it on both fresh powder and somewhat icy granular snow, and it was fine on both. Well made, very sturdy, and beautiful to look at when it's not in use.
