I bought this for my son's first B-Day and was rather upset with it. My son who is in the 75th percentile for his hieght couldn't even touch the ground once he was sitting on it. Not to mention it is in no way stable, it tips over almost as soon as you touch it. It's age rating is completely wrong it should be for a 2 to 3 year old. I don't recomend this for anyone wanting to buy it for a child that is under 35 inches tall.
