Geospace Original Walkaroo Durable Steel Stilts with Ergonomic Design for Easy Balance Walking & Active Play for Adults and Kids up to 220 lbs (Blue)

My 8 year old is loving the challenges of moving through the house as tall as his parents. My 5’11” husband even gave them a spin. Very sturdy and heavy duty without being heavy. Steel not aluminum! My friends had some that had extensions and that is what I thought I was purchasing. When I reached out to Geospace they were quick to upgrade my purchase to enhance the challenge for my son. The Original Stilts by Geospace are great if you rather not have extra pieces and content with the 9 or so inch lift from the ground. Overall these are functional, fun for kids and adults, and can enhance agility and balance.

My 4 year old wanted stilts, and so I could help her to learn how to use them, I bought a pair for myself. I am about 5'6", medium build, and these are more than sturdy enough for me. The weight limit indicated on the package is 210 lbs. They would be too long for my 4 year old, who is about 42" tall - they won't adjust down to that size at all, but I think they're not meant to. I bought her a smaller pair of a different brand. I had stilts as a kid, but that was 30 years ago. I found that it came back fairly quickly with these. If you're just starting out, you will need someone to steady you as get on these things (that seems to be the hardest part). They adjust at convenient increments, have a gripper bottom that so far hasn't left marks on my wood floor, and are very easy to put together. I really like them and have no complaints. Now mommy gets to have fun, too!

These are a lot of fun but my daughters (9 and 12) mastered them almost immediately and started complaining that they could not adjust them to be taller. The stilts themselves have adjustable handles to accomodate different heights of users, but the actual distance from the ground is not adjustable. Maybe that's a good thing --a fall from 11 inches is a lot better than a fall from 3 feet and we're not exactly trying out for the circus. Also, these are very sturdy--I comfortably walked around on them and I'm pretty much pushing their advertised weight capacity.

10 year old twin recipients loved them, as did brothers ages 12-16, and parents. Good for motor skills and balance, lots of fun and races. Sturdy build and will take kids from 4' up easily, secure pins allow height changes.

This was bought for a 12 year old girl. She was able to get the hang of walking on them within a few minutes. They are well made and easy to assemble and adjust. From the package insert in the box, it looks like you can also buy extensions to make the stilts taller. I am always looking for ways to get kids moving around (and out from behind a video screen), these do the job nicely and take up less room than a bike. These also adjust more than low enough for my 9 year old.

I couldn't be more happy with this purchase. I was scared the stilts would be fun for a day, then gather dust in the garage. This is not the case. I bought these for my 8 year old nephew who is always on the go. Now he is on the go, on stilts. The rest of the family, who are the video game type, are up and moving too! Everyone is having fun with these stilts. I will be buying a second pair for my older nephew. Luckily the stilts don't mark or scuff the floors. I also bought the extentions for the stilts. They were using them the first day. It always feels great to give a gift that everyone loves :)

I gave my oldest daughter’s twins stilts for Christmas. They love walking on them. The next time the twins visited their cousins the stilts went with them. She enjoyed the stilts so much she asked for a set for her birthday. The stilts require no assembly and are easily adjusted to fit different heights. They are sturdy and so easy to use the kids picked up the skill in just a few days.

Our daughter really wanted stilts for her 5th birthday, we got these ones and have not been disappointed. They are actually quite a bit too long so that her arm pits do not sit over the right spot. That however, has worked out great! She just holds on to the handles and the arm rests that bend back make an place awesome for adults to hold onto. We do need to help her balance and the design makes it easy and comfortable. Our 3 and 2 year old were also able to use them with guidance. The metal is very sturdy and the feet have good traction grippers. We have gotten a lot of use out of them already! All three kids have fun with the stilts plus my husband and I sneek in turns and have fun as well!
