I bought these skates for my daycare. These kids needed some active indoor toys for the winter. I gave them a 4 star because of the price, and I don't like the brakes they put on them. I was actually able to make several sets for my daycare using a plastic roll up sled. I cut it into strips and attached a pair of sandalls using double backed carpet tape. I don't regret buying the pair. Just think the price is too high for what it is.
Better than expected

I got these for my daughter as a last minute birthday gift. Boy has she had fun. I was skeptical that they would actually glide across carpet...especially my dirty carpet but, they did. And they did some more! She didn't take them off for days. I strapped these babies on one day while she was gone and nearly fell on my rear as they "slid" far better than I imagined. So, after a couple of months, their novelty has waned but, they were fun for a while. I would purchase them again.

Well, everything I read about these slides was true. The kids opened them and skated around (loudly and recklessly, I might add. And if you are faint of heart at seeing your kid do physical comedy, you may want prepare the area carefully or just not watch). Once they were pooped out, my sister and I (in our 40's) soon grabbed the chance to skate ourselves. We definitely felt like silly kids again. The little ones especially liked sliding and then landing on their backsides (something we adults with back problems may decline). Amazon stated these would get to me after Christmas but the reviews said they shipped very quickly, so I ordered and crossed my fingers. True enough, these guys are fast and they made it before Christmas. I'm very grateful for that. Good job!!!!
