Totally fun for 5 year olds boys!5
I have twin 5-year olds boys and they LOVE this toy! They run around the house for 20-30 minutes chasing imaginary bad guys. It is great excercise! And they come back to it frequently - it doesn't stay on the shelf long!

LOTS OF FUN4
IF YOU HAVE READ THAT PEOPLE COULDN'T GET THE HANDLE BAR TO WORK ITS BECAUSE IT HAS A SENSOR AND IT HAS TO BE IN FRONT OF THE HELMET...I HESITATED BUYING IT BECAUSE OF REVIEWS AND REALIZED THAT PEOPLE WERE NOT READING INSTRUCTIONS. WORKS GREAT AND MY 4 YEAR OLD LOVES IT!

great concept, hard to use3
I bought this for my 2 year old son who loves helmets and police motorcycles. He loved it instantly. The problem? The helmet did not fit his head no matter how we tightened it. We ended up using the inside padding of a bike helmet so that it might fit him. But it still needs the chin strap done or it falls off, and it is not a comfortable strap. Also, the microphone side is so much heavier than the other side that the helmet is usually at a tilt on his head, even with the chin strap done. The handlebars work very infrequently. At first I thought it was the batteries, and replacing them helped the first time, but now even that does not work. I am very disappointed with this product.
