Nika Twiny2 Snow Sled

My kid's a total sledding fanatic, and the Nika Twiny2 Snow Sled is their absolute favorite. It's ridiculously easy to use, even for little ones just starting out. Plus, it's built to last and won't break the bank. I'm talking solid build quality and a price that's super reasonable. The ease of use makes it perfect for families with kids of all ages. It's great for kids who are just learning to sled, and it's also a blast for older kids who want to show off their skills. My kid's been using it for weeks now, and I'm impressed with how well it holds up. The build quality is top-notch, and it's still going strong.

Hello there!

I spent ages agonizing over whether to get a sled with a handle or a snow sled with a handle. This year, I decided to take the plunge and buy one for our daily winter strolls with my daughter.

Just as I was about to make the purchase, it snowed, and our friend came out on her snow sled. After they played and had a few tussles - they still don't know what's going on - I sent my husband to pick up a new ride. We bought it at Kari, and it had their brand's logo on it, but the entire hardware had Nika's emblem - no surprise, given that it was made to order for the store.

Right after assembly, I realized the sled was flimsy, and the parent handle kept coming loose. It happened a few times when we were crossing the road, thank goodness no one was around. After that, we drilled some holes and secured it with bolts.

The color is bright and beautiful, and I love how the tow line is automatic. The parent handle has foam, which means it won't be cold if you don't wear gloves or mittens. It also has a backrest and a safety harness.

The steering wheel doesn't lock in place and spins around all the time.

It weighs 4 kg, making it the lightest ride we have. My daughter can pull it herself when no one is sitting on it, and even when someone is, she can still manage.

But here's the thing - the original plastic is thin and wears off quickly. In our case, a piece even broke off where the handle is attached. We decided to replace the sled, and the new one is way better. It's sturdier, has thicker plastic, and is larger. After the replacement, it was clear how much better the snow sled rides with the new sled. Even the steering wheel became more stable, and it rarely spins around.

If I had to choose again, I'd still pick the snow sled. It's definitely more convenient than the sled with a handle.

I wouldn't give it a high rating, though. I'd like to see better-quality plastic so the handle stays securely in place. I bought a pre-assembled product that didn't need any modifications, but in reality, I had to drill some holes.
