Boot Scoot Balance Bikes

Anyone have one?

How does it compare to Strider?

There is a Gilt deal for them today.

We had the strider and I found the Zoomer at Goodwill for $7 so I grabbed it. My daughter chooses the Zoomer a lot more, but I think it is because it is pink while the strider is orange. The advantage of the boot scoot is that it has a quick release which is nice for adjusting the seats without having to get tools out. The strider has a spot for your feet that the zoomer doesn't have. I think the seat to handlebars is a bit farther on the zoomer. Tires seem pretty similar. If they were both the same price, I'd choose the Strider.

We have a boot scoot (the smallest model) and it's very cute and sturdy. I can't compare it to any other bikes, but I like ours well enough. DS uses it, but reluctantly -- he'd far rather try to ride his 4yo sister's "real" bike.
