Advantages: child can sit on top and be pulled along
Disadvantages: front wheels dont turn left or right so sharp turns are difficult
If you have a 3 to 5 year old child and you plan to travel then buy this - you won't regret it.
Our 3 year old chose the ladybird version and has been pleased as punch with it ever since. The case is sturdy - made from the same material as adult suitcases and is big enough to fit enough clothing for your child for a week or sos holiday. As such it easily fits in the overhead racks on planes. The clasps have a combination lock on them
The strap can be adjusted so that in its shorter version the child can pull the case behind them or when longer you can pull them along while they sit on it (if you saw the trunkie on Dragon's den then I assure you they have sorted the problem of the straps breaking). The child just holds onto the ears while they go along with the lip at the bottom of each side ensuring that it doesn't easily tip forward - it's a lot easier to pull her along than carrying her and only takes one hand leaving your other hand free to carry your own bag.
The wheels are quite small so they do tend to struggle going over bumpy paving slabs and will sometimes get stuck. Also the front wheels do not turn left or right so making sharp changes of direction is not possible without the child getting off. That said we pulled her for 1 hr through the streets of Barcelona without too many problems. The locals loved it and our child loved the attention she was getting...40 quid well spent :~)
Summary: Super suitcase for children...and you will wish you had one when you were small as well
