I've got no incentive to buy the run of the mill Tonka toys anymore...they're made of plastic for the most part now so why not buy one that's made in America, like this one? At two, it's just a toy dumptruck to put the stuffies or trinkets in but as the kids get older, we can tell them how they're made of milk cartons that people recycled. Wheels roll nicely on carpet but aren't at all sticky so not as well on hard surfaces, but with a kid crawling behind them it's just fine. Nice details on the cab and wheels, sturdy construction...the plastic is VERY thick and the colors are really nice. So, if you recycle at home, put a little of your money on the other end and buy Green Toys' high-quality fruits of that effort! We have the recycling truck, the kitchen set, and the beach toy set also and like them all, too.
