The Only Ride-On Pony With Real Built-In Braking
Unlike competitor ponies that can't stop on demand, our exclusive hand brake system puts control directly in your child's hands. This critical safety feature allows immediate stopping power on any surface, preventing runaway rides and giving parents complete peace of mind. It's the safety innovation that transforms "be careful" into "go have fun!"
Works On All Surfaces β Reliable stopping power indoors and outdoors
Forward-Only Wheel Design β Eliminates dangerous backward movement even on inclined surfaces
Perfect For Tiny Hands β The ergonomic brake lever responds to the gentlest touch for instant stopping power
Moves like a real pony
Unlike ordinary rocking horses that just rock back and forth, our mechanical pony delivers authentic forward movement with every bounce. The patented pedal-powered mechanism creates a realistic galloping sensation that thrills children and develops their balance and coordination. This isn't just pretend playβit's as close to riding a real pony as possible without leaving your living room!
Forward Moving Adventure β Not just rocking in place but actually traveling across rooms and patios
Sneaky Fitness Fun β Develops balance, coordination and core strength while kids just enjoy the ride
Authentic Gallop Feel β Replicates the genuine sensation of riding a real pony with every bounce
100% Battery-Free Design
Our mechanical pony operates on a precision-engineered motion transfer system that converts bouncing into forward movement with remarkable efficiency. The fully mechanical design eliminates all electronic components, creating a ride-on toy that's always ready for adventure without ever needing batteries, charging cords, or power outlets.
Engineered Motion-Transfer System β Converts vertical bouncing to forward propulsion at 90% efficiency
Ready in 5 Minutes β From box to riding in under 5 minutes with no charging required
Maintenance-Free Design β Never needs charging, battery replacement, or electronic repairs
Bring the Beats On Every Ride
Our mechanical pony features premium 70A durometer polyurethane wheels specifically engineered to protect all floor surfaces.

Parents can relax knowing their floors remain pristine even after hours of enthusiastic riding.
70A Durometer Rating β Optimal softness for floor protection without sacrificing durability
Sealed Precision Bearings β Smooth rolling action with no floor drag or resistance
Non-Porous Surface β Prevents dirt absorption that could transfer to clean floors

asked questions
Still have questions? Reach out to us at support@hoveroo.com.au weβre here to help!
Is this mechanical pony safe for my 3-year-old?
Yes! Every model includes a child-friendly hand brake that requires minimal pressure to activate, giving even young riders complete stopping control. The one-way wheel technology prevents backward rolling on slopes, while the low center of gravity minimizes tipping risk. All components meet Australian safety standards ASTM F963 and European EN-71 for complete peace of mind.
Will it scratch my hardwood or tile floors?
Not at all. Our ponies feature premium 70A durometer polyurethane wheels specifically engineered to protect all floor surfaces. This specialized material is significantly softer than the hard plastic wheels found on generic ride-ons. Parents consistently report zero scratches on hardwood, tile, or laminate floors even after months of daily riding.
Do I need to buy batteries or charge it?
No batteries or charging ever! Our mechanical pony operates on a precision-engineered system that converts bouncing into forward movement with 90% energy efficiency. This fully mechanical design means it's always ready for adventure without downtime. No batteries to replace, no charging cords to find, and no disappointing moments when the power runs out.
How difficult is it to assemble?
Assembly takes just 5 minutes with our single-bolt connection system. Simply attach the head to the body using the provided Allen key, and your child can be riding within minutes. In our customer satisfaction surveys, 93% of parents rated assembly as "extremely easy" and completed it without any assistance.
What's the warranty and support like?
We provide a full 12-month Australian warrantyβ12 times longer than many competitors' standard 30-day coverage. Our Australia-based customer service team is available to assist with any questions, and replacement parts ship within 24 hours if needed. With local support, you'll never deal with overseas call centers or language barriers.
Can it be used outdoors?
Yes! Our mechanical ponies are designed for both indoor and outdoor use on flat, hard surfaces. The durable construction handles concrete, pavement, and deck surfaces with ease, while the sealed bearings stand up to Australian conditions. For optimal performance, we recommend smooth surfaces rather than grass or gravel.
Can my child control it easily?
Absolutely! Our user testing shows 85% of children aged 3-5 mastered riding independently within the first 5 minutes without any instruction. The responsive steering requires minimal force to turn, and the child-sized hand brake is positioned perfectly for small hands to reach, building confidence quickly with every ride.
What age/size is right for my child?
We offer two perfect sizes: Small (ages 3-5, under 110cm tall) and Medium (ages 4-8, between 100-135cm tall). The Medium size accommodates growth with its higher weight capacity (up to 80kg) and slightly larger dimensions. If your child is around age 4, consider their height and how long you want the pony to lastβmany parents size up for extended use.
Nice gift
They got the product to me earlier. Product is in good condition and my child loves it.
I purchased this little horse for my granddaughter for Christmas. She will turn 3 in a couple of months. I was impressed with the quality of the materials. It assembled easily with only a few steps needed to completion. Its weight was heavier than I expected, but I quickly learned the weight was balanced and served to provide stability as the child uses it. I placed my granddaughter on the horse and showed her once how to shift her weight from her legs on the peddles to sitting back on the saddle to make the horse move. She picked up on it immediately and was very quickly riding all over the house. It is short enough that she can climb on and off the horse without help and is large enough that her 6 year old brother could ride it, as well. I would highly recommend.
Nothing bad to say about this ride-on unicorn. It's sturdy, cute, easy to assemble. I appreciate that it came in a size that fit my tall 5 year old granddaughter. It's smooth to operate. Goes fast enough to be a little thrilling.
The grand daughter got the pony cycle for her 3rd birthday and loved it. Got right on and took off. Would definitely buy again and recommend it to anyone
