Adventure Starts with Hoveroo
Safe, stylish, and super fun rides for kids of all ages!













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 – Reliable stopping power indoors and outdoors
Forward-Only Wheel Design – Eliminates dangerous backward movement even on inclined surfaces
Perfect For Tiny Hands – 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 play—it's as close to riding a real pony as possible without leaving your living room!
Forward Moving Adventure – Not just rocking in place but actually traveling across rooms and patios
Sneaky Fitness Fun – Develops balance, coordination and core strength while kids just enjoy the ride
Authentic Gallop Feel – 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 – Converts vertical bouncing to forward propulsion at 90% efficiency
Ready in 5 Minutes – From box to riding in under 5 minutes with no charging required
Maintenance-Free Design – 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. Unlike harder plastic wheels found on cheaper alternatives, our soft PU material provides ideal traction without leaving marks on hardwood, tile, or laminate. Parents can relax knowing their floors remain pristine even after hours of enthusiastic riding.
70A Durometer Rating – Optimal softness for floor protection without sacrificing durability
Sealed Precision Bearings – Smooth rolling action with no floor drag or resistance
Non-Porous Surface – Prevents dirt absorption that could transfer to clean floors

Grows With Your Child From Ages 4 to 10
Our mechanical pony's engineered frame and adjustable design accommodates children from ages 4 to 10, with a remarkable weight capacity of up to 45kg. The intentional sizing ensures perfect fit as your child grows, eliminating the need for replacements.
45kg Weight Capacity – Supports growing children with a 3x safety factor built in
Adjustable Riding Position – Ergonomic design adapts as your child grows taller

Honestly didn’t know what to expect. Thought it might be a bit of a gimmick, but my daughter’s obsessed. She named it 'Sparkle' and rides it all over the house like she’s in a movie. It’s actually pretty solid too – I thought she’d wreck it within a week!

It’s really well made. We’ve had other ride-ons before and they fall apart after a few months, but this one feels like it’ll last. The only thing is it’s a bit big to store, but we just park it in the hallway. My kids ride it constantly, so I’m not complaining.

We bought the unicorn one for our daughter and to be honest, I didn’t expect it to get this much use. She literally eats breakfast on it. It doesn’t even stay parked anymore—it lives in our kitchen. The turning circle could be better, but she doesn’t care at all.

Didn’t take long to put together at all – maybe five minutes. My 4-year-old got the hang of it straight away. He calls it his ‘magic pony’ and even brushes its mane in the mornings. I wish it turned a bit tighter, but otherwise it’s been awesome.

First impression: expensive. Second impression: totally worth it. My kid hasn’t touched the iPad in three days which feels like a miracle. It’s not loud, doesn’t need charging, and somehow tires him out before bedtime. Big win in my books.

asked questions
Still have questions? Reach out to us at support@hoveroo.com.au we’re here to help!
Is this mechanical pony safe for my 4-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 24-month Australian warranty—12 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.
