6 reasons not to buy

Owners complain about wobbly wheels and cheap plastic spokes that break.
Many buyers report that the bike arrives scratched, damaged, with parts missing, or in the wrong color.
Owners are disappointed with the cheap, hard foam tires, which offer poor traction, wear quickly, and are uncomfortable.
Multiple buyers have difficulty with assembly because of crooked frame welding. Weld splatter in the seat tube prevents seatpost insertion for others.
Parents say the bike is too small for 4-year-olds or children over 38”.
Owners complain of loosening handlebars and seatposts and grips that wear quickly.

Bottom line

The Joystar Marcher is a budget balance bike with 12" wheels. Kids from 1.5 to 3 fit well, but a parent says children over 38" tall are unlikely to fit. The simple, lightweight design is easy for young children to manage, and parents are excited when their children learn to balance quickly. However, the Marcher suffers from poor quality control on Joystar's part. Many bikes arrive used, damaged, poorly welded, or with parts that won't stay tightened. This leaves some buyers regretting their purchase, though ultimately, many feel the cheap Marcher is good enough as a short-term balance trainer.
