Fisher Price Smart Cycle - Not Very Smart
April 21st, 2008 by FuzzTagged as: Fisher Price, Smart Cycle, SmartCycle.
I love how Fisher Price called they’re exercise bike/video game machine the “Smart Cycle.” I just think the name is ironic considering the design is not very “smart” at all.
- The Smart Cycle has no internal memory, so no matter how well your child does at one of the games, she or he will always have to start over from the beginning.
- My biggest gripe - the thing only takes D-cell batteries. There is no place to plug in an AC adapter. You just have to keep feeding the hungry beast batteries. It’s obnoxious.
It’s a really cool concept - but it’s not as “smart” as they’d have you believe. It’s really time for a redesign.
