Forklift 9000

We are an American company through and through. We strive to provide an exceptional experience from start to finish — that is why our entire support team resides in the US. No matter what the issue, we will resolve it or refund your purchase within warranty period. To assist with this, we have humans behind our phone lines during business hours and an email that is monitored closely.

Absolutely! Think about it: an iPad runs $399 and only adds screen time. A gaming console is $499 and keeps kids indoors. A backyard playset can be $500+ and they outgrow it fast.

The Tough Trucks Forklift 9000 gives your kid years of outdoor play, physical activity, and confidence-building for less than all of those combined — and it even holds great resale value.

Not at all. It comes 80% assembled, and the rest is simple. Most parents get it done in 30–45 minutes with the help of our step-by-step Forklift assembly instructions video. Pro tip: a power screwdriver makes it even faster.

It absolutely lifts. The Forklift 9000 is engineered to lift up to 22 lbs — boxes, toys, even Yeti coolers. This is real working action, not make-believe.

We’ve got you covered. We stock parts in our LA warehouse and include a 90-day bumper-to-bumper warranty. If something breaks, we’ll fix it — fast.

Not even close, if you compare our trucks side by side against walmart you will notice several key differences. 

1. The plastic is made from safer materials and is built stronger and thicker. 

2. Our wheels are made of a high quality EVA, for you that means zero chance of punctures or breakage.

3. We put only the highest quality batteries in our trucks, that means faster charging and longer play time.

4. Our motors are the highest quality available, walmart goes with the cheapest.

The Forklift 9000 uses a 24V5Ah battery which on a full charger can give 1-2h of playtime. We recommend a regular charge-discharge cycle to extend the life of the battery.

Yes! The EVA tires are heavy-duty and grip like champs. Whether it’s gravel, grass, or dirt, this thing handles terrain way better than the cheap ride-ons at big box stores.

All signs point to yes. Kids build pretend warehouses, lift things from the driveway, move packages — you name it. Parents tell us it’s one of the few toys that doesn’t end up forgotten in the garage.

Not at all. Our trucks have two speed settings, and you can start on the slow mode. Plus, with the parent remote, you’re always in the driver’s seat. Kids build confidence safely, step by step.

Orders ship next business day from our LA warehouse. You’ll get tracking details, and you can upgrade to express shipping by emailing support@toughtrucksforkids.com for birthdays or last-minute surprises.
