Poor workmanship or wrong parts
"Kidalert Filled the base with sand and tried to put the plug in the hold but it fell right out. I measured the hole and its 7/8 the plug is 13/16 absolutely no interference fit. So now the sand runs out."

My Guy
"My wife and I were visiting our son, daughter-in-law and our granddaughters out of state. One of their neighbors put out their Kid Alert on our son's side of the street and our two-year-old granddaughter saw this and said My Guy! That's My Guy! So, me being the sucker I am for my grandchildren went online your website and bought my granddaughter her own My Guy."

"Love this stand. It’s helped somewhat to slow some drivers down."
Gets Drivers Attention
"It works well at getting drivers' attention. I had mine for about 3 weeks until an angry driver decided to run it over in front of my children and me. I will be buying a new one to replace it since it got damaged. But this will not stop me from putting up a new one. I highly recommend it for anyone with children who enjoy playing outside."

Q&A
- Why are there nubs on the back leg? It looks like they are there for a purpose but they aren’t mentioned in the directions at all. It seems like they should be there to help stabilize it from the back?
- Thank you, Kate, for reaching out with your question about the KidAlert! V.W.S.™. We really appreciate your attention to the details of our products! You're right to notice the nubs on the back leg — they can look like they serve a functional purpose. While the instruction manual for SKU 8648CP doesn't specifically reference these nubs, they are part of the manufacturing design and help maintain structural integrity during molding. They are not intended for stabilization, but they do not affect the performance or safety of the product when assembled according to the directions. If you’d like, a customer service agent would be happy to walk through your assembly or concerns step by step to ensure everything is set up correctly. Please feel free to reach out to us at 1-800-347-8372 or by email at step2-company@step2.net for assistance.
