The product found here on Amazon can be found for $104.99 at Toys 'R Us and the shipping is free on that website too. The bicycle itself is great, I love the color and its not heavy so its perfect for light riding or commuting. I just recommend buying it for cheaper at Toys 'R Us.

There must be two Schwinns. One that makes great bikes and another that doesn't. My wife fell in love with the looks of this one at Sport's Authority and it was "on-sale" so we took the plunge. Initially it seems like a sturdy, uncomplicated bike. Everyone thought it looked neat and my wife enjoyed using it to ride the kids to school.
Living with it brought to light some flaws. The parts seemed cheap and the fit and finish was not what I would expect from Schwinn. The chain guard was warped slightly and the rear carry rack did not seem sturdy enough to carry even a small bag of groceries. After only a few days of use a squeak started in the rear brakes. And it is a heavy bike.
My wife uses to the bike to accompany our children to and from school. Today her front tire suddenly went flat on the way home. There was no puncture or other visible cause, and after inspecting it I determined that the seal where the valve stem met the tube was leaking. After three weeks the front tire could not hold air for more than a few seconds and I suspect there may have been a rough edge within the rim that cause the rupture. We returned the bike immediately and instead bought a more expensive Trek cruiser from a reputable bike shop. It is lighter, has quality components and feels much more solid. I feel more confident that this bike won't let her down on her jaunts to and from the school.
I have a vintage style men's cruiser from around 1995 that is still in terrific shape with all the original parts, even the tires and tubes. It was built to last and I really like it. The Windwood 26" Women's comfort bicycle is not a Schwinn of that caliber and I can not recommend it.
 PERFECT IN PINK!!! August 9, 2010

I have been wanting a beach cruiser so my husband thought this would be the perfect bike for me and he was right!!! I love everything about this bike! The color is not nauseating but a nice pretty pink. Shipping was super fast & was easy to put together (even though it says free assembly...not sure from who, the FedEx guy???). It provides a smooth ride and is very comfortable. Everything I could have asked for in a beach cruiser and more! Just gotta find a nice white wire basket for the front and I'll be ready for the beach or local farmer's market!
Comfy bike, perfect for a cruise.. July 19, 2010

Bought this bike for my girlfriend. She loves it. Majority of bike was assembled, took about an additional 45 minutes for me to complete the entire assembly. (I have never assembled a bike before) Its a very good bike with a smooth ride for those just planning on flat road riding or thru a park of sorts. Might not be ideal if you plan on riding where there are alot of hills as this is a single speed bike. But all in all, a perfect gift and had enough pink on the bike for her to love it.
Little bit bummed but still an ok value July 19, 2010

We ordered this bike so I could cruise around w/ my huband and kids. It's a great bike for occasinal use. Read the reviews paint was chipped/ peeling in a couple spots it IS very cheaply made, you are getting what you pay for! Only reason I am upset is it arrived with a flat tube so we had to buy one b4 I could ride it, only a few bucks but kinda sucky. Overall ok value and shipped super fast!
