The only drawback is the handle of the garbage cans, the breaks really fast. Therefore I would not recommend the garbage truck for younger children whose fine motor skills is not as good. From my perspective, I would say that our son's age is just old enough to exercise sufficient care when hanging up the garbage cans. But if need be, the garbage cans for about 9 - great for 3 small and 1 also bought later quickly ...
A clear buy recommendation for children from 2.5 years who are interested in Müllafuhren !!
