Can a child's fingers get pinched in the aligators' jaws?

Our grandson is a year old and we thought this would be a good toy for him. He likes to twirl the wooden beads but there is a danger with the alligators. He has figured out how to put his fingers in the mouths and then lean on them. As expected, his weight closes the mouths on little fingers and it hurts! Also, he has fallen on the edge of the handle and got a nasty bump on his head. Maybe he is still too young for this kind of toy. An older child would probably be too tall to have fun pushing it though. It's a cute idea but not a very practical toy..

is it a decent weight? meaning if my baby wobbles and loses his balance he can use it to regain it?

I bought it for a friend of mine. Her son's 1st birthday. She said it's his favorite and sturdy. He started to walk at 13m old. With that said, I've seen a multitude of parents blaming a toy for being inept, when in fact their child just couldn't walk well, which wobbly walking is normal. My son used something similar, but started walking about 9 months old. Long story short....depends on the child and how willing the parents are to not place blame.

Will this work well on wood floors? Will it damage wood floors?

We have wood floors also. Works great. Wheels have a rubber strip around them to prevent scratching the floor.

What are the dimensions of the box?

The toy is 15 inches high, 15 inches long, and 12 inches wide. Perfect size for a toddler. Hope this helps.
