bethanymaxwell85 says "Great stroller - but big!" about Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem Stroller

bethanymaxwell85 — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 17:49:37 GMT

We picked out the Kolcraft tandem stroller when I was pregnant with our second child. Our 2 youngest children are 16 months apart, so we needed something for both of them! I'm not sure what we were thinking, as far as size goes, but when we got it out of the box our first thought was, "This thing is huge!" It barely fits into the trunk of our Buick Century. Good thing it fits or we would've been in trouble! (Hey, wanna strap it to the top of the car?) It's great for outdoors, but not so great for shopping in the mall. I am constantly running into racks of clothes or getting stuck in narrow walkways. It goes without too much pushing effort and I love the fact that you can switch the seats around to face either way. I never used the infant car seat attachment as the seats also recline, so my little baby was fine strapped in with some blankets tucked around her, in the reclining position. It is quite heavy, so be prepared when trying to hoist it into your trunk. It hasn't been as durable as...

kcdowdy52 says "Stylish, Easy to Steer, Highly Functional Stroller" about Baby Planet Endangered Species Standard Stroller

kcdowdy52 — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 14:00:37 GMT

The Baby Planet Solo Sport stroller has by far exceeded my expectations. We purchased the Lemur Leaf Frog version from the Endangered Species Line for our 2 year old son. We have a larger travel system stroller and wanted a smaller, lighter, easy to pack stroller to take with us on vacations and day trips. I did not want to go with a cheaper umbrella stroller version. After much much research and watching the price on this stroler for about 6 months, we finally decided to purchase it. It is a purchase I do not regret.

The stroller is beautifully built and has held up well on several trips. I love that the seat does recline to allow easy napping, this is a feature that is hard to find in light weight strollers. It also has a cup holder and a storage basket below. It has modern styling which I love and folds quite compact for easy transport and storage. The only thing I wish I could change would be to add another parent cup holder and a child cup holder.

suvanova says "Best stroller in town" about Maclaren Quest Stroller

suvanova — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 03:48:05 GMT

The Maclaren Quest Stroller is a wonderful addition to families with a young child. The Maclaren Quest is a five point harness stroller for added safety. It is quick and easy setting this stroller up. Folding the stroller and putting it back up is a little harder than other single strollers I have used. The Maclaren has a wonderful warranty, you can also purchase spare parts on the website. This will help your stroller last for years.

As a parent of a special needs child who uses this product almost daily, I would recommend this to any parent looking for a lasting stroller.

mmkmama says "Best travel gear yet!" about Phil and Ted's me too

mmkmama — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 02:18:47 GMT

A friend told us about the me too before we headed on a trip to the East Coast. Wow do I wish I had known about it before! It's a travel high chair-- it weighs 2.2 lbs and folds completely flat. We took it everywhere we went on our trip. And it will hold your child until they weigh 40 lbs. It was perfect for dinner at a friend's house, restaurants without highchairs, random airport time... It clips on to almost any table quickly and easily. My daughter loved it too-- I think she particularly liked feeling like she was at the same level as everyone else at the table no matter where we were. I couldn't believe how secure it is given how small.

The only drawback I can think of is that each time we went through security they had to stop and re-scan it. We never got stopped, I guess they just don't get a lot of things that look like that in the x-ray machine at the airport.

If you plan to travel even just a little with your baby, the me too will make your life easier!

MommyLala says "Evenflo is not great at all!!! Real pain in the.. as I was sayin" about Evenflo Journey Elite Stroller

MommyLala — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 02:50:09 GMT

The evenflo Journey elite travel system seemed like the perfect stroller for me and my baby. At first it was all great NOW Im looking for a new stroller. Sometimes it gets stocked to open and close its heavy I've only used it for 3 months and its wheels wobble a lot. The handle bar broke. I only used it on stores. Could imagine if I were to use it on the street???? Thank God I didn't. Plusit takes a lot of space on mu trunk. But I have no problems with the carseat that came with it. The car-seat is great and comfortable

Lnychick83 says "A great stroller for two" about Baby Trend Silverado Deluxe Sit N Stand Stroller

Lnychick83 — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 19:29:47 GMT

I love this stroller. I am a stay at home mother of three my two youngest are 15 months apart so we needed to get them a nice double stroller. We looked at alot of strollers online and in stores and finally found the baby trend Sit N Stand Plus Double Stroller Silverado. I thought it would be the perfect stroller for our needs so we picked it up. One thing that are great about the baby trend Sit N Stand Plus Double Stroller Silverado is that it can either be used ad a regular tandem double stroller or you can remove the back seat and it is a sit and stand. It is perfect if you have two children close together in age because you can use it as either. Another thing that I like is the fact for being large it actually folds up to a pretty good size and also is very easy to steer. Both of my kids also love the baby trend Sit N Stand Plus Double Stroller Silverado but the only thing I find wrong with the stroller would be sometimes if you have to lift the two fount wheels like to go over...

flowerchild123 says "Strong, sturdy, portable, high quality stroller" about Maclaren Quest Stroller

flowerchild123 — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 15:41:49 GMT

The Maclaren Quest Stroller is a great stroller! We did a lot of research before buying this stroller. We compared several of the other higher-end stroller brands (Peg Perego, Bumbleride, Bugaboo) and realized this would be the best value for us. The things we considered when making a decisions included: portability (I didn't want to struggle with a giant stroller that weighed almost as much as I do when loading/unloading it into the car); length of time our child could use it (I couldn't see spending a few hundred dollars on something that wouldn't last more than several months); safety (need I say more?); appearance (I don't like the look of some of the European strollers out there right now; they look like those carts you rent at the airport to lug your bags around); and value (okay, I seriously cannot afford $700 on a stroller). We found that the Maclaran fits our needs best. A bonus: I love the look of this stroller. We have taken it on dirt trails at state parks (even though it's...

JoeBunny says "Do not buy the Phil and Ted Sport" about Phil and Ted's Sport Double Strollers

JoeBunny — Sun, 31 May 2009 19:03:50 GMT

I bought the Phil and Ted sport after much research. I was very excited about the great design and thought that the short comming of limited storage would be more than offset by the great design. I already had a Chariot double for use at home for frequent long walks and was looking for something that I could use for my almost 3 year old and newborn out and about with the car.

From day 1, this stroller has failed to perform as I expected it too. I was use to my Mountain Buggy Urban, which pushes like a dream, with one hand, super easy. The phil and ted stroller, even without the doubles seat, pales in comparison, it is very hard to push with one hand, a huge problem when you need to hold a toddlers hand in the parking lot of store, push a toddler while calming an infant, or just want to finish your drink. On that basis alone, I can't recommend it, but additionally, I have had numerous problems with the tires and tubs, resulting in frequent flats. I am currently waiting on yet...

OKELkids says "This is the Swiss Army Knife of Strollers!" about Phil and Ted's Sport Double Strollers

OKELkids — Sat, 30 May 2009 07:22:53 GMT

As a mother of four (which include a 2 year old and a newborn), this is by far the best heavy duty stroller I've ever owned. The design is amazing. I first saw a Phil and Ted's double stroller at a children's museum and absolutely had to find out the brand, it is by far the most compact double stroller on the market. The look is sleek and so is the function, you don't feel like you need a "wide load" sign attached to it while you're running it down the sidewalk or between the aisles of a grocery store. The manueverability is excellent, you can turn it easily with one hand if needed, which it's almost alway needed! The brakes are easy to engage and are solid, the wheels are large and can handle bumpy terrain, I especially like the option of a stationary or rotating front wheel. The frame is strong and can handle my tired six year old as easily as it can handle my two year old or newborn. It is the Swiss Army knife of strollers. The top seat with the adapter bar can handle......

blasekfamily says "Perfect for newborn and sibling!! " about Baby Trend Sit N Stand LX Stroller

blasekfamily — Tue, 26 May 2009 02:27:55 GMT

I was absolutely sold on this stroller after a friend lent it to me for an afternoon when my son was born and i had errands to run. I literally went out the next day and purchased the Baby Trend Sit and Stand LX stroller for myself ! I wish I would have put this on my baby registry because this is way more useful than a pack and play or 100 outfits!

My daughter is 4 years old and loves that she can make the choice to walk beside me, sit in front of me or stand and be carted around. She also loves being able to look over the front and see her baby brother enjoying the ride. We use this stroller at least 5 times a week to go on walks, run errands, go to local baseball games, and sit outside in the yard.

It's got a tray with cupholders up top for my drinks, a tray for snacks for the baby sit area and basket underneath to put your purse in. My only compaint is the way the basket is located on bottom; it makes it hard to reach and put things in it. However, if we are just going for a...

kiddos3 says "One of the better strollers but not the best" about Combi City Savvy All Weather Stroller

kiddos3 — Thu, 21 May 2009 06:35:34 GMT

So, the combi is a great stroller especially if you want to use it with a combi carseat. The main problem I have with the combi is that it is so light that when you push it the top of it moves before the bottom...kinda squirly. If you have heavy kiddos, it's definatley not for you. My kids lean toward small size, barely 20lbs at 1yr and it was difficult to push when she was that big. I would go with a Maclaren or a Chicco. Still chic, sporty and lightweight, but stronger...you must push a maclaren and then a combi with a 15-25 lb kid in it. The difference is significant. I do love the golfbag fold, but the umbrella fold is just as good. Just stay away from the big bulky strollers that take up all your trunkspace!

haileylafone says "Best single jogger!" about Jeep Overland Limited Edition Jogger

haileylafone — Mon, 18 May 2009 20:28:32 GMT

I have been using my Jeep Overland Limited Jogger for 3 years. I love it just as much now as when I first put it together. I love the Music On the Move. This was the feature that made me want this exact stroller. I love the case on the stroller for you to put your MP3 or CD Player. I also enjoy the speed and distance odometer. I love that I know how far I have been walking/running and for how long. It is also nice that it shows your speed so that you can keep a constant speed. I love the adjustable handle. I love that there are 2 parent cup holders and then another cup-holder on the child tray. I love that the stroller can with a hand air pump that you store in the bottom cargo space. I also enjoy that the weather shield came with the stroller too. The stroller has a great reclining seat. Both my children fall asleep easily in this stroller and stay comfortable. This stroller is super easy to fold and unfold. The one con I have is that the front wheel does...

mariposa767 says "Great stroller for the price/helpful to have Graco Car seat also" about Graco Stroller

mariposa767 — Sat, 16 May 2009 23:05:43 GMT

I received the Graco Safari Sun stroller as a gift to go along with the matching car seat. I love that it has a "travel system" in that the seat and stroller work together. I just take the car seat out of the base in the car, and snap it into the stroller and go! The only down side of the stroller that I have found is that it is a bit heavy for me. My daughter is 2 months old right now, so my arms haven't built up enough strength to get the stroller moved around much. I just leave it in the back of the car for my own convenience as I don't want to drag it back and forth between the house and the car. We have taken trips to a nearby park several times to walk the 1 mile paved trail there. The combination car seat/stroller has two separate canopies that can completely cover my baby to keep the sun out of her face if needed. It has a couple of convenient cup holders on top so that when my mom has been walking with us, we can both have our water bottles there. My diaper bag...

melwak says "Easy to push with TWO children" about Graco DuoGlider LXI Twin Seat Stroller

melwak — Sat, 16 May 2009 19:09:09 GMT

Thid new Graco DuoGlider LXI Twin Seat Stroller is the BEST twin seat stroller on the market. It comes in many, many different fabric styles that will fit any-ones taste and it has the best weight limit of many of the (much) more expensive strollers. It not only folds up a lot smaller that most other twin front to back strollers but it does it with ONE hand!!!!!! I can take my four month old and my three year old out and I dont even need help getting it out of the car (I am only four foot seven so I need e a lighteer weight stroller so I can do things with the both cildren by my self). The storage is wonderful and has easy acess , even when the seat is in a laying down position (most other strollers dont have this option. My car infant car seat will even fit this so I dont have to wake my four month old up from his nap! The "front" storage is great too because my three year old thinks he has a "special" place that he can keep his stuff when we take an outing to the...

JennO says "I have parts for an Evenflo Journey Elite Stroller" about Evenflo Journey Elite Stroller

JennO — Fri, 15 May 2009 14:54:57 GMT

I have an Evenflo Journey Elite Stroller that is missing a front wheel. It popped off while placing the stroller in the car and was lost. Unfortunately, Evenflo has limited replacement parts and the front wheel is not available. So, I'm selling parts off my stroller to those in a similar situation...I have no need for a stroller with just 3 wheels and it's in perfect condition otherwise. The wheels seem to be the biggest issue for buyers of this stroller. Let me know if you need parts. E-mail me at pow_@msn.com thanks, Jennifer...

Sunkistmk says "One size fits all versatility" about Baby Trend Expedition LX Jogger Travel System

Sunkistmk — Fri, 15 May 2009 01:05:35 GMT

The baby trend Jogger travel system is great. I love that I have the option to put the infant seat in and still use it as my son gets older. I have found it difficult to pull the trigger to lock the front tire and when it gets wobbling it's pretty tough to get back on track. I also wish there was more range in the seat for how straight it sits up and how flat it lays down. It seemed pretty limited. Other than that- I have loved this stroller/car seat combo. It's very easy to navigate, even one handed. It's also able to be driven over all sorts of rough terrain without too much trouble. There may be some bugs to work out but I still wouldn't trade it for another stroller- unless it's just a new improved version of this one.

cerippy says "By far the best!" about Uppa Baby - Vista Stroller Travel System

cerippy — Tue, 12 May 2009 17:37:14 GMT

This is my 3rd child and I really wanted to find the "perfect" stroller this time around!! I have found it. We LOVE our Uppa Baby Vista. I have the orange (Alex) and it is so cute! We have recieved somay compliments on the bright and cheerful color. The storage basket is huge and very accessible with any attachement n the stroller. I did not really use the bassinet feature that much. I purchased a Graco car seat adaptor and ended up using that with the stroller ore than the bassinet. We did use the basinet as a bed when traveling quite a bit. I love being able to quickly switch the toddler seat to face me or out and also to be able to switch between carseat, bassint and toddler seat easily without having to switch fabrics around. It flods very easily and compactly and the customer service at Uppa is wonderful. For the price, the Uppa Baby Vista can't be beat. I use it with both the baby and my 4 yr old.

iluvmyfamilyof5 says "Never leave home without the Graco IPO stroller" about Graco IPO

iluvmyfamilyof5 — Mon, 11 May 2009 19:39:16 GMT

I bought the Graco IPO stroller cause my baby is only 2.5 and she was out growing her other "umbrella" stroller so I was looking for something that went to a heavier weight. She weighs 37 pounds and is 37 inches tall. She has already broken the foot rest on her other stroller so she has to hold her feet in the air when she went in it. I knew I was going to be using the stroller for at least another year. As I was researching the strollers this one really caught my eye. For the weight limit, it is very inexpensive. I love that it goes up to 50 pounds and that the foot rest is sturdier than most. I also love that it folds very very compactly. This stroller also reclines, so that is a plus for my daughter since she still tends to fall asleep in the stroller a lot of the time. It comes in a variety of colors to meet your theme. I would recommend this stroller to anyone that is in the market for a new stroller.

carolyn220 says "I love my peg perego double stroller" about Peg Perego Aria Twin Double Stroller

carolyn220 — Mon, 11 May 2009 19:16:27 GMT

I recently got a peg perego aria double stroller second hand. I personally love it although it looks like the reviews are tough. It is harder to steer once both kids are in it due to weight distribution but i assume that happens with a lot of strollers. My favorite part is the light weight of the stroller... and i love that my kids sit side by side. They can see and entertain each other. Though this does make it hard to maneuver through some things, i find it more helpful than hurtful.

This thing is wonderful to travel with. It is so easy to fold and open up. All you do is pull basically and it has unfolded. It is not quite a one handed job, but i can do it while holding my baby.

The steering is a bit hard when both kids are in the stroller, as stated in other reviews, but i dont mind it.. it is a lot better than my previous stroller, so that is why. It doesn't have a big wheels so you do have to work a bit to get it over some cracks. I got it second-hand so i can't speak for price...
