Strollers: how to choose the right one?
Making the right choice among several models of strollers is often difficult if you don’t receive the right assistance, due to the different kinds available on the market, and you might be attracted by features that have no importance for our needs.
First of all we have to consider that the stroller is probably the accessory you will use most during the early childhood as the stroller will be used for around 3-4 years.
Another element that you have to consider is that you will not find a stroller that can complies with all your needs, that’s why often you need to purchase 2 strollers, one for everyday use and another one to be used on special occasions (at the beach, on holidays or for a flight trip etc…)
Concerning the stroller you will use most you have to consider the following elements:
Dimensions of the trunk of your car
Dimensions of the lift you usually use
Folding system of the stroller (umbrella or book folding system)
Handles of the stroller (if just one or 2 separate handles)
Where you need to use the stroller most (rough paths, city streets)
Weight of the assembled stroller
After you have considered all these points we start to choose the ideal stroller according to the following elements.
If you don’t have so much space in your car you have to choose an umbrella stroller, as much less bulky than a book folding system stroller.
Among the models of umbrella folding system strollers there are some that can be folded using just one hand and free stands when folded; this feature is really important if you need to fold/unfold the stroller while carrying the baby in your arms; for example if you need to get up the stairs with your baby that still can’t walk this kind of stroller is a valid help, otherwise everything would be more difficult.
Book folding system strollers, despite they are more complicated to fold, they have some advantages: first of all the handle. These strollers have in fact just one single handle (you don’t find 2 separate handles like most of the umbrella stroller) so this means a better handing even using just one hand.
What is more, they have a wider seat that makes the baby feel more comfortable and above all, this is a kind of strollers that can be used for long time because- as being wider- follows your baby in hi growth.
If you need to use the stroller mostly on rough paths you should choose a stroller with big wheels, even better a 3 wheel strollers!
These strollers is in fact are extremely easy to handle and allows you to walk on any kind of paths.
They have a book folding system.
Finally we should consider that the stroller has to be the lightest as it is possible (just after having satisfied all the other features) as at its weight will be added to the weight of your baby, so a heavier stroller implies a more important effort.
On the market you can find any kind of strollers that satisfy everyone’s needs.
Just to give you some examples we can suggest the trustable stroller Chicco or the elegant stroller Inglesina.
For those who wish to be original the better choice is the stroller Stokke, while for those who like classic taste Bébé Confort strollers are an ideal choice.
For those who wish to be fashionable the most suitable stroller is definitely MacLaren, for those who anticipate the fashion the stroller Jané is a must.
For those who love the most famous kitty in the world they can’t miss the stroller Brevi Hello Kitty, while the tradition is best represented by the stroller Peg–Perego
So now you just need to choose!
