How to Select a Stroller
Strollers are a parent's best friend. They allow parents to easily transport their children around town, explore nature or navigate busy shopping malls. It is crucial to select the right stroller that suits your child and family. Think about where and how often you'll use the stroller before selecting one that is appropriate for you. Do you need it to navigate rough terrain, fit in the trunk of a car that is small or fit through narrow doors? Also, consider whether you'll need to take it on walks around the city or out in the woods. After you've chosen the type of stroller you want and features you want you can try various models.
Begin with a few laps around the parking lot to get familiar with its handling and moves. If you plan to use it to run, test the tires for durability and test out how well they move over bumps and uneven sidewalks. Then, consider whether you require a storage basket to carry essentials or a reclining seat for infants. Also, make sure the handlebars are a comfortable height for your stride and that there's enough room in the seat to accommodate the child of your size.
If you are planning to have more children in the future You might be interested in a single stroller that could be transformed into a double stroller or a stroller board for toddlers. One of the most common stroller regrets for parents of Babylist is not buying an convertible model.
Also, if you'll be using the stroller in the rain or other weather conditions, look for accessories like sun canopies and rain covers that can be swiftly and easily connected. Also, make sure to check for a five-point harness system that is easy to unbuckle and buckle with a secure seat, as well as sturdy brakes. Also, check the hinges to ensure there aren't sharp edges or spots where a tiny finger could get stuck. Also, ensure that the stroller meets local and state safety standards. Finally, try it out with your child to ensure that you're both at ease.
Strollers for One Child
It is possible that you only need one stroller if you have just one child. These strollers are usually smaller than full-sized models and have the same safety features as larger strollers, including a large canopy to shield your child from sun and wind. They're also often more maneuverable and have fewer parts that could break.
If your child is in an infant car seat, a stroller with an infant carrier included is a good option. These strollers have strong frames that can accommodate several seats or even a second infant car seat that is attached to the base. They are generally easier to use and are less expensive in the beginning than convertible or double strollers.
A stroller that's all-in one is a great choice for older children. They come with a big, spacious basket to carry your child's things and will fit most infant diaper bags. They are also easy to maneuver and narrow enough to fit into the bathroom or doorway. They can also be folded and stored in a car's back or closet for quick transport.
If you're looking for a stroller which will grow with your family, consider a convertible model. They come with frames that can accommodate up to two toddler chairs or even a bassinet (carriers and adapters are available separately). They're typically more expensive than single-seat strollers but they're a great option for families that want to move around with ease and are flexible in terms of seating. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 is our top pick for a premium convertible stroller with top features and can carry up to three children easily (age-dependent).
Strollers for Two Children
If you have two young children, a double Stroller Single is a must to move both simultaneously. There are many options, including tandems, side-by-side strollers and wagons. A majority of the double strollers we tested are able to accommodate an additional child seat or even a third if you add a piggyback ride-along boards (sold separately). Tandem strollers come in more designs to accommodate different ages and stages. However they tend to be heavier and bulkier than side-byside models.
Parents of twins will need a stroller that has the same seating options as their children, and they likely will require a stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously which is something that only a handful of our top-rated double strollers offer. A tandem stroller is ideal for twins who are similar in age or capability. However the seating arrangement is dependent on how far each twin is and which features they prefer.
In our tests, we found that all the tandem strollers we reviewed were easy to maneuver and had a large turning radius. However, they did not turn as well as a single strollers that connect stroller in small areas and could be difficult to navigate around curbs. The majority of the side-byside strollers that we tested could fit through standard doors. However, they might have a narrower aisle than a single-stroller.
A few of the side-by sides we tested included the option of a second seat for toddlers, but you couldn't switch them out and in. This is a great feature if your kids are at different ages. The UPPAbaby V2 Double was the exception to this rule. It lets you effortlessly switch between double and single mode with its convertible frame.
Side-by-side strollers are by far the most popular model in our double stroller category and we've tested a few of the most effective options that are available. They provide the convenience of keeping both kids within sight at all times, and most come with plenty of storage space for your gear. Some have parent consoles that can aid in keeping the track of your child's wants and requirements. Some are priced at the same cost as our best lightweight single stroller single strollers, whereas others are more expensive.
