What To Look Out For When Purchasing A Baby Stroller

Share:    

When purchasing your number one stroller, there are many things to be considered

. The vast difference in both price and use combined with the even larger amount of child stroller styles makes this a probable minefield. Have a look at the Uppababy Vista Reviews and the Bugaboo Cameleon reviews for the more luxurious strollers. The Bugaboo Cameleon is the more expensive of the two.

But don't panic. As long as you have done some research, we can thin the list down to what you really need and keep it within your price range.

Price:

Price varies hugely in the baby stroller market. But bear in mind that you generally do get what you pay for so if at all viable, try to not scrimp on the budget for your baby stroller.

Single, Double or Triple:

This is a rather elementary decision. However you may decide to have more children. Having another baby may mean buying another baby stroller. You need to know if your stroller can hold another seat or bassinet. The Bugaboo Cameleon Stroller is a single only.

Transportation system:

If you drive a car then you are probably going to need a transportation system. It allows you to very quickly detach the baby seat from the stroller and attach it to the car. Your newborn does not need to be taken out of the stroller seat and sat into a different car seat.

Terrain:

Think about the type of surface you are going to be using the stroller on. Sidewalks, paved surfaces, gravel, sand, grass, bumpy ground etc. The type of surface is a main consideration on what type of stroller you should get. If you are going to be going over rough ground then your babies comfort is going to suffer. The ride comfort can be improved by having good suspension and tires and having plenty of padding on the seat. Having excess comfort will cost money.

Storage:

Have a look at how easily the stroller folds. How heavy is it? Todays strollers are light weight but folding techniques vary considerably. This is an crucial consideration. Does the stroller have indicators to let you know if it is in the locked position or the unlocked position? Does the stroller take up much space when it is folded? Try this out in the shop before buying.

Bassinet:

Check to see if a bassinet is included with your stroller as many models do not supply a bassinet. Is the bassinet of good quality? Can the textile be removed and washed? What kind of material is used in the bassinet?

Space:

Is there space to carry a diaper bag and shopping? The storage basket is commonly below the seat but may be behind the seat. Trust me when I say that the bigger it is, the better. It can never be big enough.

Accessories:

Does the stroller come with any accessories? E.g. cellphone holder, coffee mug holder etc.

Wheels:

Larger wheels are best over rough terrain. Smaller wheels are superior for maneuverability. Do the tires need to be inflated? Some tires never require to be inflated.

Maneuverability:

Some strollers are very awkward to manoeuvre. Try to persuade the store to let you try the stroller for a few minutes before you purchase it. Even if it just around the shop floor.

So after all that, you should have a good idea what you are looking for and you should have a stroller that is perfect for you and in the cost range you wanted. If I could afford it, I would go for the Bugaboo Cameleon Stroller so I would check out Bugaboo Cameleon Reviews.
