Pros: Tall handles, Lightweight
Cons: Small basket, Small canopy
Review: Compared to other strollers, The First Years Jet Stroller has longer handles which make traveling more convenient for tall parents and a wider seat to keep your little one comfortable on long trips to the mall, zoo or park. It can also hold up to 50 pounds of weight and features a 5-point harness for your kid's protection and a multi-position recline that allows them to sit or take a nap whenever they want. In addition, it has larger wheels that enable easy maneuvering, rear wheel brakes that let it stay in place, a large parent console that has a cup holder and can accommodate a bunch of important things like your cell phone and keys and a storage basket for your kid's toys and diaper bag. On the other hand, a few nitpicks include its removable sun canopy that can be adjusted but doesn't do much because of its limited size and its basket which could be made larger so that you can bring along more things. On the positive side, the First Years Jet Stroller is very stable and doesn't wobble. It also boasts of a one-hand fold and weighs only 11 pounds. It makes a great choice if you're looking for a lightweight umbrella stroller that fits the bill and sits nicely in the trunk.
Pros: Comfortable grip, Easy to assemble, Durable fabric
Cons: Front seat doesn't recline very far back, Basket is not easily accessible
Review: The Joovy Caboose Ultralight Stroller features a 3-Position Front Seat Recline and a 4-Wheel Suspension designed to suit any parent's and child's need for comfort and security. It weighs just about 21 pounds and is 20 times lighter than the original Caboose. It also folds easily allowing you to get it in and out of your trunk with less effort. The large front seat of this stroller enables your younger child to take a nap or enjoy the view while the older one can sit and stand. It also has a padded rear set for your older child, a Removable Tray for snacks and keeping toys close at hand, an Oversized Canopy that serves as a shield against the sun and other harmful elements, a Universal Car Seat Adapter, and Linked rear brakes for added security. As an added benefit, the Joovy Caboose also has a storage basket perfect for storing your essentials, a Neoprene Parent Organizer that has dual cup holders and a rear zippered pocket for your valuables like cellphones, MP3 players and digital cameras. The only negative with the Ultralight is that the front seat doesn't recline as much as you would like it to and the basket is a little hard to access. Overall though, it's a well-made tandem stroller that is easy to maneuver and makes for a smooth ride with your children.
Pros: Lightweight, Folds compactly, Easy to use
Cons: Handle is not adjustable, No cup holder
Review: At only 11 pounds, Chicco's Ct 0.6 Stroller makes an ideal choice for traveling. It can accommodate up to 37 lbs of weight and sports an aluminum frame which makes it lightweight and sturdy. It is also equipped with a detachable canopy that protects your children from the sun and a padded five-point harness and multi-position reclining seat which keep them safe and comfortable during the ride. Since the height of its handle cannot be adjusted, it may be a bit short for tall parents but fortunately, it is easy to open and use. It also folds down to a very compact size, leaving you with a lot of space in the trunk. While it doesn't recline as further as we'd like and doesn't have a cup holder, this stroller features all-wheel suspension brakes and front wheel swivel locks that make it easy to maneuver. It also has a storage basket which is big enough to hold the essentials and a carry strap and bag for maximum portability. The Chicco Ct 0.6 Stroller comes with a trusted name and a handful of useful features. You can use it for a quick trip to the mall or for a long walk to the park. Overall, it is a great buy for those who want to skip the large and heavy stroller but doesn't want to suffer from poor quality and design.
Pros: Easily converts from single to double stroller with accessories, Secure harness, Wheels have suspension, Easy-clean canvas and aluminum material
Cons: Heavy, Only comes with child seat, Handles do not extend
Review: The fourteen different configurations shared between two modes of operation make the feature-packed Britax B-Ready the perfect choice for a growing family. The modular and fully adjustable nature of the stroller ensures that every need of parents and children is covered-and carried along. Initially coming with a child seat which makes for two possible configurations (front- and back-facing,) using separate accessories make the other configurations available. The child seat can be retrofitted with a separate seat for toddlers or even infants. You can still use the underside of the carriage to put in a whole other seat with room to spare to carry bags. Swapping out the seats is easy as they bolt on to the carriage chassis. The five-point harness securely locks your child in place while the attached pad cradles their head and neck. A large canopy with sun visor shields baby from heat and is raised to give a lot of head space. The wheels are solid rubber tires; the front ones have locking swivels for quick turns while the back ones have step brakes with color indicators. All of the wheels have suspension systems in place, but it is not an all-terrain stroller and is more suited for pavement use. In single mode, pushing the stroller is easy, but gets heavier and more difficult in double mode. The chassis is built from aluminum which makes it lightweight. The handle area grips are molded for comfortable one-handed steering. It is adjustable but instead of having it extend outwards, it simply bends at an angle. This may be a problem for taller people who use the second seat, as their shins may knock against the body of the seat. The body is made of durable canvas for easy cleaning and is also available in four colors. This stroller comes with no shortage of accessible space for baby care essentials and small items. The storage space for bags mentioned earlier has openings on all sides, and pocket holders attached to the chassis can carry car keys, mobile phones, baby bottles and other small items. Aside from insulated cup and bottle holders lining the sides of the chassis, the front bar can also have bottle holders clip on to it. Transporting the Britax B-Ready can be a little difficult. It folds down with locks and the back wheels detach but considering the number of features that it is loaded with, it is quite large. Smaller people might need to have the unit lying down when folding or unfolding it. In addition, while it is advertised that it can fold down while some accessories are attached, it is better to remove them beforehand to avoid damage.
Pros: Easy to fold and open, Small footprint
Cons: Limited movement of Sun Canopy, No parent tray
Review: The Combi Flare is a lightweight stroller that gives you a great value for your money. It folds compactly and quickly with its 3-second fold and is ideal for trips to the mall, park or simply for everyday use. Its few nits include its canopy that can only be moved up and down and its lack of parent tray which can be solved by buying a hook-on or by customizing it. On the positive side, it has a 5-point harness system for your child's safety, a Multi-position reclining seat that will keep them comfortable, a washable seat cushion, a removable cup holder and padded guardrail, a footrest for your toddler, an easy to access basket for storing food and toys and a carrying strap for your convenience. This self-standing stroller can be a little difficult to steer at times but it solves all your other problems. Compared to other models, its size and weight does not take up much floor space and enables it to fit in your car's trunk nicely. It is also made compatible with the Shuttle 33 Car Seat. All in all, the Combi Flare's portability plus usability makes it one of the best in its class.
