It has three seating positions (upright to full-recline) and ample room for your little one. It can also be mounted... more

Tips on selecting a double stroller
Written by admin on November 23, 2009 – 7:13 pm -Types of double strollers There are two main types of traditional double strollers, plus some variations and alternatives. Tandem double strollers seat children one behind the other; this kind of double stroller is ideal for a baby and an older sibling, with the baby in the back seat because it reclines fully, and the toddler in front for more leg room and a better view. Of the two types of twin strollers, tandems fold to a more compact size and are slender enough to fit easily through doorways and grocery store aisles. However, testing shows they are hard to maneuver, a complaint also levied by some parents. Side-by-side double strollers seat children next to each other. For steering purposes, these strollers work best with twins or two kids... more

Despite recall, Maclaren stroller panic ‘unwarranted’
Written by admin on November 14, 2009 – 1:38 pm -By Gal Tziperman Lotan, The Patriot Ledger When a high-end baby stroller company recalled about one million strollers Monday after reports children’s fingers were being amputated on the hinges, some parents panicked, and at least one personal-injury lawyer started looking for clients. Maclaren USA, Inc., a popular British baby buggy company whose strollers typically retail for more than $125, issued a voluntary recall of nine models after receiving 12 reports of children amputating their fingertips on stroller hinges while caretakers were folding or unfolding the strollers. Even The Law Offices of James Sokolove, known for ubiquitous TV and radio ads offering support to mishap and accident victims, offered victims of stroller-related injuries... more

What to Look for When Buying a Stroller
Written by admin on October 30, 2009 – 6:18 pm -Before you buy any stroller look for the following: • Seatbelts: A restraint system is a must. Without it, any older baby worth his salt will do what he can to escape — and succeed. Look for three-point belt that wraps around his waist and between his legs. The buckle should be easy for you to undo, yet comfortable and secure for your child. For jogging strollers, a five-point harness is desirable since the extra shoulder straps keeps your baby more secure on bumpy turf. • Good brakes: Test them in the store. Are they easy to operate? The wheels should lock when you engage the brake. • Security: Make sure your stroller has an easy-to-use locking mechanism that prevents it from collapsing accidentally. • Hidden dangers: Examine the... more

Baby Strollers
Written by admin on October 13, 2009 – 4:13 am -Baby Must Haves: Strollers First, consider where you live and the local terrain. A stroller that's going to be used on city streets will need different features than one that'll primarily see action in a suburban mall or on well-maintained sidewalks; and a stroller that will be used in a rural area will require yet another set of criteria if it's going to hold up over time. Because where you'll be using your stroller really drives what you need, our book gives an in-depth features list based on locale. Here, a few points to consider if you're a city dweller: In urban areas, you'll need to scale curbs, maneuver over sidewalk cracks and potholes, and fit between narrow store aisles, juggle your stroller and baby in and out of public transportation,... more
