| Is there a perfect stroller |
I have been asked many times, "which stroller is the perfect stroller?" The truth is there is not one perfect stroller-only a stroller that is perfect for you. Each family has different needs. There are many different types of strollers and a number of features for each stroller type. For this reason, most families have several strollers to meet their various needs.
Because we all face different tasks, participate in different activities and live in different climates, there is a stroller designed to accommodate your particular lifestyle. The following information will help you identify the stroller that best meets your needs. Also look for our "Stroller Finder" tool, StrollerDepot.com product reviews and user reviews to help you select the perfect stroller for you. If at anytime you need more assistance, please call us at 800-533-5392.

Types of Strollers
|
||||||||||
| Lightweight strollers are convenient, portable
and affordable. These strollers, often referred to as umbrella strollers,
are generally less than 12 pounds and fold compactly to fit in trunks and
overhead compartments on planes. Lightweight strollers are useful for traveling
and quick trips. |

| Standard, or single, strollers offer the greatest
variety in features, styles, colors, price range and quality. In choosing
a standard stroller, consider your family activities and the amount you
would like to spend. Higher priced strollers generally provide a better
metal frame, higher quality wheels, a more comfortable handlebar and an
easy to fold mechanism. While some families choose to purchase a standard
stroller that will last for several children, other families choose to purchase
a less expensive model that may last for just one child. It is important
to remember you will probably use your standard stroller more than any of
your other strollers. |

| Families facing the exciting challenges of
twins, triplets or just several young children can benefit by selecting
a stroller in this category. The primary consideration is whether you want
your children to ride tandem (front to back) or side by side. Tandem strollers
offer more convenience and maneuverability through doorways, aisles and
sidewalks, but often create problems as to which child gets to ride in front.
Side by side strollers encourage child socialization and allow each child
to experience the ride, but can be problems while maneuvering through doorways
and other tight spaces. |

| Jogging, or All-Terrain, strollers are built
to enjoy outdoor recreation. Depending on the quality and included features,
you can take your jogging strollers just about anywhere. In the last several
years, jogging strollers have become lightweight, durable and easy to fold
and transport. These strollers provide a comfortable and smooth ride during
recreational activities. One of the primary considerations in selecting
a jogging stroller is the size of wheels. Larger wheels are generally selected
for serious running and off road activities. |

| Travel systems consist of stroller/car seat
combinations. Some travel systems allow for an infant car seat to attach
to a stroller while one system is fully integrated. Travel systems are great
while traveling with your children. Since both products are combined into
one system, there is the potential for cost savings. Additionally, backpack
strollers are becoming more popular and provide a good option for hiking. |
