Even the smallest child requires a lot of investment in its development. In this article, let's talk about how to choose the right stroller: what you need to consider and know. And also will consider the basic reviews about the most popular models of this children's mode of transport.

About diversity

If a modern person wants to buy a certain product, what will he first of all pay attention to? That's right, for customer reviews. Stroller walking in this situation is no exception. To study this mode of transport, you can by different characteristics, but the surest way is not to make a mistake with the choice - to find out what models experienced moms prefer. So, first of all it is necessary to say that conventionally wheelchairs for walking can be divided into three large weight groups:

1. Heavyweights: their average weight is 10-12 kg, however it can reach up to 15.
2. Lightweight wheelchairs: their weight is on average 6-8 kg, but they have all the functions that heavyweights do.
3. Super lightweight strollers: most often they are called "canes", their weight is on average 3-5 kg.

They are also divided into summer and winter (according to the season), strollers and strollers (books by type of folding), on three- and four-wheel models.

Advantages

What are the advantages of walking strollers? Customer testimonials say the following:

1. It is light and small in size (compared to a conventional stroller). This often becomes the main argument in the desire of the mother to change the wheelchair to a more ergonomic option.
2. Compactness. All strollers can be folded like a book or a cane. Thanks to this with such strollers you can travel, move on public transport, without problems to store even in a small apartment.
3. Relatively low prices.

disadvantages

Having looked at the positive characteristics of this type of transport, it is also necessary to find out whether there are negative reviews? Carriages are not so ideal if it's better to take a closer look. Their main disadvantages:

1. Low level of comfort. Compared with conventional stroller in walking, there is often less room to accommodate a baby, and a less comfortable sleeping position.
2. Protection. Lower level of protection from bad weather.
3. Insufficient depreciation (compared to conventional strollers).
4. Poor traffic. Most of them with huge problems will pass through the snow or mud drifts, and they are also not recommended to be purchased for transportation on the ground.

What to look for when choosing?

So what should be a good stroller? Buyers' comments say that you need to first thoroughly study not only the advantages, but also the disadvantages of this type of transport, and afterwards think: is it worth buying it or is it better to walk with the baby in a conventional stroller after all. What do you need to pay attention to when choosing?

1. When choosing transport for a walk, you need to pay attention to the front wheels of this type of transport. If they are double, the stroller itself can turn into an uncontrolled one, sometimes the wheels become a yuz, which hinders the movement.
2. Compared with conventional strollers in the promenade for sitting baby is less. This is also worth paying attention to when choosing. In some models, the child will also not have enough sleep.
3. "Walking" strollers. Not all of them are able to "step" on the stairs. If this is important (in the house, for example, there is no elevator), when choosing this fact, you need to pay special attention.
4. What else do consumers say? Strollers are more likely to have less sturdy construction than conventional strollers. Scratches in the wheels are possible, which, however, without any problems is eliminated by conventional VD-shkoy.
5. When choosing this type of transport for the baby, you should also pay attention to the convenience for the mother. Strollers are more often more difficult to manage than their normal relatives. In this case, rarely equipped with a sufficient luggage compartment, and my mother is unlikely to be able to hang on the handle of such a stroller full of goods bag.
6. Handle: it's better if it's U-shaped (so Mom can talk on the way, for example, on the phone, pushing the stroller with one hand). If the pens are two, the stroller can not be carried with one hand. Also it is worth paying attention to whether the handle can be moved, which will allow changing the position of the child in the stroller. For some moms, this is an important nuance.
7. Security. Since the promenades are located quite low to the ground, they are very stable, which allows the child to climb inside by himself. However, it is worth paying attention to this nuance: is the side of the stroller high enough (which will not allow the baby to fall out during movement), is there any seat belts. And you should always remember: you can not take the baby out of the stroller when a certain weight hangs on its handle. So transport can roll over and hurt the crumbs.

Which is better: "winter" or "summer"?

Which is better to choose a stroller: summer or winter? What does this say about the reviews? Stroller walking, which are designed for winter, primarily have more powerful wheels (which also have a fairly large diameter). This allows children's transport without problems to drive through the snow and do not get stuck in it. Also these strollers will necessarily be equipped with a warm cover, which must be worn on the legs of the child, the stroller material will be more dense and inflated. Another important detail: in a winter wheelchair the baby will be more comfortable, since there is much more room. However, there are some disadvantages here: the winter one is more massive and more often is slightly heavier than the summer one. As for the version of the stroller for the warm season, its wheels will be of minimal diameter, the fabric is lighter, there is a small visor to protect it, which will hide the baby from the sun. It should be said that this type of transport is more suitable for children who are no longer sleeping on a walk, since in summer strollers the child normally does not have a chance to rest normally.

What is better to choose: "cane" or "book"?

What should be a good stroller? Customer testimonials say the following: for a child up to a year you need to take a stroller-book, since it has a fairly firm back, which is important for the formation of the baby's spine. The same in the "cane" is not, its back is made of lightweight material, which, however, allows the wheelchair to fold very compactly. So what is better to give preference? If mom and baby travel a lot and they need an ideal stroller, where you can relax and just go for a drive, it's better to take a stroller. The list of its advantages over the "cane":

1. More reliable and durable.
2. The back of the stroller has the stiffness necessary for the baby, often several adjustments.
3. It also transforms perfectly, which makes it easy to carry or transport in personal and even public transport.

What is so good a stroller? Customers' reviews say that it is much more compact in the folded version than the book. It takes up much less space, which often becomes the main factor when choosing this transport for the baby. However, it is not recommended to leave a child in a "cane" for sleep because of the lack of a rigid back.

Carriages by Capella

Each buyer, wishing to choose for his kid a good transport for a walk, will necessarily face a problem: and on which producer to stop, who will offer the ideal option? So, a few words should be said about the company Capella. Stroller walking (customer reviews confirm this) is quite heavy and looks massive. However, this ends all negative responses. In itself, it is large, which provides the baby enough space for convenient placement. The wheelbase is wider with respect to other manufacturers, which gives the wheelchair the ability to maneuver and be the so-called all-terrain vehicle. What are the different strollers Capella? Stroller (customer reviews, again, pay attention to this) is one of the most expensive, the price policy of most models is quite high. And although these strollers produce in South Korea, they are more expensive than Italian or German counterparts.

Carriages by Lider Kids

The main disadvantages are relatively heavy and massive models. However, according to the majority of parents, this is the most successful variant of a combination of price and quality.

Strollers by Jetem

1. Insufficient depreciation (which, incidentally, is the problem of all wheelchairs of this type compared to conventional ones).
2. Loop handle (especially present if the stroller has two positions: "face forward" and "face to mother").
3. Do not step (the pitch between the wheels of the models of this company is less).

This often displeases the buyers end. The advantages of the models of this company abound.
