Characteristics of popular models of Joolz strollers

The birth of a tiny bundle of happiness in the family is an upheaval of the adult lifestyle: new worries, problems and purchases appear. One of the most important purchases is the first vehicle. But this raises the question of which model to choose. In order to give an answer, you should consider what types of wheelchairs exist, to determine the expectations of the device movement.

The first step is to consider the main types of children's vehicles.

• Classic. In such a transport, babies are transported from the first days of life to six months (a period of life when the children had not yet learned to sit). It creates favorable conditions for sleeping in the prone position, so its second name is the cradle.

• Walking Appears in the life of the toddler when he learned to sit in a sitting position. You can use it up to three years.
• Walking stick - a kind of pleasure. It is characterized by low weight due to the materials used: aluminum and plastic. You can turn a cane into a stroller with one touch of a button.

• Modular. Replaces several strollers for one. The modular system can consist of the walking block, a cradle, the chassis (2 in 1). In addition to the above three elements, may include a car seat (3 in 1).
• Transformer. It is similar to modular ones, but, unlike them, the cradle is not installed in place of the walking module, but is embedded in it. It turns out that this model is a pleasure, but as a supplement has a cradle.

Since your child will be in it almost the entire time of the walk, It should create comfort:

• in winter, the child is wrapped, so the height of the cradle sides is an important indicator;
• an even and firm bottom is an obligatory condition, because we are talking about the spine of the crumbs;
• materials should not cause allergies;
• the fabric outside is obliged to effectively perform a protective function: the infant should not suffer from adverse environmental conditions;
• fabric should be easily cleaned of all kinds of dirt;
• The mattress cover should be removed so that it can be washed;
• when moving parents with a stroller, she must successfully maneuver;
• the manufacturer must take care of the height-adjustable handle for the convenience of adults;
• for the cradle, a waterproof and cold-proof cape should be provided.

The passenger, able to sit, mobile, actively interested in the surrounding world, becomes a user of the stroller therefore, for this species its own characteristics.

• Baby feet should be on an adjustable stand.
• The seat must transform into several positions (sitting, reclining, lying). The seat design should provide the backrest stiffness required for the spine of a child sitting in a wheelchair.
• Be sure the presence of seat belts in order to prevent dropping out of the structure.

A lighter stroller, referred to as a cane, can be a substitute for a standard stroller. However, it should be remembered: this model has small wheels, which makes it difficult to move over bumps and other road obstacles, and in winter - over snow. A small hood does not protect against adverse weather conditions. May not have a stand for legs (or, if available, the stand is not adjustable).

The seat has the shape of a sagging hammock that does not benefit the backrest of a tiny passenger. And the apparent advantage in weight is the other side of the coin: the stroller can easily roll over. In general, the option is acceptable as a supplement to the existing standard or for use in the warm season.

This is a pragmatic choice - those who do not plan to buy one after the other carriages, but strive to get rid of unnecessary costs and to save space in the house.

Such models must meet the requirements that apply to the previous two types, but a number of important points should be taken into account:

• ease of replacing modules, their stability;
• availability of reliable fasteners and clamps;
• adjustable footboard for horizontal arrangement of the feet of the child;
• in the “3 in 1” system, it is important to pay special attention to the children's car seat: it should provide the infant with a position that pediatricians call the anatomically correct position;
• there must be a removable handrail;
• important element - seat belts;
• all accessories should be easy to unfasten - ideally done with one hand;
• there should be no gap between the structural elements.

The advantage of the model is the ability to adjust the backrest. Plus is compact.

However, a large weight (up to 10 kg) is the main drawback of this design. Not every mother will master the daily rise of such gravity (especially if you need to climb the upper floors of a high-rise building). A minus can be considered a cradle. As a rule, it is not insulated properly and is not suitable for use in winter. It also keeps its shape poorly, which will not in the best way affect the formation of the baby’s spine.

Choosing such a stroller, it is important to understand the design features, evaluate the dimensions of the product in its original and unfolded state, pay attention to the material from which it is made, examine the cradle intently (its degree of warming, bottom hardness, dimensions), because in infancy tends to grow rapidly. And this will cause the need to buy a new one, it will require additional cash costs.

The average mommy, who is on maternity leave, needs to have a vehicle designed for the period of childhood, for which the little man acquires the skills of walking (from birth until he reaches three years of age) for comfortable movement along the street with the child. The solution to this problem is the lineup of premium-class wheelchairs from Joolz: Joolz Day 2 in 1, Joolz Geo 2, Joolz Hub. Consider their characteristics.

• Maneuverable chassis.
• The hard, sufficiently sized bottom of the cradle (taking into account the growth prospects of the baby), providing the conditions for proper development of the back.
• Stroller material does not cause allergic reactions.
• The same applies to the mattress fabric. The cover on the mattress is removed for cleaning.
• The presence of the ventilation system, which is provided on the cradle frame below the hood and on the hood itself: the fabric is bent and fresh air penetrates through the mesh insert on the frame and the mesh section on the hood.
• The cape performs a protective function - the wind, rain and snow will not give the baby any discomfort. With the help of a zipper, it can be easily fastened or unfastened.
• The hood which is silently leaning back, of the sufficient sizes, there is an additional peak.
• When transforming a classic stroller into a stroller, a simple removal mechanism is used.
• Baby safety is provided by seat belts. Use the best option - five-point with soft lining, adjustable depending on the age of the child.

• The slope of the stroller's seat for walking is adjustable in 3 positions.
• Telescopic footrest adjustment.
• Reversible seat makes it possible to position the child facing the mother (which is important for very small) and facing the environment (for older children).
• Wheels made of foamed rubber help to avoid punctures possible when using inflatable wheels. In Joolz, they also have different diameters: the rear ones are larger, the front ones are smaller. In this case, the front wheels have the ability to rotate, as well as locked with a lock.
• Possibility of adjustment of the parental handle under growth of the managing director of a carriage of the adult.
• Convenience brake system.
• Compactness of children's transport in the folded state.

In the practical model Joolz Day 2 in 1 (equipped with a classic trio: chassis, cradle, walking block) use basic elements (hood, bumper, frame) at the same time in the classic and walking version. Only the fabric kit is replaced. Removable handle makes it easy to carry the cradle. The same handle serves as a bumper in the walking version. For a comfortable fit, the young passenger can be easily removed.

According to reviews of moms, this model is practical in operation, convenient to move, easily overcomes obstacles in the form of rubble, curbs. Drives well on uneven, snow-covered roads, but it should block the front wheels. Takes up little space in the folded state, easily transformed.

Users note a high level of quality of internal and external fabrics and materials. Lack of cracks, tightness of docking elements retain heat in the cradle. The cradle is rated as a comfortable and spacious device. Minus - slippery, but only because the user has not purchased a mattress cover.

Parents consider the walking block convenient, despite the fact that it is made in the shape of a hammock. By lightly pressing two buttons, it takes one of three positions. A plus is the fact that the cradle and the walking block are located high off the ground, which provides convenience when placing the child, and it is higher from the dusty road.

Joolz Geo 2 has all the capabilities of the previous version, but can also be transformed into a compact stroller for twins: when a removable shopping basket comes unfastened, space is released for the second pleasure unit.

Parents of twins say that this model has a high maneuverability, is one movement and takes up little space. Easily fit in the trunk when folded. However, some mothers consider it a disadvantage that one of the babies is too low from the surface of the earth.

Joolz Hub - new in 2018. It is a symbiosis of the best qualities of predecessors and new unique features. This modular model has a good indicator of throughput through the turnstile in the subway, elevator doors in a high-rise building, a doorway. The following configuration options are available:

• standard - with a walking block (from six months to three years);
• walking block + cradle (from birth to six months);
• walking block + cocoon for a newborn (from birth to one and a half years).
