Strollers: a variety of models and features of choice

The birth of a child forces parents to buy a huge variety of different children's things, among which almost the main one is a stroller. This is the first vehicle in the child’s life in which he will spend a significant portion of his time, and since he is completely helpless so far, comfort, convenience and safety should be provided at the highest level, and ideally - not only for him, but also for parents .

The parents themselves are not always able to find their ideal from the first time, because they have no experience, even if it’s bad, and the range of modern manufacturers is such that their eyes just run up. For this reason, even before making a purchase, you need to figure out what kind of strollers are and what criteria to choose them in order to at least try to choose a good model the first time.

The large choice of wheelchairs is not without reason so diverse - as there are parents and their children, so many opinions exist on how to choose strollers. If we talk about the selection criteria in general, they can be divided into two main groups - some factors seem to be in great demand in any situation, while others are more dependent on the personal preferences of the parents or the individual characteristics of their child.

For example, the safety of the baby should be ensured in any stroller - this will be confirmed by any sensible person. In terms of fixing reliability, nothing better than five-point belts has yet been invented, because if the choice is to take a stroller with such straps or without them, then there is nothing to think about - you only need to take a stroller with a child restraint system on five mounts. But then, the child is turned to face the mother or in the direction of movement - this is only a matter of taste, and it is impossible to give a specific recommendation for everyone here.

If we talk about individual characteristics, it is easy to assume that the same double stroller will be useless for parents of one child, but indispensable for parents of twins.

This means that there are no stupid wheelchairs - perhaps the chosen model is just not very suitable for a particular child. True, it is necessary to make an important caveat here that most well-known manufacturers usually collect mostly positive reviews from the majority of manufacturers, while many models turn out to be mercilessly criticized by "nameless" Chinese companies. Indeed, the seat can be trite uncomfortable, and the whole structure is too heavy and clumsy, and then the wheelchair cannot be called good, but the parents pushed something to buy this particular model - it means they saw some advantages in it, even though disappointed. Most often, the decisive factor in such cases is the low cost.

In this case, it is money that is the selection criterion that should be neglected in the first place. As a rule, those families who are trying to save money on the first carriage are very quickly faced with the fact that it is necessary to buy a second one - and it’s good if the child just grew up and never made a cheap purchase.

If the stroller is good for everyone, but the child is just uncomfortable, walks will not bring pleasure to either the children or their parents. The baby, instead of sleeping normally or breathing fresh air, will begin to act up, and mom will have to calm him down, and with time she, it is possible, will lose any desire to go for walks, accompanied by childish tantrums.

But the inconvenience of the baby is most dangerous not even this, but the likelihood of violations in the development of the musculoskeletal system, because the constantly occupied wrong position is critically dangerous for the fragile child skeleton.

The convenience of parents greatly affects how often the baby will walk. If the stroller is light, passes without problems into the elevator and descends the stairs, is able to drive through the door of any supermarket and overcome any bumps in the nearest park, it means that the child will accompany the adults in their daily life constantly. On the street, the air is more likely to be fresher than indoors, and there is much more interesting here to develop at an accelerated pace.

If these conditions are not met, it is likely that the mother will condemn herself to voluntary many years imprisonment in the walls of the house, finding that it will be much easier for her to care for the child. Even in rare cases, when she still leaves the house, she would prefer to leave the baby in the crib while someone replaces her. In the end, if the stroller is uncomfortable and cannot urgently adapt to people with different parameters, then the same grandmother will not be able to replace her mother - she will simply be too uncomfortable.

In a word, it is not necessary to choose a carriage with an eye on any one criterion or group of criteria. It must always be remembered that the best construction is one that satisfies absolutely all the criteria, and not only those that seem most obvious. In the process of daily operation, it may turn out that a small flaw is very significant.

The constructive variety of baby strollers is quite significant - it is caused by both different needs and different visions of designers.

Of course, it’s worth starting with those moments that are fundamentally important when choosing. For example, it is almost always more convenient for parents of two children to carry them in one big wheelchair than in two separate ones, if only because with two separate wheelchairs one person cannot organize such a walk. As a rule, dad at this stage of life is busy making active money to support the whole family, so it turns out that mom, not having the opportunity to burst between two children, should always walk with both at once.

At the same time, some parents with whom the grandmother lives, for example, can do the opposite in principle, buying two separate, and therefore lighter strollers, which, in extreme cases, can be connected with a special clipboard. Something similar triple solution exists for three children. It is logical that for a single child choose a single model.

A mandatory criterion for the selection of wheelchairs is also the age of the child. The first six months of his life the baby is not able to get up - he lies all the time, so he needs a cradle. In the future, the child learns to sit down, but because of the activity that is innate and normal for this age, he no longer wants to lie - he is interested in the world around him, so he would be happy to sit, surveying the opening views.

In this regard, there are several types of stroller design. The so-called simple cradles do not imply a change in their shape - they have a hard bottom that guarantees the correct lying position of the baby.The stroller provides a comfortable sitting position, although it almost always allows you to adjust the backrest to lie down or at least recline.

Transformer models usually try to combine both the cradle and the stroller, thanks to which they enjoy success among consumers for the prospect of using up to the child’s conscious age, but often chasing two rabbits gives a mediocre result in both the cradle and the walking block .

Alternatively, you can use the stroller 2 in 1, where the chassis comes in only one instance, but two units are immediately provided with removable units - a separate cradle and a walking unit. An even more versatile solution is a 3 in 1 stroller, which even includes a car seat.

Not all important, but still very important constructive point is the ability to fold the stroller. Foldable design requires less storage space, and in recent years, manufacturers also offer special, well-thought-out models that can be folded with one hand, which is very convenient when passing with a child through narrow elevator doors. On this basis, all folding strollers are divided into two main types - the so-called “books” and “canes”.

"Books" is thoroughness. The creators of such models are guided by the fact that the most important thing is still the health of the baby, because they provide the stroller with a full-fledged hard seat. Hence the probable disadvantages of such a model, consisting in considerable weight and the same cost, as well as in tangible dimensions even when folded, however, both doctors and experienced parents will prove that this is more correct.

"Cane" attract customers with its ease and mobility. The bottom here is usually made of cloth, and the only hard support can be one rod, which is also folded, if needed. As a result, the stroller, made of inexpensive materials, is very inexpensive, and even able to become amazingly compact. The only, but global, minus is harm to the spine of a child.

It is clear that there are those strollers that do not belong to any of these species. For example, the same 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 are organized according to a completely different principle, since the chassis is folded separately, and the blocks may not be folded at all, or each one does it according to a different scheme. Classic cradles do not fold at all - they are not allowed to make this rigid base. In models designed for several children, the design can either relate to one of the above described varieties or be special.

The last constructive moment associated exclusively with the convenience of each individual consumer is where the children are deployed. In some wheelchairs, they sit facing their parents, which allows adults to control everything that happens, but closes the view of the surrounding area to the kids. The opposite is the stroller, in which children sit in the direction of movement - then they see everything around well, but they themselves are hidden from their parents' eyes, unless the manufacturer has made a special window for the hood in the hood.

Finally, many manufacturers, especially in transforming and difficult to fold models, have provided for the possibility of turning the handle so that the owners themselves each time determine which direction to be turned to the child.

It should be noted that double and triple strollers are a completely separate topic in terms of design. If the seats are arranged side by side, then the classification is approximately the same - the division into “canes” and “books” or transformers is also observed.However, in multi-seat transport, the kids can sit and “train”, when their seats are located one behind the other - so the design becomes much narrower, which greatly improves its passability through narrow doors. In this case, children in a small train can be located not only facing the parents or in the direction of movement, but also facing each other or vice versa - with their backs to each other.

There are cases when one of the children is above the second. Even strollers are available for children with a small difference in age - then it is permissible to simultaneously use the cradle and the walking unit on the same chassis, or a special platform is provided for the older one on which he can sit or stand.

Its cost and weight, as well as the degree of comfort and durability, depend on the materials used in the production of the stroller. With the frame, everything is relatively simple - ideally, it should be metal, better than aluminum, since this material is lightweight and extremely durable. However, such strollers are becoming less common, since they are being forced out by their counterparts with a cheaper and not always less durable plastic housing. As for the wheels, they, contrary to popular belief, are one of the most important parts of the wheelchair, so they deserve separate consideration below.

Very important in terms of choice is the material from which the hood is sewn and capes or blankets are made. According to this criterion, carriages can be divided into winter, summer and demi-season, depending on how much they provide for the warmth.

For a winter carriage, it is crucial to keep warm, since not all parents are willing to spend money on a full-fledged wardrobe for a child who will outgrow the purchased items in just a few months. In addition, due to the not very strict observance by the child of the rules of personal hygiene and his inability to dress independently, adults prefer to insulate not the child himself, but his carriage. Accordingly, the hood of the winter stroller will certainly be thick, and a blanket or a warmed envelope must be supplied in the kit.

For summer, it is important to find the optimal compromise between the ability of the fabric to protect from rain and wind and the ability to ensure normal ventilation of the space under the hood. Being in a half-closed space, the child is constantly confronted with a noticeable greenhouse effect, and therefore the fabric must still pass the air.

An important bonus to help protect against potential allergens - insects, plant pollen and dust, is a mosquito net. As such, tulle, organza or chiffon are used, and if parents acquire such a thing on their own, you need to find a compromise in the size of the holes between the small ones, which protect against any intrusions, and the large ones, which let air through well.

It is easy to assume that in the case of a demi-season stroller the materials should correspond approximately to the averaged values.Since there are no solutions that are equally comfortable for the end of one season and for the beginning of the opposite, the solution can be found in the form of purchasing several insulated envelopes, each of which will be made of different materials, providing a gradation of protection from the cold.

In pursuit of high-quality material, the most appropriate for the season, we must not forget that he will definitely need care in the form of cleaning or washing. A child at the age when he is still riding in a stroller will definitely not care about maintaining cleanliness, which means that he will have to direct him many times over. In this regard, the choice in favor of those fabrics that repel or simply do not absorb dirt.

Some parents are trying to solve this problem with a leather stroller, but here we should not forget that this solution will kill any ventilation, although it will protect from rain more reliably than any analogs. For this reason, eco-leather as a material for the hood is rather a design moment rather than a practical solution. It remains to choose the design of the stroller, allowing the removal of covers for maintenance, and the covers themselves, unpretentious to the conditions of washing.

Separately need to say about the mattress. Many adults would gladly choose the softest option for themselves, but for a child it would be very harmful - not for nothing that a hard bottom is considered a very preferable factor in the choice of a stroller. Accordingly, the mattress should only slightly soften the rigidity, but not constitute a full-fledged feather bed.

In the case of wheels, absolutely everything is important - their number and size, location and material of manufacture. A stroller is a vehicle for its intended purpose, and therefore it depends on the wheels how long it will be able to operate.

We should start with the material, because this factor is the most fundamental. Recently, low-cost models are increasingly equipped with plastic wheels, since they are inexpensive to the manufacturer, but this decision is usually met with criticism. The fact is that plastic is a material that usually does not have elasticity, because the lack of such wheels is striking when you first descend the stairs, because the baby is shaking mercilessly. These wheels do not contribute to the depreciation, because with them you can only drive on perfectly flat roads, but this does not help to solve another problem - the plastic wipes quickly, which is why the wheels become completely unusable.

A good alternative, many consumers consider inflatable rubber wheels, which show where the best depreciation effect. Another thing is that the tires will have to be pumped up periodically, and if the camera also completely breaks through on a sharp stone, the parents will have difficulty.

If we are talking about depreciation, we can not pay attention to the size of the wheels. If parents love to walk in a park or wooded area, or they are just not lucky to live in a city with classic Russian potholes, you only need to choose wheels with a rather large diameter. This stroller is a real "all-terrain vehicle", because the large diameter does not allow the wheels to penetrate into all cavities - it turns out that the stroller does not get stuck and is not so much shaking on small hollows.On the other hand, large wheels somewhat reduce the permeability, since in general they increase the dimensions of the carriage and do not always allow it to pass along a narrow, but well-packed track.

To increase the permeability of the stroller with large wheels, you need to ensure at least that the front ones are pivotal, that is, they can rotate around their own axis - this will allow the vehicle to rotate in place, if necessary. At the same time, for better cross-over potholes, it is crucial that the possibility of turning the wheels can be blocked, otherwise the wheelchair will overturn on an uneven road.

The number and location of the wheels affect both the size and maneuverability, and the stability of the stroller. For example, if all the wheels of a vehicle are doubled, then it is probably better on the surface, it does not react so sensitively to road irregularities, and it is also additionally secured in case one of the wheels does not stand bumps and just breaks off. At the same time, wheels can be located both in all four corners and in the form of a triangle, when in front, instead of a full axis, there will be only one single or dual wheel.

The "triangle" will always be more compact, it is much easier to fit in an elevator or public transport, it is also easier and more maneuverable, but it is worse on a flat surface, and an overly active child can simply overturn it. The model with wheels in all four corners, respectively, has completely opposite characteristics - it is more cumbersome and inconvenient, but you can be absolutely sure that it will not overturn.

Since, when considering the features of the wheels, it was mentioned the need to turn them, it is worth mentioning the presence of brakes. Some types of wheelchairs provide for their installation on all wheels, somewhere they are put on only one axle, but practice shows that the more brakes, the more reliable the standing position of the stroller on a steep slope.

Without exception, mothers would like to choose beautiful strollers that will look stylish and attractive. However, when choosing a design for children's transport, one should proceed not only and not so much from the external attractiveness of the model, but rather from practicality.

It should be noted that in a wheelchair, children usually ride only two or three years at the beginning of their life journey, and this period is characterized by some features of psycho-emotional development. The fact is that a kid at that age is very interested in any bright objects, but he is not yet able to concentrate his attention for a long time, because he gets tired very quickly. It turns out to be a contradiction: on the one hand, it attracts the colorful, on the other - it tires us out too quickly. As a result, the child forgets about healthy sleep, becomes nervous and restless, often crying.

That is why too bright, flashy colors are not welcome, as well as sophisticated intricate patterns, even if directly related to children's themes. Most often, preference is given to monochromatic patterns, such as blue or maroon. In the summer, it is very important to choose a stroller also on the principle of light tone, since this will additionally protect the baby from the heat, because the white stroller may be not just stylish, but also very practical.

As for the additional decorations of the hood, the maximum that is allowed is simple peas of a different shade, not too small and frequent.

However, it is also not worthwhile to fall into extreme asceticism - various interesting knick-knacks are useful for the kid, as long as they are in moderation.A toy-suspension will help to decorate the stroller, which is in the field of view of the child for exactly as long as necessary so as not to overdo the baby. For such toys, the brightness and the presence of small parts is not forbidden, but they need to be properly selected depending on the age of the small owner.

You can pick up the pendants and the color, and if necessary, they are quickly removed as to give the baby a nap, and for washing or a banal style change.

An important accessory for both the functionality and appearance of the stroller is the organizer. So called a special bag that complements children's transport, allowing you to store it all necessary for the care of the baby stuff. Some models of wheelchairs already suggest entry into the package of delivery, others make it possible to purchase a bag from the same brand separately - both of these options are not bad in terms of compatibility, since they are well suited in both shape and color of fabric covers.

If the manufacturer did not take care of the development of such an accessory of its own production, you can try to purchase the bag separately - there are universal models. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the size and shape of the bag, so that it does not interfere with movement or hang on the hand during the walk, and also select the accessory in tune with the wheelchair.

If we talk about the choice of wheelchairs in general, then there is a huge mass of criteria, each of which influences the definition of the best. The only thing that should be forgotten right away is generalized recommendations like “the best carriage”, because every child needs a special model that will be the best for him. It happens that most of the kids really like the named model, but it is yours that will not work for objective reasons - in this situation, of course, you should choose something else.

In general, the following criteria are mandatory for consideration.

Different types of designs are designed for completely different needs, the question here is not even in preferences, but in needs. For winter, you need to look for warmed models; for summer, on the contrary, lightweight ones. A family with one child chooses a single stroller, happy parents of twins are looking for a double, and those who are lucky to have two kids with a small difference in age should look for a model for weather where an older child would have opportunities for running alongside and for a seated trip .

This choice is highly dependent on the age of the baby, because in the first six months it should be a cradle and only a cradle, even if theoretically she can turn into a seat. Next is sitting in the priority, but also with clarification - the child will often want to sleep, so it would be nice if it could turn into the same cradle or its likeness. In any case, a reliable, solid foundation is a significant contribution to the future health of your baby.

Most often, the size of the pram is fundamentally determined by the distance between the outside of the wheels, because the problem usually lies in passing through narrow doors. If this is still the case with supermarkets, the old Soviet-style elevators set a strict limit, not allowing young mothers to use all the comforts of modern apartment buildings. For this reason, a preliminary measurement of the width of the elevator is not a strange whim, but a very reasonable step, aimed at practicality.

If the family has its own car, you need to evaluate your favorite model also in terms of whether it fits in the trunk.It is also useful to determine whether it is convenient to store a purchase of this size in an apartment, and even if the advantage of folding is the advantage of assessing how convenient it will be to do it several times a day.

The frame is what keeps the whole stroller, because it must meet two slightly opposite indicators - to be light and at the same time durable and reliable. Modern manufacturers solve this problem with aluminum or high-impact plastic. In this case, the chassis should be assessed from the point of view of the stability of the structure - even if the load is not correctly distributed, the wheelchair should not be warped.

A young child is constantly sleeping, and if the shock absorbers together with the wheels do not provide him with a smooth and quiet ride on our roads, then every walk will not be a pleasure for him, but an agony. In this situation, parents are also unlikely to be happy, so you should carefully choose the stroller for the degree of depreciation. Much has been said above about how this factor influences this factor, but it is also necessary to evaluate the shock absorbers on the chassis and at the place of attachment of the bassinet or seat.

If the wheelchair can be braked only with the help of its own physical strength, then it would be worth leaving it in the past century. Today, almost all strollers are equipped with brakes, since this is an important guarantee of the baby’s safety, but this mechanism can be implemented in different ways.

The brake tube is good because with one simple pushing it locks two wheels at once - this is more reliable, because even if one of its parts gets stuck, the second wheel is blocked in any case. However, many manufacturers deliberately allocate a separate pedal for each wheel, considering that only systems independent of each other can reliably insure each other.

The handbrake, located at the top, is considered to be a technological novelty and a comparative rarity, but it has already been appreciated by active mothers, who, while walking with a baby, can simultaneously jog or roller skate.

Even such a simple device as the handle of a pram can be designed wisely. In recent years, those models that can reduce the load on the wrist joint are gaining popularity.

The division into fixed ones, ensuring maximum durability of the connection with the stroller, and loose-leaf, giving the opportunity to redefine each time which way the baby will turn in is a matter of taste of each family. If the mother suspects that there are people who would like to help her in walking the baby, but they may be uncomfortable because of the difference in height, then it is necessary to choose a pen that is adjustable in height.

The baby, in addition to the stroller, still needs a whole bunch of different accessories, even for a walk, so many manufacturers logically assumed that parents would gladly buy everything they needed with the kit. It is also profitable for consumers: firstly, the wholesale purchase is somewhat cheaper, and secondly, accessories purchased in the form of a set must be combined with each other and suit each other.

At the same time, some parents refuse additional expenses for a fully equipped stroller, considering that some of the accessories in the kit will not be needed. This is a common mistake - absolutely all supplements will be useful, especially since in the future the necessary component may be discontinued.

At the same time, the choice of each individual type of wheelchair implies its own highly specialized criteria, which could be the subject of a separate article.

Some parents do not at all strive to perfectly understand all this variety of characteristics, preferring to simply trust the proven manufacturer. Indeed, it’s not for nothing that some companies are considered top companies all over the world and collect thousands of positive reviews from all over the world, while others remain a little-known brand even in the country of origin. Again, it is not enough to choose a company that produces popular, the most beautiful strollers on all sides - it is necessary to focus strictly on the needs of your child, selecting even the most appropriate model, but not any.

It is worth noting that no rating is everlasting - new items released every year constantly make adjustments to the balance of power in the market. Our review of manufacturers, of course, is also not comprehensive - we just try to talk about which firms, both new and experienced, are in demand. In this case, we will try to avoid comparisons, because, as already mentioned, each has his own.

FD-Design is one of the most popular brands in the domestic market. If you ask consumers to describe the strollers of this brand in one word, they will almost certainly say "quality". Given the German roots of this manufacturer, it is not surprising that the product is of quality - in Germany, they simply do not know how to do badly. At the same time, quite democratic prices for brand products are surprising - for example, the hit stroller “Avito” in the summer of 2018 costs only 12-15 thousand rubles.

Marimex is a relatively young Polish company, which, nevertheless, has already managed to conquer the mass Russian consumer. The point here is that Poland, entering the European Union, is obliged to monitor the highest level of quality of all its products, while the local standard of living allows employers to save on wages, making their products cheaper. Marimex is far from the only Polish brand popular in our country, however it is indicative.

Corol is an indicative Chinese brand, the main customer base of which can be called those who sincerely do not understand how you can pay thousands of rubles for a wheelchair, not to mention tens of thousands. The walking "S-1" from this company is worth some 1.9-2 thousand rubles, and this is not a joke even in 2018. Of course, one should not be surprised if the quality of such a product suddenly falls short of the highest expectations, but if parents are basically ready for the fact that the replacement of the wheelchair is inevitable with time, then why not try it.

Glory is another similar Chinese brand, which in our country is not so successful because of its quality, as due to its amazingly low prices. True, in this regard, it is still not a competitor to the above described company, because the flagship model “Glory 1008” costs almost 3,000 rubles, however, judging by the reviews, the strength and durability of such children's transport is much higher.

Mobility is the brand that makes you say that such a huge country as China cannot produce only consumer goods of dubious quality. There are also worthy firms that, having gained experience from the world's best manufacturers, are trying to organize the release of goods in accordance with certain standards.This affects not only the quality, but also the price - for example, the One P5870 model costs 8-9 thousand rubles, which is quite expensive for a Chinese carriage.

However, reviews indicate that such a purchase is still very profitable, because in quality it is comparable to Western competitors, whose prices are recorded in five-digit numbers. In short, this is a good solution for those parents who want the best for their children, but cannot afford to waste money.

Sweet Baby is an example of how Chinese goods can be expensive. It’s no joke: the “Combina Tutto” model costs about 14-15 thousand rubles, that is, eight times more expensive than some analogs from the same country! However, the name of the model suggests that this brand is not entirely Chinese, since it is very likely that quality control is carried out by Italians.

Inglesina - a brand more famous than all of the above, taken together. The history of this Italian company has several decades of fruitful work, the results of which the company began to learn on all continents of the globe. In wheelchairs, the company combines both the obligatory quality for Europe and the typically Italian style that can turn everyone’s head.

The only thing that Italian carriages are criticized for is their inability to harsh northern climate - there is no harsh winter in Italy, because children's transport from there can be safely attributed to summer or demi-season. But the cost, as for Europe, is pleasantly surprising - the Espresso All Over pleasure will cost only 13-15 thousand rubles.

Aprica is a Japanese brand of children's goods, which, not even being close to Europe, guarantees a quality not lower than. It is not a secret that Japanese goods traditionally compete with European and American goods not at a price, but precisely in quality, but in the case of Russia, logistics also plays a very important role.

Japan, located next to Vladivostok, is far more active in the Far Eastern markets than Europe, and its goods are much cheaper because of its neighborly location. Therefore, instead of world-renowned brands, you can choose, for example, the model “Magical Air Plus” for 17-19 thousand rubles.

Everflo is one of the most vivid examples of how initially a western (in this case, Canadian) company eventually moved all its production to China. The result is whether the Chinese stroller with Canadian quality, or the Canadian stroller at Chinese prices, but the parents end up being so pleased that they are massively buying up the brand’s products, at least in our country.

“Easy guard E-338” - a stylish walking model that will cost a family budget of 9-11 thousand rubles is probably one of the most popular wheelchairs in your city.

Peg Perego is the manufacturer, without which no rating of baby carriages can be imagined. This company, without any exaggeration, can be considered a real legislator in the production of children's transport, since it has been selling stylish and high-quality products all over the world for more than half a century.

The fact that our rating did not start at all with this Italian brand happened only because the pricing policy of the company rather painfully hits many of our compatriots, most of whom prefer to choose an inexpensive Chinese equivalent. If we put aside the cost criterion, then usually all ratings start with Peg Perego.

Capella is an unusual example of the fact that the migration of a company in order to find cheap labor is possible even across Asia. If we talk about the company as a whole, it is considered to be South Korean, but its carriages magically turn out to be Chinese anyway. However, South Korea, like Japan, is famous for the high quality of its products, and the control, apparently, even in Chinese factories is organized by all the rules - if there are complaints about the products, there are very few of them.

Finally, you need to give a few tips on how to choose the right stroller that can last for a long time without unnecessary frustration.

First of all, you need to decide on what kind of stroller and for what needs is required. Having come to the store, the client will probably face the fact that the consultants will describe each model to him in the best tones, focusing mainly on the pros. The result will be that each stroller is worthy to buy it, but the whole range will simply confuse parents, and in the end they will buy what they have got instead of a really suitable model.

It turns out that even before going to the store or choosing a particular model, you need to learn how to navigate the subject of wheelchairs, and only then move on to the actual choice.

By the way, you can buy a wheelchair much cheaper online, however, it is unacceptable to choose a model in the same place, relying only on photos and reviews of other supposedly customers on the same site. The seller is always interested in selling his product, so he is unlikely to point out any flaws, even if he is well aware of them. On the contrary, he will use the fact that a potential buyer does not see the goods to hide its disadvantages.

Therefore, choosing a model in the network, do not be lazy to find it in the "real" store and conduct all the necessary tests there. If you are satisfied, you can buy it online, but you must make sure you live up to your expectations.

Finally, practice shows that it is better to choose several, albeit inexpensive, but narrowly focused models than one universal. It almost never happens that the baby grows up, all infancy travels on only one stroller - they replace each other as the surrounding conditions change, the baby grows and just for wear.
