Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Let me lead off by saying that as a guy, I was fairly unhappy with some of the strollers that my wife loves (we have 3, a Britax B-ready, Britax b-agile and a little umbrella stroller) as our son grew older. I found that as our son reached the 2 year mark (he is 2 1/2 has I write this review), the Britax strollers were so big, that we rarely used them. They are great strollers that generally sat in the garage or the back of the SUV while we carried my son or let him walk and held his hand on 90% of the things we did. As far as the little umbrella stroller, if she would let me I would break that thing over my knee and put it in the trash. After using it for 10 minutes, my back hurts from hunching over to reach the handles and I'm at my breaking point because my feet kick the back of it when I walk. Enter this little jewel. This things collapses so small I can put it in the back of my Jeep Wrangler (2 door) no problem. I am just over 6 feet tall and the handles come up to a perfect height and a good distance from the back of the stroller, so I don't have to hunch over and my fee don't kick the back while walking. And despite the great height/distance ration, it folds down so small, its practically magic. You do need two hands to unfold it, but, like I said, I'm not holding a 3 month old baby, I just sit my 2 year old down, unfold it and tell him to jump in. Its not like you have to lay him on the ground. He climbs right in, he loves it! In fact, when the box arrived from Amazon, my wife and I were wondering what it was, we never imagined this could fit in a box so small. We pulled it out, popped on the wheels and I was pushing my son around in about 10 minutes. We have only had it for a few weeks, but we already use it all the time, (and one of the Britax is already in the attic). By the way, another reason I chose this is because you can buy adapters so that Britax car seats can clip in (but realize that with a child small enough that you need to move them from car to stroller in a car seat the 2 hand requirement might not be optimal). To sum it up, I know for certain if you are a guy or woman, you will appreciate the unpacked size vs folded compactness of this stroller. Save the luxury Britax type strollers for the all day events at a amusement park or the zoo, but this one, you will use day-to-day and week after week.
