Strollers

Strollers are, according to Merriam-Webster, “a collapsible carriage designed as a chair in which a small child may be pushed.” To us and millions of parents, strollers are actually so much more than that simple description. Strollers are one of the most defining and important purchases for a family with a new baby—especially if it's your first child. Finding the right stroller for your family is rewarding and can make your life much easier. Conversely, choosing the wrong stroller can lead to a frustrating parenting experience over many, many outings.

How to Choose a Stroller

Perhaps you want the portability and small size of a lightweight stroller or the all-terrain ruggedness of a jogger. If you’re more accustomed to navigating the walkways of a mall, you’ll appreciate the maneuverability, luxury, and roomy storage of our full-size strollers. If you have more than one child, we’ve got you covered with our tandem and double strollers.

Types of Strollers

Umbrella Strollers

Umbrella strollers fold up to resemble an umbrella, making them perfect for small apartments or trunks. They're simple and convenient but usually not suitable for newborns. From around 4-6 months, they are ideal for growing babies and parents who value simplicity.

Lightweight Strollers

Lightweight strollers offer more storage and sturdiness while still being easy to manage. Some work with infant car seats, making them versatile from the newborn stage onward. They are perfect for parents who navigate city streets and small spaces but need more features than an umbrella stroller.

Jogging Strollers

Jogging strollers are designed for active parents who love the outdoors and exercise. With larger wheels and stronger suspension, they handle rugged terrains and offer features like hand-braking systems and sun shields. They excel in outdoor adventures but might not be ideal for crowded areas.

Full-Size Strollers

Full-size strollers are strong, durable, and comfortable with plenty of storage space. They come with features like fully reclining seats, cup holders, and large storage baskets. Though bulkier than other types, they provide a luxurious experience for both parent and child.

All-in-One Travel Systems

A travel system combines an infant car seat with a stroller, making it easy to move a sleeping baby from the car to the stroller without waking them. These systems can be more affordable and convenient, especially for new parents.

Double and Tandem Strollers

Double strollers are side-by-side, while tandem strollers have one seat in front of the other. Tandem strollers are easier to navigate through crowded spaces and fold more compactly. Double strollers, however, offer higher weight limits and are great for twins.

Once You Purchase Your Stroller

After purchasing your stroller, fill out the product registration card and send it back to the manufacturer. This ensures you are informed immediately in case of a product recall.
