I was completely torn on if I should purchase this stroller or not. The overall star rating seemed great but being the cautious online buyer that I am I always check out the bad reviews first to get a feel for worst case scenario. I needed an umbrella stroller for my 14 month old and I am not willing to spend $100 plus on a fancy on that won't get used super often. The biggest issues that I kept seeing were that the stroller is too small and it's so short that it is uncomfortable to push. First I would like to address the "too small" issue, it's an umbrella stroller and they are supposed to be much less bulky than a traditional stroller. It is intended to be used for toddlers and there is plenty of room for a small child to sit and be completely comfortable. I don't know of any umbrella stroller that has the ability to recline but again I wasn't in the market (and have never been) for a fancy umbrella stroller and maybe that is a feature that they offer. So the stroller is just as big as what it is needed for, it fits a toddler just fine, they aren't going to be squished or anything like that. So now that I know my little man is going to be perfectly fine riding around I was worried that being 5'10" myself this was going to cause me to be extremely uncomfortable having to be the one pushing it around. I will simply say that it's not uncomfortable or awkward in anyway. I was honestly a little confused by this because almost every review I read said that they had to hunch over to push with being at my same height and some even shorter. The only way I can figure that this is happening is that they are pushing the stroller at an arms length away and then of course you would be bent over. I personally am very happy with this purchase and think others should be too. The stroller seems to be very durable and is made with quality materials. It looks nice as well. For once I am glad that I ignored the less than great reviews and went ahead and purchased it.
