UPDATE: This stroller is DANGEROUS. Caused an ER visit!
Final UPDATE: THIS STROLLER IS DANGEROUS. My review has gone from a 5-star review to a 1 star as today my son tipped over in the stroller and cracked his head on concrete causing a laceration and a trip to the ER via fire truck. While there is a manufacturers warning to “never leave children unattended in this stroller,” I think the reality of never being able to leave a single hand off the stroller is a little extreme and unsafe. My son weighs 32 lbs (apparently there’s a 45/50lb weight limit and Ive seen reviewers say they use it for even bigger kids regularly) and as he has gotten bigger the stroller has become far more unstable and top-heavy under his weight. It has been tipping over more and more lately. I think the weight limit is wrong and there should be more weight in the bottom bars or a tip guard of some kind to catch on the sides and back of the stroller. I will be reporting the injury to CPSC. We really loved this product until it began to become unsafe and unsteady. And thank goodness that this was all that happened even though it shouldn’t have happened at all. Sometimes parents need to turn around and pick something up or tend to another child. It is unrealistic to manufacture a product where a parent cannot just sit or stand next to their child without the product tipping over, causing injury to their child. My recommendation would be to carefully weigh the risks and situation before purchasing this stroller. Scroll for 6 month update! This is an incredible stroller with ZERO bells or whistles - so if you’re looking for a small footprint for zipping about and the occasional need for a stroller, this is your best buy. Pros: - The one-handed maneuverability is 100% accurate...and I’ve purchased a LOT of strollers that claim to be that over the years. None have ever actually been that. - Turns on a dime. - Takes bumps easily. - Is comfortable for the child. - Easily the narrowest stroller - we live in a busy downtown area with narrow old shops and I used to solely wear my child in a baby carrier because of the layout, but I don’t have to anymore! - Gives the child a full view all around. - Child sits higher than the average stroller. - Easily pulls up to a table (and the footprint of most chairs!) so no more questionable public high chairs! -OPENS with one hand. - easily carried (while folded up) under one arm - could be secured additionally with an elastic strap or bungee cord as needed. - requires minimal trunk space - seriously the smallest folding stroller. Fits under my back seat! - has a space underneath where a small canvas bag can be placed and secured with a carabiner or bungee cord for those odd picnic lunches. Cons: - I’m not sure ANYONE could get it collapsed with just one hand - and I’m a really dexterous person. But it’s not that big of a con IMO - that being said I’m not a first time parent but I could see a first time parent really needing that option for the stress-free aspect. It’s not rocket science though, just a little frustrating til you get the hang of it. Additional Comments: - I’m not really sure if this would work for itty bitty babies - although I did see another reviewer claim their small infant did great in it. The five point harness is VERY secure so I suppose if you added additional head support, it might work. - I would absolutely NOT recommend hanging shopping bags, diaper bags, or anything substantial off of the handle, but jackets do hang well from the handle in a pinch. -the wobble when a child is not in it might be concerning but once the child is in it this dissipates. It needs to wiggle a little bit for the mechanics of the zero-turn. I tried tipping it over (on the carpet) both with and without my child in it. At all times I felt like my child was secure riding in it. - I love that he can either sit up or lay back as he chooses to engage! Overall, if you’re planning on carrying a bunch of stuff with you on your day trip - this is NOT the stroller for you. If you’re looking for a stroller to use quickly or on occasion and like to pack light - then this one is totally worth your money and more! 6 months update: It’s been six months with this stroller and I have a couple of updates. We still really love this stroller, although I have to say there is NO WAY I will ever be able to fold it with one hand because of the tightness of the folding mechanism. But that’s not a deal breaker - I just put my son in the car first. The only con I have is that today my son (who is now beyond 2 30lbs) leaned over to touch something and the whole thing toppled over. This is the 2nd time it’s happened. It becomes top heavy with a larger squirming child in it so you can’t leave them unattended - I literally turned for two seconds to answer a question and - BOOM. Luckily he didn’t hit his head. But you have to keep a hand or foot on it at all times since it’s so light. We still love it but I do wish maybe the wheels or base weighed a little bit more. Also, my 6 yr old has been able to ride standing on the front occasionally going up a hill and it has still maneuvered great. And we did purchase the separate canopy when it came back in stock and I HIGHLY recommend it. I love how it adjusts up and down and can be used optionally!
