The variety of baby strollers in stores is not only pleasing, but it makes some problems. It is difficult to choose the best one. That is so, especially for women who have become mothers for the first time, because they do not know what to consider while choosing such an important thing. Moreover, baby strollers are also very expensive, so there is no right to make a mistake.
- Firstly, you do not need to choose only by appearance: by the color of the car or the jacket of the child. Look at the main functions: size, weight, convenience, additional options, and then at the beauty of the product.
- Secondly, the baby stroller is chosen for geographical reasons. If you walk strictly on asphalt, the choice is not limited. And if the area with bad roads, ascents and descents, sands, then the model range will be decreased.
- Moreover, do not forget about the climate. If your home is located in a cold and rainy area, then you should pay attention to the coating.
While using the tips from our article, you can choose a baby stroller in any special store, but we are not looking for easy ways and we will try to pick up all the same, but on Aliexpress.
Cradle
That is the analogue of the high Soviet baby strollers with a completely straight bottom and large wheels. Modern cradles look stylish, but this does not eliminate its disadvantages: large dimensions, weight and poor maneuverability. So, it can be difficult to cross the road. But it is very convenient for a newborn baby. Due to the flat bottom, it provides a perfect position for the baby. Modern cradles are very warm, as much as possible closed from wind, snow and rain. However, such models can be used for a short period of time. As soon as the child grows up and it becomes interesting to sit and look around, the baby cradle will not be needed.
Unfortunately, at the moment, all strollers from this category have disappeared on Aliexpress. As they appear, we will supplement this selection.
Walking Stick
That is the most lightweight baby stroller with small wheels. It is convenient due to its low weight. You can take it on a trip, easily place it in the trunk and lift it up the stairs. However, it does not overcome obstacles well due to the small wheels.
Transformer Stroller
It is the most popular type of baby strollers on the Russian market. Some models are equipped with a cradle, a traditional seat, and a removable car seat. This is a "cradle" and a "cane" in the same baby stroller. Perhaps it is the most economical option, as it is suitable for children up to 3 years. But, like any universal thing, it has drawbacks too. As a baby stroller, the "transformer" is heavy and hot, and as a cradle, it is not insulated enough. But there are premium models too, which are more expensive. They are perfect.
Among other criteria, it is important that:
- the baby stroller is not too large and, if it is necessary, fits freely in the trunk of the car;
- the wheels are rubberized, medium-sized, because they get a smooth ride and good maneuverability;
- the front wheels are pivoting;
- the frame is steel, this is the most durable option;
- the brakes on the front and rear wheels are reliable;
- the kit included a bag for mother, pockets, a raincoat and a mosquito net;
- the upholstery of the stroller is not draughty, removable and easy to wash.
