It does not matter at all in which family the baby is supposed to be born, what views on upbringing his parents adhere to, what kind of country will be the birthplace of the baby. The first vehicles will help to surf its expanses - a variety of strollers. Firms are fighting for the attention of parents, providing models for every taste and budget, taking into account fashion trends, he alth characteristics of babies, their build and gender.

Baby strollers: types, advantages and disadvantages

Perhaps, it is simply impossible to describe all types in one article, because manufacturers of children's goods every season create completely new, unique strollers. Firms that are in the greatest demand try to diversify their assortment as much as possible, however, all their products can be divided into several subspecies. So, what kind of strollers are there?

Transformers. They have a powerful body, a strong frame, one set includesa cradle, and a walking block in which the baby will sit when he grows up. Some models are also equipped with a car seat, which helps save money and time for parents. The main disadvantages of transformers are their decent size and weight, as well as the inability to compactly place such a stroller in a house or apartment.

Strollers are less bulky, lightweight, fold quickly and take up little space, but they are much lower and not as roomy as convertibles.

Strollers-canes are very light, compact devices that can even fit in a closet, but it is forbidden to load it with purchases. The flimsy frame is not designed for extra weight and may be a bit cramped for a large child.

The best stroller brands are Chicco, Graco, ABC, Happy Baby, Anex, Peg Perego, Jetem. Each of them has its pros and cons, and even the same manufacturer can have very successful models or with their own nuances.

Top Sellers

The baby stroller brands most in demand by parents are not always the best brands on the market. Unfortunately, the highest quality models have a corresponding cost, which is beyond the reach of the average citizen of our country.

Among the obvious favorites are representatives of low-cost manufacturers, mainly Chinese and Eastern European firms. There are plenty of strollers of such brands as Adamex, Geoby, Graco, Seca in children's stores, in addition to their bright design, they differa wide variety of models. Such nuances as price, functionality and purpose must be taken into account in advance, and choose a stroller, carefully weighing all its pros and cons.

Among the more expensive, but, nevertheless, affordable options, of course, are European brands. England (Happy Baby, Britax, Maclaren), Germany (TFK, Teutonia, FD-Design, Concord), Norway (Stokke, Noordi, Esperro). They make high quality strollers. The companies on this list offer classic 4-wheel carrycots and newer models with 3-wheel swivel, convertibles, lightweight strollers and summer canes. In addition, European manufacturers produce very good strollers for twins, triplets and weather.

Cheap doesn't mean bad

It is generally accepted that the miser pays twice, and in this saying, no doubt, there is some truth and justice. But still, in cramped circumstances, it is not always worth passing by inexpensive strollers.

Most often, among the budget options are domestic brands, Chinese or from neighboring countries. Some of them deserve a positive assessment, despite the rather ridiculous price. For example, baby carriage firms from Poland make very good models, oriented not only to their own domestic market, but also to the whole of Europe. Strollers Bebetto, Smile Line, Aneco, Tako, X-Lander have passed many successful tests on the most desperate off-road and are very popular and respected by mothers.

No, no and no again

Of course, readers want to know which strollers they should pass by and not even think about purchasing them, but such advice cannot be fair and completely reliable. A lot depends on how the stroller is used, on which roads the mother takes the baby, whether the housekeeping department is heavily overloaded.

To avoid mistakes and dissatisfaction, you should pay attention to the following points:

1. Weight. A light stroller is good, it is easier to move around, climb curbs or ramps, but heavier ones are more stable.
2. Dimensions. The stroller should fit in the car, the elevator and not occupy the entire space of the hallway, you need to understand in advance that the walking block, car seat and cradle that come with the transformer should fit somewhere.

• Maneuverability. Swivel wheels are a great feature, but sometimes they need to be fixed, the presence of a flip handle is very important, because turning the baby around with the whole block is difficult and mom alone will not be able to handle it.

• The equipment should be as complete as possible, the standard is a bag, a raincoat, a net, a cape on the legs, some manufacturers also offer strollers with a clutch, hanging shelves and cup holders, which greatly simplify the walk.

Wow

And finally, the five most expensive and unusual children's "carts".

Fendi Aprica costs $30,000. Fendi strollers are not allowedcall it comfortable, their fur upholstery and luxurious design are beautiful but not very practical.

Silver Cross stroller is much cheaper - 12 thousand dollars. For this cost, the buyer will receive gilding, natural leather and ermine fur as decoration.

A miracle from the German manufacturer Hesba is the Corrado model for 6 thousand "green", it is comfortable, natural finishing materials and quite good equipment.

In the penultimate place is the American The Roddler, whose parts are made to order, and its customers are included in the "white list" of the manufacturer's regular customers. This product bears little resemblance to the strollers familiar to everyone, has a bright and futuristic design.

The last one is also a US $3,500 stroller called the Orbit Baby System.
