Baby Gear Basics: How to Choose a Stroller

November 20th 2009 by Dr.MOZ in New Parents, Strollers

Expecting parents are often shocked to find that your average stroller can cost well over $200. That’s not to say that you’ll actually need an expensive stroller with all the bells and whistles, but you just might be surprised at how many features they have. From bottle holders and built-in

diaper bag systems to adjustable handles (so dad won’t need to hunch over), the only limit is your wallet. Before going to the baby store with credit card in hand, I recommend learning the fundamentals with Joie Tamkin of Baby Earth. She’ll walk you through the basics from “travel systems” to wheel-types, and the info just might save you a little dough when you are ready to buy.

Have a great weekend!

    I love babies! The info and this blog will come in handy when I marry.

    In India, they hardly give attention to the Stroller design and usability.

    When my sister gave birth to her son, she bought a stroller just like what you said that it has a lot of features…
    You don’t have to worry for all your baby’s stuffs of where to put them. It is just right in the stroller.

    I’m actually in the market for a good stroller… I was wondering is having all the bells and whistles really necessary? I guess it’s really good to have a place on your stroller for all of your essential items like diaper bags etc.
