What Is a Stroller?

A stroller is a type of travel system for babies and toddlers; they are suitable for little ones from the age of around 6 months old to around 3 or 4 years.

A stroller is your best friend when it comes to travelling with a little one; they are extremely lightweight devices, easy to fold to a small size, making them easy to lift into any vehicle or onto public transport.

Strollers are easily manageable, which makes them an excellent choice for parents.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Stroller

When deciding which stroller to go for, you might want to consider the following factors. Having an idea of the things you want from your stroller can help you when shopping around for your perfect model. This will ensure that you get the most out of your stroller.

Your Baby’s Age

The age of your baby will largely determine which travel device you invest in this time around. As you may or may not know, prams are solely designed for newborn babies. This is due to the fact that they position a baby so they are laid flat.

Before you make a purchase, you want to make sure that the model you are looking at is age appropriate for your little one. It is also worth your while to note how long the stroller will last, as you should aim to get a few years' worth of use out of your stroller before your child outgrows the model that you buy.

Strollers will naturally last longer than a pram due to a pram only being suitable for newborns. You might want to think about how big your baby is and how heavy they are, making sure they have the right weight capacity for the stroller you are about to purchase.

Compact and Travel Friendly

Think about where you will most likely be travelling with your baby. Will you be going by car, train, or bus? Make sure you have measurements of the space available in your car boot so you can check that your stroller will be able to fit into it once it is collapsed down.

The Lejoux Stroller feature a compact design that allows for easy collapse and assembly of your stroller. The collapsed size of our stroller is suitable to fit into the smallest cars and car boots, saving you hassle and stress.

Easy to Use

As a busy parent, you need your stroller to be easy to use, especially when on the go or in busy places. Look for models that give you one-hand collapse, a lightweight model also helps when having to lift your stroller up and down stairs, onto transport, or for storing.

Having a model that is easy to use also makes it a breeze when you are travelling on your own with your baby, without having anyone there to help you.

What Terrain You Will Travel On?

Having a stroller that is capable of taking on the right terrain is important too. If you know you will be going on the beach a lot, or on grass or country walks, you will need a stroller that is capable of handling any of these terrains with ease.

Take note of the stroller's wheels, its suspension, and how well it will be able to travel on uneven, rough, and bumpy ground - all without disturbing your little one, of course, and remaining a comfortable ride. Some strollers may just be designed as city strollers and not suitable for uneven terrain.

If you do plan on travelling on uneven ground often, large wheels help, and decent suspension is advised. This will help to tackle any type of ground while keeping your little one content, happy, or asleep when travelling on uneven surfaces.

Compromise on Your Essential Needs

Once you have considered the factors listed above, you will be more clued up on the needs you will have for your family and child. No one will have the same needs, this is why a stroller is such as personal choice for so many.

Sometimes a stroller with every single feature comes with a hefty price tag, and may not be that lightweight, which can cause complications and hassle when on family trips. Some things have to be compromised in order to create your ideal stroller.

Stroller Accessories

The type of stroller you choose can also depend on the number of stroller accessories that are available to buy and that are compatible with your stroller.

This helps you get the most value out of your stroller and lets you create a personalised stroller experience by tailoring it to your needs.

Some of the stroller accessories that you can buy include the likes of:

• Stroller Umbrella
• Bag clips
• Buggy board
• Storage bags
• Travel bags
• Foot muff
• Hand muff
• Baby cushion
• Rain cover
• Winter cover
• Cover bag
• Carry bag
• Cup holder

Not every family will need every type of stroller accessory. This is why it is a good idea that they come as a separate purchase.
