How to Choose a Stroller

By eHow Parenting Editor

Rate: (4 Ratings)

A stroller will be one of your most-used items, so buy the best quality you can afford or request one as a shower gift. Most parents use it several times a day, loading it in and out of the car, cruising with baby from the zoo to the mall. Most manufacturers offer a variety of styles, from standard to travel to jogging; comparison shop in Baby Bargains and talk to other parents about their recommendations.

Tips & Warnings

  • Save your back by buying a stroller with wheels that navigate easily and handlebars that fit properly. Buy a handlebar extension if necessary.
  • Ask if you can test drive the stroller, with child inside, to see how the stroller handles the reality factor.
  • Think about what makes the most sense for your lifestyle. Active? A jogging stroller or one that converts to a backpack may be just the ticket.
  • The Internet is a great place to find discounts on strollers. Find deals on strollers and other child necessities at Deals.com.
