Neighborhood Walks


For around the neighborhood, most parents are looking for smooth ride (bigger tires) and mom-friendly features like adjustable handlebar, seat and great handling. Neighborhood stroller use is great for the European style Pram or bassinet attachments. They allow new babies to sleep comfortably while on your walk. These strollers also have car seat adaptors for when you are going from car to stroller

The Mod Mama pick in this category:

Quinny Buzz

Gorgeous pram attachment makes this stroller perfect for newborn through toddler (seat attachment is standard). Cool hydraulic opening mechanism makes it as high tech as it is mod.

Eating Out


Going out on the town with your little one? There is really only one stroller on the market that transforms seamlessly to a high chair for your child. The Stokke Xplory has an adjustable seat height and the ability for the child to sit upright, right at table height.

Stokke Xplory

Higher is better is the Xplory motto. Being up with adults keeps baby engaged and involved in what's going on.

Transitioning to and from the car


The most important thing here is to pick a stroller with a car seat adaptor. Easy folding mechanism and lightweight construction are also nice features to look for if you have to pack it in your car frequently. Depending on your car, you may want to look for a compact fold as well.

Our pick?

UPPAbaby Vista

Great compact fold - easy on/off reversible seat and car seat adaptors available. Great handling.

Jogging and Off-Road


Except for the travel strollers like the Zapp and G-Lite, any of our strollers can handle off-roading with ease. For a durable jogger too - try a Phil and Ted's or Bumbleride. Both are built to last and are nicely designed.

Bumbleride Indie

Nice recline features, included footmuff and large sun canopy make this a great choice for the chic but sporty!

Traveling


For planes and trains, look for a small folding, portable stroller with a travel bag (to avoid broken strollers in transit). The Quinny Zapp actually fits in the overhead compartment of a plane!

Quinny Zapp

Super tiny folding, lightweight and comes with its own travel bag - what more can we say?
