{I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Mom Central for GB. I received a gift card to purchase a GB ZuZu stroller to facilitate my review as well as thank me for my participation. Nice, huh?}
As a mom to two, soon to be three (Woot! Woot!), I know my way around a stroller. In regards to stroller ownership, I think I’m kind of like Goldilocks. Nothing’s been ‘just right.’
We’ve done the whole Infant Stroller Travel Set – the one that comes with the infant car seat, the base, the stroller that fits the car seat, and then the stroller is used solo afterwards. Sure, it works and it’s all inclusive, but when you’re using the stroller with the infant seat, it’s bulky, and when you’re using just the stroller it’s bulky. The components all make sense, it’s just heavy and awkward.
We’ve done the umbrella stroller – sure they are light weight, but many are flimsy. And not to mention it’s one more thing you have to buy that only gets used for awhile.
We’ve done the “snap ‘n go” style stroller – this one is super-practical. But only so long as you are using the infant car seat, or until your baby decides he wants to look at the world instead of at you. (Yeah, that happens.) Another thing to buy with a short life span.
We’ve also done the BOB strollers – both the single and the double. And while I definitely consider the BOB a must-have for a parent that runs with their child(ren), it is not a practical every day option. They only fit some infant car seats (with a pricey adapter), and they are super bulky and heavy to get in and out of a car. Plus, they take up your whole trunk.
Which leads me to my newest find… the GB ZuZu stroller. Available at Babies ‘R Us, I’m so excited about it, and think it’s a great stroller for every new parent because:
It works as a “umbrella” type stroller, but also as an infant car seat carrier. Meaning, it is really lightweight and is compact when folded, but also easily converts to a infant car seat carrier, with one simple adjustment. It fits most Graco and Chicco brands. It’s sturdy, easy to use, reasonably priced, and has good storage – which is essential for new moms. Plus, I think it looks pretty snazzy, too. 🙂
I love that this stroller will have longevity, and will enable me to get rid of several other strollers taking up space in the garage. With baby #3, I’m ready to purge!
This guy just can’t stay out of a photo session! 🙂 Guess he likes the GB ZuZu stroller!
