Helping You Keep Money In Your Pocket!

My youngest is 2 years old and I still need to put her in a stroller from time to time.  Taking the two of them in a clothing store isn’t easy with them both running around.  Besides I like having a basket to put my purse in and also a cup holder.   The only thing is I don’t want to use the big stroller anymore, you know the one that came with the travel system?  It takes up way too much room in the car and it is just too big and bulky.

I decided I needed something more compact.

I was given the opportunity to receive the Deluxe Luce Travel Stroller from One Step Ahead for review and I was very happy because it looked like exactly what I needed.

When the stroller arrived I was very happy to see how light weight it was and it was definitely more compact than my bigger stroller.  Not as small as an umbrella stroller, but still pretty compact.

Here are some things I liked about it:

• The basket underneath was a good size.  I can fit my purse with no problem (I don’t carry a small purse) and even toss in a few bags while I’m shopping. It’s deep which I really like.
• It folded up so easily with the buttons right on the top.  It has a little latch to keep it closed.  I haven’t had any problems with it opening on it’s own.
• There are 2 cup holders on top along with a place to keep my keys and/or cell phone.  I used a few different size bottles/cups and they all fit fine.
• There is a removable snack try that goes on and off very easy with the push of a button.  I like having the option of removing it completely when I don’t need it, especially for quick in and out like when we are at the zoo.
• The seat material cleans very easily!  I found that out accidentally and was amazed at how easily I was able to clean it with just a baby wipe.
• It has shoulder and waste straps that you can use together or you can just use the waste straps.  Originally I used only the waste straps but then my 2 year old decided to try and stand up so I needed to add the shoulder straps.   They are completely adjustable for whatever size your child is.
• It rides so easily.  The wheels don’t get stuck, they don’t turn on their own, it flows nicely especially when I’m using one hand to open the door and push her in at the same time.  Nice smooth ride.

As you can see I really do enjoy a lot about this stroller.  However that being said there was 1 thing I didn’t like, but it’s not enough to keep me from using it.  The nylon material makes it very easy for my daughter to slide down depending on what she’s wearing.  For a smaller child that can’t hold themselves up well or that don’t reach the foot holder,  I think that would be tough.

I think this stroller would be best used for toddlers or preschoolers.  My preschooler also uses it from time to time.  My two girls take turns riding and walking when we we are at the zoo or a fair.  My toddler loves it too and I already promised to pass it along to a friend for her youngest once we don’t need it any longer.
