Baby Trend Strollers Guide
Here are 5 great reasons why one of the Baby Trend strollers could, and maybe it should, make the choice for your next buy. |  Practical! "We use this car seat carrier with our Graco Snugride infant carrier. When I see my cousin lugging her huge "SUV" stroller into her actual SUV, I know we made the right choice! The Snap-n-Go if very lightweight, folds up easily, and has held up nicely to a fair amount of abuse. And because it's so small, going out in crowded places isn't as daunting as it might be with a larger stroller.
I have noticed that the ride isn't as smooth as it was five months ago when the baby was born, but it's still OK. There is a good amount of space in the basket but I sometimes have trouble squeezing the diaper bag through the opening in front (and there isn't an opening in the back, which seems like the more logical place for it.)
Overall, though, it serves its purpose well." | -
Most of them are very light. The lightness makes it carry around and easy to travel with. This portability is further enhanced by the fact that it is highly foldable, folding into a one hand fold. -
The Baby Trend strollers are safe. And it comes with a number of attractive safety features, These include its 5 point harness arrangement, which is meant to keep the baby securely strapped during the jog. The harness arrangement is designed such that the baby is securely strapped, yet has reasonable ‘breathing space’. Another safety feature is its braking system. -

The Baby Trend strollers are easy to maneuver Great Baby Trend Strollers |  Very happy with this one! "I have a 23 month old and a 6 week old and initially thought the Joovy Caboose would be the stroller for us. Thank goodness we had the opportunity to try one out before we bought it! With the Joovy, if you have an infant carrier in the front seat, there is no room at all for the older child to sit on the jump seat. Also, for some strange reason, the jump seat slides back and forth which seems very unsafe. So if you have an infant in a carrier and your older child wants to sit, the older child is out of luck. What's the point of that?
With this stroller, the older child has 3 options - sit in the back seat, sit on the jump seat or stand on the platform. The back seat can be removed fairly easily and stored in the basket underneath and my little girl (who is tall for her age) has plenty of room. She sometimes dangles her feet over the foot rest but this is not an issue. Our infant carrier easily slides into the front seat and is secured with a belt.
This stroller opens and closes easily and is very easy to control as it steers beautifully - it's not nearly as long as I thought it would be but both children have plenty of room. Since it has the footprint of a single stroller, it fits through doors and entranceways with no problem. It is a little heavy when folded but I don't think I would find a stroller with these features that's not. The basket is nearly impossible to get to but I can live with it. Overall, I'm thrilled with this purchase and every single time I use it, someone stops me to ask about it. One woman even said, "That's the most practical double stroller I've ever seen." I have to agree." |
|  Ideal stroller for infant and an active toddler! "I cannot say enough positive things about my Sit 'n Stand LX Stroller by Baby Trend. I had a 2 year 5 month old toddler when my new baby was born. I knew I needed a stroller to accommodate both of them, because many times my toddler gets tired when we are out walking. However, my toddler also is rather independent and was beginning to really balk when put in his regular stroller. So when I saw this stroller that gave the toddler an option of sitting or standing, I knew I needed to give this a try.
I have now used the stroller for 3 months and could not have been happier with it. My toddler loves to be able to either sit or stand in the stroller. Many times we just allow him to walk with us and then when he gets tired, he climbs into the stroller himself and either sits or stands on it and we keep going. He also feels like a "big boy" because he is not sitting on a regular looking stroller seat.
Meanwhile the front seat accommodates my newborn infant's Graco Snugride car seat perfectly.
This stroller is heavier than a regular stroller, but still folds compactly enough to fit in the trunk of my Saturn SL2 small car, but it does take up most of the trunk. It is tougher to maneuver than a regular stroller because it is longer, but I expected that. I think they made it as easy to maneuver as they could and still accommodate 2 children.
Another feature that this stroller has that didn't show up clearly on the online descriptions I read is that there is a seat belt to secure the toddler on the bench seat. This his handy when I take him into stores where I don't want him to climb off. I use the seatbelt sparingly, so that he doesn't mind it. There is also a safety belt that keeps the toddler from falling off backwards when standing, but I have not used it. I go slow enough that falling off while standing is not an issue.
I read other reviews criticizing the fact that the toddler seat did not have a back and the toddler could not sleep in the stroller. If your toddler isn't balking at a regular stroller and frequently sleeps in the stroller, then this stroller IS NOT for you. Just get a double tandem stroller. However, if you have an active toddler who no longer likes a regular stroller, then this one is for you!
Also, others criticized the sun visor. Yes, it is small, but with this design of stroller, I cannot see how they could have made it much larger. And yes, the storage basket under the front seat is difficult to get to and mostly not usable.
But I am thrilled to find something that my active toddler would use and can overlook these shortcomings that I mentioned. This stroller gives me the confidence to go on outings with both children without my husband!" |
