It took me about two months to find the "perfect" stroller for Quentin. But I finally decided on one, and I couldn't be happier. It is called the Zooper Twist. It has pretty much everything I wanted. I've had friends ask about it, so I thought I'd post about it on our blog.
I wanted a lightweight stroller, that was good quality and versatile. I didn't want to end up with 3 or 4 different strollers to fit all my needs. I'm not a runner, so I didn't care about jogging capabilities. Just something that was easy to push and turn. It had to have tall handles, and a big (I mean HUGE) canopy. Reclines all the way down and sits up all the way. Has a belly bar, that is removable when the baby gets older. Has a good height and weight capacity. And folds compactly. The Zooper fit the bill, and then some!
My only complaint, and it is a small one, is that even though the fold is compact, it is still pretty long. It will fit in our Toyota Matrix without a problem, because of the trunk space. But in our SUV, if the third row seat is up with the stroller in the back, it doesn't leave much room for groceries, etc. Unless you want to put them on top of the stroller, which I don't like doing. That is the only drawback, in my eyes. And it wasn't something that I felt was a deal breaker, we just need a new SUV. lol
Quentin really loves riding in his new stroller.
The stroller also has a nice sized basket at the bottom (a big sized diaper bag might have trouble fitting in it though), plus two large pockets at the back to hold essentials. It has a 5 point harness safety belt. It has a cup holder. The canopy has built in UV protection and is water proof. It can hold an infant carrier. The leg rest is also adjustable. It comes with an UV netting that goes around the front of the stroller if you are out in the sun a long time. And a foot muff attachment, for when it is really cold outside.
Anyway, I can't say enough good things about the stroller. It is fabulous! Zooper has other models besides the Twist as well. You can check them out here.
By the way, the toy Quentin is chomping on is called Chan Pie Gnon, by Vulli. The makers of Sophie the Giraffe. It is a teething toy, and Quentin adores it. It is his little friend. It works like nothing else has, for his tender gums. Plus he loves to shake it to hear the squeaking noise it makes.
