Graco DuoGlider Classic Connect Stroller - Review

Great value tandem stroller

Graco DuoGlider Classic Double stroller
" the DuoGlider Classic double stroller offers great value for money "
The DuoGlider Classic double stroller from Graco is a brilliant choice for growing families.

The Connect stroller features Stadium seating, the rear seat is slightly higher than the front which enables unobstructed views for both children.

The single handed fold is a blessing when trying to fold your stroller and still keep control of two young children. The stroller folds into a stable upright position making handling much easier.

Considering the larger size of a double stroller this is a very lightweight and maneuverable stroller.
The construction of the stroller feels sturdy and the fabrics feel durable and should stand up well to general wear and tear.

Some assembly is required to setup the stroller, assembly is straight forward and you should be up and running in well under an hour.

The seating is comfortable and both seats recline, the rear seat can be fully reclined which is great for short naps at the park.

The independent sun canopies offer very good protection from the elements and both seats feature foot rests and trays.

Storage is also well catered for, with an extremely large basket under the seats and a handy parents tray for smaller items.

It is very easy to see why this is one of the best selling double strollers on the market.
Light and easy to maneuver with ample storage, the DuoGlider Classic double stroller is also easy to fold and offers great value for money.
Key Features
  • One handed folding capability.
  • Double stroller able to hold two 40 pound children.
  • Flat reclining rear seat.
  • Can be used with upto two Graco Classic Connect car seats.
  • Stadium seating design enables both children to have unobstructed views.
  • Large storage basket and parent tray storage.

Ingenuity ConvertMe 2-Seat Swing - Review

Baby Swing and Vibrating Seat in One

Portable Ingenuity ConvertMe Swing-2-Seat
" Whisperquiet technology means that this is one of the quietest baby swings "
This is a fully featured baby swing which also has the added benefit of being easily converted to a simple vibrating seat.

A 5-point safety harness keeps your baby safe in the swing and the easylock system converts to the vibrating seats quickly.

Five gentle swing speeds can be selected along with a useful timer setting, you can select the swing to work for 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
In operation the Ingenuity ConvertMe Swing-2-Seat Swing is very quiet due to the Whisperquiet technology.

There are eight melodies along with three nature songs to keep your baby entertained plus there is a toy bar and plush toy.
The toy bar can be pivoted out of the way and extra toys can be attached.

Batteries are the only means of powering the swing, although it does use some clever technology to make the batteries last longer.

Storing and transporting the swing is very simple and the swing is very compact. The seat pad and cushions are machine washable which is always a plus.

This is a well built compact baby swing that also doubles up as a vibrating seat, very quiet and with a useful automatic swing timer. The only down side is that it is powered by batteries only, although the Hybridrive technology should help with battery life.
Key Features
  • Toy bar and plush toy.
  • Easy fit 5-point safety harness.
  • WhisperQuiet in operation.
  • 2 in 1 - baby swing and vibrating seat.
  • Battery operated.
  • Automatic timer settings.

3D Lite Convenience Stroller - Review

Summer Infant Lightweight Stroller

Summer Infant 2015 Stroller
" This stroller can be reclined to an almost flat position, great for sleeping or nappy changes"
Available in 5 funky and bright colors plus the restrained black version the 3D lite is a stylish lightweight stroller.

Weighing in at under 12lbs its also very lightweight and the handy carry strap means it can be folded and hung over the shoulder if needed.

Folding the stroller is relatively easy but it does take two hands to do it and is perhaps not as easy as on the comparable Kolcraft Cloud Plus Lightweight Stroller.

Where the 3D lite stroller does excell is with the seating.The seat is taller and wider than most lightweight strollers and has a weight limit of 50lbs, making it perfect for larger children who may only need it occasionally.

The seat can also be reclined to an almost flat position, this is ideal for a quick sleep or even diaper changing.

An adjustable and easy to use 5 point harness will keep your child comfortable and safe.

Storage is about average for these types of stroller, the rear storage is great for keys and such like but access to the storage basket is limited when the seat is fully reclined.
Although there is a useful cup holder there are no parent or baby trays, many parents find the baby trays an unnecessary addition to the stroller.

Rear wheels can be locked and the front wheels can also be locked in a forward position for travel over difficult surfaces. As with most lightweight strollers the 3d Lite Convenience stroller is best on smooth surfaces.

An excellent stroller that has some stiff competition in the Kolcraft Cloud Plus Stroller, where this does score highly is with the great reclining angles and the extra large seating and weight limit.
Key Features
  • Removable canopy that can be extended and removed.
  • 50 lbs weight limit.
  • Larger size seating for larger children.
  • Under seat storage area.
  • 5 point safety harness for safety.
  • Weighs only 12lbs.
  • Compact fold with handy carry handle.
