Review 1 for The First Years - The First Years Stroller, Red and Black

Worth the price!

Buy it! You won't regret it. I was trying to decide to get this one or the Mcclaren and I am glad I decided on this one because it is way more affordable and it gets the job done with some added perks.
We love the height of the stroller. My husband is 6foot and he does not hunch over when pushing it. We also love the small storage underneath. We usually only stuff it with some blankets and other odd and ends. We can't fit our backpack in it..but that is okay with us.
At first I didn't like the shade hood because everytime I closed up the stroller it would bend the shade hood and it gave it a kink that was awful. However, I just recently realized (duh) that I put the shade hood too high on the stroller. We moved it down (like the picture shows) and it's perfect! No more kink in the shade hood.
For the price, you have nothing to lose. IF you hate it, then get the mcclaren. We've been using our for a year now mostly and disney and around the mall and it gets the job done.

Review 2 for The First Years - The First Years Stroller, Red and Black

Great compact light weight stroller

I almost didn't buy this stroller because of the reviews I read, but glad I did! We were going to Disney and needed a small compact stroller that folded easy and was light weight. Well this one meant all of the above. I liked that it had a shade and also storage underneath. Hard to find that in an umbrella stroller. I bought this stroller and the one that was one step above. Kept this one took other one back ( it was heavier and not as compact). I never had a problem steering or pushing, it drove wonderfully!! I don't know what the others were talking about when they said it didn't steer well. I would definitely recommend this stroller!!!!

This stroller is very light weight. It has a strong seating area. I am alittle doubtful of the duribility of the wheels. They look cheap. I have only had this for 2 wks...so I'm not sure how sturdy it will be.

Review 5 for The First Years - The First Years Stroller, Red and Black

Good lightweight stroller

I needed a lightweight stroller that was easy to open and fold up that didn't take up much room in my car's trunk. I didn't want just a basic umbrella stroller and this one has extra stuff like a canopy, though it's a little small, and some storage room at the top and a small storage area at the bottom. It also has a 5 point harness, which I reallly like. My toddler seems comfortable in it and likes the foot rest. This stroller is lightweight, easy to open and close, and takes up a lot less room than our big bulky stroller that came in a travel system. I'm giving it 4 stars because my husband accidentally kept kicking the back wheels while pushing it and the placement of the handles is a little short for him but I haven't had any issues with it. I didn't like that the all black version was $10 more and that I had to order it online instead of getting it at the store. I would definitely recommend this stroller. It's a good value for the price.

I like that this stroller is taller than most lightweight strollers. No more bending over to reach the handles! It folds nice and easy and unfolds just as smoothly. Nice storage area underneath the seat and adequate area on handles for drinks and other small items. Overall, pleased with this stroller. Like the high weight limit on it as well.

Nice, compact stroller for a small car.

I have a small car and the other stroller I have folds up so large it takes the entire trunk which is fine if we don't have anything else to bring anywhere, but we have a few longer trips coming up in the near future where we need to bring a pack-n-play and a suitcase. This stroller folds up just a hair larger than an umbrella stroller and is very sturdy. We have used it on a few day trips already and really like how stable it is for longer trips (I don't feel that confident with an umbrella stroller) where there will be a lot of walking!

Really good stroller for the price. Very durable, which we need since my husband thinks off roading with the baby is a must. The one thing that wasn't what I expected was the reclining doesn't recline as far as I thought, it only leans back so the babies head doesn't slump forward in his sleep.

I really like the color, size & how light it is. Wish the fold bars were not so close to storage basket. Tight squeze putting small baby bag underneath. Interesting recline option. Guess you can't be too picky about it since it is a lightweight stroller. It does the job & that's what really matters. My son seemed quite comfy in it. Excellent for short errands.

Not only do I love it , my two year old loves it too. It's taller than a normal umbrella stroller making it comfortable to push. I can fit a snack cup sippy cup and a bottle of water up top as well as my keys and wallet. Bottom basket is small but I didn't buy it for the basket. I just wish I had bought it sooner! But it should last until she's 4 so I'm happy :)

Used it for the airport and quick trips into places. It has held up good so far (except the handle tore a little during our flight under the plane) I actually ordered another one I liked it so much. It's a great bang for the buck :)

Convenient

I got this stroller because it's quick and easy. I also liked the sun shade. I had a regular stroller where the car seat attaches to it but it took up so much room in my trunk. I think this stroller is nice but have some small issues. One review said a 6 ft dad didn't have issues kicking the back. I find this as a problem and I am 5'10". I also do not like the storage underneath because it's VERY hard to get too! One of the reviews said it lays down two inches. When I got it, it was already exteneded to the "lay down" position and I didn't know it and was trying to make it go lower. So it doesn't lay down really at all. For the money it was okay and does it's purpose for in and out of the car for quick errands.

This was a gift for my grandson and his wife, who have told me they love the stroller. Perfect for them to go for a walk around the block, or take the baby (4 months old) to the mall. It is very attractive.

I'm 6'2" tall so I needed a stroller that wouldn't have my slouched over to push it. This stroller is tall enough for someone like me and light weight as well for traveling. I can open it up with just one hand while holding my toddler in the other! The under storage is a waste of time since u can't quite fit nothing underneath since its fixed in its position and the seat is too low to push anything between. Other than that one complaint I live this stroller!

This is a decent little stroller for the money. I like that you can move the sunshield. The drink holder is sturdier than it looks. Another reviewer says that it doesn't lean back far and I have to agree. I wish they hadn't fixed the material to the bar the way they did. I believe my son would have his head flop forward if he fell asleep. Just wanted this for Disney when it is too much walking for a 4 year old and he could doze off. At his height though, 42 inches tall, the top of the stroller hits the middle of his head, and it's uncomfortable. I'm fearing I'll need to spend some $$$ for the next one1
