Stroller and accessories reviews

I really have fallen for Micralite. I know they are not the tiniest folded, but to me this is not the most vital aspect. But I do need a lightweight all-terrain capable stroller for my toddler. Because I was a bit unsure whether I wanted to get myself a Micralite SmartFold or FastFold I just had to test out FastFold as well.  Some technical data: Weight: 7.5 kg Footprint: 44 x 66 cm Seat back height: 52 cm (official measurement is 51 cm) Seat + footrest 29 cm Folded dimensions: 104 x 40 x 44 cm (measured myself) Suitable age: 6 months to about 100 cm Carrying capacity: 22 kg Carrying capacity of the shopping basket: 3 kg So, FastFold is the lightest stroller Micralite makes. The seat is like a hammock, which does not really remind me of any other stroller I´ve seen. There is no metal connections between the seat and frame, so the child will feel no shaking even at the roughest terrain. Most of the stroller is very similar to Smartfold. You can see my review...

Micralite SmartFold was a really positive surprise for me. I was a little sceptical at first due to its UFO-like apparance, but it has honestly become one of my favorites. I will explain why in the following chapters. Some technical data: Use: from 6 months, with carrycot from birth Carrying capacity of the seat: 22 kg Carrying capacity of the shopping basket: 3 kg Weight: 9.5 kg Seat back height 50 cm (+ basically 6-7 cm more room canopy) Seat depth 21 cm, width at the inside of the seat 20 cm, width at the knees 34 cm Footrest length 23.5 cm + 6.5 cm until the end of the plastic edge Folded dimensions: 104 x 44 x 44 cm Stroller width at the back wheels: 44 cm Stroller width at the front wheels (i.e maximum width): 59 cm Minimum footprint 68 x 59 cm, maximum footprint require when seat is in recline and handle bar folded outwards 115 x 59 cm. The function demonstration can be found here . The seat is an ergonomic seat, with adjustable calf-rest / foot-rest, the can...

I had a good opportunity to try out another three-wheeler: Britax B-motion 3 Plus. Its the "Plus" that makes it better from the regular B-motion 3. I must say that I am not aware of all the differences between the two models, but I know that the materials in the canopy have changed and the canopy no longer has a mesh extension, which is a significant improvement. Britax isn´t hugely popular in Estonia, the same cannot be said by Sweden and Finland, where Britax Smile 2 is considered one of the best choices when price is concerned. Britax B-Motion 3 Plus is definitely more of a city stroller, but it can handle a little bumpier roads too. But "handle" the maximum term I would use. I would not take it on hiking trails and enjoy myself probably. The stroller can only be used forward-facing, it has a full recline (with a rope system) and you can regulate the foot-rest. The canopy is long enough, reminds me a bit of Bumbleride Indie even, simply by length. But aft...
