About

Who am I and why did I start this site?
I am a 32 year old with many professions, amongst them being a mom. I am environmentally concious (comes with my official profession too) and I try to take it into account whenever I can. I was going through a rough patch after having my daughter but did not quite "qualify" to be diagnosed with PPD, but thankfully I found some comfort in reading, learning and testing out different strollers. I am doing a lot better now, but strollers are still in my mind and heart.

My moto is that everyone should have the perfect stroller that suits their needs and there should not be a market for low quality products that do not last, are dangerous, hazardous or inconvenient to use. Nobody should feel that their daily life is limited by the fact that their stroller is too big, too heavy or too bulky when folded, has wheels that don´t suit the terrain the stroller is mostly used in and feel uncomfortable for whatever reason when getting out and about with their little one. For young parents getting out an about can be really big help of coping with parenthood.

Now I help people choose perfect strollers for them. At this stage this is mostly voluntary work and a hobby. This site is for posting my reviews also in English. The sister site in my native language, Estonian, is located here, there I also post other parenting related topics. Strollerfinder is solely for stroller related reviews. If you wish me to test out a stroller or accessories, you can contact me via instagram.

If you have comments or questions about my reviews, strollers or other related products, feel free to ask in English, Estonian, Finnish or Swedish (basically I understand Norwegian and a little Danish and German too, though the answer will probably be either in English or in Swedish then).

Review: Bumbleride indie 2018 and differences from 2017 version

My love for stroller began about a year and half ago, when I found myself thinking, while taking my 7 month old daughter to a stroll for her nap, that perhaps the reason for not loving those walks as much as I should, was the stroller. I found it hard to push, the canopy was not long enough and I felt it limited where I could go. I had bought, about a year before, Mutsy Igo (2016). And don´t get me wrong, it is a perfectly ok stroller, but just not for my needs. The reason I had bought it, was that it was the most different I could find from the classical Emmaljunga that is almost repulsively popular in Estonia. Mutsy Igo was minimalistic, seemed to be compact and light. Boy, had I little information. This post is not meant as a negative review about Mutsy Igo, but rather to praise the stroller that I found after it. I found Bumbleride Indie. I found it after months of searching through all the sporty and all-terrain strollers I knew and ordered it off the internet like a pig in a bag ...

Review and comparison: Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle vs Bumbleride Indie

Mountain Buggy   is not a new stroller brand for me. Last winter in Tallinn, I used Mountain Buggy Swift, quite successfully. I hope to get around to doing a small review on that too soon. Anyways, today I had a good opportunity to compare side by side Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle (UJ from here on) and Bumbleride Indie (Indie from here on). Both are three-wheelers, sporty, not not quite meant for running or rollerblading because they don't have the appropriate hand-break. They are mainly built for forward-facing use. UJ has the possibility of converting the carrycot into a parent facing seat (up to 15 kg), but in my opinion the solution isn't ideal due to very open seat and short canopy. But overall this review is from the viewpoint of using it with a toddler. I did a review on Bumbleride Indie before, you can read it here . Some technical data on UJ: Carrying capacity 25 kg (officially only 9 kg is allowed in full recline, though in my experience nothing has happened...

Review: Thule Sleek

I waited quite a while that some new interesting stroller came along that was really something exiting. There a couple more on the horizon right now ( Micralite !), but the first to arrive was Thule Sleek. I have been following its arrival since the first sneak-peeks and was very eager to try it. I've had positive experiences with Thule before ( Thule Urban Glide 2 , I've been meaning to getting around to post about it as well). What I am really happy about is that Thule understands that strollers are used by a little bit older kids as well. My 2 year old does not use the stroller on a daily basis anymore (daycare + sometimes with bad weather she sleeps indoors), but because she isn't much of a hold-hand type and runs off a lot, strollers are still essential to us.  Believe it or not, this was the first time I tried a stroller with an ergonomic seat. Plus it had been a while since I tried using a stroller with parent-facing seat. I was curious to see what my daught...
