critierias of what makes a great stroller. Read on to see why this stroller will suit your lifestyle and see Travel convenience: The Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller (29 lbs) is a version of the Bugaboo Cameleon (20 lbs) and the Quinny Buzz Three Wheel Stroller (26.4 lbs) but a lot less in price.

Safety: All the strollers reviewed on www.strollerlife.com have a 5-point height adjustable harness - the safest harness any stroller can have! And with two 8" front swivel wheels and 12" rear never-flat wheels means you won't need to inflate the wheels or get stranded with a flat wheel. Although the Quinny Buzz Three Wheel Stroller rear wheels are of high-quality, you still have to inflate them yourselves intially and check them periodically to make sure they are not flat. But one thing to note is when wheels are air-filled they actually give the stroller a smoother ride over rocks and unpaved roads, so think about where you will be taking your stroller mostly. The Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller is the only Contours Strollers with a 5-point harness that has reflective trim for safety and padded sleeves for comfort. The reflective trim helps cars see you and your baby better at night (for extra safety wear a jacket that has reflective accents as well). Contours Strollers are

The 4 wheel drive (24" wide) is more stable compared to the Contours Options 3 Wheeler Stroller (26" wide) with only 3 wheels, and in width wise it is just an inch extra compared to the Bugaboo Cameleon (23" wide). With a small stroller and great wheels you can go to the grocery store without having to worry being in the way of other people and turn into aisles easily! Although there are no suspension on the stroller's wheels, the unique floating seat has been designed with suspension to give your baby a comfortable ride. Note the front wheel does not lock so it's not a jogging stroller like the BOB Jogging Stroller, it's made to go indoors like a shopping mall or outdoors like a paved road.
Durability: Although the stroller is made of hard plastic, parents who have purchased the Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller find it very sturdy. It's not made to go on a dirt trail or be in perfect shape if you throw it down the stairs. But if you use it frequently on paved roads or indoors it will last you for years to come - provided you make an effort to keep it in good shape. The best material for a stroller is the aeronautical-quality aluminum frame for Maclaren Strollers, but for a fraction of the price the Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller does not come with an aluminum frame otherwise the price would be doubled if not more. What parents will love: Parents are always happy when they find something that really works for them and the price is just right under their budget. The stroller looks great, has lots of functions and has a great price to it - that is a great value product right there! None of the other strollers that we review here even comes with a cup holder except for Contours Strollers. Other expensive strollers like the Bugaboo have available cup holders that are purchased separately! A few things parents would appreciate is a stroller that is easy to clean and have lots of space below to store your things. The fabric of the stroller is constructed of a wind resistant and easy wipe high density nylon blend, it's brushed treatment adds softness while still being durable. As for the basket underneath the stroller (10 lbs capacity) has lots of room to place your baby's essentials plus shopping storage you will need when you take it out to run errands. Parents love to take their babies out to wherever they go really and it's great to know that there is an option to have them facing you or the world. When babies are asleep parents like to see how they are constantly doing, but when they are wide awake and ready to see what's going on just place the seat forward for them to get a panoramic view of the world. As a safety precaution only use the reclined position until child can sit up unassisted. If you would like to use the Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller for your newborn baby just place your car seat on the stroller, the infant car seat attachment fits most car seat brands on the market. Accommodates the following infant car seats: Baby Trend Flex-Loc & Latch-Loc • Britax Handle with Care • Chicco Key Fit • Combi Connection &Tyro •Cosco Arriva, Designer 22 • First Ride DX, Turn-A-Bout • Eddie Bauer Opus 35 • Evenflo Cozy Carry, Discovery, Embrace, Portabout™ • Graco Safe Seat & Snug Ride Series • Peg Pérego PrimoViaggio • Safety 1st Designer 22 & Starter Series
The Unique Floating Seat has been designed with suspension to give baby a comfortable ride Seat reclines in both directions for infant's comfort
Infant car seat attachment fits most car seat brands on the market What your baby will love: Babies are all about comfort and Contours is a brand recognized to place that as a top priority for their products. The removable infant head rest is made with soft micro fleece fabric protects the baby's head and the sunrider canopy adjusts in all directions to block the sun (harmful UV rays). The belly bar is easily removed for easy access to your baby, but when you do use it rest assure that it is well padded for your baby's comfort. And whether your baby is facing you or the world, seat fully reclines when your baby feels like they want to take a nap. Another reason your baby will have a very comfortable ride is the unique floating seat which has been designed with suspension to give your baby a comfortable ride. The suspension allows your stroller to stay balanced if you go over uneven roads, thus giving your baby a smooth ride. And when the sun is out, to protect your baby from harmful UV rays the sunrider canopy adjusts in all directions to block the sun. It adjusts for you so you don't have to. So your baby will be a happy one when they are comfortable in their seat enjoying the smooth ride in the cool shade. Speaking of a happy baby, the snack tray has a cup holder for your infant as well. Not only is there a cup holder for the parent, there is also one for your baby so you both can enjoy a drink together.
What we don't love so much: Everything about this stroller has been great so far, the only complaint that parents have is that the Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller is hard to close and is bulky when it is closed up. Part of what makes a great stroller is the it's maneuverability and it's convenience when putting it away. Out of the two the Contours Options 4 Wheeler Stroller has got one right, which is a great stroller to take around the city but it is not the sleekest stroller to close. The main reason why that is so is because the stroller is made of hard plastic and not of an aluminum frame, but that is also why this stroller is a fraction of the price. Another complaint that parents have is although the stroller has a reversible seat the problem is that they have to take the seat out and turn it around to make it reversible instead of just having a reversible handlebar. And again, for the fraction of the price there are some sacrifices. To have it all you can purchase a Bugaboo for a much higher price, but since the latest fad is to save some money with how the economy is going Contours strollers will definitely save you money and deliver basic functions and more.
