I had quite a number of people asking me for advice on which baby umbrella stroller that I could recommend to them. Now choosing a stroller can be a bit mind-boggling since we have such an amazing variety of baby strollers that are currently available in the market. In fact when we search online, we could hardly even decide on which is suitable as they come in all shapes, designs and features! Where do we even start?
Stroller Height
Stroller Umbrella
First of all, there are two groups of people whom we need to consider when choosing the right umbrella stroller. The first would be those of average height. The second group would be the tall people. It appears to be easier for people with average height to find a stroller easily. But to look for a tall umbrella stroller for tall people could be a bit tricky as most strollers are likely to promote their features as being able to cater to the tall people.
In fact a tall umbrella stroller may not even be completely suitable for tall people if the height of the baby stroller is not adjustable. So one of the things to look out for when it comes to comfort for tall parents is to make sure that the height of the baby stroller is adjustable to your height. I have tall parents who complained of having experienced back pain and backache just because they bought a baby stroller that was not suited for their height. So while your baby could be very comfortable in the stroller, the poor tall parents unfortunately will be most uncomfortable after prolonged use of the stroller.
Budget
Secondly, budget comes into play. Always buy what you can afford or have already budgeted. No point overspending on an umbrella stroller if it does not fit your height and your budget.
Stroller Features
Thirdly, based on your budget, decide on what type of stroller features that you could do or do without. These days baby strollers come with so many features that it will literally turn into an adventure to pack and take the baby out for a stroll! Make sure that the stroller is a reclining umbrella stroller for the comfort of your baby.
Try It Out Personally
Fourthly, you must try out the stroller to get the feel of it. Do not just rely on pictures that you see on the internet or in advertisements. This is vital especially for tall parents. So shopping for a stroller for tall parents could be quite exciting as they have to make sure the stroller fits their height comfortably.
I had earlier recommended two baby umbrella strollers that are value for money and big on features and environmentally friendly. Lastly, bear in mind that the stroller is for both you and your baby's convenience. Getting a suitable one is always a good investment.
