The stroller should be as comfortable as possible so that the baby's walk is comfortable. In addition, the stroller must also be reliably protected so that the child can enjoy the walk even in bad weather. A model with a large hood is perfect for this. How to choose the right option for a stroller?
Benefits and features of the hood
Every year, well-known global brands release more and more new models of strollers, pleasantly surprising young parents. Making a new design that would please parents and be comfortable for a child is the main task of modern manufacturers. Recently, more and more often you can find models not with a simple visor, but with a large and deep hood.
The main advantage of such models is that thanks to the large hood the baby will be reliably protected from bad weather. An ordinary visor is not able to protect the child from the sun, wind, rain or snow. And the hood will save you from all this and even from prying eyes. As a rule, these hoods are also different.
There are options when this part goes down straight to the bumper, allowing you to completely cover the child. With a deep hood, no matter what the weather is outside the window, the walk will still be comfortable.
In addition, the hood can be folded down easily when needed and is almost invisible. For convenience and safety, many models are equipped with transparent windows and mosquito nets, so that the baby will be as comfortable as possible, and the parents will be able to watch the baby. These windows can be easily opened using buttons or a zipper, which allows the stroller to be ventilated, allowing the baby to breathe fresh air.
Such a visor, despite its impressive volumes, does not interfere at all when folding the stroller. Moreover, it comes in a wide variety of options: from traditional book strollers to walking sticks.
