Tako strollers: characteristics of models and subtleties of choice

A huge number of unique designer strollers are produced under the popular Tako brand. Parents prefer Tako strollers because of their comfort, budget cost and versatility.

About company

More than twenty-five countries recognize the popularity of children's products made in Poland. The Tako brand has been at the forefront of its segment in the international market for almost twenty years. High-quality, practical, stylish, versatile and at the same time inexpensive products - these are the main components of great success.

On the official website of the company you can find a large assortment of strollers for children of different configurations and functionality.

The wide variety of models presented is due to the manufacturer's desire to meet all the requirements necessary for comfortable walks for children. Each stroller is practical, adapted to urban road conditions, has good cross-country ability and maneuverability, which makes any walk easy and comfortable.

One important advantage of Tako's designs is the versatility of the models, regardless of weather conditions. The climate, change of winter-summer weather conditions, high humidity and frequent temperature drops will not affect the operation of wheelchairs.

Large and small wholesale purchases of Tako products for the Russian market are actively developed. Tako models can be purchased both in online stores and in popular retail chains of children's goods. An excellent ratio of low price and good quality makes the company's products one of the most popular.

The variety of colors and styles satisfies the preferences of the most fastidious parent.

The great popularity has become the reason for the appearance on the Russian market of fake Tako strollers, which do not correspond to the strength and quality declared by the company. The Tako company constantly emphasizes the expediency of purchasing Polish goods from sellers who have a certificate confirming the authenticity of the goods.

Kinds

The Tako company in Russia offers several types of children's transport.

Modular

Modular strollers have a rather young look. They appeared on the children's market relatively recently. This version of children's transport has interchangeable, non-transformable blocks that are installed on one platform. Usually, modular units are represented by a car seat, a stroller unit and a cradle. In such models, you can transport both newborns and older children.

The modular carrycot is equipped with a frame and a solid bottom. The inside of the carrycot is lined with warm cotton, which makes it extremely comfortable. Thanks to the rigid frame, the child is in the correct physiological position. The carrycot usually has a plastic hand for carrying the baby.

It is very easy to turn the cradle into a walking one. To do this, you just need to install the walking block, represented by a removable seat, on the platform. The back of the chair can be adjusted, if necessary, it is lowered to a completely lying position.

Very often, although not all modular strollers have a car seat. It can be installed both on the chassis and in the car. The modular baby transport chassis has four or three wheels. For improved flotation and maneuverability, the front wheels are made smaller in size.

The lack of damping on the chassis with small wheels makes it difficult to walk on rough roads. Only the front wheels of modular strollers have a swivel function. The most popular modular models from Tako Megaline, Alive, Laret, Moonlight and Lungo meet all the criteria for modular baby transport.

Classic

Classic models are used for babies who can only lie down. This traditional option is in great demand, despite the wide range of modern children's transport, because the classics will never lose their relevance.

These strollers are designed for babies up to 8 months... This type of transport is considered classic due to the invariability of the chassis type and the shape of the cradle. The standard classic carrycot can weigh up to 25 kg, which greatly exceeds the weight of many modern analogues.

The classic model has four identical large wheels. Inflatable wheels with metal spokes are commonly found. None of the wheel pairs have a pivoting function. These wheels provide reliability and excellent flotation on the worst road. In all weather conditions, steering the stroller will not be difficult. And also inflatable wheels soften the course of children's transport.

The chassis of classic strollers is equipped with modern shock absorbers. For this, not springs are used, but special belts and springs, which increase the maneuverability of the model. Often, the chassis is complemented by nets in which you can transport food or other things.

The carrycot is placed at a high distance from the ground for easy control of the stroller and the possibility of parental supervision of the child.

For classic models, you can purchase an additional seat unit. You should ask the seller about this in advance.

Walking

Stroller models are similar to modular strollers with a stroller unit. But their main feature is lightness and compactness. This type of transport can be easily folded to a very small size. It is convenient to store it and take it on long journeys.

One of the most popular among modern parents is the Tako V-Road stroller.

Twin systems

Twin strollers are available in two variations. There are strollers where children sit side by side. This type of stroller has a handle that changes position. In another version, the children sit one after the other. The plug-in units can be converted from a lying position to a sitting position. The handle cannot be turned over here.

According to other criteria, such systems are no different from modular transport.

How to choose the right one?

When choosing a stroller, you should adhere to the following recommendations:

  • decide on a model - think about how often you travel, how often and when child transport will be used, lifestyle and family circumstances - these are the main criteria for choosing a model;

  • study the design of the cradle or seat back, they must necessarily have a solid base;

  • measure the width of the stroller across the wheels and all doorways and lifts through which you will have to pass, think about whether the folded stroller will fit in the trunk;

  • pay attention to the wheels - small wheels are easy to operate, but have poor passability, but large wheels are perfect for bad roads and weather, swivel wheels are a definite plus, but they must be equipped with a lock;

  • the frame or chassis must be made of strong and lightweight material;
  • shock absorbers affect the smoothness and stability of children's transport, their presence in the stroller is mandatory;

  • the presence of the braking function will greatly facilitate the walk for mom - there are brakes that block two wheels at once or each wheel separately, in some models you can find a hand brake, the choice of the type of brake system should be made based on personal preferences;

  • find out which handle in the selected model, fixed or reversible, the handle should be adjusted to the height of the wheelchair operator;
  • purchase original additional accessories, think in advance what you may need.

Review of strollers and reviews on them

Jumper X 2 in 1

The Jumper X 2-in-1 transformable stroller surprises with its design and characteristics. She is recognized as one of the most durable. The Tako Jumper X's astounding durability comes from the sturdy aluminum frame that underlies the design.

The stroller is equipped with two blocks: a cradle and a walking block. They can be easily installed forward or backward, which will be very convenient for parents. They will be able to change the position of the child depending on personal desires and the weather.

The handle has an ergonomic shape. With its help, you can easily transfer the folded stroller. The backrest and headrest in the carrycot can be tilted, which will undoubtedly be comfortable for the child while walking.

The Tako Jumper X chair is covered with a large, voluminous hood that will easily hide your baby from bad weather conditions. The set also includes a raincoat and a children's insulated foot cover. The wheels of the stroller are inflatable and large in size, which allows the Tako Jumper X to cope with the worst roads. The front wheels turn to improve vehicle maneuverability.

The chassis width of 60 cm allows you to go through any doorways.

Reviews on the Internet about the stroller Tako Jumper X are very good. Users note that the model is very durable, that several children in a row roll back in it. At the same time, functionality and appearance do not deteriorate in any way.

According to parents, the stroller is very heavy... If you live in an apartment on a high floor and without an elevator, the heavy weight of children's transport becomes a real problem. Some reviews point out that the stroller is cramped for large children.

Most of the Tako Jumper's shortcomings appear in winter: the front wheels are clogged with snow and skid very much on a snowy road. There are slight difficulties in getting to the basket, especially with a walking block.

Megaline

Tako Megaline is another versatile modular model for children from birth to 4 years old... The breathable carrycot with a double hood has a flat and hard bottom, which is equipped with ventilation holes. You can close them if you wish.

The bottom can be fixed in the desired position. The walking area is multifunctional, safe and comfortable.

The security system is adjustable for the child. The chassis is designed to make the wheelchair easy to operate. The model is formed according to the "book" principle.

When folded, it fits easily into a car trunk.

The variety of colors for the main blocks and chassis will satisfy even the most sophisticated wishes.

By the way, 80% of users of Tako Megaline strollers recommend this model. Positive reviews about this children's transport overwhelm the global network.

The stroller is perfect for "winter" children. It has excellent snow permeability and is very warm.

The parents consider the only drawback a small and uncomfortable trunk. And also periodically there is dissatisfaction with the large weight and cumbersome transport. There are no complaints about the rest of the criteria.

Natalia 3 in 1

The Tako Natalia 3-in-1 stroller has a wear-resistant and waterproof coating. Inside, a cotton hypoallergenic coating is used. The Tako Natalia has shock absorption on all four wheels that do not turn, which increases the comfort of the model even on the most rough terrain.

On the hood of the stroller you can find a large pocket in which you can fit a lot. The model comes with a large bag equipped with strong rivets and straps that will last for a long time.

Tako Natalia weighs no more than 19 kg... The stroller does not need specialized care. All fabric elements are removable. They can even be washed in a washing machine. The model has been specially designed to reduce child motion sickness.

According to many reviews, the stroller initially seems very heavy and uncomfortable. There are problems with inflating the wheels, since the nipple in the wheels is very small.

The design is considered to be made for centuries. And no one doubts the strength and reliability of the model. Reviews confirm that the stroller is very large, both unfolded and folded. It does not fit into a standard car trunk.

A large number of accessories included in the kit, users consider a big plus. But the durability of additional things is not very good. For example, a raincoat wears out very quickly. The main disadvantages noted are very large dimensions and the impossibility of removing the main unit. Despite all the disadvantages, the stroller is considered very functional and is called a large all-terrain vehicle.
