Tips for choosing
Professionals recommend before purchasing a product to draw careful attention to several points.
- Construction model. It is selected taking into account the family situation, a specific lifestyle. When the family has children of the same age, it is worth buying a Hoco Tandem stroller.
- Convenience. For travel, purchase lightweight, compact products.
- Functionality. It is advisable to choose a multifunctional device, for example, Magic Classic Navy. In order not to injure the baby's spine, the stroller must have a seat with a hard back and a hard bottom.
- Dimensions. Size is also very important; to determine it, you need to know the width of the wheels. Their size should be less than the doorway, only then the structure will enter the elevator.
- Wheel type. The dimensions of the wheels affect the functionality of the product, its maneuverability. When the wheelchair has a small wheel diameter, it is easy to operate. However, it cannot be driven on uneven roads or in winter. For walking in the rain and on bumpy roads, rubber wheels are more suitable. For riding on snow, the stroller must have large diameter plastic wheels. Today, stores offer for sale Hoco strollers equipped with floating wheels. Their rotation angle reaches 180 degrees. This design is easy to operate. It is very important that the model has wheel brakes.
- Frame. Stability depends on it, as well as the reliability of the structure. The frame is made of lightweight material, mainly shock-resistant plastic, sometimes aluminum alloy.
- Shock absorbers. These mechanisms create a smooth running, ensure the stability of the entire structure. Modern systems like Blue Stripes instead of shock absorbers are equipped with plastic hinges, sometimes strong springs.
- Brakes. The system must stop two wheels at the same time, and this option is most often preferred, since it is easy to use. There are other models in which the brake stops each wheel separately. In recent years, a variety of strollers equipped with a top-mounted handbrake have appeared on the market. This design is liked by mothers who lead an active life.
- A pen. If it is securely fixed, the pressure on the hand is significantly reduced. Flip mechanisms make it possible to change direction: the baby can be seated with his face or back to his mother. It is very important that the handle can be adjusted in height. This is true if the parents are very different in height.
- Additional stuff. These accessories include a bag, hood, mosquito net, footrest, basket.
All of these items can be purchased separately, but sometimes they are included in the kit. To ensure a safe ride, it is advisable to have reflective elements.
