Reviews
Most owners of Joovy strollers agree that the company keeps its word and provides excellent reliability, acceptable safety and sufficient comfort for both children and parents. Separately, the compactness of the folded strollers and their relatively low weight for such a carrying capacity are noted. Some reviewers note that the actual weight of the stroller with the installed accessories may exceed that indicated in the description.
Variations of Caboose have earned special recognition from weather parents, as they greatly facilitate walks. At the same time, some owners of these strollers note their unsuitability for Russian winters - poor permeability on snow and poor insulation. Sometimes there are complaints about the maneuverability of these wheelchairs when overcoming obstacles.
The Balloon model has positive reviews on average. Most owners note the compactness and lightness of this model, the ergonomics of the design and the convenience of accessories. Weak depreciation sometimes causes complaints. But for the Groove model, almost all reviewers do not highlight any significant shortcomings.
