So why am I showing this man with a stroller in striped pajamas? Well, he is clad in the p.j.'s, but the stroller is wearing something equally as colorful.

Good News for the Mutsy Evo!

After flaw is fixed, the Mutsy Evo stroller passes our tests

Consumer Reports has removed its "Don't Buy: Safety Risk" designation from a stroller it tested last year after finding that a newer model did not pose the same safety risks.

How to clean your stroller, and it's easy!

SQ Tip:  Cleaning your stroller, as promised! 

 First of all, don't be intimidated. In a previous tip, I mentioned the importance of preventative maintenance. What that means is, don't let it get to the point where you want to throw your hands up and scream. Because then that can feel overwhelming. Nevertheless, you have to start from where you are. And if where you are is a big mess, so be it.

Cybex Twinyx Double Stroller Review


Every year, as the weather warms up,  I start getting asked the same question over and over... "StrollerQueen, what is a good double stroller for travel?" Here's a new one to try..brought to us by our good friends at Regal Lager and Cybex..the Twinyx! It's basically a double version of the popular Onyx umbrella stroller. My friend Emily and I had a lot of fun playing with it at the park, with our children, of course! She really liked the push, the seat size,the handle height, and that it took up so little room in her car. I liked the silky smooth fabrics that are easy to wash, the sharp look, the easy harness adjustments, and the canopies that slide up or down, for taller or smaller children. Go Regal Lager! Go CYBEX!



Cybex Twinyx Double Stroller
Weight: 29 lbs
Folded: 16.5"W x 38.5"L x 15"H

Peg Perego Book Plus Stroller Review

Birthday Book Plus



  Have you ever noticed what happens when you marry two great ideas into one, like peanut butter and chocolate, a forward and reversible seat stroller, St. Patricks' Day and Easter? The result can be stupendous, as you are about to see. 
 
This story is about the latter two, not the former, although I do really like Reese's cups. Combining St. Patrick's Day and Easter together this year was happenstance; they just came too close together. Combining a forward and reversible seat stroller into one was Peg Perego's brainchild--which resulted in this lovely Book Plus. And like the merger of all strong unions, the offspring is a force to be reckoned with.

Stroller Lights


Here's a SQ tip for strolling at dusk...get a stroller that has reflective piping. That was DD's fussy time, and a walk in the cool air would calm her down. We called it "The Witching Hour." But there were a few times in crosswalks we almost bought the farm. I shudder to remember. They didn't have many strollers with the reflective strips then. But some people used reflective tape, or even hooked up tiny, twinkly, battery operated lights.

StrollerQueen Tip: Keeping your stroller clean


Hi Strollerland! Due to popular demand, I have been posting a series of StrollerQueen Tips on FaceBook. In case you missed the there, I am also posting them here. But if you do like them, could you pop over there and hit the Like button? Thank you!
Today's SQ tip is on clean strollers....well I guess it's two separate posts--one on keeping a stroller clean, and another on cleaning it if you don't, lol! Now it's not that hard to clean a stroller, and if you are using it every day, you are going to have to. But you can lessen the time between washings if you take a few preventative measures.

Aston Martin Stroller





Recently a reporter asked me what I thought about the new, three-thousand dollar Astin-Martin stroller. Which is only generating such a buzz BECAUSE it's 3-grand. Here was my response, and it is certainly like nothing you will read anywhere else.
