Mutsy Evo Review


Down in Palisades Park, with the Mutsy Evo


 It was a beautiful, sunny day in Palisades Park. The sea looked like sparkling sapphires. 
 
  It was a blue as brilliant as the New Mutsy Evo! It's been tweaked a bit, to conform with us safety standards. And of course, it is still as fabulous as ever! 
 

Take a look, as Christine and I demonstrate the fold and features.

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.

Teutonia T-Linx review

T-Linx and Legos and Library
 
  One of my goals for the summer is to walk (with a stroller of course!) everywhere. Or to as many places as possible. Another is to have the kids read more books. Guess I'm not alone in that.
It's been fun combining the two, with frequent strolls to the library.
And our first candidate for library stroller is--the new Teutonia T-Linx! 
It's a fun stroller to push. Nimble and narrow. Quite important on trash pick-up day.
Can we make it? It's gonna' be tight.
 Uh-oh.
Sorry flowers! But, the 23" width squeaked us through!
And here we are! My, oh my, there are a LOT of books to choose from!
What to choose, what to choose....
Maybe I will get down and check it out.  
 But wait, books aren't the only thing in a library. There's Legos, whoo hoo! Lots and lots of Legos! 
 And it's a good thing my T-Linx has such a small footprint, because  it is crowded in here! 
The springy suspension on the wheels helps maneuver around blocks.
 There's a T-logo on the canopy, and a zippered pouch behind the seat.
 The seat has a deep recline, napper bar, and is quite comfortable for SP 2.0.
 The design is quite stylish, although the basket is kinda' small.
 But with so many fun things to do at the library, we will be back soon.

 So we'll only check out a few books at a time.

 There are some familiar Teutonia touches, like the net back on the canopy.
 But in other ways, this Rubbermaid Teut has been clearly designed for the American market. There are numbered levers and instructions drawn right on the chassis, to remind you how to do everything. 
Here is how you fold it:
 
 Easy as 1-2-3.

 
 But it will only fold in two pieces.
 And here is how you reverse the handle:
  
But, you now have the larger, fixed wheels in front. Which means you are steering in rear wheel drive.
I wish the library instructions were as clear. Because tonight it is closed. The T-Linx, with it's reflective piping, is a good choice for twilight walks.
At least, we have the return bin outside.
Now stretch....

Almost.....

Rats! 

Try again...


Alright!!
Well done!
