Carriage Strollers
A carriage is like a bed on wheels, most useful for young babies who cannot sit up yet. Most have reversible handles so you can convert them to strollers for older children. These tend to be heavy and come with a big price tag, however; in general they are extremely durable. Just keep in mind, your baby is worth the quality.
Described below are three carriage/strollers recommended by the Best Baby Products staff.
Peg Perego Culla Carriage Stroller
Plus: Rubber wheels, large sun canopy and basket, beautiful looking
The stroller itself is beautiful, comes with a bassinet and stroller seat, and a huge basket. The canopy completely protects the baby from the sun. Don't buy it if you are looking for a compact, lightweight stroller. The wheels fold, but the stroller attachment doesn't, so it basically stays in my garage for strolls around the neighborhood and to the beach.
Peg Perego Navetta Carriage Stroller
Plus: High quality, comfortable to carry and for the baby, quiet hood mechanism, rocking cradle function
Navetta is very comfortable and roomy for the baby and allows it to lay flat. Young babies should not lay reclined in car seats / infant carriers for extended period of time. This is bad for baby's backbone. While in car it's necessary, should be avoided at other times. The truly unique feature is a very comfortable rigid handle that makes it really easy to move around. This is a handle like in infant car seats/carriers.The Velo chassis has bike tires and soft spring suspension and is especially great for strolls on uneven terrain (like sidewalks in our town) or off-road on grass or trail paths.
We highly recommend Navetta to anyone who actually takes little baby for strolls (highly recommended for both baby's health and mom's shape) and want to be sure that the baby is comfortable and safe.
Peg Perego Milano XL Stroller
A high quality stroller/carriage combination. The handle is reversible, a feature that we love. The stroller also features removable and washable upholstery, suspension wheels, a boot, adjustable leg rest, and most importantly Peg Perego quality. It is lightweight and folds easily for storage in the car. Unlike many of the strollers on the market that seem to be made primarily of plastic, the design of this Peg Perego stroller is attractive and conveys durability. The XL model, is the latest offering and features more room than last years model with plush upholstery, a wider chassis and more legroom. The stroller also has the "Babysafe" enclosure system, designed to prevent baby from falling out when in the reclined position.
Combi Spirit
The Spirit has an adjustable handle, providing ultimate comfort for both mom and dad and can be flipped so that your child can either ride facing you or facing away. The seat has a three position recline and it is fairly lightweight as far as carriage/strollers go, weighing in at 16 lbs. The large hood closes to completely cover your child, a great feature when you are caught outside in the rain. The Spirit includes a long boot which also protects and covers baby from the elements. Folds easily with a foot pedal and includes a large storage basket.
Peg Perego Venezia Stroller
This attractive stroller has so many adjustable features that it is sure to be a comfortable ride for both you and your child. The handle is height adjustable and reversible so your child can either ride carriage-style facing towards you or stroller style facing away. The leg rest has two positions, the front bumper bar can be adjusted or removed, and it comes with a removable boot that provides both weather and safety protection. When the backrest is reclined and the boot is in place it prevents your child from slipping out. The canopy covers your child all the way to the boot providing maximum protection from the elements. The stroller rides very smoothly and like most Peg Perego products, they can fetch a high resale price because consumers know they will retain their value.
