We purchased this stroller last fall. It looks good, and rolls wonderfully across northeast sidewalks, which can be a little rough. It was exactly what we wanted in a stroller for those roughly 2 miles we were able to use it.
This spring when we are ready to use it again, the second walk we take this spring and all of the sudden; the front wheel locks up and is leaning to the side, causing the stroller to not run straight. The fork bearing was shot. I contacted baby trend and the replacement part, while covered under warranty, is on back order. So, I have no stroller for the spring. I even volunteered to drive to Binghamton (40 miles) to return it to Toys R. Us. But the warranty only covers the replacement part, which they don’t have in stock. So, I can suffer and spread the word. Or I can spread the word and buy another stroller and have two.
Sum it up as a nice looking model with nice features, but poorly built. It’s a lot of money, put to far better use. Our similar stroller for the first child was an In Step. Used it 2.5 years and gave it to my sister who used it for 2 more. I’d have to say your money is better spent on a better brand.
Save yourself from the same fate as I.
(Edit to add: Still no response from Baby Trend, and no replacement bearing. I will do my best to keep this updated when/if I receive parts.)
