There are two basic layouts for a triple baby stroller – either the seats are side by side or they are in a line. For each of them, there are some pros and cons.

February 20, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
Triple strollers are kind of hard to find, are often very expensive, and can be difficult to maneuver due to their size and weight. However, despite these negatives, they are a necessity for those with triplets or 3 small children.
Just like double strollers, there are now triple strollers that have a sit and stand option. The Joovy Big Caboose offers 2 full seats with full canopies and foot rests and then a standing board for a third older child. Unlike traditional 3-seaters, there is no cramped middle seat on this stroller. The rear standing platform even has a small folding seat that can be used if the child decides to sit.
How to Select the Best Double or Triple Stroller
February 19, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
If you’re a parent of twins or triplets, then purchasing a double stroller or triple stroller is a necessity of life. There are many different models available on the market, so doing some research beforehand is crucial to finding the best stroller for your own particular lifestyle. To help you narrow down the possibilities, think carefully about the following points before you go stroller shopping:
Your regular activities and their duration
There are many different types of double and triple strollers on the market: lightweight, standard, prams, jogging, and all-terrain. Will you be taking the children shopping in malls, for walks around the neighborhood, jogging, on off-road hikes or on long trips out of town? The activities you do most often will decide what type of stroller you should choose. You may even realize, like most parents eventually do, that you need more than one stroller because the perfect stroller that can do everything simply does not yet exist!
Also, how much time will your twins or triplets be spending in a stroller? Will you be taking them out on a daily basis or only a couple of times a week? Will they be in the stroller for long or short periods of time? The comfort and durability of the stroller you purchase should reflect the amount of use it will get.
Seating design
Double strollers and triple strollers come in two seating designs: tandem (one seat in front of the other) or side-by-side. They each have their advantages and disadvantages, although many parents of twins and triplets agree that, once at the toddler stage, having the children side-by-side is better for keeping the peace. Many double side-by-side strollers are now designed narrow enough to go through doorways, however this is not possible with triple models.
Height and weight
Strollers vary greatly in height and weight. The handle needs to be at the right height for the person pushing it and the base of the stroller should be a certain distance away from the body to permit a comfortable walking or running stride. Also make sure it folds up easily and isn’t too heavy to lift and put in your vehicle. Double strollers and triple strollers are heavier and bulkier than single strollers, but there are models that are easier to handle than others.
Features
Strollers can have a variety of different features. You can choose a double stroller or triple stroller that is simple with no frills, or one that has all the bells and whistles (parent and child trays, storage pockets, sun canopies, a rain shield, fully reclining seats, etc.), lots of comfort, durability and storage space. Go check out some strollers in stores or do research on the Internet and make a list of what features you absolutely want before making your final decision.
Space
Double and triple strollers take up a lot of room! The size of your vehicle may be a big deciding factor when choosing a stroller for your twins or triplets. Make sure it folds up quickly and easily and fits. And don’t forget to make sure you have space to store it in your house or garage if necessary.
Price
This is probably the most important point to ponder. Think carefully of your present and future stroller needs. Twins and triplets tend to spend more time in strollers than singletons. What is the minimum you are willing to live with? Is it maybe worth it to spend a little (or a lot!) more money on a comfortable, high quality double stroller or triple stroller that will last the two or three years you will need it rather than buy a budget stroller that is hard to handle and may break down after a few months? If you’d like more time to do some research, consider purchasing a double or triple universal car seat carrier (stroller frame) as an inexpensive and very convenient alternative for the first year of your children’s lives.
After having considered all these factors and made a list of your criteria, start seriously researching the various brands and models of double strollers and triple strollers that are on the market. The Internet and consumer review guides of baby gear are great places to quickly find the information you’re looking for. Next, if at all possible, go to stores and test drive the strollers that meet your criteria. If the double or triple stroller you want is not available in your area, consider purchasing it directly from the manufacturer or from an online store. Make sure that you can return the stroller for a full refund if you aren’t satisfied with your purchase.
Your life is already complicated by the arrival of twins or triplets. Having a reliable double stroller or triple stroller will make outings with your little ones go much smoother, so make sure you take the time to do some research and purchase the best stroller for your family’s lifestyle.
Triple Stroller Criteria
February 14, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
In the world of strollers, now available are triplet strollers and quad strollers. The triplet stroller, of course, has three baby seats. There are two designs of triplet strollers. One is designed in a way that the babies are lined up vertically and one where the babies are lined up horizontally.
In reality, mothers or nannies who do not necessarily have triplets can also use the triplet strollers. It could be used for babies of different ages as long as they still fit inside the stroller. It could even be used for caretakers in day care centers or other baby-sitting businesses.
What to look for:
Since the triplet strollers carry multiple babies, there should be criteria in buying the item. Here are the things that you should look for:
1. Quality of materials. When selecting triplet strollers and quad strollers, you need to see if the materials used do not easily break. For the fabric, it should not easily rip off as well. Besides, it is worth the cost since the usage of the strollers will be for a long time, accommodating babies ages zero to their late toddlers years.
2. Easy to maneuver. Since you are carrying many babies in the stroller, the design or the stroller that you buy should make it easy for you to maneuver. It should turn easily and should be as flexible as possible. It must also be easily maneuvered in different surfaces and terrains.
3. The triplet strollers and quad strollers should have spacious storage that can be filled with those things that your babies will need. Whether it is beneath the stroller or below the seat, the storage space should carry enough items for all your babies.
4. Although generally triplet strollers and quad strollers look bulky, you should choose one that can be folded for easy storage or travel. This way, it will not take too much space at home, in the day care center or in the car.
With these needed features, you will not only accommodate all your babies in one stroller, but you will also meet your needs in terms of convenience and at the same time your babies will feel comfortable riding on their stroller.
