Great find!,
This review is from: Joovy Kooper Umbrella Stroller (Baby Product)
I know this is long, but I really wanted to highlight this stroller and some of the features we didn't even know about until after we got it. We purchased this stroller after a few weeks of research. As many other people have done before, we were ready to move on from the huge car seat/stroller combo and get a more compact set of baby wheels with some style.After considering the Peg Perego P3 Pliko (USED mind you wow $$$), the 3 wheeling Jeep, the Kolcraft Contours 4 wheeler (this came in very close second but only comes in orange and my husband vetoed that color outright) and the Gogo Babyz Urban I found myself going back to this one over and over. Finally we hit a store that carried it to give it a spin. My husband was sure he wouldn't like it, but after putting our 11 month old daughter in it for a test drive as well as messing with many of the other strollers there, we left the store with a Brownie Kooper and are extremely satisfied. Including the husband. So here are the pros and cons of what we consider a spectacular find. If you want quick why we love it just shoot to the end! Pros: LIGHT weight and folds very compact. Our (awesome) Graco system takes up the entire trunk area of the station wagon. We had it with us when we purchased the Kooper and so we had almost no room back there. So we put the Kooper in the backseat and it fit in between our 7 yo daughter and our 11 month old in her huge car seat. Comfy with baby in mind. The seat doesn't let your kid slouch and is well padded but solid firmness for back support. I can't stand umbrella strollers on average because of how kids have to sit in them. Not a problem here. The shoulder straps have padding around them and one benefit we found not listed on their site or obvious in photos is that the buckles swivel, so you don't have to struggle to keep the straps straight with a squirmy baby. Just buckle her in then swivel them to the correct position- no twisted straps. It is also amazingly roomy because of how the bars arc around the child. They are smaller at the foot and the handles and wide in the middle, like those arc rod shower curtains. Buckling the kid in is also a snap. As in snap snap done. Yet I can still tell you the babies can't undo it. Very secure. Our girl normally hates 5 point harnesses but was cozy and happy from the first. The recline really is superb. One handed recline with no pre-defined height settings. Put it where you want it. Maneuverability is a breeze. My husband can't keep up with me in store aisles as it turns on a dime and fits everywhere you do. You can easily push and turn the Kooper with one hand. The bottom bars are high enough off the ground and far enough underneath the stroller that my 6 foot husband could not kick the axles even when he tried during our two hour around the store testing session. They also support the bottom of the basket so it can support more weight. (The basket is also removable for cleaning!) The padded handles are very comfortable and at a good height for both of us (I'm 5'5" and he is 6') The hood. OMG the hood. Canopy, sun visor, however you label it. One of the only strollers I've come across that actually has one worth having! The peekaboo window is also a respectable size and rolls up and secures with a toggle loop. The cool part is, you can unvelcro the hood and rotate it to cover the front of the baby. The top of the baby's back rest has a strip of Velcro that will then attach to the BOTTOM of the part the drinks hang on, and you have a foot more shade! Mind you, I would not leave anything in the cup holders at this time :D Brakes work great, are easy to do and enough of a challenge to undo I don't worry about an accidental break release yet still simple enough to not annoy you. Collapsing and setting up are also speedy fast and well done designed. The Kooper does have a latch to hold it closed when folded. There are reflectors on the hood, the shoulder straps, the side and the labels. If you bought a dark one like me (we wanted one that hid dirt well, it is for long term use, there WILL be stains) these will really help with visibility at night. Storage: The zip compartment on back is perfect for keeping sunblock, neosporin, band-aids, keys, wallet, etc... anything you want to have stay with the stroller and secure. The bottle holders are very handy as well though I would recommend getting an add on parent tray for open type cups. We mostly keep sunscreen bottles in them. A nice additional touch I've also never seen on any stroller are the mesh pockets in the CHILD area for them to store a favorite toy, snack, etc... and be able to access it themselves. It has 3 heights for the shoulder straps, once again something to make sure it grows with your child. It goes up to 50 pounds. For a lightweight stroller, this is superb. Cons: The handles are not height adjustable, this has never been a big deal for me but I know some people need it. They do not recommend use until 6 months, so it IS technically a replacement or second stroller. It is not car seat compatible either. The Kooper does not come with parent or child snack trays but you can easily buy affordable add ons to fix this. It seems to be a negative for most "Umbrella classified" strollers due to the way they fold- we have to remove the add on one before we collapse the Joovy since it gets so compact. The cup holders are more closed bottle holders- I recommend getting an add on parent tray (Like the sunshine kids one). We use them to store our sunscreen bottles for us and the kids. There is no bumper/safety bar if you look for that. Once again, there are add ons (such as the belly bar) but add ons do add cost to the overall price of the stroller. While I find the quality worth it, some may not. The brakes are not for bare toes, they are sturdy and not meant to be lightly undone. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So our final opinion is: Awesome stroller! The color choices give wide options (I hate how many strollers have like one or two choices and if you love the stroller just hope you can deal with the patterns) The overall look is really nice. Looking from the front the whole thing is just nice curves and well thought out. Aluminum, high strength easy clean attractive fabric, and all the little touches (like the mesh pouches for kids, reflectors, swivel snaps, movable canopy and zip compartment) really add up to great value. It also passed rigorous safety testing. A+ in my book. I hope this helps, and if it isn't the right one for you, I wish you the best on the great stroller search. Gotta love our babies!

I love this stroller!!!,
By BUSYMAMAX5 (South Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Joovy Kooper Umbrella Stroller (Baby Product)
I spent many months and countless hours researching strollers for my 20 lb., 10 month old daughter who has outgrown her infant carseat that I used with the Graco Snap-N-Go(which I love as well).This is going to be our only stroller and plan to use it until she no longer needs to ride in one. I looked/compared them in stores (the ones they carry here in stores at least, which isn't alot unfortunately) as well as read and watched what must of been thousands of reviews online. This is for my 5th child so I have used many different strollers in the past, none of which I liked very much. I had finally narrowed it down to just two... the Kooper and the Baby Jogger City Mini. They are very similar but a few differences are the City Mini's fold (very easy, 1-step), you can add different accessories to it (belly bar, snack tray), as well as a one piece handle bar, all of which I loved. After a lot of negative reviews though about the seat in the City Mini(very little to no support, doesn't sit up straight/lays back at angle even when in upright position and my child likes to sit up and see what's going on), straps hard to adjust/tighten on little ones, can tip backwards very easily when seat is fully reclined, it doesn't stand on it's own when folded/has to lay flat and it is about 24 inches wide... not good for the back of my minivan, as well as the Kopper was substancially cheaper being that it was on sale, I decided the Kooper was the better choice for us and I am so glad I did! My daughter absolutely loves this stoller as well as the rest of the family. It is so easy to push, turns on a dime, very smooth ride, great little pockets for the little ones "stuff", straps are easy to adjust and is comfortable for my daughter(they have padded covers that velcro so they can be taken off to be cleaned), love the canopy...great sun protection (it can also extend almost all the way down to bottom of seat when it's in upright position if you un-velcro top loops)and has a peek-a-boo window, reflective strips are great for night walks, easy seat recline, great fabric... I got it in lemontree and was a little worried about keeping it clean but it's a very durable and easy to clean, woven heavy-duty fabric. The fold is pretty simple, easy and compact... doesn't self lock when folded but I have found that not to be a problem at all, and it fits perectly in the back of my van as well.The basket is pretty good, not great, but not a big issue for us either and it does also have storage and drink holders on the back. I have also read/heard that Joovy's customer service is great and they completely stand behind their products. I could go on and on gushing about this stroller but to sum it up...If you're looking for a sturdy, well built, a breeze to push(even one-handed), comfortable for your baby/child(especially if they like sitting up straight when not napping), easy to fold, light-weight (especially compared to the travel system and full size strollers), amazing canopy/sun protection, good storage(for a light-weight) for both you and your baby, looks great, easy to clean and is pretty reasonably priced(I got a great deal on amazon with free shipping) in my opinion the Kooper is the stroller for you.

It also passed rigorous safety testing. A+ in my book. Oh! When collapsed, it lays with all four wheels still on the floor, meaning you can still push/pull it and have it roll. I've used my daughter's sippy cup strap (a leash pretty much) to pull it behind me. I hope this helps, and if it isn't the right one for you, I wish you the best on the great stroller search. Gotta love our babies! 2115|R38N0FP22SNVX3;2115|R24JT3J2IY0YLN;2115|R6MODK4TF21MY;
