5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy, easy to install, and fun to ride!, April 12, 2009

We just bought one of these to attach to our umbrella stroller and it works so well! It is easy to adjust to just about any stroller and the platform, wheels, hardware, and connectors are all so sturdy that I have no problem recommending this to everyone. The platform is tall enough that you can easily walk behind it without kicking it. It handles beautifully over bumpy sidewalks and roads, even over small curbs without losing stability. It handles very responsively around corners, turning quickly and easily. This made our walk so much fun and so much easier on the way home with a tired kid hitching a ride! You can leave the connectors on your stroller (which easily adjust without tools to accommodate the collapse of your stroller) and the platform connects easily in two spots, so you can take the platform off in seconds when you're done. We have a Eurotrend stroller, which is light and simple to use and we've had it for years. I considered getting a sit and ride stroller for my baby and toddler, and the stroller is so huge that it wouldn't fit into my trunk, not to mention that I couldn't see the front of those long strollers so I don't know how I would steer in crowds without hitting people! The double strollers are also heavy, expensive and hard to find locally. If you have a decent umbrella stroller that steers well and is sturdy, this platform will make it the perfect stroller for a walk with two kids. It seems pricey compared to the price of your stroller (my stroller was only $80!), but it is worth every penny. This Valco stroller board is awesome and I wish I had known about it last year! I am looking forward to a summer of outings with my two kids!

3.0 out of 5 stars Kid loves, parents deal, January 31, 2010

I had high hopes that my 2 year old son would love it and allow my wife to move around malls, sidewalks and parks. It arrived in good condition and was easy to setup on my Graco Mosaic stroller. It is sturdy and easy to attach/detach. My son likes peering into my 1 month old daughter's car carrier while he rides.

Unfortunately, the stroller handles are too short and we either have to take small steps or walk alongside the stroller, a more difficult walk than we would have liked. Backing up out of elevators tilts the platform when it crosses the threshold, causing imbalance just when we need the balance. It also doesn't have a warranty in the United States.

This leads to a final score of 3/5. Good luck with your decision.

Pros:

1. Works great with different models of strollers - very, very flexibile design

2. Superb quality through out - SAFE

3. My 2.5 y.o. loves it - cushy, sturdy ride.

Cons:

1. Installation instructions suck - in the end, you will, of course, figure it out - but might take you some time (took me 15 min to figure it out, and an additional 10 min to actually put it together)
