Amazing stroller!, February 27, 2009
This stroller has everything I wanted from it! It not only looks great, it is very practical. The design is very well thought out. I specifically wanted a stroller I could handle and steer by one hand, since in the other one I have leashes with two Afghan Hounds and I have to walk them twice a day (and not just for 10-15 minutes). Not only that, to get to the trail I have to cross a meadow with lots of bumps and overgrown grass etc. This stroller handles it perfectly and with ease due to the air-filled and large tires, and the baby is very comfortable. (I took the baby out a week after he was born.) The stroller folds and unfolds in seconds and I don't have a problem lifting it and loading it into our cars. You can always adjust the handle to fit into smaller trunks (and remove the wheels, as well, which I didn't have to do). We found that navigating through tight spaces and isles in supermarkets and malls is actually extremely easy due to the steerable wheels. And our car seat even sits fairly tight on top of the stroller but we only did that a couple of times. We live in North Ohio so winters are really cold and windy and I was at first worried about not having a basinet, for which I didn't really want to spend additional money, but the baby is nicely tucked in in the stroller and safe from the wind. And with the help of a foot muff and extra blanket we can go outside if the temps are not too low. In summary, we've had this stroller for 5 months now and we just love it. It was well worth the money and I would recommend it to anyone needing a "luxurious yet heavy duty" stroller!

Best stroller anywhere, period., November 18, 2009
The QueenB is the best stroller there is, ever, period. I have owned and tried many high end boutique strollers, and this is head and shoulders above anything I have yet come across.
We've had ours from about 18 months. The more I use it, the more I'm impressed with it. It is a dream.
I have heard the criticism that its hard to turn in tight spaces. Bologna! Its is the EASIEST to turn in tight spaces. And of this point you may want to make additional note in the manual or such as I can see how people may make that inaccurate conclusion. If you "push forward" into the turn so as to put weight on the front wheels, they straighten out and make tight turns tough. But if you "push down" on the rear to take weight off the front wheels, it is the easiest tight "turn on a dime" ever. It actually turns itself. I can load the QueenB with a 1 year old and a 5 year old (with toddler seat) plus the ever full diaper bag, and navigate any department store with one hand... like a dream. There is no other stroller that could do this. (Admittedly if you try turning it like its a Graco, you could frustrate at it.)
Not to mention its just smooth as ice, with the oh-so-clever shock absorbers (kudos to the designer on that one) and the large air inflated tires. I enjoy just pushing it; I imagine for the kids its even smoother. So solid and sturdy, even with the adjustable handles, which I worried would get wobbly and "give" over time, it is a solid tank. We are increasingly impressed, dazzled, and amazed the more we use it.
Is anything wrong with it? Yes, a few downsides. Its heavy to lift, and is a large stroller; this is minor to me. The cup holder isn't fantastic; thats irritating, but also minor. The foot brake is solid and effective at being a brake, but is hard to release with your foot; sometimes I need to bend down and use my hand to release it. All minor complaints when compared to its upsides.
Well I just wanted to take a minute to give feedback on this fantastic stroller. The engineers did a great job.

The Regal BumbleRide Queen B, July 22, 2009
I recently received this stroller, and it may just be the most beautiful stroller on the market. Not only does it evoke the image of the old-fashioned style pram, but it has terrific features too! It's available in ruby (a beautiful red, which is what I have) and lava (black). Both have beautiful lining and are unisex in appearance. The four air-filled wheels are huge and give the stroller a nice, easy ride. I received many compliments while strolling the Queen B around my neighborhood, and even my hard to impress family and friends found it beautiful.
It comes with an air pump, foot muff (for cold, wintry days), and rain cover (you are ready to go in all weather!), and has a very roomy compartment underneath for storage. It also comes with a cup holder, and two great options are a toddler seat (this is what I got) so you can seat two, and a bassinet (which you may not find necessary when you see how perfectly flat this reclines...I am able to put my baby inside comfortably to sleep, and the foot rest elevates to enclose the bottom, turning the stroller into a pseudo-bassinet). It's perfect to use from birth onward.
My favorite characteristics about this fabulous stroller are 1. it's reversible! You can have the baby face you or face the world, and it's easy to do! and 2. it's very easy to put together (I am 5 months pregnant and was able to assemble it with ease- no tools required), and manipulate...to open and close, to shift and maneuver, etc.
Other great features include the safety harness and padding (for safety and comfort), the bumper bar (which can be removed to add the toddler seat), and an adjustible handle bar (my husband is very tall, and I'm very petite, so we really appreciate this).
It's not a jogging stroller (if you plan to jog, run or speed-walk, this isn't for you), but if you are looking for a great stroller for long, comfortable strolls through the park, for a stroller that allows you to spend time walking and facing your baby, bonding, for a stroller with a beautiful look, that also allows your baby to sleep comfortably, and has conveniences for you too, this is the perfect stroller, and beats competing luxury strollers in terms of looks and price by quite a bit!
