Baby Trend Expedition Jogging Stroller Review

An Actual User Review:
When I visited Babies R Us, a certain stroller caught my attention and answered my needs and price range for my baby’s pushchair. This stroller that I am pertaining to is the Baby Trend Expedition. It priced for only 109.99 dollars.

The Expedition strollers have various features of the top bill jogging strollers with lesser and affordable price. One of its features includes the color choice of the stroller. It has two colors: navy and “outdoor classic” which has a combination of hunter green and tan colors. Of course, I chose the navy one.

The stroller that I had bought has a seat and canopy of navy blue with its frame of black. The sun canopy of the stroller is a big one and can be pushed back to let you see your toddler. Furthermore, the sun canopy can also be folded up. It has two storage spaces; one is an elastic pouch and the other zips up. Another storage area can be found underneath the seat. You can store your purse or the diaper bag in it. The seat can also be reclined depending on the wants or needs of the baby. If you want to recline it or in a sitting position, a nylon strap is provided for opening (recline) and closing (sitting up). We usually used the sitting position for the baby. If ever you are going to recline the seat from its original sitting position, it is advisable for you to support the back of the child so as not to wake him up; since, an instant clipping of the strap will absolutely rattle the child from his sleep.

When I used it for my baby, the safety of the child was attained which is vital for all moms around the globe. This kind of stroller appears with an adjustable 5-point harness restraint system. What I really liked about this stroller is that it can grow with the child; to think that my child is 5 months old already. This Expedition stroller has room for a child up to 50 pounds. It exhibits a very large fender at the front wheel to protect the feet of the child. The feet of my son do not leave the seat yet and this provision is good for future use when he gets bigger. The Expedition stroller has two brakes. It comprises the hand brake which controls the front wheel brake, and the back wheel brake. These features are not usually used since it is very tricky to assemble. The hand brake is very useful especially if you are going down the terrain or if you are on the run for jogging. In consequence, the stroller provided a tether strap/leash to wrap around the wrist.

Another desirable feature of this stroller is the way it is folded. The folding is easy to do and nicely to look at. In fact, it is folded smaller compared to my Graco stroller before. The steps in folding the stroller are so easy to follow. You are just going to push a button at the right side and push down the hinge using your thumb. Then it folds smoothly and almost flat. The biggest part of the stroller is its wheels. It has 12″ rear wheels and a 16″ front wheel. The tire is inflatable. Therefore, you need to inflate it every now and then.

Thus, these features would only cost for 100 dollars. So what is the catch? The Expedition stroller is somewhat heavier than the aluminum frame strollers. This frame is constructed from lightweight steel. Nevertheless, the weight is very light and provides a smooth ride in all types of terrain.
