I thought that I knew a lot about all of the great stroller products that are out in the market today – Graco, Peg Perego, Maclaren, Bugaboo, etc. Last week I was pleasantly surprised to find a stroller manufacturer that I really never noticed: Joovy.
Joovy Strollers
Joovy Strollers, based out of Dallas Texas, is setting new standards in stroller design and functionality. Their designs are functional, simple and clever. Their products leave me scratching my head as I wonder “why didn’t I think of that?” The Joovy product line consists of four product types: Single Strollers, Double Strollers, Triple Strollers and Jogging Strollers. The key benefits that Joovy offers are:
- Comfort
- Safety
- Versatility
- Value
- Portability
All Joovy strollers are built with light weight aluminum frames and feature all the conveniences you’d expect from the top brand strollers. Buts what grabs your attention are their practical designs from the Kooper, a light weight umbrella “Buggy Stroller”, to the ever popular Caboose – a double stroller that is compact and highly maneuverable.
Single Strollers
Joovy features two lightweight single strollers. The Groove and the Kooper.
Groove: The Groove has a light weight aluminum frame, reclining seat, oversized canopy with an extending sun visor, cup holders a zippered storage compartment and a parking brake.
Kooper: The Kooper is a light weight umbrella stroller which is a combination of a euro style buggy and a modern umbrella stroller. It’s a good looking stroller.
Double Strollers:
Joovy has designed double strollers to be both practical and maneuverable. Tired of heavy double strollers that handle like an aircraft carrier? With the Joovy Caboose double stroller you can navigate through crowded shopping centers like a pro.
Caboose: The Caboose Stand-On Tandem stroller allows an older child to sit or stand on the stroller’s rear platform / seat while a younger child rides up front. The Caboose is also equipped with a universal car seat attachment system for infants.
Ergo Caboose: The Ergo Caboose is sure to be a crowd pleaser. The Ergo Caboose is the high-end luxury version of the Caboose double stroller. In addition to the light weight sit and stand functionality that comes standard with the Caboose, the Ergo Caboose features a new multi-functional sun canopy, a flip-open rear seat, a swing away front tray with 2 removable cup holders… but what really sets it apart is the ergonomically engineered front seat – your little ones will really be riding in comfort in this stroller!
Caboose Ultralight: What do you get when you take the light weight compact Caboose double stroller and make it lighter and more maneuverable? You get the Caboose Ultralight. It’s so light, compact and easy to maneuver you might end up strolling all day long. The Caboose Ultralight weighs 21 pounds, its 20% lighter than the Caboose which is already much lighter than other double strollers available today. The great thing about the Caboose Ultralight is that you don’t have to sacrifice functionality to get this light weight stroller. The Ultralight has sealed ball-bearing wheels which makes for an effortless smooth ride. It also has a neoprene Cool Essentials Parent Organizer and a deluxe sun canopy – you can have an easy to maneuver stroller and great features too.
Groove 2: The compactness of the Groove 2 double umbrella stroller makes it easy to get around. The Joovy design team found a way to blend the convenience for the parents (light weight and maneuverable) and comfort for the children. Joovy’s Groove 2 is easy to maneuver in tight spaces and it doesn’t take up a lot of space when folded.
Big Caboose: If you have three young children and it seems like a hassle getting around – take a good look at the Big Caboose sit and stand stroller from Joovy. The Big Caboose comes with two full size seats with canopies, two universal car seat attachments, two child trays, two foot rests and a huge storage basket. Your third older child can either sit on the rear padded jump seat or he or she can stand on the rear platform.
Jogging strollers
Joovy has recently introduced their all terrain / jogging stroller called Zoom. The Zoom jogging stroller comes in two different models, the Zoom ATS with a fixed front wheel for runners and the Zoom 360 with a swivel front wheel for 360 degrees of maneuverability.
Zoom: The Joovy Zoom jogging stroller is built with sturdy aircraft aluminum and tough, durable, fabric. Zoom has a fantastic suspension system that smoothes out the bumps to provide a comfortable ride for your child. A neoprene parent organizer that holds 2 cups and has a zippered container, an easy access storage basket and a custom-fit rain/wind cover comes with all Zoom jogging strollers.
In Summary
Joovy strollers set themselves apart from the competition by offering innovative designs that, in turn, give moms, dads, great value and unprecedented mobility and the “little ones” get a comfortable ride – and a bit of fun.
The Stroller Shop
A great place to compare and contrast Graco Strollers with other top brands such as Joovy, Peg Perego and Maclaren.
