If you are looking for a stroller that is lightweight and very affordable, The First Years recently released a line called the Ignite™ Lightweight Stroller, which features a premium Euro style frame and 50 lb. rating (making it ideal for extended use).
The First Years Ignite™ Stroller in Red Stripe
Of course, it has the basic safety features such as a 5-point harness, as well as taller handles to make pushing more comfortable for taller parents. The Ignite features multi-position recline, a large storage basket, extra-large parent console and an adjustable, removable canopy. It usually retails for about $64.99, and I’ve seen it on sale for even less, so it’s a pretty good bargain.
This type of stroller is perfect if you are looking for something lightweight for your older children to sit/sleep in when you go out to do errands and are toting your child along. He gets tired and cranky, you have lots more shopping to do, and this is a lightweight and compact stroller to have at hand for your little one to just relax in while you get everything done. Basically, useful for a mom who shops or runs around doing lots of errands.
Thank you to the company for allowing me to donate a stroller in exchange for sharing this information.
a good stroller is a necessity! this one looks efficient and stylish
Looks like a great stroller to keep in your truck for quick outings! And I like that it is small like an umbrella stroller but has a basket like a bigger one!
I wish there was such thing as a light-weight double stroller; I need a double for my little ones . . but would love something as lightweight and durable as this Ignite stroller. (sigh)
Looks really nice! 🙂
I might have to look into this one. DD is too big for a lot of them, and most I see that can handle her size are expensive. I don’t want to spend big dollars on something that will only get used a dozen or so times, but would come in handy for some outings.
This is the type of stroller I need to get for my nephew. He started to walk a few months ago. I plan on taking him on lots of trips to the Zoo and park and this sounds perfect!
That looks like a really nice stroller. I am glad those days are pretty much behind me though 🙂
Light strollers are a must for me, nothing big a bulky. Sounds like a great stroller for moms
that looks awesome, I wish we had found one like that when Taylor was born- too late now lol
Nice! I always appreciate when I stroller has taller handles. My husband is 6’8″ and there are so many strollers out there that are uncomfortable for him to push.
I’d like to have a single stroller again, but it doesn’t make sense when I still have two to ride. Double strollers are so bulky, even though they are very nice to have for carrying extra stuff.
I like the style of it! I am so sick of big bulky strollers, I need something lightweight.
My double stroller is very light (from Maclaren- the twin techno…it’s lighter than my single Bumbleride!)
I have stairs, so light strollers are a must.
That looks like a great stroller for my two year old during soccer games this year, since now that I will have TWO kids playing soccer on FOUR different days my two year old will get sleepy and need a place to relax. Thanks for this amazing review!
Sounds like a great lightweight stroller.
