We no longer need our double stroller! I'm kind of sad to see it go! Our four year old is plenty "old enough" to walk next to the stroller, when we are out for longer jaunts now. That means, it is officially time to part with the double stroller and find something that is more feasible for the one little guy we have left to ride. But where do you start? There are so many places to buy strollers online, so many different types and styles and options galore? This mommy of four could tend to feel a little overwhelmed by it all.
Thanks to CSNbaby.com, overwhelming was not my first emotion when I arrived on their site to search out the ideal stroller situation for us now. They have their stroller section broke down into categories, so you can immediately single out the type of stroller that you're looking for. Since I wanted something light and a single stroller, I clicked on their lightweight stroller section. Immediately, I changed the search engine to the "lowest to highest" option. Since we do not have an unlimited budget to work with, finding one in our price range was also easy to do. They have a great selection and most of their products have "reviews", so you can find out what other's thought about the product before you buy it yourself. That makes me feel better about making my selection.
After reading the reviews (the other colors of this same style stroller had reviews) and checking the price (which was saving us 34%), I settled on the "Dream On Me" European Styled Stroller. I picked the grey color, because it was neutral and rugged. I figured it would handle the wear and tear our little guy will give it. Shipping was very quick (it was sent to us free of charge by CSNbaby.com for this review) and I was pleasantly surprised to find it on our doorstep only a few short days after ordering it.
Now, I have to tell you that I was a little worried about the box size. To me, it appeared that it was small enough to have the stroller inside, but have it be in a million pieces instead of one assembled stroller. I got worried that I should wait until the kids were in bed to pull it out of the box, just in case it required a couple hours worth of assembly. But because the kids were very excited and anxious about seeing the product inside, we opened it and much to my surprise (and excitement), it was almost completely put together. I had to attach the two front wheels, the canopy and the foam safety lap bar. That was it! It took me literally 2 minutes total and it was ready to roll!

It has a nice plastic covered foam lap bar, which will make for easy clean up when sticky hands touch all over it from snacks while we are out and about.
I love the look of this stroller. It is very European (in style & look) and the way the handlebars are made, it is perfect for taller or shorter parents. Which is fantastic for us, since my husband is 6'4" and I am 5'4". I also like the fact that the seat reclines back pretty far, making it the perfect napping environment for an exhausted toddler (or infant for that matter).
It has a very nice sized basket for my purse or shopping bags. It also has a pocket on the canopy that is perfect for storing things like pacifiers or car keys. I like that a lot!
Any guesses who might be pretty excited about his new stroller? Yes...he couldn't wait to get in and go for a stroll! HE LOVED IT!
So here we are...getting ready to roll. This stroller steers like a dream and I am overall very impressed with it! I would highly recommend it for a new parent as well as a parent looking to trade in their double stroller for that final single stroller purchase (like me).
The reason the box was so small? It folds up (very easily) almost completely flat! IDEAL for our family, because we need all the extra room in the back of the van we can get. Especially when we are packing for a vacation and taking the stroller along is an absolute must! Overall, this stroller gets a 5 out of 5 stars for me. It performs well, it looks great and my son is comfortable and cozy in this stroller.
