Reviews of the Britax Chaperone Stroller

Real Reviews Submitted by Real Users!

I really hit the jackpot when I got this stroller, and I really love it.  I will confess to never owning a travel system before, so maybe just having one at all is what makes this one so appealing, but I still love it.  I don't have any complaints and it looks like it's made well and everything is well thought-out.  The stroller is full size and looks like it's about the same size as the Inglesina Zippy I used to have and also loved.  And I adore its Cowmooflage fabric!

The stroller's articulating handle is great for me because I'm tall.  Normally, I'd have to kick the back of the strollers I've used before (even those made for tall people) but I don't need to do that with the Chaperone and I'm able to walk behind it just fine.  YEAH!!

The stroller uses the same concept as the Baby Jogger Citi Mini and has a true one-hand fold that works really well.  You just pull on the seat's center tab and it closes!  Its shade/canopy isn't as big as I'd like but even so, it's adequate.  The Baby Jogger Mini's canopy is larger, and I do love that.

At first I was worried about the wheels because I thought they were plastic - but they're not.  They feel like a rubber tire and they provide a smooth ride - even on the street and some of the trails we have behind our house.  The stroller's very maneuverable and I can push it with one hand.  One time I pushed it at the same time I was also pushing a shopping cart that was loaded with food.  It was easy - I just used one hand to push each one of them.

The basket under the stroller is sizeable.  There's a parent tray which is big enough for two drinks and has a separate compartment for your cell phone, keys and so on, and there's also a child tray (although you don't need to use it).

It's easy to pop off the wheels if you need to, and the foot rest nicely articulates for a child.

Popping the matching baby car seat into place is so easy it's like a dream come true.  The mechanism is creative and I don't think I could really describe how it works, but I really love it and can't complain at all.  The stroller also comes with an adapter strap if you want to use other compatible car seats.

You set the footbrake by pushing down and release it the same way - just like the parking brake in our minivan.  I love it because I don't need to try to pull up on the brake with the top of my toes.  Doing that always makes my toes hurt!

So far the only problem I've had was when I was walking and accidentally kicked the brake and engaged it.  Not a big deal ...

I'll update if I think of anything else, but so far I love my Britax Chaperone!

I have a 2 ½ year old daughter and bought this stroller because I wanted it to be the last one I'd buy for her.  Now I wish it was the first and only one I'd bought.  Its Cowmooflage pattern is stylish (I love it!), the ride is smooth, it has a large basket under the stroller, it features great child and parent trays, and it's really easy to use.  As far as I can tell, it only has two slight drawbacks - it's a little heavy, so putting it in and taking it out of the trunk is a bit more work than an umbrella stroller.  That's probably because it's so well-built, though.  You can really see this is a quality stroller, and there isn't anything cheesy or cheap about it.  You do need to put heavier objects toward the front of the basket or the back bar might collapse down into the folding position.  I strongly recommend this stroller, especially if you have a toddler!
