I think it's great so many mom youtubers are reviewing the mockingbird. It really is such an aesthetically pleasing and affordable option for parents, even though it didn't work out for me. My review of the single stroller was the first video on my channel that got any substantial traction. I ended up returning mine because I really needed a telescopic handle bar. I didnt like how their handlebar required me to step closer into the stroller to have a comfortable arm position. My feet were constantly hitting that bar between the back wheels while I walked. I've never heard anyone else mention this feature though, so I that's why it's good to have a variety of reviews on youtube.
Oh wow, super interesting if that was an issue for you, that never happened to me before. But yes definitely that is why it is helpful to watch multiple reviews! Hoping you found another stroller that works better for you!
I hate my mockingbird. It was the biggest bust purchase. It worked ok with my first born but we bought the second seat kit for my second and it it so hard to push and it can’t go over small sidewalk bumps in chicago. I ordered my second kit when i was 5 months pregnant and I can’t return it because it was delivered more than 30 days ago. I guess I should have waited to order it until 30 days before my due date but I wanted to get it checked off my list. I honestly am so irritated with what a waste it is. I can’t even resell it because of the recall and none of the consignment shops will take it. I am so confused how it go so many positive reviews for people who have two kids.
Ahhh so sorry your experience was so bad! I will say bumpy Chicago sidewalks are NOT GOOD with this stroller. But now that I’m in the suburbs and smooth sidewalks it’s a whole other ball game. I’m still using my double WITH the third scooter attachment and overall still worth it for me! I wish everyone had a great experience but unfortunately that’s not the case.
Wow. Glad I watched this! I purchased the stroller a few weeks ago but I'm not using it until our third baby arrives. We will be using for the baby and our toddler. This was very informative and honest! Overall I think this will work for us and where we live/what we're using it for. Thank you ❤️
I'm 31 weeks with my first baby and I've been SO overwhelmed trying to choose a stroller + car seat / travel system? that isn't like $1500 but is still good quality, durable, and can grow with my family. TYSM for this video, I feel like you calmed me down and helped me settle on my choice. Definitely going with the Mockingbird, thank you!! Off to look and see if you have a car seat video
Thank you! I have been researching during my TTC journey and a lot of the higher price point strollers they seem to be aesthetics over function. Seems like the mockingbird is a better balance of both. Thank you for your videos!
I just binged all of your videos over the past month! So happy to be caught up. We don't have any kids yet but we're hoping to be blessed soon and I've really appreciated your channel! Thank you for all the work your put into these videos! They are so helpful!
I’m from Australia so I don’t have or won’t purchase this pram BUT I used the bassinet for my now 4MO as we didn’t have a capsule just a 0-4 year car seat. I loved the bassinet for my pram as it’s so good for naps while out and about or if they fall asleep in a walk you can just pop the pram in their room without needing to transfer and there’s no hassle of taking a car seat out of the car and buckling baby in just for a walk. My plan with baby #2 will be to get a capsule as it will be easier out and about but still use the bassinet for those tough naps and walks
Hi, I'd like know what the car seat you are using in the video is, because it seems like a basinet but I think it is a car seat that you can recline. Is it true? Thanks
has anyone else noticed the little pocket behind the seat?! we’ve had our mockingbird for 2 years now & my husband just noticed it! it’s the perfect little slot to hold your phone!
@@Nicolelelagreen Omg yes! I put my phone there in the pocket with baby music so my little guy has music while he relaxes. Or rain sounds/white noise for naps!
Hi! I didn’t hear you mention this in the review, but do the wheels squeak a lot if at all?? My previous stroller has this issue and I’m trying to get away from that ☺️
Nicole thank you sooo much for this video. One thing I love love love about this channel is that you actually LISTEN to your followers and it shows. Thanks for the review, I'll be purchasing, I think this would work great for our 2 month and 22 month old. God bless you and your family.
Could you do a review of the babybay?!? so glad to have found another mom who uses it, but still apprehensive about purchasing it and would love your thoughts on it!
I probably won’t do a dedicated review on it because I’ve talked about it and multiple other videos but if you’re asking for an update I seriously love the thing and I’m also going to be converting it to a full size soon so I’m sure that will be in an upcoming vlog as well!
I can’t tell you how much of a blessing this video was to find. My husband and I thought we were one and done for so long that we only purchased items for one child. Well late last year he felt God was placing baby fever upon his heart. So we decided to try and add to our family. I have been to stressed trying to find items for two kiddos that won’t break the bank and this video was so helpful. You even taking the time to record in the snow! Such a blessing! Thank you thank you
Hi! I made the same mistake and didn't plan for a double stroller knowing we'd wanted a 2nd child lol. I've been debating this stroller and I'm wondering how you feel about it after a year? Does your pros/cons list still hold up? I appreciate you addressed the minor issue of needing to lift the front seat to click in the car seat- a mom at my OB said she didn't like it bc it didn't fit and I got worried but your video makes it seem like its not that bad and I could handle it. Have you had any other spacing issues having the 2nd seat kit installed and wanting to recline one for the infant?
@@karensolis5669so far it’s been great! We have been going to parks every single day. I take the skateboard the most and get like 20 comments on it per day 😂 the wheels are legit skateboard wheels
Yeah most inline/tandem type double strollers are going to be noticeably harder to push once you add the second seat. A side by side double stroller like the Bugaboo donkey or the Baby Jogger side by side double will be easier to push; Or you could also try the double strollers that have the kids over each other (like the Nuna Demi Grow); The Demi Grow pushes better but you sacrifice basket space. Happy hunting!
We got a single stroller because it was less expensive, but I wish we had gotten a double. Now were going to have to get a new stroller and in the long run spend way more money
Honestly looking back I didn’t even cross my mind to get a double stroller at the time. I’m sure it’s some thing a lot of new moms don’t even consider and that’s why I’m hoping this will help somebody out there before hand
For rougher paths, it made not be the best because its quite compact. But for easy smoother surfaces I think it works well! I've also only had it for a short time since it just launched so I haven't been able to test it longer term yet...
We didn’t like this stroller unfortunately. I wanted to love it but with the car seat and toddler seat it felt extremely unsteady & like it was going to tip over on our neighborhood walks. I felt like I was fighting to keep it upright. Definitely keep in mind where / how you plan on using any inline double stroller. I will say mockingbird customer service was absolutely amazing and responsive! I wish we would have invested in the bugaboo donkey when we had our first child.
@@Nicolelelagreen this was a couple years ago but from memory they said something along the lines of assuring me that they design their strollers with safety in mind of course but understood my concerns and allowed me to return the stroller & all extra parts (car seat adapter & 2nd seat kit) for a refund.
@@nikkinikole7610 Their customer service is amaze balls! That’s definitely a reason I trust the company because they love to help and solve any issues that may arise. May I ask what are you using now for strolls?
@@relrel101 as of now we have the double Bob stroller and LOVE it for our neighborhood/ trail walks. But we just had baby #3 which makes for 3 kiddos 3 and under so we’re looking in to getting a stroller wagon, specifically the wonderfold w4.
