Stroller Wagons - Pros and Cons 

In order to keep our recommendations up to date, we maintain a 'Buyer's Guide' (with a wide spectrum of models, and a lot of technical and lifestyle-related information). Organizing our recommendations this way makes it easier to include good models that we haven't made review-videos for yet, as well as to remove models which have developed unforeseen wear-issues over time, or which have been weakened by the manufacturer in their current iterations. You can access the guide (in addition to our 4-part video series on Choosing the Right Stroller for your Lifestyle, and other helpful content), as well as contact us directly on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/stroller-buyers-37953864 These materials are also available via channel membership on RU-vid: www.youtube.com/@BarnevognverkstedNo/membership , and BuyMeaCoffee: buymeacoffee.com/thestrollerworkshop

We bought the creative outdoors wagon with shock absorption and love it. It’s our only stroller. My caveat is that we do not live in the city, I do not think babies should be left in car seats any longer than absolutely necessary, and thus I baby wear for the first 6-8 months, then plop them in the wagon. So far, naps have been in the wagon with something soft as a pillow, and when more than one kid wants a nap, the younger gets priority, then the older one takes a turn. The kids take turns pushing the wagon, they love to try pulling it too. The only downside I’ve felt is on longer walks: pushing a stroller wagon with its long wheelbase isn’t the best, and that is the only thing that the chariot beats out the wagon. But the chariot you can’t see your kids, they can’t see you, they must be strapped in, there’s almost zero room for daytripping stuff, and it would never fold down as small my my creative outdoors wagon - which is smaller than most double strollers and gets gate checked without question onto planes. Does it feel super solid? No. There is slop when driving it. The brakes are it’s worst downfall - they got dirty and seized up. But I wouldn’t trade it for any stroller or double stroller for any amount of money. Love it. You said several times “other than a few select models, stroller wagons have these and those problems”. I’d love to see a video from you comparing those quality select models! Please and thank you!

I loved this video. I am now ready for a chariot instead of a wagon. But I will wait for your next video on chariot comparisons to make my final selection. 😉

The Thule chariots are nice

Thanks for a great video as always! Just wondering when your video with the Dragonfly will be out? I personally don't think it will be that popular, after seeing it IRL 👎

We love our Thule Chariot Sport. We have the jogging kit and take it on long runs in our hilly neighborhood. The handbrake is essential for our use! Otherwise, you could probably get by with the regular Chariot. The Lite has no seat recline I think, and some other minor limitations. But the price is close enough to the regular one that I’m not sure who the Lite is for. Anyway, thanks for the helpful video. We had considered a wagon and feel happy with our choice to forego one!

looks like you could potentially use it a s little bit of a mobile playpen or cot? and it could be a go cart later on?

Hi! I got a stroller for our firstborn 6years ago and use it still now for our new baby, don't intend to buy a new one as it was really expensive, still works ok, and don't have any more room in or around the house to store. That said, I still Watch your vids all the time for information, couriosity, and to reconsider my decision. I really really like them, Good job!! Is It hard to become a stroller mechanic?!

Can you review the Kinderkraft All Road Stroller please?

We have the Wonderfold W4 Luxe and it's....okay. My parents bought it because they have 4 grandbabies under the age of 2.5 so it feels like the most logical way to transport them all together. My overall opinion is that it does *seem* fun but the kids aren't that comfortable in it and at least one kid asks to be taken out within the first 10 minutes. They can't nap in it, it's HUGE and bulky (can't travel with it whatsoever and the trunk size you need for it is *astronomical*), it doesn't have great storage, and just overall doesn't function like a stroller. In summary, it's a nice to have but really two double side by side strollers are a lot more useful and just more practical HOWEVER if you are supervising 4 little ones completely by yourself then it's ok for short (!!!) local trips.
