I can't believe the amount of stress picking a stroller wagon was for my husband and I. I was about to throw in the towel until I can upon your channel. I was surprised at how poor the two I was leaning towards scored in an area that was important to us. We went with the radio fly, still waiting to test it out. We also think the ability to pull the wagon on when off-roading will make it easier, especially when there's a parent to also push. Thanks so much for your extensive testing it really helped us so much!
Thank you Jenine. I go back and forth on how much stress product research is really worth. I remember spending a ridiculous amount of time choosing a chandelier for our dining room table once and then both of us thinking how it probably wouldn't have mattered. There is probably a balanced approach where you exercise wisdom but don't bow to anxiety. We try to keep these videos as short as possible and narrow it down to things that might make a difference to most people. I think you'll like the Radio Flyer. I kind of have a bias toward lightweight and low cost.
Heck yea! Instant sub! Out here doing the lords work for families! Thank you! Only request is, chop the video segments up to make it easier for us to find info on specific items.
Love your reviews and scoring system! We just got the Baby Trend Expedition and found it on sale! Our son loves it and the included accessories are great!!
I have the baby trend expedition wagon. I love it. I’ve taken it to the beaches in FL and SC as well as Seaworld and Disney Springs. My little one has so much room and I love that she can nap and the netting keeps bugs and the sun off her delicate skin
Have the Wonderfold W2 Luxe for almost a year and it’s been wonderful. Can’t recommend it enough. We mainly use it for transporting my kid to school and back and for weekend strolls to the nearby mall and playground. The pull handle is a must if you’re planning to use it on snowy and muddy terrains. One downside we found is how cumbersome it is to store in the trunk of our Sorento. As much as we want to use it as often as we’d like, we are limited in space so we are planning to buy the Veer Cruiser to complement it. Another thing to note on the WF: you would get a lot of compliments while using it. So if you’re an introvert like me, it may not be the perfect wagon for you. 😅
Awesome review! We plan on getting the Keenz XC+. We currently have the Jeep wagon and are working on selling it. We love the foot well to allow the kids feet to be relaxed. All the features are so great!
@@user-vb6ky1mo9e overall I love it! The few things that I don’t like, it takes time to het used to the steering, I’m only 4’9.75” and the handle bar is not adjustable.
Thank you Starr! I'm really pondering whether I want to spend the $849 for the Famileasy. I think it will test well against the Keenz. It's not yet available on Amazon.com, so it doesn't have the demand as most of the others yet. I'll probably eventually do it. Thanks for mentioning it and thanks for the feedback on the videos! We try to cram things in as quickly and usefully as possible.
This was amazingly helpful, thank you! I checked out some of the detailed videos and they were great too. Is it possible to do terrain tests on gravel and/or sand?
Thank you sooooo much for this video. Short and straight to the point. We actually bought 2 the baby trend and radio flyer convertible stroller wagon to try out. I will keep one and return the other one. Debating on what to keep and what to return.
Your videos really helped with my choosing process. I will be going with the Wonderfold wagon! We currently have the radio flyer, with our family growing and having children at different ages and different stages this is going to be more accommodating. I have a two-year-old on the go I have a friend’s child that I have Monday through Friday age 10 months. Also one on the way so this will be more accommodating with nap schedules on the go, safe place for a baby to sleep! I also love the longevity big kids can fit in it won’t be wasting my time getting a double stroller. We love our radio flyer so much I will be gifting it to a close friend of mine. Also for those that are looking into the Wonderfold wagon keep in mind Disney has band stroller wagons.(unless special accommodations are made when you enter the park or call ahead)
Thank you Anne! Yes, I bought a Larktale and ran it through all the same tests: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/ I really like it and it scored higher than I expected. Except for the folding glitch on the Anthem I love it too. They are different kinds of wagons, but both are high on my list and both scored very well in all the testing. The Anthem is definitely the better all-terrain wagon and the Larktale has nice features in the boxier shape. Very nice that it has a footwell if you want one.
Well, here's the honest answer. I would have to come up with another $1,000 and be convinced there are enough people interested in it and searching for it to make it worthwhile.
Out of the box, the Veer and Anthem. But if you are going to be at the beach a lot it would be better to have true sand wheels, like these offered by Jeep, which as far as I know, are NOT available for the other "stroller" wagons. There are a number of wagons (not stroller wagons) made specifically for the beach with really wide wheels. www.deltachildren.com/products/jeep-all-terrain-sand-wheels-for-stroller-wagons
Great video! How would you decide if you want a wagon or a stroller wagon? What do you think the biggest difference is? We primarily will use them for walks around the neighborhood, festivals, zoos and maybe a beach trip here and there 😊
Really good question that I don't have a great answer to. With the stroller-wagon you generally get 1) extra cost 2) a push handle 3) accessories like storage, canopy, cup holders 4) sometimes more comfortable seats, sometimes no different than a wagon. However, there is a lot of crossover these days, with some wagons including a push handlebar and even a canopy. It is usually easier to push than pull especially on leisurely walks. So you probably want a stroller wagon or wagon with a push handle for that. Having a canopy, as annoying as some of them are, is probably important for the kind of things you will be doing, so that points more to a stroller wagon or wagon with a canopy. The seats could go either way. Your kids might be just as content on the floor of a wagon and being able to move around more freely. And the accessories also have to do with preferences. Some wagons have some cubbies for drinks.
Probably one of the bigger ones with hanging seats like the Wonderfold W Eite or Luxe or Keenz 7S+ or XC series. The wagons with footwells probably won't be deep enough for longer legs. If it is just one child you could get one of the boxy wagons and let them sit on the floor like the Wonderfold, Keenz or Jeep. The Larktale works for bigger kids as well. The Veer and Anthem will work but their knees will be bent some especially as they continue to grow.
We have a baby due in two weeks and our 2.5 year old is a whopping 45 pounds. Any chance you can help me narrow down best options for a heavy kid and a newborn? Looking for basic walks, not a lot of rough terrain stuff. I watched the video, I'm just underslept and experiencing analysis paralysis
This has been really very helpful. I think after all this we will go with the radio flyer I had just skipped over it but it seems to be the best value. I wanted the ever advanced but build quality just looks to poor.
The Radio Flyer is definitely a great value. The Ever Advanced is hit and miss. It gets quite a few good customer reviews but even their customer service person acknowledged to me that they have quite a few problems to work out.
So glad I watched! Family of 6 with 5 yr old a set of twins turning 2 in the fall and a newborn 4 months. I almost bought the newest wonderfold but ended up going with the less expensive X4 due to reviews stating it being easier to push and pull. Waiting for it to arrive tomorrow super nervous hope it fits in my SUV
I don't think you'll have any trouble getting the X4 into your SUV. It is easier to manage than the other Wonderfolds. It is slightly wider but that provides more room on the inside and its folded size isn't bigger than the W series and it collapses more easily.
This video is very helpful! What’s your recommendation for beat maneuverability and lots of storage? Our stroller is getting harder and harder to push. It gets stuck easily and is very hard to turn. Looking into a wagon that’s good for all terrain and would be good for frequent visits to Silver Dollar City.
I love Silver Dollar City! The wagons with the most storage like the Jeep, Keenz and Wonderfolds are not the most maneuverable. The Anthem has a nice storage basket and is maneuverable and good for off-roading. Same for the Veer if you buy the extra basket. Neither of those have tons of storage. The Evenflo is very maneuverable but doesn't have a lot of storage beyond the one basket.
Thank you so much for your video. I have the evenflo wagon, and I'm looking to replace it for a bigger wagon, I hate it has almost no room on the botton part for the feet, I have two daughters and they are always stepping on each other, it is also very low so when I go walking to the park dogs are on my toddler's face level, plus if you try to pick up the pace just a bit it starts shaking so much.
Have you tried Evenflo Pivot Xplore Dreamz yet? I’m in between that one and the xplore. Not sure if there’s any differences except the bassinet insert. I can’t find a comparison video yet 😩
I haven't actually tested it and don't have a video. I had one, and besides the bassinet insert it has sun canopies that cover the whole wagon, which is different than the regular Xplore. That was the only other obvious difference although there may be other subtle things.
Do you have the jeep aries or radio flyer voya and larktale coupe or safety 1st summit reviewed ? Those are the ones I'm looking at and can't make a choice 😞
Hi Dana! I tested the Larktale and really like it, but didn't get it videoed in time to put it in this one. Here is the full review of the Larktale: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/
Thank you for the video. I'm leaning towards the keenz xc+ have a 5th child on the way main kids in stroller would be 35 & 40 lbs 2&3 year old with the baby. My question for you is this being a disabled vet with fibromyalgia degenerative disc's and lots of nerve issues how easy and well would it perform for me? It's not like I can test drive one then return for another to buy the one I like, so any insight you could give would be more than appreciated thank you again and great video
The Keenz XC+ is 54 lbs which is the size of our W4 Elite, and very similar configuration. I honestly think it could be a challenge for you if you don't have help. I clearly don't know the details of your capabilities but these big, higher-end wagons are pretty bulky and a little harder to move around than the equivalent weight in a more compact size. I think the pushing wouldn't be bad (even loaded with kids) if you stick to fairly smooth surfaces. But the loading, folding and unfolding might get to be a lot, depending on how often you think you would use it. There aren't many lightweight alternatives for 4 passenger wagons. The Wonderfold X4 has fewer bells and whistles but is roomy and much lighter at 41 lbs. It also folds easier and more compactly than the Keenz wagons and Wonderfold W4 series.
I have Small Fiber Neuropathy, POTS, frequent dislocations and other health issues similar to yours. The w4 Luxe is super easy for me to fold. A tad difficult to get in my suv due to weight. If I lean it against and my suv and lift from the bottom its much easier.
Hello, I am looking for something to take camping. I want to use it on gravel/grass/sand. I have 2 kiddos a 3 year old and a 9 month old. I want a decent amount of storage. Should I go with a larktale caravan, a larktale caravan coupe, or the anthem 4.
I would lean toward the Anthem because of the terrain. Also you could use the nap pad and zip up the canopy to keep mosquitos out. It isn't a perfect seat but its pretty close. The basket is pretty big, but you should have some extra room in the wagon itself for storage.
Excellent and concise review. This was very helpful. I have three children, a 4.5 year old, a 2.5 year old, and a newborn baby. Someone recommended the Baby Trend, which seems like a great budget choice, but I’m wondering the longevity I would get out of it with my oldest age. I love the stroller-like handlebar and push, parent console, and that everything we would need is included for a more affordable price, but the smaller wagon size and canopy- which I’m unsure how that would do much to help protect against sun or rain for even one child, and lack of all-terrain capability is a major concern. I would absolutely love a Veer XL with all of the accessories for its rugged durability, all terrain capabilities, easy cleaning, and being able to fit through a doorway, but I really don’t think I can justify the cost once everything adds up. Ultimately, I’m leaning heavily towards the Anthem 4 for all that it offers (I would buy the car seat adapter), but I wish there was a store to test drive it. My 4.5 year old is on the smaller side, but I am concerned if she will fit in there for long, especially since I’ve heard reports about the shorter canopies. The canopies on this wagon is a major draw for the sun, wind, rain, protection and privacy it offers for naps. I’m wondering if you have any feedback on these concerns and if you think this might be the right fit for us or if you’d recommend saving up for the Veer XL and accessories instead. Thank you!
I really like the Anthem. You are right the challenge with it is for bigger kids. The canopies are an issue but don't really seem to bother the kids too much when their heads bump. But their knees quickly get higher than the cup holders too. The 2 seater Anthem ends up being roomier for 2 than the 4-seater for 4 because they aren't that different in width. But all that said, the Anthem gives you a lot that the Veer does for a better price. The Baby Trend is a great price for what you get. It also has a mosquito net thing in addition to the canopy that provides a little bit of sun protection. We didn't rate it super high for a variety of reasons but the price helps.
@@KidTravel1 thank you so much for your reply. I’m currently saving up for the new Gladly Eclipse Anthem4 and hoping that’s the overall best choice with the new XXL canopies to allow for more headroom and the 5 point harness for added safety. The Veer City XL sounds amazing, but with everything the Gladly offers for a fraction of the price, I think it’s worth the shot. I hope to see an Eclipse Anthem4 review coming soon and maybe even comparing it to the Veer XL and their new City XL 😊
Have you reviewed the Safety 1st Summit Wagon yet? I was looking at the Baby Trend Expedition Plus but came across the Safety 1st, which seems quite similar but with some interesting features (like a footwell that zips to create a flat inner surface…so sort of a combo between the stroller and wagon types. I’d be really curious about your review, especially how it compares to the Baby Trend!
I like it. The extra storage compartments and cup holders inside are great as well as the big bag. The raised canopy provides more headroom than the discovery but not as much sun coverage and is harder to take on and off. The Traveler doesn't have the one reclining seat, which may or may not be a big deal. Its about 5 lbs heavier than the Discovery.
Hi Rachel, You might like our Wagon in a Rainstorm video ua-cam.com/video/9psCEwD8V2I/v-deo.html 😂 for amusement only. The Anthem's canopies work well in the rain. The Larktale (not in that video) comes with a rain cover if you buy the version with canopies. Veer, Wonderfold, Keenz, Jeep, all have rain covers available for separate purchase. I'm not sure about the Evenflo, Baby Trend, Graco. There are some generic rain covers that may work for those wagons that are more like strollers.
Hi Noel, I just tried to research the size of the Trax cargo area and couldn’t find the width. I added the folded dimensions of all the wagons to a table in this article. kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs So hopefully that will help you figure it out!
The features I am looking for are stroller like maneuverability, easy to fold us into a SVU, storage and adequate sunshade, which stroller wagon would work best for me
A few things. A hanging parent organizer, and cup holder (not sure if this fits the Discovery). For the other Radio Flyer wagons that have a canopy on posts, there is a mosquito net and rain cover. www.radioflyer.com/shop/accessories.html
Whaty happened to the Joymor 😢 i was hoping to see it on this list. I just purchased it and getting it this Wednesday buty i cant seem to find many videos on it. Im hoping it was a good buy.
I have the Wonderfold W4 and those seats are about an inch and a half too wide to fit in the Jeep. I didn't try it but I feel like the hooks that go over the frame would probably work on the Jeep. The Wonderfold W2 seats would probably fit in the Jeep (but I can't guarantee it) and I don't have Keenz seats to look at.
None of them handle medium or large gravel well. Smaller, packed gravel and mulch is possible. The Anthem 2 is less expensive than the Veer and does well on tough terrain, but still expensive. For lower cost than that, although the Evenflo doesn't have the biggest wheels, it seems to do fairly well over bumpy terrain and the seats are cushy.
The evenflo pivot explore handled pretty well all things considered with our children on all terrains. Gravel was the toughest but it flowed through everything else very well
The Veer handle extends out to 42” which is a pretty decent height. We are reviewing lightweight strollers now and only two out of twenty have handles over 39”. I choose whichever one my grandkids insist on 😂
I only have 1 toddler (and no plans to add another) so I am happy as long as there's a seatbelt. I am wondering what you will recommend for snow and slush? I have a hard time pushing our stroller coz we keep getting stuck. Thank you!
Hey Crystal, the Veer and Anthem with big wheels up front are probably the best bet on snowy sidewalks. They both have seatbelts which are 3-point harnesses.
Looks like it is available in Canada but I'm not seeing any reviews on this one: www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BZTBSHQC/?tag=kidtravelorg-20 I wonder if not too many have been sold there for some reason. Same for the Anthem 2.
Which would you choose for a person who has bigger kids? I won’t be going off roading but would drag it around the zoo, fairs, just in normal walks. Jeep? Pivot?
Thanks for letting me know you are interested in the Hercules. The reviews are a little lower than the wagons we've tested so far, which is why we haven't bought one yet. But a couple people have asked so we may end up doing. Thanks again!
Do kids have trouble sleeping in them? I can’t decide between a side by side umbrella stroller (like the zoe) or a stroller wagon. My girls are 2 and 3
I honestly have mixed feelings about whether it is easier to sleep in the wagons vs strollers. Some wagons have a bumpier ride than some strollers. It depends on which ones you are comparing.
We have the 4 seater wonderful wangon It has a lot storage but everything is sold separately which we have purchased smh lol even the wind cover its heavy taking it in and out my truck but I really like it I don't the sun cover at all they could do way better on that I feel like since I've spent so much I can't turn back now 😂😂 but I've also had the red and black wagon gave it my sister but I love all the wagons 😊
It didn’t make the video but I did thorough testing on it shown here kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/ and I really like it
Are you able to fit the Baby Trend Expedition in your Civic if you take the wheels off? I believe the front and rear wheels are supposed to come off "easily" for the Plus version. (It's a little confusing how the manufacturer words it, but I believe both front and rear wheels can come off for the Plus version specifically). Also any insight on tandem strollers? I've been looking at the Graco and Baby Trend sit n stand double strollers or possibly a stroller wagon. A stroller wagon won't do me much good though if it can't fit in a car trunk! Thanks for the review.
Yes, with the wheels off I can get it in the trunk of the Civic. I have the Plus version. The rear wheels come off easily by pressing a wide silver button. The front wheels come off by pressing a narrow metal tab. You have to press hard to get it all the way in and it hurts your finger to press it hard enough. You can push it with a screwdriver or something hard. I don't have enough direct experience with those tandem strollers to offer an opinion.
my main problem with these is the wheels cracking and not having replacement parts. I am a daily user with 2 toddlers, and the wheels fall apart after about 4 months. I'm about to buy a heavy duty garden wagon and add seatbelts to it.
Best one for flight/airport travel? I have a 5 y/o and 18m old - traveling overseas but want a stroller/wagon better suited for and older child too so we have more time to use it after travel. All terrain wheels are a pleasant bonus.
Probably the Veer since wagons will need to be checked and risk taking a beating. Its seats accommodate up to 55 lbs and it does the off-roading part well. amzn.to/41jL2Z4 For versatility in travel the Zoe tandem is nice because you can take it out as a single stroller or tandem (double) and it is lightweight and folds compactly. zoebaby.com/collections/doubles/products/zoe-tandem-stroller?variant=31006188994594
You're welcome! I rarely pull it. It will do both, but pushing is more ergonomic. That said, the swivel wheels in the back take some getting used to when you push, especially figuring out how to turn at the right time, but your brain eventually reconfigures itself 😂
I really wanted the Jeep one the gray one, but after this idk how well it will fit in our car (we have a hatchback) so we might have to go for the baby trend. Thanks for this, very helpful!
We have the Jeep wrangler and like it. We couldn’t afford the keenz or wonderfold so we were okay with a few compromises. We thankfully have a ford explorer so we have a pretty large trunk space. I wish we could’ve afforded higher end but I feel it’s a great wagon for the price.
Even if you had been able to afford one of the other ones, it is often wise to save those extra dollars for more important things, so I applaud you for that. The Jeep has lots of room and extra accessories for a low price!
@@KidTravel1 oh absolutely! The Jeep was on sale. We did the car seat trade in at target and saved A LOT on the wagon and a car seat. Great deals there for the next week ish
Weight of the whole stroller, as putting into a van is difficult. I'm 4' 10". 60lbs for the wonderfold wagon is way too much. Definitely need to do some research. I'm due with my 3rd in June 2023.
Our article has a table with the weights of all of them here: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/?swcfpc=1#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs 60 lbs is such a disincentive. Who's going to want to lift that more than once or twice a year?
I still have all of them. We use them with grandkids and its nice when new wagons come out to be able to compare them side by side. Someday I'm sure I'll have to start getting rid of things. Right now I have more than 30 strollers and wagons!
Hi Emily, I don't actually have the W4 Luxe but the functional differences from the W4 Elite are: - bigger wheel size in both the front and back - 5 lbs heavier - magnetic buckles - vegan leather handle So I think the bigger wheels will make it perform better than Elite in steering and maneuverability and make it better on the grass. This will be offset slightly by the extra weight (it is 63 lbs with nothing in it). The weight / size will make it harder to fold and get in and out of a van. The magnetic buckles are a cool upgrade because buckles are such a pain.
I wish I had found this video before FINALLY making my purchase. I had been going through numerous videos and websites to pin down what stroller/wagon I would get for my 2 grandchildren. I HAD to look into weight limits as my older granddaughter has a tendency to walk off when she isnt fussing to be carried. It would be nice to include weight limits as it might be a concern for some people like me 😊. I am going back to review the other videos just to see if I made the right choice. Oh and if you could possibly include info on the height of the handles. I'm 5'8 with long arms and a lot of these looked like I would be bending over to push (arms being in an awkward position if that makes sense).
Thank you! We have a lot of that info in a table here: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs Including the range in height of the handles, the weight limits and much more. Very difficult to put all of that in a video especially when one of our goals is to have very short videos!
What is with all these handle bars that are so low and hard to reach..who wants to be hunched over trying to push and reach? They need to make adjustable extendable push and pull bars.
@@KidTravel1 we just got the wonderfold 4 seater and now looking at the photos online you can see that the people are having to hunch down or bend over even with the added pull handle they have to like bend and reach down. Ugh. I don't know what to do. Going to have to watch this video thoroughly and some of the individual ones and make a well informed decision. It's difficult if you have carpal tunnel or have a big pregnant belly in way and can't reach or if you have a baby strapped to chest.
Very sturdy in comparison to other strollers that we had. I get a lot of compliments for it. My baby loves being in the bassinet, The ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx4qZutfp1y5CaTUcMTuFPbARE5u-8XLiE stroller comfortable. I like the rain cover and the white net that comes with it. I use the rain cover just to cover the car seat when it rains. If your front wheels don't turn well, make sure you lubricate.
Most don't do well in the sand. The Veer and Anthem are ok. In general even those with wheels they say are made for sand are very difficult to pull in soft sand, but some of them do ok on hard packed sand.
I can't believe the amount of stress picking a stroller wagon was for my husband and I. I was about to throw in the towel until I can upon your channel. I was surprised at how poor the two I was leaning towards scored in an area that was important to us. We went with the radio fly, still waiting to test it out.

Do u like your wagon
Heck yea! Instant sub! Out here doing the lords work for families! Thank you!
Only request is, chop the video segments up to make it easier for us to find info on specific items.
Great suggestion, thanks!
Great stuff! Glad to see my limited research is almost on par with your findings. This just gives me more info to present to the wife. Thank you
Love your reviews and scoring system! We just got the Baby Trend Expedition and found it on sale! Our son loves it and the included accessories are great!!
Thank you, that's great! I like how easy it is to fold and the storage bin and snack tray.
I have the baby trend expedition wagon. I love it. I’ve taken it to the beaches in FL and SC as well as Seaworld and Disney Springs. My little one has so much room and I love that she can nap and the netting keeps bugs and the sun off her delicate skin
That's awesome. Its really the only one with that kind of netting.
This an extremely helpful video! In depth but not to long! Wonderful
Thank you!
Have the Wonderfold W2 Luxe for almost a year and it’s been wonderful. Can’t recommend it enough. We mainly use it for transporting my kid to school and back and for weekend strolls to the nearby mall and playground. The pull handle is a must if you’re planning to use it on snowy and muddy terrains. One downside we found is how cumbersome it is to store in the trunk of our Sorento. As much as we want to use it as often as we’d like, we are limited in space so we are planning to buy the Veer Cruiser to complement it.
Another thing to note on the WF: you would get a lot of compliments while using it. So if you’re an introvert like me, it may not be the perfect wagon for you. 😅
That's funny! I think you'll get lots of compliments on the Veer too.
I just bought the jeep yesterday. It's still in the box and I'm having second thoughts thanks to your high quality review 😆
Let me know if there is anything specific I might be able to comment on.
Awesome review! We plan on getting the Keenz XC+. We currently have the Jeep wagon and are working on selling it. We love the foot well to allow the kids feet to be relaxed. All the features are so great!
It comes with lots of cool stuff!
What are you getting instead
I got the Wonderfold W4 Luxe and I absolutely love it and love customizing it add ons so it really works for us.
Excellent! Thanks for chiming in!
Great video, helps a lot!! Would like to see size comparison in the future.
Thank you, got it!
Thank you for your amazing reviews! I bought the Anthem 4 with car seat adapter for my 2 year old and my 1 month old. And I’m in love with it!
Oh!! Thanks so much for letting me know!
How have you liked it?
@@user-vb6ky1mo9e overall I love it! The few things that I don’t like, it takes time to het used to the steering, I’m only 4’9.75” and the handle bar is not adjustable.
Excellent review! Very efficient (time) and detailed review with data. I left knowing what specs were most important to me. Thanks for your content!
My pleasure!
Thank you for a genuine review.
Thanks for the video. Short and straight to the point. I'm convinced by the Veer, something lightweight, compatible and steer good.
I think you'll love it
You video was so much more helpful than the lengthy ones here on UA-cam. Could you do a comparison with the 4 seater Keenz and famileasy brands?
Thank you Starr! I'm really pondering whether I want to spend the $849 for the Famileasy. I think it will test well against the Keenz. It's not yet available on Amazon.com, so it doesn't have the demand as most of the others yet. I'll probably eventually do it. Thanks for mentioning it and thanks for the feedback on the videos! We try to cram things in as quickly and usefully as possible.
Thank you for the great review.
Thank you!
Thank you for this video, as a new dad this was super helpful
Excellent! Good luck.
Thanks for this awesome breakdown. We just bought the Familyeasy Living. It’s basically the Keenz XC+ and Wonderfold Luxe hybrid. Best of both worlds
Thanks @andi! The Famileasy is another one I really need to get and test sometime.
This was amazingly helpful, thank you! I checked out some of the detailed videos and they were great too. Is it possible to do terrain tests on gravel and/or sand?
Thank you! Yes I do plan to do sand at least and hasn’t considered anything formal with gravel.
Thank you sooooo much for this video. Short and straight to the point. We actually bought 2 the baby trend and radio flyer convertible stroller wagon to try out. I will keep one and return the other one. Debating on what to keep and what to return.
That's really interesting! Hope you have some warm weather to be able to try them both out.
Which one did you end up keeping? Were the children able to nap in the wagon?
amazing reviews ty!
Between Wonderfold w1 and baby trend expedition plus, which one do you recommend more?
Your videos really helped with my choosing process. I will be going with the Wonderfold wagon! We currently have the radio flyer, with our family growing and having children at different ages and different stages this is going to be more accommodating. I have a two-year-old on the go I have a friend’s child that I have Monday through Friday age 10 months. Also one on the way so this will be more accommodating with nap schedules on the go, safe place for a baby to sleep! I also love the longevity big kids can fit in it won’t be wasting my time getting a double stroller. We love our radio flyer so much I will be gifting it to a close friend of mine. Also for those that are looking into the Wonderfold wagon keep in mind Disney has band stroller wagons.(unless special accommodations are made when you enter the park or call ahead)
Awesome Megan and congratulations on the one on the way!!
I have the Wonderfold with the large wheel option, It goes over everything effortlessly.
I'm going to have to try out the large wheels sometime.
Great videos! Have you tried the larktale? I’m torn between that and the anthem 4 and can’t find much to compare the two.
Thank you Anne! Yes, I bought a Larktale and ran it through all the same tests: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/
I really like it and it scored higher than I expected. Except for the folding glitch on the Anthem I love it too. They are different kinds of wagons, but both are high on my list and both scored very well in all the testing. The Anthem is definitely the better all-terrain wagon and the Larktale has nice features in the boxier shape. Very nice that it has a footwell if you want one.
Thank you for this video! Could you be able to make a review for Pronto Squared stroller? I can't see that in your channel.
Well, here's the honest answer. I would have to come up with another $1,000 and be convinced there are enough people interested in it and searching for it to make it worthwhile.
Thank you
Thanks for the info! Do you know which would be best to take to the beach often?
Out of the box, the Veer and Anthem. But if you are going to be at the beach a lot it would be better to have true sand wheels, like these offered by Jeep, which as far as I know, are NOT available for the other "stroller" wagons. There are a number of wagons (not stroller wagons) made specifically for the beach with really wide wheels.
www.deltachildren.com/products/jeep-all-terrain-sand-wheels-for-stroller-wagons
Great video! How would you decide if you want a wagon or a stroller wagon? What do you think the biggest difference is? We primarily will use them for walks around the neighborhood, festivals, zoos and maybe a beach trip here and there 😊
Really good question that I don't have a great answer to. With the stroller-wagon you generally get 1) extra cost 2) a push handle 3) accessories like storage, canopy, cup holders 4) sometimes more comfortable seats, sometimes no different than a wagon. However, there is a lot of crossover these days, with some wagons including a push handlebar and even a canopy.
It is usually easier to push than pull especially on leisurely walks. So you probably want a stroller wagon or wagon with a push handle for that.
Having a canopy, as annoying as some of them are, is probably important for the kind of things you will be doing, so that points more to a stroller wagon or wagon with a canopy.
The seats could go either way. Your kids might be just as content on the floor of a wagon and being able to move around more freely.
And the accessories also have to do with preferences. Some wagons have some cubbies for drinks.
I love my Larktale wagon! I have been using it for a few years now for my, 4, 3 and 1 year old
I like the Larktale too. We have an article about it on KidTravel.org but it didn't make it into the video
Great review! Will you be reviewing the radio wagon voya?
I guess I should! Seems to have some nice features.
The new Graco is great!
Thanks for the videos ! what Wagon would you suggest for a 4 year old ?
Probably one of the bigger ones with hanging seats like the Wonderfold W Eite or Luxe or Keenz 7S+ or XC series. The wagons with footwells probably won't be deep enough for longer legs. If it is just one child you could get one of the boxy wagons and let them sit on the floor like the Wonderfold, Keenz or Jeep. The Larktale works for bigger kids as well. The Veer and Anthem will work but their knees will be bent some especially as they continue to grow.
We have a baby due in two weeks and our 2.5 year old is a whopping 45 pounds. Any chance you can help me narrow down best options for a heavy kid and a newborn? Looking for basic walks, not a lot of rough terrain stuff.
I watched the video, I'm just underslept and experiencing analysis paralysis
This has been really very helpful. I think after all this we will go with the radio flyer I had just skipped over it but it seems to be the best value.
I wanted the ever advanced but build quality just looks to poor.
The Radio Flyer is definitely a great value. The Ever Advanced is hit and miss. It gets quite a few good customer reviews but even their customer service person acknowledged to me that they have quite a few problems to work out.
I wish the Keenz XC was more covered as in what it comes with and a demonstration how it performs.
More work to do!
So glad I watched! Family of 6 with 5 yr old a set of twins turning 2 in the fall and a newborn 4 months. I almost bought the newest wonderfold but ended up going with the less expensive X4 due to reviews stating it being easier to push and pull. Waiting for it to arrive tomorrow super nervous hope it fits in my SUV
I don't think you'll have any trouble getting the X4 into your SUV. It is easier to manage than the other Wonderfolds. It is slightly wider but that provides more room on the inside and its folded size isn't bigger than the W series and it collapses more easily.
@@KidTravel1 excellent! Thank you again for the info!
Hi have you tried the babygap wagon?? I’m intrigued. I have a radio flyer but want to know if I should upgrade
No I haven’t! Just did this one but no video yet. kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/ever-advanced-side-unzip-stroller-wagon-review/
This video is very helpful! What’s your recommendation for beat maneuverability and lots of storage? Our stroller is getting harder and harder to push. It gets stuck easily and is very hard to turn. Looking into a wagon that’s good for all terrain and would be good for frequent visits to Silver Dollar City.
I love Silver Dollar City! The wagons with the most storage like the Jeep, Keenz and Wonderfolds are not the most maneuverable. The Anthem has a nice storage basket and is maneuverable and good for off-roading. Same for the Veer if you buy the extra basket. Neither of those have tons of storage. The Evenflo is very maneuverable but doesn't have a lot of storage beyond the one basket.
@@KidTravel1 thank you for your help!!
The Wonderfold W4 Luxe has much better maneuverability than the Elite. Well worth the extra price.
@@moorenlacy I like the big wheels on the Luxe!
Thank you so much for your video. I have the evenflo wagon, and I'm looking to replace it for a bigger wagon, I hate it has almost no room on the botton part for the feet, I have two daughters and they are always stepping on each other, it is also very low so when I go walking to the park dogs are on my toddler's face level, plus if you try to pick up the pace just a bit it starts shaking so much.
The footwell is really small. I haven't noticed the shaking. Which ones are you considering?
Have you tried Evenflo Pivot Xplore Dreamz yet? I’m in between that one and the xplore. Not sure if there’s any differences except the bassinet insert. I can’t find a comparison video yet 😩
I haven't actually tested it and don't have a video. I had one, and besides the bassinet insert it has sun canopies that cover the whole wagon, which is different than the regular Xplore. That was the only other obvious difference although there may be other subtle things.
Do you have the jeep aries or radio flyer voya and larktale coupe or safety 1st summit reviewed ? Those are the ones I'm looking at and can't make a choice 😞
We have an article about the Larktale on KidTravel.org
Great video although I wish the LarkTale wagon was part of the review too!
Hi Dana! I tested the Larktale and really like it, but didn't get it videoed in time to put it in this one. Here is the full review of the Larktale:
kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/
Thank you for the video. I'm leaning towards the keenz xc+ have a 5th child on the way main kids in stroller would be 35 & 40 lbs 2&3 year old with the baby. My question for you is this being a disabled vet with fibromyalgia degenerative disc's and lots of nerve issues how easy and well would it perform for me? It's not like I can test drive one then return for another to buy the one I like, so any insight you could give would be more than appreciated thank you again and great video
The Keenz XC+ is 54 lbs which is the size of our W4 Elite, and very similar configuration. I honestly think it could be a challenge for you if you don't have help. I clearly don't know the details of your capabilities but these big, higher-end wagons are pretty bulky and a little harder to move around than the equivalent weight in a more compact size. I think the pushing wouldn't be bad (even loaded with kids) if you stick to fairly smooth surfaces. But the loading, folding and unfolding might get to be a lot, depending on how often you think you would use it.
There aren't many lightweight alternatives for 4 passenger wagons. The Wonderfold X4 has fewer bells and whistles but is roomy and much lighter at 41 lbs. It also folds easier and more compactly than the Keenz wagons and Wonderfold W4 series.
Thank you I will look into it more
I have Small Fiber Neuropathy, POTS, frequent dislocations and other health issues similar to yours. The w4 Luxe is super easy for me to fold. A tad difficult to get in my suv due to weight. If I lean it against and my suv and lift from the bottom its much easier.
Hello, I am looking for something to take camping. I want to use it on gravel/grass/sand. I have 2 kiddos a 3 year old and a 9 month old. I want a decent amount of storage. Should I go with a larktale caravan, a larktale caravan coupe, or the anthem 4.
I would lean toward the Anthem because of the terrain. Also you could use the nap pad and zip up the canopy to keep mosquitos out. It isn't a perfect seat but its pretty close. The basket is pretty big, but you should have some extra room in the wagon itself for storage.
Hi, which one will you recomend. I have twins 3 years old and have a honda crv. There is not much space in the back
The Graco Modes Adventure, Ever Advanced Side-Unzip and Radio Flyer are the smallest when folded. The first two would be fine for 3 year olds.
Excellent and concise review. This was very helpful. I have three children, a 4.5 year old, a 2.5 year old, and a newborn baby. Someone recommended the Baby Trend, which seems like a great budget choice, but I’m wondering the longevity I would get out of it with my oldest age. I love the stroller-like handlebar and push, parent console, and that everything we would need is included for a more affordable price, but the smaller wagon size and canopy- which I’m unsure how that would do much to help protect against sun or rain for even one child, and lack of all-terrain capability is a major concern.
I would absolutely love a Veer XL with all of the accessories for its rugged durability, all terrain capabilities, easy cleaning, and being able to fit through a doorway, but I really don’t think I can justify the cost once everything adds up.
Ultimately, I’m leaning heavily towards the Anthem 4 for all that it offers (I would buy the car seat adapter), but I wish there was a store to test drive it. My 4.5 year old is on the smaller side, but I am concerned if she will fit in there for long, especially since I’ve heard reports about the shorter canopies. The canopies on this wagon is a major draw for the sun, wind, rain, protection and privacy it offers for naps. I’m wondering if you have any feedback on these concerns and if you think this might be the right fit for us or if you’d recommend saving up for the Veer XL and accessories instead. Thank you!
I really like the Anthem. You are right the challenge with it is for bigger kids. The canopies are an issue but don't really seem to bother the kids too much when their heads bump. But their knees quickly get higher than the cup holders too. The 2 seater Anthem ends up being roomier for 2 than the 4-seater for 4 because they aren't that different in width. But all that said, the Anthem gives you a lot that the Veer does for a better price.
The Baby Trend is a great price for what you get. It also has a mosquito net thing in addition to the canopy that provides a little bit of sun protection. We didn't rate it super high for a variety of reasons but the price helps.
@@KidTravel1 thank you so much for your reply. I’m currently saving up for the new Gladly Eclipse Anthem4 and hoping that’s the overall best choice with the new XXL canopies to allow for more headroom and the 5 point harness for added safety. The Veer City XL sounds amazing, but with everything the Gladly offers for a fraction of the price, I think it’s worth the shot. I hope to see an Eclipse Anthem4 review coming soon and maybe even comparing it to the Veer XL and their new City XL 😊
Have you reviewed the Safety 1st Summit Wagon yet? I was looking at the Baby Trend Expedition Plus but came across the Safety 1st, which seems quite similar but with some interesting features (like a footwell that zips to create a flat inner surface…so sort of a combo between the stroller and wagon types. I’d be really curious about your review, especially how it compares to the Baby Trend!
Sounds like a good one. Not sure when I will get to it.
What do you think of the radio flyer traveler? Thanks
I like it. The extra storage compartments and cup holders inside are great as well as the big bag. The raised canopy provides more headroom than the discovery but not as much sun coverage and is harder to take on and off. The Traveler doesn't have the one reclining seat, which may or may not be a big deal. Its about 5 lbs heavier than the Discovery.
Question! Which of these have rain covers? We're in the PNW and if it isn't waterproof... it's useless! Thank you - great reviews 👍
Hi Rachel,
You might like our Wagon in a Rainstorm video ua-cam.com/video/9psCEwD8V2I/v-deo.html 😂 for amusement only.
The Anthem's canopies work well in the rain.
The Larktale (not in that video) comes with a rain cover if you buy the version with canopies.
Veer, Wonderfold, Keenz, Jeep, all have rain covers available for separate purchase.
I'm not sure about the Evenflo, Baby Trend, Graco. There are some generic rain covers that may work for those wagons that are more like strollers.
I have a Chevy Trax and am trying to figure out which option (if any) will fit in my trunk
Hi Noel, I just tried to research the size of the Trax cargo area and couldn’t find the width. I added the folded dimensions of all the wagons to a table in this article. kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs
So hopefully that will help you figure it out!
The features I am looking for are stroller like maneuverability, easy to fold us into a SVU, storage and adequate sunshade, which stroller wagon would work best for me
The Evenflo Xplore for a stroller-like option
I’d never heard of the gladly… seems to have all the components I wanted without being massive
Yes, I like it!
Thanks for the video. The Veer or Anthem seem like a good choice for us at the moment.
I think you'll be very happy with either of those!
Did you end up buying the Anthem or the Veer? Those are my top choices, as well. I’m interested in your experience and feedback.
Are there any accessories for the radio flyer discovery?
A few things. A hanging parent organizer, and cup holder (not sure if this fits the Discovery). For the other Radio Flyer wagons that have a canopy on posts, there is a mosquito net and rain cover. www.radioflyer.com/shop/accessories.html
Whaty happened to the Joymor 😢 i was hoping to see it on this list. I just purchased it and getting it this Wednesday buty i cant seem to find many videos on it. Im hoping it was a good buy.
I'm sure you'll love it! Can't beat the price. Let me know whether you like it.
Would the detachable seats from either the wonderfold or the 4-seater jeep fit in any other brand models as a mix and match?
I have the Wonderfold W4 and those seats are about an inch and a half too wide to fit in the Jeep. I didn't try it but I feel like the hooks that go over the frame would probably work on the Jeep. The Wonderfold W2 seats would probably fit in the Jeep (but I can't guarantee it) and I don't have Keenz seats to look at.
@@KidTravel1 thanks! That’s helpful since I can’t find any in-person models to try it on.
I need a stroller that can handle mulch trails … I shy away from the Veer cause $$. Any of the budgets models handle mulch and gravel okay?
None of them handle medium or large gravel well. Smaller, packed gravel and mulch is possible.
The Anthem 2 is less expensive than the Veer and does well on tough terrain, but still expensive.
For lower cost than that, although the Evenflo doesn't have the biggest wheels, it seems to do fairly well over bumpy terrain and the seats are cushy.
The evenflo pivot explore handled pretty well all things considered with our children on all terrains. Gravel was the toughest but it flowed through everything else very well
It doesnt look like any have extendable push bar, just pivots diff angles. What do you choose?
The Veer handle extends out to 42” which is a pretty decent height. We are reviewing lightweight strollers now and only two out of twenty have handles over 39”.
I choose whichever one my grandkids insist on 😂
I love this video but I wish the radio flyer voya was included
Sorry about that! There are so many Radio Flyers now
I only have 1 toddler (and no plans to add another) so I am happy as long as there's a seatbelt. I am wondering what you will recommend for snow and slush? I have a hard time pushing our stroller coz we keep getting stuck. Thank you!
Hey Crystal, the Veer and Anthem with big wheels up front are probably the best bet on snowy sidewalks. They both have seatbelts which are 3-point harnesses.
@@KidTravel1 thank you so much for replying! I will check those out if they are available here in Canada 😊
Looks like it is available in Canada but I'm not seeing any reviews on this one: www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BZTBSHQC/?tag=kidtravelorg-20 I wonder if not too many have been sold there for some reason. Same for the Anthem 2.
Great info, now l just need a baby, hopefully babies😊
Girl, get out there and enjoy your pre-baby life :)
Which would you choose for a person who has bigger kids? I won’t be going off roading but would drag it around the zoo, fairs, just in normal walks.
Jeep? Pivot?
How many kids and what ages? Any budget?
Could you do a review on the Hercules stroller wagon?
Thanks for letting me know you are interested in the Hercules. The reviews are a little lower than the wagons we've tested so far, which is why we haven't bought one yet. But a couple people have asked so we may end up doing. Thanks again!
Do kids have trouble sleeping in them? I can’t decide between a side by side umbrella stroller (like the zoe) or a stroller wagon. My girls are 2 and 3
I honestly have mixed feelings about whether it is easier to sleep in the wagons vs strollers. Some wagons have a bumpier ride than some strollers. It depends on which ones you are comparing.
I'm interested in the Larktale, but didn't see a review for it.
The Larktale is on our list to review!
We have the 4 seater wonderful wangon It has a lot storage but everything is sold separately which we have purchased smh lol even the wind cover its heavy taking it in and out my truck but I really like it I don't the sun cover at all they could do way better on that I feel like since I've spent so much I can't turn back now 😂😂 but I've also had the red and black wagon gave it my sister but I love all the wagons 😊
" I feel like since I've spent so much I can't turn back now " 😂
Is there a reason you didn’t include any Larktale models? They really appear to be great but would love your opinion and comparison.
It didn’t make the video but I did thorough testing on it shown here kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/ and I really like it
Have you tried pushing the jeep wagon with the larger wheels in front instead. This should be easier to go over bumpy terrains
Hi Ryan, yes we have. Definitely works better.
Wish you had reviewed the keenz 4 seater XC+
I don't have one yet!
Does the keenz 7s seats recline?
The Keenz 7 s original doesn’t have seats at all. The Keenz 7s+ has seats and they recline.
Are you able to fit the Baby Trend Expedition in your Civic if you take the wheels off? I believe the front and rear wheels are supposed to come off "easily" for the Plus version. (It's a little confusing how the manufacturer words it, but I believe both front and rear wheels can come off for the Plus version specifically).
Also any insight on tandem strollers? I've been looking at the Graco and Baby Trend sit n stand double strollers or possibly a stroller wagon. A stroller wagon won't do me much good though if it can't fit in a car trunk! Thanks for the review.
Yes, with the wheels off I can get it in the trunk of the Civic. I have the Plus version. The rear wheels come off easily by pressing a wide silver button. The front wheels come off by pressing a narrow metal tab. You have to press hard to get it all the way in and it hurts your finger to press it hard enough. You can push it with a screwdriver or something hard.
I don't have enough direct experience with those tandem strollers to offer an opinion.
@@KidTravel1 thank you, that helps a lot! I was able to find the baby trend wagon review on your channel and that helped to get a visual also.
Can you review the Pronto Squared?
Honestly I can’t afford it at the moment.
my main problem with these is the wheels cracking and not having replacement parts. I am a daily user with 2 toddlers, and the wheels fall apart after about 4 months. I'm about to buy a heavy duty garden wagon and add seatbelts to it.
Which one or ones do you have?
@@KidTravel1 most of these are not available in europe, but we have similar ones with different brands. fuxtec, kesser, etc
Do younhave access to Fuxtec CTXL 900? The best! But pricey. From Germany
No unfortunately not
Babytrend it is!
Excellent! Hope you enjoy it.
where did you buy the radio flyer wagon?
Walmart online, but I'm not sure if this model is available anymore.
Thanks!!!😊 🙏🏼
Best one for flight/airport travel? I have a 5 y/o and 18m old - traveling overseas but want a stroller/wagon better suited for and older child too so we have more time to use it after travel. All terrain wheels are a pleasant bonus.
Probably the Veer since wagons will need to be checked and risk taking a beating. Its seats accommodate up to 55 lbs and it does the off-roading part well. amzn.to/41jL2Z4 For versatility in travel the Zoe tandem is nice because you can take it out as a single stroller or tandem (double) and it is lightweight and folds compactly. zoebaby.com/collections/doubles/products/zoe-tandem-stroller?variant=31006188994594
@@KidTravel1 thank you! Do you think that if I want to push more than pull that the veer would be less likely the one for me?
You're welcome! I rarely pull it. It will do both, but pushing is more ergonomic. That said, the swivel wheels in the back take some getting used to when you push, especially figuring out how to turn at the right time, but your brain eventually reconfigures itself 😂
@@KidTravel1 haha that sounds like his high chair then. I have to put a lot of thought into it but I get it eventually! Thank you.
I really wanted the Jeep one the gray one, but after this idk how well it will fit in our car (we have a hatchback) so we might have to go for the baby trend. Thanks for this, very helpful!
The Baby Trend would definitely be a better fit in a hatchback!
We ended up going with the Jeep one, it fit surprisingly well it helped that we were able to take the wheels on and off!
@@breannaness675 how do you like it?... We are considering the green deluxe model
What was the price effect the gladly 4
amzn.to/438R1A3 currently under $650
Please make a video on the Pronto wagon!
Ok!!!
@@KidTravel1 maybe a comparison of it and others. I'm so torn between that, anthem and veer.
We have the Jeep wrangler and like it. We couldn’t afford the keenz or wonderfold so we were okay with a few compromises. We thankfully have a ford explorer so we have a pretty large trunk space. I wish we could’ve afforded higher end but I feel it’s a great wagon for the price.
Even if you had been able to afford one of the other ones, it is often wise to save those extra dollars for more important things, so I applaud you for that. The Jeep has lots of room and extra accessories for a low price!
@@KidTravel1 oh absolutely! The Jeep was on sale. We did the car seat trade in at target and saved A LOT on the wagon and a car seat. Great deals there for the next week ish
Nice!
Weight of the whole stroller, as putting into a van is difficult. I'm 4' 10". 60lbs for the wonderfold wagon is way too much.
Definitely need to do some research. I'm due with my 3rd in June 2023.
Our article has a table with the weights of all of them here: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/?swcfpc=1#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs
60 lbs is such a disincentive. Who's going to want to lift that more than once or twice a year?
Which one do you recommend for a 4 year old? Will it be comfortable for him to nap in?
The bigger boxier ones without hanging seats work well for naps for bigger kids on the inner flat surfaces.
What did you do with all the strollers after the video? 🤔
I still have all of them. We use them with grandkids and its nice when new wagons come out to be able to compare them side by side. Someday I'm sure I'll have to start getting rid of things. Right now I have more than 30 strollers and wagons!
What about the w4 luxe?
Hi Emily, I don't actually have the W4 Luxe but the functional differences from the W4 Elite are:
- bigger wheel size in both the front and back
- 5 lbs heavier
- magnetic buckles
- vegan leather handle
So I think the bigger wheels will make it perform better than Elite in steering and maneuverability and make it better on the grass. This will be offset slightly by the extra weight (it is 63 lbs with nothing in it). The weight / size will make it harder to fold and get in and out of a van.
The magnetic buckles are a cool upgrade because buckles are such a pain.
I wish I had found this video before FINALLY making my purchase. I had been going through numerous videos and websites to pin down what stroller/wagon I would get for my 2 grandchildren. I HAD to look into weight limits as my older granddaughter has a tendency to walk off when she isnt fussing to be carried. It would be nice to include weight limits as it might be a concern for some people like me 😊. I am going back to review the other videos just to see if I made the right choice. Oh and if you could possibly include info on the height of the handles. I'm 5'8 with long arms and a lot of these looked like I would be bending over to push (arms being in an awkward position if that makes sense).
Thank you! We have a lot of that info in a table here: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/best-stroller-wagons/#Product_Ratings_Tests_and_Specs Including the range in height of the handles, the weight limits and much more. Very difficult to put all of that in a video especially when one of our goals is to have very short videos!
@@KidTravel1 thank so much, I check it out.
Vfhfccf
When can I get those here in 🇵🇭
Someday hopefully there will be a amazon.co.ph!!
What is with all these handle bars that are so low and hard to reach..who wants to be hunched over trying to push and reach? They need to make adjustable extendable push and pull bars.
It is a common enough complaint that they should take it seriously.
@@KidTravel1 we just got the wonderfold 4 seater and now looking at the photos online you can see that the people are having to hunch down or bend over even with the added pull handle they have to like bend and reach down. Ugh. I don't know what to do. Going to have to watch this video thoroughly and some of the individual ones and make a well informed decision. It's difficult if you have carpal tunnel or have a big pregnant belly in way and can't reach or if you have a baby strapped to chest.
Very sturdy in comparison to other strollers that we had. I get a lot of compliments for it. My baby loves being in the bassinet, The ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx4qZutfp1y5CaTUcMTuFPbARE5u-8XLiE stroller comfortable. I like the rain cover and the white net that comes with it. I use the rain cover just to cover the car seat when it rains. If your front wheels don't turn well, make sure you lubricate.
Which wagon?
The larktale one not in here looks interesting
Yes! It will be in a future video. Here is the review we did on it: kidtravel.org/stroller-wagons/larktale-caravan-stroller-wagon-review/
@Kid Travel what about the caravan coupe??
Uh oh! A new Larktale. I need to add that to the list for this year.
Do you know how any of them do in the sand
Most don't do well in the sand. The Veer and Anthem are ok. In general even those with wheels they say are made for sand are very difficult to pull in soft sand, but some of them do ok on hard packed sand.
I need one for 4 kids
Which one are you thinking about?
Veer has a 4 seater wagon

Evenflo is garbage. Front Wheels are unstable and vibrate on flat surface at low speeds with weight.
I haven't seen that but we'll take another look next time I'm out.
