Prams were invented more than two hundred years ago and became popular during the Victorian age. During the reign of Queen Victoria, from June 1837 until her death on January 22, 1901, Britain's upper class hired nannies to look after their children from birth. It was at this time that the pram became a status symbol.
Within twenty years of Queen Victoria's passing, the pram was being used around the world. Their popularity grew as the first light weight folding strollers hit the market in 1965.
Reversible Stroller
Welcome to the 21st Century and the Birth of the Super Stroller Nowadays technology has foisted a new generation of prams that can only be called "super strollers". There's a huge range of models and accessories for parents to choose from.
And, just like in the auto market where a Ferrari cost about ten times what an "average" car cost, a super stroller will also cost about tenfold what a basic stroller costs. It would not be stretching the truth to say that high end strollers have once again become status symbols.
So what separates a super stroller from its more common brethren? Well, they certainly are super stylish. And they're designed to be more comfortable for your baby and easier for you to use.
What Features Will You Find in a Super Stroller?
For example, a four figure stroller will probably have a dual hydraulic frame suspension, be easy to open, and have a reversible seat. It will boast comfortable, soft fabrics that are gentle on your baby's skin yet it will be made of materials that are easy to clean. It will be a stylish design that's easy to use and will let you take your little one just about anywhere you want to roam.
The seat will be adjustable to almost any angle so your baby can recline in comfort. The canopy will be adjustable to protect your baby's tender skin from the sun as its UV sun shade protects your baby's eyes from the sun's harsh glare. It will come with a sleeping bag so you can put your baby down on a blanket next to you during a stroll in the park.
And when the skies cry, a rain cover will protect him or her from the downpour. Your super stroller will be narrow enough to carry through a standard doorway and it will also be car seat compatible. And, of course, it will have the standard accouterments such as a plastic tray, a cup holder, and an infant carrier security strap.
If you want the very best for your baby and wouldn't mind seeing envious expressions on your neighbor's faces, a super stroller might be in your baby's future.
