Well it is August and we were promised a sneak peak at the brand new and highly secretive Phil and Teds Peanut and P & T didn't let us down! We are pleased to announce that the Peanut is almost here, and it is awesome.
If you own a Phil and Teds stroller, the Peanut may make you incredibly happy because it makes a great addition to your stroller for a new addition to the fam. If you arn't a Phil and Teds head, the Peanut might sway you towards future ownership of a Vibe, Dash or Sport buggy. Because face it. Everyone wants to put their baby in an adorable sweet bassinet and the Peanut is just that, an adorable sweet bassinet that fits right onto your stroller, enabling you to coo at your sweet little...peanut? Now taking special orders, or come on in soon and see this sweet little Peanut for yourself.
Not to mention that Phil and Teds is so smart, and thinks about everything. As a mother, I honestly appreciate that! The reason why I'm saying all this is that P &T decided to offer a sheet set for the peanut. The three piece sheet set will sell for around $25 and will keep your peanut mattress fresh and clean!
In other very exciting news from Phil and Teds, now available are the new Cushy ride stroller liners in awesome colors includinng pink, light blue, olive and yellow, which fit directly into the Vibe! What a great way to customize your stroller by getting a different color for the front and the doubles kits! Also, P & T has many new products to come for the 2010 line which will be showcased at this years ABC show in Vegas. Don't know if I've mentioned this yet but yes, Strolling In Style will be there to take a look at the latest and greatest!
I did promise a review on the Joovy Kooper in my last blog post, so here it goes!
Joovy Kooper
If you want a lightweight stroller at a great price, you have a lot of options, but if you want a stylish lightweight at a great price, you will love the Kooper. The Kooper has many distant relatives, including the Valco/TFK buggster, and the Quinny Zapp. Both of these strollers are similar in design to Koop. Koop has a beautiful chrome frame, and wheels more similar to a sturdy four wheeler than a lightweight umbrella.
One thing you definitely notice when you push the Kooper is how light it feels in the push, and the cushy foam handles which even has finger and thumb grooves so the push is ultra comfy. For a smaller stroller the underbasket is quite large. The extended sunshade is very sufficient, even for us here in South FL. What I also love about the stroller is that Joovy really had the toddler in mind when designing this stroller. The seat is wide and deep, creating a cozy space for a larger child and the two toddler seat pockets (similar to those on the BOB) can keep your toddler well stocked for the road. As far as folding, it folds easy and small. The weight is more substantial then the umbrella stroller competitors, but then again, the Kooper is alot more than an umbrella stroller.
Best of all, the Kooper sells at a great price point. Come in and take a look, we promise you'll be surprised by what Joovy has to offer.
Happy Strolling guys!

Summer Sale and Caboosin' Around!
Yes, it is time for our annual Summer Sale! Our Summer Sale is your chance to get great discounts on awesome stuff for your stroller and other baby products. The following is a list of what is on sale here at Strolling In Style! Oh, by the way, this is in store only. However, if you do place an online order, enter code SUMSALE to get 15% off your order, on accessories only! If you live in the area do come in and see exactly what's on sale!
Diaper bags- 15% off
Selected Stroller Liners- 25%-35% off
Nursing Covers- 25% off
Pure Joy Collection - 10% off
All non branded stroller accessories- 10% off
All Blankets clearance priced
Ok, on to the latest and greatest news for the store. If you do not already know, we have been strolling on for eight months! This summer has brought many blessings for us, in the names of Graco, Peg Perego, Baby Jogger and Car seats. We brought Baby Jogger in May which was absolutely wonderful, and of course we were up the air as to what new line we would choose for the store. We were going to hold off until we saw what was going on at ABC in September, but Joovy sort of just kicked our rears into gear! So that's how it happened and now Strolling In Style is the latest and greatest Joovy retailer in the US!
Joovy is of course known for their Caboose which is a sit and stand style stroller. Basically it works like this. For moms who waited around until baby #1 was able to wipe the drool off his own chin (oh, around 3 1/2 years) to have baby #2 Joovy created the perfect solution. The Caboose (we took the Ultralight version for the store which is about 21 lbs compared to 27 or so on the original) can hold an infant car seat, and also totes a bench style seat with three point harness for older bro or sis. Older bro or sis can also stand on the platform beneath the bench seat and hold on using the two hand rubbery grips located on either side of the bench seat.
Of course this is a new style stroller for Strolling In Style. Number one, we have insane amounts of double strollers but this is our only "Sit and Stand" line.
Who is the Joovy Ultralight Caboose perfect for? Well, the perfect candidate for this stroller is again as mentioned, the mom with an older child over 3 1/2. Preferably this older child is a) no longer interested in their stroller, or sitting in a stroller b) finds the idea of sitting on the bench or standing on a board "fun and exciting" c) Is willing to sit or stand without having to be conived with candy. If your older child meets these requirements, then you are set to go.
What are the pros of the Ultralight Caboose? Many. Seriously, Joovy has created the Sit and stand stroller with an incredibly surprising smooth ride. The ball bearings on the stroller are serious. It rides and glides very easily. Also, thumbs up to Joovy for creating a simply EASY stroller to stick your infant car seat on and also your three year old without having to tote around a huge double stroller. Think, snap and go with a great place for your other kid to feel comfortable! Convenient? Absolutely.
The Ultralight Caboose makes an great double stroller (if your kid happens to meet the above requirements) but it also makes a specatcular secondary stroller (think mall, quick trips) FOR EVERYDAY USE! Also, including in the amazing price (under $300) is the cool looking neoprene organizer, car seat adapter, rain cover and snack tray! And the Ultralight Caboose has a sleek modern design that actually looks really stylish.
Cons? If any, the stroller seat is not suitable for infants under six months. Therefore, when using the Caboose baby #2 must be in the car sear seat until about 6 months. Most infant car seats are still being used at 6 months so this shouldn't be a problem! Also, the seat only has two positions, so if you have a stroller napper, this might not be enough of a recline.
Seems like the pros outweight the cons? Come and see for yourself! The Joovy Ultralight Caboose is available at Strolling In Style now!
Happy Strolling!
ps...Joovy also makes a Big Caboose. Think newborn twins and a toddler!
