Mompush - Velo

Oh I get it!!! So in that case maybe it might be easy to have the convertible car seat since me personally never really took baby out with just the car seat. Baby wraps and Carriers are easier to keep the baby comfortable and all. And also for walks and so you really don’t need the big stroller, a compact travel one does the job just fine, that’s what I used the most when had one kid and takes less trunk space. I have a Mompush one that I got on sale for under 150.

For strollers, check out the mompush brand. They sell direct to consumers so they’re much more affordable! I got the velo and we’re excited to use it when baby is born

We got a separate stroller for travel.  We used the mompush from Amazon/a carrier for our baby. We bought uppababy’s travel bag to put our stroller and car seat in btw. If something happens to it uppababy will reimburse you but it has to be in their bag. 

I partially regret my purchase of the Mompush, just throwing it out there. It's a perfectly fine stroller, rolls nicely and has the basic features you'd need but they decided to stop including the mattress pad cover and inside lining to the bassinet. Not really a big deal despite the fact it's listed as including it and it's still a part included in the assembly instructions. When I called and asked they were literally like "we think it's better without it!" The lining material is scratchy and not cozy at all. I'm bummed about it!!!

This was my dream stroller! While I was pregnant I would go to my local baby store and tested out like once a month. I loved it so much. Unfortunately, it was out of my budget. I was gifted a mompush. It suits my needs, but it takes up way too much room in my trunk, leaving barely any room for anything else. I really wish that I was able to get the Triv. If you have the budget for it, definitely get the stroller!

I got a $99 MomPush one on Amazon (during a sale). It starts as a bassinet then adjusts to a seat. Kept it pretty simple - it’s good for outdoor walks and I didn’t really care if it got dirty or a little banged up. The canopy is UPF 50, which was nice, and there’s a cold weather cover you too. The bassinet/seat detaches and it folds up well. No way was I going to spend more than $150-$175 on a stroller! Now that we’re about to have two we’re considering leveling up, but I really just don’t think it’s necessary to get something super fancy.

3... I got a Evenflo Shyft Dualride (like Donna) which I use as car seat and quick errands. A Cybex Gazelle from neighbourhood walks, then figured out its too big and heavy to put in the car and travel so I just got a mompush Velo as my travel stroller.

We have the Nuna Triv Next stroller and the bassinet attachment was $500. I couldn’t find it second hand anywhere so we ended up getting on market place and purchasing the Mompush stroller because it was a cheaper option to also have a bassinet. They grow out of the bassinet attachment so fast so I definitely recommend second hand if you can find what you want

We have the mompush because we also didn’t want to spend an arm and a leg on a secondary travel stroller. Comes with lots of accessories and a snack tray. For the price, we’ve been impressed. “Best” travel stroller on the market? Probably not. But as far as quality, it’s a good bang for the buck without breaking the bank. I see it lasting a long time.

MomPush strollers are affordable with a lot of the niceties of the more expensive ones. We especially like the meteor because the seat is convertible between bassinet style and standard seat.
