I just got the guava roam and we LOVE it!
r/NewParents • What do I get with luxury/expensive strollers (uppababy, Nuna) over affordable ones (Chicco, Graco) ->Maybe the guava roam? Folds up nicely intact and has good suspension for different terrains. We traded our uppababy for it and no regrets. Our kiddo is 19m and 25lbs, for reference.
r/beyondthebump • Stroller recommendations? ->Guava roam and babyzen yoyo (now stokke) are what we did and I’m happy with the combo. If we have another maybe we will eventually get a wagon but I couldn’t recommend the roam more!!
r/Buyingforbaby • Yet another stroller post ->We have a babyzen yoyo2 and guava roam and they fit our needs nicely. They both fold pretty compact but the babyzen takes up almost no space so I’m happy having that as a travel option especially.
r/Buyingforbaby • 2 Strollers?! ->I had the exact same mindset as you and I have a Guava Roam as my only stroller! I use it daily with my 3 month old with the Chico car seat attachment. It’s the most compact of the major jogging strollers. It’s easy to fold up and doesn’t take up that much space. It fits in the trunk of my Subaru crosstrek, and I’ve heard other jogging strollers don’t fit in the back of smaller suvs without putting the seats down. The wheels are rubber so they can’t deflate. Recently we had a huge snowstorm and I was able to push it through some pretty thick slush and snow/mud when I needed too. I haven’t jogged with it yet but another feature I’ve heard people like is being able to lock the front wheel from the handlebar, which is important for jogging on rocky or uneven ground.
r/fitpregnancy • Stroller options: jogging stroller for everyday use as well? ->I really like the Guava Roam that we got. Airless tires, shocks, easy fold up, can go on trails, durable.
r/daddit • My wife has a crazy addiction to buying strollers. So we’ve tried em all. ->We had a cheap gracias one and I hated it wheels would get stuck all the time it was very frustrating. If you’re looking into higher end I bought the “guava roam” and love this thing. He’s almost 4 and I still stick him in there when I get the chance.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->I'm a simp for our guava roam. Lighter weight, one hand fold, suspension, airless tires, 3 wheels. We live in an older neighborhood with rough sidewalks and also like to do gravel trails. It is perfect. Before 6 months, we put the baby carrier on it with an adapter and it handled our rough winter terrain just fine. I've also starter running with it and it's perfect. Pricey but I got ours secondhand. Honestly, it often gets used multiple times a day and I would replace it at full price if I had to. My goal when I picked it was to remove barriers to getting myself out of the house and it definitely does.
r/moderatelygranolamoms • Moms, what attracted you to buy that stroller? ->The guava roam is great. Goes over the train rails great. I guess any jogger stroller would work lol
r/DisneyPlanning • Stroller that's great for naps? ->I wonder if a Guava Roam can fit in your trunk, because the Uppababy Cruz didn’t fit nicely in our Mach E (it would go in horizontally but not vertically and I didn’t like that I couldn’t put groceries side by side with the stroller). They have a 60 day return policy, so you could order it and test it out! It’s not the lightest stroller cause it’s a jogging one, but it handled cracks on the sidewalk and a bit of snow well here in Seattle.
r/Buyingforbaby • Small strollers with wheels that can handle some terrain ?? ->We love the Guava Roam. It’s our everyday stroller. Had it for over a year and have no regrets!! Love that it folds up easily in our hall closet. We use a lighter stroller for travel / the car.
r/fitpregnancy • Stroller options: jogging stroller for everyday use as well? ->We've used the Guava roam for 16 months now. We like it a lot. Our criteria were very similar to yours. We wanted something that can handle trails and is also compact enough for everyday use. We did not want to buy two strollers ... And we haven't. It's definitely the most compact jogging stroller (though it's not actually a compact stroller if you get what I mean). What makes it even better is that it stands on its own and pretty securely so. We folded up/disassembled either a bob or a Thule in a store and we were immediately like "nope, that's ridiculous". Not only was it still very large but you had to take off the wheels ... Who wants to do that every time and who wants to store such a beast? However, something like a Thule spring was more compact than the roam obviously (we really liked the spring too). The folding is actually easy, I'd rate it A-. It looks clumsy on the video but after you've done it a few times you do it on auto pilot. It doesn't get the A+ because of the weight, it's not a lightweight stroller (no jogging stroller is). There's one feature I didn't think much of but really came to appreciate: the dial on the handle to lock and unlock the front wheel. I didn't think I would use it when I bought it but I do all the time. With other strollers you'd have to engage the brakes, walk to the front, do the thing, and then reverse. On the roam you can do it while you're walking - super handy. Due to it's weight I would not call it a great travel system. BUT I think it's the only jogging stroller that CAN be used as travel system. We're currently not hiking as much on trails as we thought we would, so sometimes I still think about how lightweight that Thule spring was 😆. But we're moving soon to an area with more trails so the roam may still get to truly shine. As far as hiking goes, the roam does fantastic on gravel or dirt roads and can handle getting over some obstacles (roots, rocks) fine but obviously there is a limit. Narrow and really rough trails get annoying quickly. If you're expecting to go down some very steep and long inclines you might start to think about that hand break the Thule glide has ... But we have not really missed it. In conclusion, we've had no issues with it at all. I should add there is currently a voluntary recall happening (new ones are not affected) which is a bummer. We've never had any problems and they're sending us a brand new one (minus the back wheels) for free. It might hurt resale down the road though, some people freak if Google says a recall happened even if it's fixed.
r/BabyBumps • 1 Stroller To Rule Them All? Thule Urban Glide3 vs. Bob Wayfinder vs. Guava Roam, etc. ->https://www.costco.com/Graco%20Ready2Jet%20Compact%20Stroller.product.4000305478.html?NATAPP=SEARCH&COSTID=iosapp_24.9.4&TRACKING=NO&sh=true&nf=true I have this one bc I could care less if it gets dinged up. I just leave it at gate check and don’t even put it in a bag. I’ve been on a few trips recently and it haa held up good so far. We have guava roam stroller and I love it but I think the only time I would bring that on vacation is if we would be hiking/running on uneven surfaces (which to my surprise has dramatically dropped off since having a baby - imagine that 😂)
r/NewParents • What's the best stroller you've used? ->Guava roam has been amazing. I recommend it to everyone. Slightly lighter weight than your average jogging stroller, which makes it perfect for everyday use.
r/fitpregnancy • Best jogging stroller that could also be an everyday one? Good with trails also! ->We've had the Guava for 2.5+ years now. We live in an apartment in an urban area and it folds up easily and doesn't take up much room in our hallway. It's also easy and small enough to fold up when we're at a cafe or restaurant etc, it takes up about as much room as a large suitcase. We use it ALL the time for long walks and runs and our kid still loves it. We did use the car seat attachment for the first few months and that was easy too. We've also traveled with it. Highly recommend!
