Steelcraft Strider 3 - Your Comments Please!!!

[Maruschke]

I have spent most of the holidays going crazy trying to find a suitable pram, and I think I have settled on the Strider 3. Has anyone got this? What did you like about it? What did you not like? Ta!

Here is a link to my Strider story!! There a few things that I loved about it but for us the bad outweighed the good sorry to say. I have the P & T that I initally wanted but DH said that "we won't need a toddler seat for ages"!! Anyway we love it! If I was getting the Strider I would look at the 4 so you can add the toddler seat to it - I don't think it fits on the 3. Good luck!

We have the strider 3 and even though we've not used it much so far, we're loving it. From our test drives in shops, we found the 3 a little easier to steer than the 4 (and also the deluxe). We love the fact that bub is higher up, and therefore easier to get in and out (especially when so little), and that when he's big enough and we switch to the regular seat, we can still have him facing us rather than being forced to have him facing away from us.

The only hassle I have is in forgetting that the wheels are a bit wider than the rest of the pram, but bumping into things hasn't woken Samuel yet.

Another note: none of the strider 3, 4 or the deluxe takes a toddler seat. It's the strider take 2 that does so. Confusing - just too many striders on the market!

Good topic! I was just going to post and ask about the strider 4!

Any cons with this pram? I want a 3 wheeler
This has a good youtube link showing how it works

I should have added... we only want one child (so won't need a toddler seat) and we plan on going offroad a fair bit.

Thanks ladies, was looking at the 4 wheeler today and love it.
Babies Galore & Baby Kingdom are selling the standard model for $349.

We have the Strider 3 and love it. DD is so comfortable in it as well. I definately recommend it to anyone.

Hi Ladies,

I recently had a similiar problem in choosing a pram, to the point where I started driving my husband insane shopping everyday and looking at differen prams b/c I couldn't decide as there are so many on the market. I ended up going with P&T's -Vibe b/c it had everything I wanted and needed, In liked the idea of the option to add a toddlers seat 4 later on if necessary (planning ahead), i don't realy know anyone that has the one you are talking about and I don't think I looked at it, but im really happy with the one I have chosen.

Cheers,
