Phil and Teds Strollers

Phil and Ted's is a New Zealand-based manufacturer of baby care products that are classified into 6 categories - carry, sleep, push, drive, feed and adapt. In many ways, it can be said that Phil and Ted's offers parents an excellent range of choices for their new lifestyle from the moment baby is born to the time the first steps are taken and beyond.

Obviously, the Phil and Ted strollers belong to the push category. Choosing from among these strollers is a lifestyle choice in itself because of the factors that come into play during the selection process. You have to consider the costs, safety features, durability, functionality, flammability, toxicity and even environmental factors of the strollers.

All of these factors, fortunately, are tested by Phil and Ted's even before the strollers have reached the stores and sites. Thus, you are assured that, no matter which of the strollers you choose in the end, you have a high-quality product in your hand that every parent will be proud to possess.

Classic Buggy

The Classic Buggy is the most affordable stroller from Phil and Ted's. Fortunately, this neither means that it is inferior in quality nor in quantity where the features are concerned. Indeed, the Classic Buggy still has the four-in-one versatility of the other Phil and Ted strollers but at a more affordable price.

Other features include the 3-position seats for your kids' comfort; the front wheel that can be swiveled for strolling or locked for light jogging; washable and waterproof fabric; double rear foot brake for safety; dual handle height for the convenience of whoever is pushing the stroller; and a durable powder-coated steel to hold everything together.

When used as a single position stroller, the Classic Buggy can accommodate a maximum of 55 pounds. In case two kids are placed in the stroller, maximum weight is 88 pounds with 33 pounds in the rear, max.

Sport Buggy

If you want greater versatility in your Phil and Ted's stroller but without going high-end, we suggest the Sport Buggy lightweight stroller. With its patented double system, you can transform it from a single stroller to a double stroller with the use of a toddler seat attachment. As such, you can bring just one kid or two kids along for the ride, be it on off-road or on-road conditions.

Like other advanced Phil and Ted strollers, the seats offer a 4-position contour - lying flat, sleepy, heads up and upright. As such, your newborn and your toddler can be positioned in either of the two seats although it is recommended that the newborn be placed in the rear seat.

Dash Buggy

The Dash Buggy is also suitable for newborns up to 5-year old toddlers, which is due in large part to the multi-positional seats from the completely lie-flat to the upright. The seats are also padded for added comfort while its two-tone fabric satisfies your sense of style.

Other features that make the Dash Buggy suitable for dashing around town are the intelligent hand brake that can stop on a dime; the trigger fold mechanism that allows for easy folding of the stroller; and the durable powder-coated steel frame. Basically, the Dash Buggy is one step up from the Sport Buggy, which is a reflection of the company's commitment to making better and better Phil and Ted strollers.

Vibe Buggy

Probably the most advanced of all the strollers, the Vibe Buggy is made from a lightweight but durable aluminum frame. You can fold it even with the double kit attached to it, which makes for greater convenience for the busy parent who must balance between parenting and working in the city.

You can also adjust the seats from full upright to totally lying flat depending on the age and preference of the child. The large storage basket allows for stowing away a big bag or two filled with the kids' things and we know how kids are such high-maintenance travel companions even if it is just a trip to the park.

Hammerhead Buggy

This is the latest in the line of Phil and Ted strollers, which boasts of an additional front wheel for better steering. It has all the standard features of the Dash Buggy but with the rugged adaptability of the Sport combined with the streamlined urban look of the Vibe Buggy.
