Certainly not an all-encompassing review of available strollers, even at the "high" end, but I thought some of the stroller addicts (I use that term lovingly) on here would find it amusing.

Ha, obviously a babe in the woods who doesn't read manuals or know about accessories! At least one factual error I caught immediately - the verve has an adjustable handlebar. And what is the second child add-on he refers to for the orbit?
LMAO because all I kept thinking was "Silly, rookie, leave the reviews to the pros!"

That's their guy who usually reviews iPads and other tech stuff, and now this. Nice work if you can get it.

Yup. I think he had a baby in the fall, because I think I remember him reviewing newborn equipment gadgets for the NY Times around the time DD was a newborn. Even after only being a parent for a couple of months, I was like "What??? Even I know better than this." :rolleyes:
As I read the stroller piece, I kept thinking "amateur!" :rotflmao:
ETA: Here was his NYT piece about baby gadgets:
