Is the Valco Rad discontinued? It is not featured on the Valco Baby website.

I watched a YouTube video review of the Rad. The woman had her 6 1/2 yo old in it. Yikes...do kids need strollers at 6 1/2 yo???? Anyway, is it suitable for a newborn or infant? She said the straps were on the tightest setting and her kid could get in them...also...she demonstrated that the reversible seat must be forward facing or removed before folding. And the thing looked huge.

Can anyone offer insights, please? Thanks!

Yes, it has been, but not for a bad reason. Valco's lease ran out, and it is returning in the summer as the i'Candy Apple. Yes, some children might need a stroller at 6.5, depending on the situation. And yes, the seat is very generous. I have a review of it on strollerqueen.com under "Year of Strollers". I think it was my January pick?
