THE ORBIT G2 STROLLER IN ALL ITS GLORY



While I was pregnant, I became a frequenter of baby blogs and a loyal reader of parenting magazines. After seeing the Orbit G2 stroller on nearly every 'Must Haves' list of 2012, I decided "Well, I MUST have it!" Let me tell you, this stroller is amazing! The idea that you can rotate the car/stroller seat any way you'd like to suit your situation is a luxury that I, now, could not do without.

I took RJ on a 3 hour drive without my husband (yikes!) and when RJ woke up and started crying, I thought I was in over my head. Luckily, with the Orbit G2 car seat, I was able to turn him around to face me every time I was stopped by a red light. The fact that he could see my face was enough to calm him down until he fell back asleep & I never had to get out of the drivers seat! This is just one of the many stories I have that give praise to this car seat. The stroller frame is a little wide on the back end (I have hit, many, a corner and table leg) but that is a small price to pay in exchange for all the perks, in my opinion.

You can buy this stroller from the actual company here and at pamperedtot.com here There are also plenty of store vendors that are listed on the Orbit Baby website. F.Y.I Pampered Tot is an AMAZING website. The customer service is awesome; their team replies to emails quickly, if you offer a phone number, they will call -- it's not some automated machine you will deal with. I highly recommend them if you're a parent that likes to shop online for your little munchkin. 

Pros

  • G2 travel pack comes with stroller frame and car seat attachment
  • rides smoothly
  • rotating seat
  • folds away and opens up easily
  • adjustable head/neck cushion in seat
  • LATCH system compatible
  • color kits allow you to change the color of your toddler seat at will (for all you fashionista-moms out there!)
  • compliment magnet :)
Cons
  • Back wheels are wide in proportion to frame
