Strollers adapted to winter: TOP-5 insulated universal models

The company Tako from Poland offers a low-cost, but at the same time well-prepared for the Ukrainian winter stroller Jumper X. The model is available in several colour options, you can buy both a 2-in-1 variation and a set with a car seat for newborns.

The Tako Jumper X cradle has a soft mattress and a covering made of dense materials. In addition to a large hood with an observation and ventilation window, there is a high screen from the wind — the lapel of the cape, which is attached to the visor of the hood. A similar solution is offered in the more expensive Adamex Avila 2 in 1 stroller.

The reversible walking block is distinguished by a large hood, which allows you to completely cover the child from the sun, wind or rain, even if the backrest is lowered into a horizontal position. From the point of view of aesthetics, it does not look perfect, but it is practical. For a cool pore, a cover for the legs is provided in the kit.

The wheelbase of the Tako Jumper X allows you to combine good cross-country ability and manoeuvrability. The first is provided by large diameter inflatable wheels (especially the rear ones — 31 cm), and the second is the ability to rotate 360 degrees at the front pair. To confidently overcome bumps or snowdrifts, the rotary mechanism can be blocked, which will simplify the control process outside of paved surfaces.

The disadvantage of Tako Jumper X is its large weight. According to this indicator (15 kg), the model is one of the heaviest on the market. In the absence of a ramp and elevator, moving the stroller up the stairs can be a problem. The second disadvantage is the low-cost appearance of the cladding materials and other elements of the product. They literally correspond to the price. The shortcomings of the model include the "loud" hood of the cradle and inconvenient access to the shopping basket when the walking block is installed. But in general, given the low price of the stroller, it will be a good inexpensive solution for winter.

The stroller of the Polish manufacturer Roan, popular in our country, thanks to its chassis resembles a classic design, but it is also equipped with a walking block and can be used until the child turns 3 years old.

Roan Marita is offered in various colour options, which simplifies the search for the optimal design option.

The cradle of the stroller is made of windproof fabric and is spacious: 82 cm in length and 37 cm in width: even in a winter jumpsuit or envelope, the baby will not be cramped. A hood and a cape with a high lapel will protect you from the wind. The inner insulation can be removed for washing, as well as a two-layer mattress.

The Roan Marita walking block is installed facing from/to Mom. The footrest and backrest are adjustable in a wide range. There is one hood for two blocks, and, as parents note, it fits better for a cradle and looks more attractive with it than with a "walk".

The package includes a raincoat, a bag for things, a cape for legs. The role of the shopping compartment is performed by a metal basket.

Roan Marita impresses with large inflatable wheels with a diameter of 31 cm and a metal rim. All of them are non—rotating, which provides excellent cross-country ability even on freshly fallen snow, and together with articulated shock absorption — helps to rock the baby and smooth out any road irregularities. But there is also a minus — weak manoeuvrability: to turn, you need to lift the stroller by pressing on the handle.

The disadvantage of the stroller is a rather large weight against the background of analogues. Minor shortcomings include the absence of a mosquito net, a noisy hood lowering mechanism, large dimensions (it fits into a standard elevator, but not into any car boot).

In general, Roan Marita is a relatively inexpensive winter model that can be recommended to almost everyone, especially residents of the private sector, where it is necessary to overcome "off—road" not only after a snowfall.

The universal stroller of the Polish company Adamex, which debuted in 2015, quickly gained popularity and a leading position in sales. The model is a more affordable analogue of the Barletta 2 in 1, differing only in tailoring and smaller equipment.

The Adamex Avila 2 in 1 cradle is well prepared for winter. It is upholstered with dense, windproof materials. The screen — the lapel of the cape — in the unfolded position completely closes the window of the cradle, protecting it from the wind. The hood is also additionally insulated. But unlike, for example, Roan Marita it is double, in the winter-summer format. So, the upper insulated part can be removed and provide a free flow of air through a lightweight mesh in warm weather.

The size of the sleeping place is quite large: in length and width, even a large baby will be quite comfortable in winter clothes. The headrest adjustment lever is located on the outside of the cradle, which will add convenience to parents.

The walking block is also adapted to winter. There is a thick cape on the legs included and a lapel that protects from the wind. The backrest and footrest are conveniently adjustable, up to the formation of a completely horizontal sleeping place. 5-precise straps and bumper are complemented by a groin insert, ensuring the safety of the baby during walks.

The advantage of Adamex Avila 2 in 1 are large wheels with inflatable chambers. They are not afraid of snow and rough terrain, however, they are vulnerable to sharp objects. The front wheels are slightly smaller in diameter (25 vs 30 cm), they are complemented by a rotary mechanism with a locking function, which provides good manoeuvrability and ease of operation even despite the large weight even by the standards of universal models (more than 14 kg).

The model is well equipped: in addition to a raincoat and a mosquito net, there is a bag for things, a cup holder, a closed-type shopping compartment.

In general, Adamex Avila 2 in 1 can be called one of the most optimal solutions in terms of price and quality. If a sufficiently large weight of the model does not bother, then its winter and general advantages can become a decisive factor.

Noordi Polaris Sport is a 2-in-1 stroller of the Norwegian brand, manufactured in Lithuania. Its very name hints at readiness for bad weather and severe frosts. The model is available in six colour options and is visually similar to the CAM Dinamico 2 in 1.

Noordi Polaris Sport is well prepared for various weather conditions. A dense fabric that does not absorb moisture, a insulated hood, a lapel screen, which, however, is not too high, is responsible for the warmth in winter. The walking block is equipped with a foot wrap (tight and conveniently fixed on the protective bumper), as well as a removable mattress.

Noordi Polaris Sport rides on large inflatable wheels: the front ones have a diameter of 23 cm, and the rear ones have a diameter of 28 cm. They provide high cross-country ability in any weather. Manoeuvrability is provided by the rotary mechanism of the front wheels and the shock absorption system, including a warning of a sudden stop when the front axle comes into contact with an obstacle. Thanks to these features, it is convenient to operate the stroller even with one hand.

In addition to the traditional bumper and 5-point seat belts with soft pads, the stroller received light reflectors on the fabric. Thanks to them, it is clearly visible to motorists in poor lighting.

Noordi Polaris Sport is a good stroller of the middle price segment, which will please with practicality, attractiveness and functionality. If necessary, you can immediately purchase not just a universal model, but a 3-in-1 option with a car seat.

The Italian climate differs from ours in its softness, nevertheless, the successful manufacturer of children's products CAM knows what to offer to demanding parents. The Cortina X3 Evolution universal stroller with car seat is one of the most popular models with three support points on the market.

She is initially well prepared for winter. It's better than another in—demand "Italian" — Chicco Trio Activ3 3 in 1 from 22 303 up to 30 618 ₴, which is not equipped with a foot wrap.

The stroller immediately attracts attention with an attractive design with applications of rhinestones or an original print. Parents are offered 5 colour options to choose from.

The cradle CAM Cortina X3 Evolution has a good capacity, which is suitable for winter use of the stroller. The interior upholstery is dense, warm, made of natural fabric. The flap of the cape is designed to close the opening from the wind, but it is not too high here, in comparison, for example, with Adamex Avila 2 in 1. If necessary, you can use the cradle as a rocking chair, and the Quicky System mechanism will allow you to remove or install it on the chassis easily and quickly.

The stroller's walking block is equipped with a large hood. The angle of inclination of the backrest changes along with the footrest: there are 4 positions, including completely horizontal. In summer, you can straighten the sun visor or open the window for ventilation, and in winter — use a cape for legs.

The basic CAM Cortina X3 Tris model is also equipped with a car seat. It is designed for children weighing up to 13 kg and complies with the safety standard ECE R44/04. There is also a "2 in 1" version of the Duetto X3 on the market.

They also provide excellent manoeuvrability and a minimum turning radius in comparison with classic 4-wheel models. In case of driving over bumps, the rotary mechanism can be blocked.

Pay attention to the fact that its width is 61 cm before purchasing the model. Some old Soviet-style elevators have an opening of 59 cm, and the CAM Cortina X3 Evolution will not pass in them. If this, as well as the high cost of the stroller, is not a critical moment, then the model can be safely recommended for purchase.
