Baby Planet Strollers
A great side-by-side stroller
We at DaddyDaily know there are a lot of stroller products on the market for parents to choose. For expectant/new parents this task can be overwhelming. It is important for us at DaddyDaily to touch, test and feel the products we offer our community. We go to the trade shows talk to the manufactures, pull the stroller out, test them, rough the products up a little, talk to other parents and form an opinion we think our community would appreciate. Think of it as the “DaddyDaily Approval” on products. In this web savvy world, consumers have unlimited choices and it can become difficult to navigate through all the selections. At daddydaily.com we provide products that we feel offer quality, value and a commitment to our community – the community of parents who want the best for their children.
We came across Baby Planet among the sea of stroller manufacturers while attending a trade show for infant product. No doubt, there are a lot of quality products on the market for every style. However, Baby Planet really made an impression. Not only are their products impressive, but even more inspiring (yes inspiring) is their mission and values as corporate citizens. They have a revolutionary recycling program for their industry and they have also partnered with the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) to focus attention on endangered species around the world. It’s quite a statement from a young stroller company. We talked to everyone they had available - their product designers about how they developed their products and also to the CEO about the company philosophy.
Baby Planet offers a great side-by-side called the Unit Sport which has two features that really stand out, one especially for fathers! The two features we really like are the handle and the walking room. Its amazing the pressure you put on your wrists when walking with strollers. For those who have pushed up hills or around the playground (dirt, gravel, or sand) you know the feeling. The Unity Sport handle is great on the wrists as it allows for different hand positions when needed. It’s also very easy to maneuver with one hand, which is a plus. Now not sure if this next feature was designed just for us Dads, but like to think so. Walking with the stroller and not kicking the wheels! During the “test drive” there was ample room for my stride and there was no kicking the stroller every other step or doing the side step every other stride. It’s amazing how many other fathers have this issue. It may sound funny, but having that little bit of room made all the difference!

I really need to try this stroller. The side-by-side I have is an umbrella-type and it is WAY too hard to maneuver. The whole frame is too “flexy” and I think it has a lot to do with the way the handles are positioned. The side-by-sides can be a little challenging to maneuver in a crowded store at the mall so any improvement in handling would be appreciated.
