Maclaren Twin Techno - More detail Reviews..WHY??? For YAZ!!





Here are 2 pictures of Jelita's sons..Amin & Arif on their Twin Techno



Pictures of children on the Twin Techno



A Review
Maclaren’s Twin Techno is the best double stroller of all time……
and I’m so totally serious!
I’ve reviewed a few double strollers in the past; non-joggers include the Joovy Caboose tandem, Baby Planet Unity and phil&teds Sport with double kit.
I feel like I have a little double-stroller experience under my belt and have quickly learned what features are important to me in a double stroller: compact fold, reclining seats, fairly large canopies, easy-access basket space, easily adjusted straps, a drink holder or two, easy maneuverability, and most importantly the ability to fit in the back of my ol’ school Honda Odyssey.
Maclaren’s Twin Techno stroller stole my heart when all I had to do was turn it vertically with the handles down to fit perfectly in my small trunk space.
It stood only about 18″ wide and freed up the rest of my trunk for two black travel suitcases and an overnight bag.
The Caboose fit laying on its side only if I removed the canopy; the Unity only if I collapsed the car’s backseat before putting it in; the phil&teds required removal of the tires.
If it weren’t for the Twin Techno all five of us would’ve had to share one black suitcase for our week-long trip to Disneyland!
Okay, enough about its amazing space-saving capabilities.
Let me tell you what else the Twin Techno has to offer.
xox
The Twin Techno’s all-important features include:
Height-adjustable 5-point harnesses (you can cover these in 8 different “comfort pack” options)Removable/washable seats
Front-wheel suspension
Independent 5-point recline (it’s a little tricky to recline but once you figure it out it’s easy as pie)
Independent and water-resistant canopies with UV-protective windows and sun visors plus pockets on the back for added storage (loved the window but we did have to cover it now and then with a small blanket when the sun was overhead; pockets were perfect for camera, cell phones, and extra snacks)
xox
Extendable leg rests (used this all the time so our littlest once could sleep comfortably)
High-performance aluminum frame (a.k.a. the ability to hold a diaper bag, beach bag and Disney bags without tipping…see photo)
Lightweight (at only 25 pounds this stroller is competitive with others on the market)
Compact umbrella fold (already covered this one; note: the more you use it the easier it gets to open)
Double mesh shopping baskets (easy to get to and good sized)
Removable cup holders
Carry handle (loved this feature)
5-second, one-hand fold (um, not sure I could have folded it this quickly with one hand but perhaps with two)
xox
Ergonomical foam insulated handles (my hands never felt tired even when pushing the kids from Disneyland to California Adventure, back to Disneyland, and then off to Downtown Disney)Lockable, front swivel wheels (didn’t review this feature as I totally forgot about it! LOL)Reflective accents for safety at night (these give off a nice glow during the Electric Parade)Maclaren’s already too cool Twin Techno fits through a standard door (and an amusement park’s stroller entrance)
and is suitable from birth up to a total of 110 lbs.
I absolutely LOVE this stroller!
If it can fit in my van, still allowing us to pack a clean change of underwear, and survive a 3-day park hopper pass to Disneyland and California Adventure, it deserves all the love I can give it! –Emily

Recalls on drop-side Cribs!

Even the cribs that are sold in Malaysia is similar
So lets take some percautions
Stork-Craft recalls 2.1 Million Drop-Side Cribs of Doom in US & Canada
The CPSC and Health Canada jointly announced a recall for 2.1 million drop-side Stork Craft cribs because of a threat of suffocation and entrapment
Four children are known to have suffocated in the gap between the dropside and the mattress.
xoxThe recall covers cribs sold between 1993 and last month [!], at all kinds of retailers on- and offline: 1.2 million cribs in the US--including 147,000 cribs sold under the Fisher-Price brand--and almost 1 million cribs in Canada. [Stork Craft is Canadian.]
xox
Crib owners are warned to check the drop-side hardware for wear, damage, and correct installation, and to not use the dropside feature until they receive a repair kit from the company.
To reminds parents and care givers, that when you assemble a crib to the manufacturer's instructions and use it properly, a crib provides the safest sleeping environment for baby.

Babywearing - Part1

UpMama Hybrid Sling Is it a pouch?
Is it a ring sling?
No, it’s both! And it comes with all the benefits of each.
The UpMama Hybrid sling has combined the best features of pouches and ring slings and eliminated some of the common problems of both
to make a super-easy and super-comfortable carrier.
The UpMama Hybrid has the simplicity of a pouch, b
ut it’s adjustable like a ring sling, which means post-partum weight loss
won’t get in the way of carrier comfort and,
more often than not, two parents can share one sling.
It’s a perfect introduction to babywearing.
It’s made of a cotton sateen with a touch of stretch
and also has a zippered pocket in a complementary fabric at the end of the tail.
This carrier gets admired from near and far.
Aamazing Canadian babywearing 3-in-1 coat:
the down-filled M-Coat has a removable panel that will help take you from pregnancy to babywearing and beyond.


Peanut Shell’s Chic Ruffle Baby Sling

An infant carrier with ruffles.
But this pretty sling isn’t just about the looks.
It’s also super comfy — it’s made of a soft pink linen and lined with jersey.
Available in two sizes (XS/S and M/L),
this pouch-style carrier is cut generously and works well for newborns up to toddlers.
You could tote a 19-month-old baby around in it with ease.
Because it’s a little roomier than some pouches, be sure to measure carefully
when choosing a size or size down if you’re in doubt.
These carriers combine style and comfort (for you and baby) beautifully. And even if ruffles aren’t your cup of tea, Peanut Shell has lots of lovely slings to choose from.

Baby Buddha



Your baby is going to love going for a ride in this comfy carrier.
Easy to use and a pleasure to wear,
the Baby Buddha is an excellent choice for a mom (or dad)
looking for a perfect do-everything carrier.
With a choice of performance fabric (cotton, bamboo, or hemp — all organic!)
that stretches with you when you move and wicks away moisture,
the Baby Buddha is always comfortable for the baby and the wearer.
.And Baby Buddha even recommends that you can use the waist sash
(also called the stabilizerwrap) as a funky skirt over jeans!
Now that’s a multi-tasking carrier!
Check out their cool Buddha Belly Support Bands (in all their divine fabrics)
and their Buddha Buddy Play Slings.



Mango Baby

This mei tai from Mango Baby is a gorgeous option for parents
looking for a two-shouldered carrier.
The carriers are made of cotton (some have satin jaquard panels)
and can be machine-washed and dried.
This Chinese-inspired mei tai is designed to be tied in a different way than most
(there’s nothing tied around the wearer’s waist, just the shoulders —
it’s called the Twist-and-Tuck method, if you’re looking for the fancy lingo!)
The Mango Baby mei tai to be extremely easy to use
and a great carrier for wearing baby.
Theres little pockets at the end of the straps.
The fact that this carrier looks beautiful and turns heads.
It's an added bonus

Cybex Baby -2 Go Baby Carrier


Suitable for babies from 3 months up to 40 lbs,
it has ergonomically formed shoulder straps
and distributes the child’s weight evenly on the parent’s hips, not back
— similar to the ErgoBABY Carrier, but with even more positions and way more style.
There are 5 positions;
facing inwards, hip position — facing inwards, front facing outwards, front facing as a mobility seat — for older babies with the top part folded down, and on the parent’s back.


Karma Baby Slings!

These pouch slings are so easy to use and come in the most gorgeous fabrics,
With five carrying positions, these slings work for newborns, infants and even toddlers.
Celebrity fans of Karma Baby Slings include
Matthew McConaughey, Milla Jovovich and Sarah Michelle Prinze.

MacLaren Grand Tour LX Stroller

Luxury Is an Understatement!
The Maclaren Grand Tour LX stroller is,
well, grand!
Long known as the leader of the umbrella stroller set,
Maclaren has upped the ante in the stroller market with the creation of the new Grand Tour LX.
It’s a luxury ride for children from newborn to toddler
and it’s sure to impress parents looking for a little something extra in their stroller.










Features
Sovereign Lifetime Warranty
Ergonomically optimised height-adjustable handle
Convertible Seat faces forward or back
Soft Carry Cot for infants
One hand recline in 3 positions
Extra generous canopy, with sun visor, air vents & storage pockets
Foot-operated linked parking brakes
Front and rear wheel suspension
Strollometer: wireless device with integrated sensor, measures time and distance
Safety Lights and Remote Control
Console with Clock & Thermometer
Height adjustable shoulder harness
Coordinating head hugger
Shoulder pads
Reflective accents
Raincover
Mosquito Net
Car seat compatible
Cup Holder
Luggage Tag
Shopping Basket & Removable Shopping Bag
Specifications:
Suitable from birth to 65 lbs.
Wheel size: 6" front, 11" rear
Stroller weight: 37 lbs

Putting It Together
The Grand Tour LX ($900) comes ready to use right out of the box.
Just unfold and go.
If, however, you want to use any one of the included goodies — like the canopy, raincover, mosquito net or Strollometer® — it may take you an extra 30 seconds or so,
but other than that, the Grand Tour LX is really easy to get on the road.

The Seat
It has three seating positions (upright to full-recline) and ample room for your little one.
It can also be mounted on the chassis facing forward or backward
— a feature few strollers have.
I also really love the padded, five point system harness — it’s super easy to figure out.
The seat fabric is machine washable and comes in a variety of stylish color-options.

The Ride
The Grand Tour LX has all of the fluidity of a typical high-end stroller.
It’s easy (and, I’ll admit, fun!) to push,
has an adjustable handle and it navigates sidewalks and store aisles with ease.
It has puncture-proof wheels which I initially worried would sacrifice the quality of the ride
but I was pleased to discover that the full suspension more than compensated.
And I love the easy-to-use foot-operated brake, as well.

The Fold & Storage
This is perhaps the most striking feature of the Grand Tour LX:
You can fold it and un-fold it in a flash.
When folded, it stands upright for easy storage and quick access when needed.
It’s compact but sturdy and will fit easily in the trunk of a car o
r tucked behind the front door at home.
It’s no umbrella stroller size-wise, to be sure, but it’s still easy to pack and store.

The Goodies
Okay, get ready for it.
This stroller comes with almost everything you could ever possibly need in a stroller
(and some things you may have never dreamed of!).
In addition to things like a cup-holder, rain cover, bug cover, baby carrycot,
reflective accents and the famous Maclaren lifetime warranty,
the Grand Tour LX also has built-in headlights (seriously),
with multiple visibility settings (constant, flashing, colored) which mom or dad can control with a remote control (seriously… again).
xox
The remote mounts on the handlebar console
which flips open to feature a clock and thermometer.
And if that’s not enough, the Grand Tour LX includes an onboard Strollometer® which measures distance by way of an integrated wireless sensor in the wheels.
I know it sounds almost comical but,
truth be told, it’s both useful and fun to have these features.
They all conspire to ensure mom or dad is safe, fit, and never late!
Unfortunately,
Maclaren hasn’t yet figured out a way to ensure that baby helps with the same missions…

Available Accessories
There are plenty of accessories available for the Grand Tour LX,
including infant car seat adaptors, a boot which turns the Grand Tour LX
into a sleeping bag onwheels,
and adorable toy sets for the bumper bar to occupy little riders when you decide to put the Strollometer® to the test!

Maclaren Grand Tour LX in a Nutshell
This stroller is thoroughly impressive.
Expensive, yes, but it is a marriage of the ease of a classic umbrella stroller with the style and durability that you would expect in a modern ‘glam’ stroller.
It folds and unfolds in a flash, adjusts to the different needs of every parent and child,
and is sleek and stylish.
It’s an excellent stroller for any age and may just be that one mythical stroller that does it all… and then some!
