Choo Choo Wagon & Trailer

mlkwmu

I'm so excited, I finally order the choo choo wagon and trailer.  Shipping was reduced to $10 and with a $10 discount .. it's like I didn't pay anything for shipping, plus the merchandise was little discounted.  Can't wait to use it.

Anyone who has this.... do you like it?  The reviews on the Step 2 website were pretty positive.

we got it right before Halloween and used it on H-ween night and LOVED it. Sadly it's been put away all winter- hoping to get it out very soon with some warmer weather. The boys all loved being in it (even my almost 4y/o).

We got one for Christmas. I can't wait to use it, hopefully this summer.

yes, just got it when it was released and used it for the first time for a walk last week.  LOVE IT!  Enjoy!

p.s. we bought the Radio Flyer umbrellas to clip onto each wagon and they worked great for shade.

can you tell me what you like about it? I still don't understand why it's better than a stroller. Seems like it would hurt your arm to pull it.

I was thinking about those too.. someone mentioned it 1 of the 50 reviews I was reading....all reviews were so positive.. except for maybe a bulky comment here and there.

meaning thinking about the Radio City Umbrellas.

For me I love that it will give me freedom to go places because the only triple stroller that I have is a jogger, so it doesn't fit into most doorways. Last year I was so tired of being stuck in the house because I had no option to take them out with.  I know a few local triplet moms that had/have them and rave about them.  It was hard to pull on the older 'cobblestoney' type pavement in my neighborhood, but once I reached newer smooth pavement, the momentum was like it was rolling almost by itself and easy.  I bought an extra trailer to carry stuff in (if needed), but I have to say that it would be pretty long (IMO) with that fourth cart.  Maybe when I get used to it, it won't seem that way.

The radio flyer umbrellas provide good sun protection.  You do have to bend them to get the right angle for the sun that your in.  We have a family history of Melanoma, so I like having them.

oh.. and another reason why I loved it was because I think my kids REALLY enjoyed it!  They seem to have plenty of room and loved looking around and I think it made them feel independant sitting up like that and only having the belt around their waist.  They are used to being in the 5pt carseat and jogging stroller, so I think they felt like 'big' kids

We got it in the fall and my kids LOVE it!  They have more room than in the stroller.  No one is kicking thier seat, they can see better and in a pinch I can fit 2 side by side to wheel them into the drs office when I am alone with them.  It is much easier than loading my quad stroller and fits nicely in the back of my van.

We got the babies one for Xmas and I really like it.......we've used it a few times on warm days and the babies loved being out and about in them. I can't wait to take them to the zoo and other places when the weather gets warmer.
