Valco Baby Stroller – Valco All-Terrain Tri Mode

Getting a stroller is not something you would do in haste. You need to do some research on quality, build, and features, especially when it comes to safety. There are a lot of things to consider when buying a stroller. Valco, a manufacturer of baby strollers, offers a wide-range of strollers. They have the Bassinet Pram for newborns and for toddlers, there is the All-Terrain, the Latitude and the Buggster. Under the All-Terrain strollers is the Tri Mode.

The Tri Mode stroller is one of the latest additions to the growing line of swivel wheel strollers. It measures 26 x 29 x 18 inches (WLH) when folded and weighs in at 23 pounds. There are several features found on the Tri Mode stroller that makes it stand above the rest. First off is the state of the art swivel wheel. The Tri Mode is named as such due to the nature of the swivel wheel – it has three different “modes”. The first mode is a 360-degree orientation which is best for maximum maneuverability at the tightest spaces. The second mode limits the wheel to 45-degree turns. This mode is best for straight walks without much need for turning. And if you are on a path that doesn’t turn, the third and last mode will be the best, as it locks the front wheel forward.

Aside from the excellent wheel system, the Tri Mode is best known for its many features that make life easier for any parent. First is the one touch seat recline system. With this mechanism, raising and dropping the seat is a breeze. Positions can vary – from newborns up to fully upright for toddlers. The Valco Tri Mode also comes with an ergonomically designed adjustable handlebar. The Tri Mode is also easy to store, thanks to the super compact fold. If you are in need of storage, the Tri Mode has tons of it. You get pockets at the back of the canopy, a large storage basket and side storage as well. The canopy of the Tri Mode provides full coverage, protecting your passenger from too much sun or other elements.

The Valco Tri Mode is riddled with safety features. These include a 5-point harness system, a tether safety strap to keep the stroller from rolling away from you, quick release wheels and reflective accents that allows the stroller to be visible even at night. The price of the Valco Tri Mode is definitely on the high side. However, the features and the comfort provided by the stroller make it worth every single cent.
