All In One Stroller and Baby Carrier
May 28th, 2008 by Christine
Well, the Kelty Convertible Carrier is both, actually - and, unlike many ‘multi-purpose’ baby items, this one works equally well in either capacity!
If you’re planning lots of trips out and about with your baby this summer, then this carrier/stroller is ideal! For certain environments (walks along the beach, for example), only a baby carrier will do… but how wonderful to have a stroller on hand when you need it - particularly at feeding time!
As a carrier, the Kelty Convertible is robust but lightweight (just over 9lbs) and the sliding torso-length adjustment means that it can be adapted to suit your height. It keeps baby in an upright position, with a nice view over the top of your head (although this means, of course, that this item is not suitable for very young babies who cannot yet hold up their heads).
You can concert it to a stroller very quickly and easily (just flip the stroller handle and the wheels are released) - and a real plus with this model is how narrow it is once converted, making it easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces.
It also includes storage space for diapers and bottles - even when it’s being used in ‘back pack’ mode!
Traveling with baby usually entails bringing lots of gear - so to have a carrier, stroller (and even a diaper bag) all rolled into one is a real boon!
You can currently save 15% on the Kelty Convertible Carrier at the BabyCenter Store - and the shipping is free, too!
