Product RAVE: Britax Blink

We ordered our stroller last week, and it came in on Tuesday evening. Let me tell you, this thing is worth every penny and then some! We already own several Britax products, and so we have high expectations of this brand as far as quality goes. The Blink delivers.

Things we love about the Britax Blink:

-STYLE STYLE STYLE!! This stroller looks amazing.
-Height! If I wear 5" heels (which I often do), thus standing a total of 5'11", I can still push this stroller without bending over in the slightest.
-Height again! It's got the tallest seat I've ever seen on this type of stroller. It is excellent for tall skinny toddlers like Orren.
-Compact size. This stroller folds down compactly enough to fit in the back of my Chevy HHR and still leave room for a full haul of groceries, or everything necessary for a day at the park.
-Ease of use. This stroller is absolutely idiot-proof when it comes to folding and unfolding, and has such smooth easy movements.
-Seems to have plenty of storage room as far as a stroller of this type goes. It even has a little pouch on the back of the canopy for extra storage.
-Price. Feature for feature, this stroller stacks up nicely against many twice its price. Being that it is a Britax, it is excellent quality for the price, and worth more than we paid.

Things we do not love:

-The upholstery is not as high quality as that of our Peg Perego stroller, but also, that's one hell of a comparison. Peg Perego is known industry-wide for having the best upholstery of any manufacturer of baby gear, so nothing is going to be as good. I'd say the materials the Blink is made of are the next best thing.
-There's no water bottle holster like we have on our Peg Perego Aria, but this may be available for aftermarket purchase, so this may be a temporary problem in actuality.


Bottom line:

We love our Blink! I only wish it came in double so I could continue to use it with the next baby!

Now pictures:

It's almost as tall as 6-year-old Erin!

Orren loves his Blink!
