The First Years Wave Stroller is a modern take on the classic European style pram. The Wave, as with other strollers from The First Years, promises to be a baby carrier that is 'easier for you, more comfortable for your baby.' Just how easy and comfortable is this stroller exactly?
The Wave has many advantages over other brand strollers of the same class. This stroller offers versatility; the comfortable, reclinable seat changes from a bassinet for infants to a toddler seat, to accommodate your growing baby. You can also adjust the direction of the stroller seat. The seat goes from rear facing to forward facing mode simply by twisting the release handle. Additionally, the stroller comes with a universal attachment which can fit easily with The First Years Via infant car seat or other brand infant car seats such as the Graco SnugRide and the Chicco KeyFit. If you are concerned about the safety of your child, you need not worry. The seat is equipped with a five-point harness to ensure that your baby is securely seated.
The First Years Wave Stroller is perfect for taking your baby for a leisure walk. It is equipped with 7" diameter front wheels and 11" diameter rear wheels, ensuring an effortless, smooth ride over any surface. It is also equipped with taller, adjustable handles. The height can be adjusted easily, so that you won't hit the rear wheels or the back side of the stroller when you go for a walk. The canopy is fully adjustable and removable. On a cloudy day, you can open or even remove the canopy if you want to show your baby the beautiful day. But on a sunny day, you can pull the canopy down and your baby can stay cool under the shade. The Wave also comes with ample storage space. The large parent console enables you to store baby bottle, purse, or keys within your reach. Meanwhile, the storage basket underneath the seat is large enough to fit a diaper bag, other baby essentials, or anything you buy along the way. When the seat is removed, you can easily fold the stroller thanks to the easy one-hand fold system and store it in your car trunk.
Despite all the amazing features it has to offer, The First Years Wave Stroller also has some issues. The stroller frame does not stay where it's supposed to be when folded. The frame can spring by itself and glide all by itself, so you should secure it properly. The stroller also lacks several necessary accessories such as a cup holder and a rain cover.
