Has anyone used this stroller in the snow? If so, does it work well?

we have only used in on plowed areas. It would fare well in deep snow. At least the two small front tires wouldn't.

Honestly it was wonderful! I loved it but the front wheel did get stuck when the snow was deep I live in queens ny I did trade this stroller in when I found out it was recalled I now have a mama papa armadillo and it is perfect this stroller can grow with your baby hope this helped

We've had it outside the entire time, and it has done fine. It isn't very heavy, but comparatively sturdy enough to handle thunderstorms for example. We live in the south, so i can't tell you about snow, but i hope this helps

Hello, I haven't taken mine out on the trails yet. I do absolutely love this stroller and would recommend it to people for sure. I looked at a few at petsmart and put my 13 pound yorkie in them and they would tip very easily. This stroller does not tip, it is sturdy, has a little leash inside to attach to his harness if needed and works well in the city streets and grass. I think it would be fine in the trails, but again, I haven't tried that yet. Good luck to you! Oh and it collapses and opens up very easily too!

As a Maine resident, we definitely have our fair share of nasty snowy weather. This stroller has sturdy wheels (that can rotate or lock in the forward position) and it navigates through slush and snow quite well. Love this stroller.

Yes, I love this stroller. (I have only ever used this as a jogging/walking stroller, I have never used this as a bike trailer.) It's really easy to handle, and I like that it holds my 4'1", 60 lb son with ease.

I would. The stroller is great, a little heavy, but great. During the winter the baby would most likely stay in the car seat attachment to keep warm. My son was born in June and mostly uses the car seat attachment still to avoid the wind on him.

I think you will find the four-wheel more stable. My Shih Tzu is getting along in years and has a heart murmur. Living on the third floor of the building, I must take him outdoors to relieve himself. The exertion caused him to cough, so I now transport him in the stroller. It's gone through rain, sleet snow and somewhat rough terrain several times daily for a year now and I have had no problems with it. I'd purchase the same one again if this one ever wore out.

I have not tried the stroller on dirt trails, but do NOT think it would be very good. The wheels turn fine when the stroller is empty, but put my 30 pound dog inside and sometimes it does not maneuver that well. It is fine for the airport, which is what I have used it for.

I love this stroller. I do not use it in rough terrain however. I use it up and down super hilly streets with a thirty 35 pound three year old in it and it is a breeze to push both ways. So glad I purchased it. I have not found anything negative about it yet. I am going to get a rain cover for it next so we can use it even in the rain.

I've used it heavily over the past three days after a 12" and 7" snowfall. The heavier snow took a little bit more care so as not to trip the circuit breaker, but it handled packed and wet slushy snow just fine. This morning I cleared a 150x45 parking area for a local church without any trouble at all. It kept up well with a gas powered snow blower! I had to be careful when attacking the packed clumps of snow along the edge where the county snow plows had been, but this little snow beast didn't skip a beat. One tip - check the blades after a couple of hours of use and make sure to tighten any which are loose. I've used it heavily over the past three days after a 12" and 7" snowfall.

I know this is kind of old but you can push it through grass and snow if you really needed to. Just gotta lock the front brakes. I forgot to lock them and pushed through snow, the wheels went sidewards haha. Not a terrain stroller for sure, it can't handle mud and I don't expect to go through any more snow than in a parking lot. That said it can handle a lot more than the simple umbrella that I got as a hand me down. The wheels are kind of a beast for this type of stroller. It works for me and I live in a rural area but I also have jogging strollers. It is much easier for smooth flat surfaces and it's easier on my back.

I've had this stroller for almost a year now. I haven't had any issues with it, and I use it to take my Tea Cup Yorkie for a walk all the time. I was worried about the stroller not keeping its balance with the front wheel, but it's been fine and works well. I would buy another one of these.

This is not an all terrain stroller. It is better for sidewalks, malls etc. It does great for those but I wouldn't recommend it for snow/ice.

It's really not very good on rough or rocky terrain, although locking the front wheel will help a little (but that makes it harder to turn), and it's better than most strollers - I have yet to try ANY that are good for rough or rocky terrain. It's a beast just to get it up/down curbs and wobbles a lot, so best to stick to smooth surfaces. As long as I stay on pavement/sidewalks, it's a dream and I can handle it with one hand. If I'm going off-road for walks and hikes, we use the Kelty backpack instead :)

Yes, my mother uses hers on uneven pavements and sandy trails. Pushing the stroller on these surfaces is a little harder and it's a bumpy ride for the dog. The item is lightweight and works very well on smoother concrete surfaces.

So far I have not had that problem and I have been on some bumpy roads with the stroller. I will keep an eye on it though and if it happens I will let you know.
