Ladies with tall husbands....

My cousin told me that I have to find a stroller that is good for tall men since my DH is 6"1.

I'm 5'4

What stroller did you register for?

Re: Ladies with tall husbands....

My husband is 6'2 and Chicco has the adjustable handle. He is set on this stroller bc it is perfect height for both of us. I am also 5'11".

My husband is 6 foot One and we just had a regular Graco travel system, he said it was fine.

no problem. We tried the Graco one as well, however we couldn't find one that we liked the colors (we need neutral) and the handle didn't adjust. Also, the lady at the store said this would be a good one for us, bc we will obviously have a bigger baby, and tall, that might need the higher weight limit.

My DH is 6'4, and we have the City Single Jogging Stroller by Baby Jogger, I got it at BBB. My DH loves it cause it has a Multi-position adjustable handle!

Here is a pic of it...


If you don't like this one, try to find a stroller/jogger with an adjustable handle.

We have a Peg Perego. DH is 6'

I would look for adjustable handles if you're not tall. The reason you need a different stroller is their feet will hit the back of it when they walk - not to mention they'll be hunched over.

Re: Ladies with tall husbands....

My husband is 6'4" (I'm 5'3") we're getting the Inglesina Zippy- the handles aren't adjustable, I made him take it for test walks around BBB on several visits and he says its fine (?)- maybe he just doesn't want to deal. He also feels that since he'll have a Baby Bjorn if its awful he'll have a back-up plan.

I'm 6'1" (DH is the short one in this relationship Chat Icon ) and got the Bugaboo Cameleon and Peg Perego Venezia MT because the push bars seemed the highest to me.

Re: Ladies with tall husbands....

I read that if the DH is tall, go for test runs in the store b/c some strollers can be very uncomfortable for tall guys. I can't help further b/c DH and I are both short!!!!

My DH is 6'4 and the Graco Travel System is fine for him. We do also have the Jeep umbrella stroller and that is def. too small for him. He complains that it is too short everytime we use it.
