Caring for your Combi Double Stroller

No one wants to buy a new combi double stroller again and again because their old one didn't last. While choosing a more durable one can help your combi double stroller last longer, the best way to prolong a stroller's useful life is to take care of it.

Wash Regularly

A clean and hygiene combi double stroller will give your child greater comfort and at the same time ensuring his/her health. Children can get very messy and cleaning of their strollers becomes even more essential. Most stroller fabrics are removable and they should be washed frequently to keep them fresh and looking new. Clean the frame of the combi double stroller as well as its wheels every once in a while. Most of all, sun your combi double stroller as often as possible. Sunning the stroller kills bacteria and rids the stroller of any odours.

Take note of your stroller's weight

Your child may be well below the combi double stroller capacity, but watch for the other items that you may have placed in the stroller. Using the combi double stroller to carry beyond its rated capacity can lead to gradually bending of the frame or minor cracks and breakages on its frame. Make sure you follow the instructions that came with the combi double stroller. Using your stroller as it should will prolong the life of your combi double stroller.

Watch out for rugged tracks

Just like your car isn't going to last long on poor roads, your stroller won't last very long if you take it on rugged tracks either. Rocky, jagged roads should be avoided when pushing the combi double stroller with your child in it. Not only does the poor road condition damage the wheels and frame of the stroller, it is also dangerous for your child to be rocking within the stroller.

Store in a dry location

Before you keep your combi double stroller, always make sure it is dry. Similarly, the storage location should be relatively dry. Sun your stroller dry if possible, especially if you have washed the fabrics. Keep dehydrating powder boxes with the stroller to keep it dry. Water can cause rust on the combi double stroller frame, particularly at the joints. Fabrics will also grow mouldy if not properly dried.
