VIVO Black 4 Wheel Pet Stroller for Cat, Dog and More, Foldable Carrier Strolling Cart, STROLR-V001K

I never had a reason to buy a stroller for my fur baby, until now. I needed it for a weekend of outside festivities where my little one needed shade and a place to lay down (I also bought a stroller fan separately and it hooked onto numerous places just great!). This stroller pushes flawlessly and with ease. It also has cup holders, a bottom section to hold things, a cushion for the inside, multiple places to open/zip close, and a comfy handle. It also folds with a slight pull from the side parts, and unfolds in a snap. It also is very light and not heavy, yet heavy duty! I bought this particular stroller because it was the only one that had the fastest delivery (decided on the purchase last minute) and this was meant to be.. I’m in absolute LOVE with this stroller! It’s honestly under priced, if I used this stroller without knowing the price I would say it cost $250 easy. Don’t hesitate if you want a stroller, buy this one now!! ((I read some of the negative reviews - First off, if the wheels don’t spin it’s because they’re LOCKED in the front (the little gray part in the front needs to be pushed down). Second, it wheels just fine on pavement, grass, wet grass, stone, tile and carpet. Third, there is not a lot of putting together and putting apart. Watch the product video because it shows everything, but for some reason the woman has a hard time closing and opening it, you can literally open it with one hand and fold it easier than she did. And the vent window in the back also unzips so you can take out your fur baby from the back.))

I have a 27-lb dog in a downtown high-rise, and taking him "out" generally involves walking him down the hall, taking him down the elevator, down another hall, then around the corner of the block to his "spot". This is a cumbersome even in the best of circumstances. It's really, really cumbersome in the winter time when he has to be suited up in a coat and can't use his back legs after spinal surgery. When the vet says to abandon pee pads and get him outside, you have to make do.I'm undergoing my own medical treatment, so it's very tough to hold him over long distances and for a long time. This stroller saved my back and my sanity. There are so many neat features. First of all, it's perfectly roomy for him. He's a compact/muscular French bulldog, so it may not be long enough if your less dense 27-lb pup wishes to lie flat in it, but it's perfectly sized for him. He only lies down about 5% of the time anyway. The rest of the time, he's sitting up.Assembly was easy, took about 5 minutes. Directions were fairly straightforward, but the parts are somewhat obvious, so you don't really need to rely too hard on the directions. Breakdown is also easy. Can store this in my storage cage downstairs when not in use.The floor is sturdy, solid and well-padded with a removable pad for cleaning. The pad's cover is removable as well. Only when I removed it did I notice two fixed tethers with latches at the end for hooking to his collar or harness. A nice touch. I've cleaned the rest of the stroller as needed with a damp sponge and liquid soap or Nature's Miracle.It's very lightweight but very sturdy. He can do his vigorous shake, and I don't think it'll fall apart or topple over on me. I wouldn't wander off with him in it, but I feel confident letting go of it while I check the mail or similar. Glad we got the 4-wheel version, as it no doubt has better stability up front than the 3-wheel version, and now that he's on the mend and trying to become more mobile, he likes to lean a little too far forward on walks. That brings me to another feature that I don't know is intentional or not, but on the two occasions he's lurched forward suddenly, the stroller suddenly stopped, and I noticed a brake had been thrown. If that's by design, yay.The two brakes are a soft plastic, maybe polypropylene, so don't throw too much of your weight on them. Be gentle, and they should last a long time. Also, don't force the stroller to move when a brake is engaged or push on the brakes too hard when engaging or disengaging. It's a soft plastic but it should be durable for a while unless overstressed.The cupholders and storage bin up top are so useful for treats, clean poop bags and yeah, the dirty, tied-shut one I toss in one of the holders on the way to the trash bin. The storage bin underneath is plenty roomy for wipes, extra baggies, leashes, whatever you want, really. There's not a lot of vertical space on TOP of it, so you can't shove a big box down there even if it would fit in the storage compartment itself.The one thing I was wishing this stroller had for two weeks is a zipper to close the front mesh so doggie can't take a flying leap out. Then my neighbor showed me it was there! The zipper was barely visible to me, but it's a lifesaver. I don't use it for quick walks outside, but if we're going on a longer walk with more enticing sights (people, other dogs), I surely zip it closed. Again, be careful with it, as there's a fair amount of tension on it. Bring the two sides together with your hands before zipping closed, and it'll last a long time.The vents in front and back are nice for general ventilation and seeing what your pet is up to. There's also a flap on top you can open with mesh underneath to allow for extra ventilation or visibility.Height of this stroller is totally comfortable to me. I'm about 5'10" and often wear short heels, and the handle height is perfect. The ONE complaint I have is the front wheels. If they were larger diameter, they could handle less flush curbs. Hit a curb ramp that's not entirely level, and careful the stroller and your pet don't lurch forward. The wheels appear to be a high-density foam, not a solid plastic, but they're durable enough for the price point.All in all, this is the best money I've ever spent. I don't know how I would've handled my pup's surgery without this.

Relatively easy to put together. I put it together myself and I’m rather challenged in that area! Lol It took me like 15 minutes, with some cuss words. I did take a mini break so that I wouldn’t have a total YouTube worthy greatest freak out video. But it’s doable. I got it out together without a total melt down, and then felt rather proud of myself...It’s a little cheap feeling. The wheels especially. I dunno how these wheels will hold up in time on my rocky bumpy mountain roads. They are kind of a cheap plastic. Also the zippers and material feel cheap. But I think with careful use, it will be alright. Especially at the price. Rubber tires would’ve been better but then it probably would’ve drove up the price.I love all the space and such to store drinks, purse, snacks, laptop, easel, paints, kitchen sink, whatever.I took my chihuahua named, “Pringles” in it, she’s a larger chihuahua, like 12 pounds. She fit in there nicely and seemed to enjoy the ride. Except when we went up hills, then she was a little scared, but it didn’t stop her from being her usual obnoxious self, barking at an innocent jogger. (Insert embarrassed eyeroll)I had to come back here to amazon to watch the video to figure out how to fold it up. The bar came loose from the wheel and I had to put that back together when I unfolded it again, but whatever, not a big deal. Took two seconds to secure it back on.I got this because my dog refuses to go for a walk and when she does, she is a total turd! I’m trying to get her acclimated to being out and about. I also have issues with vertigo, so I thought this would be a good way for us to get out and I can use this to kind of steady myself on days where I’m feeling off balance. I feel like even on days I feel off balance, I can still go out with my turd dog!I’d say it was worth the money. Good price.... we will see how the wheels hold up though!
