Reviews--Baby Trend Trendsport LITE 2 1520

Baby Trend Trendsport LITE 2 1520

It's hard to beat the price of Baby Trend's Trendsport LITE 2. At less than $40, it has many of the same features of full-size strollers three times the price.

we like its large wheels because they make steering easier, particularly over uneven surfaces. The wheels measure a full 5-1/4 inches, and we only wish they had independent suspension. However, that would likely add to the price, so we're satisfied with the large wheels alone.

The Baby Trend Trendsport LITE 2 has a lightweight steel frame that weighs only 12 pounds, as well as a generous canopy and padded handle. We were surprised to learn the seat reclines to two different positions. This is an unusual and welcome feature on a low-priced stroller. Unfortunately, the stroller's recline feature isn't as easy to use or comfortable as we would have liked.

The stroller has a three-point harness. One cautionary note: Be careful with the harness buckle -- it can pinch. We've accidentally pinched not only our own fingers during testing, but also nearly pinched our young passenger.

We like the Baby Trend Trendsport LITE 2 for its convenience items, such as the parent tray and child tray, both with cup holders. We also like the Trendsport LITE 2's footrest, which isn't a feature you always find on an umbrella stroller. It has an easy-to-use trigger fold, which can be done with one hand, and it's easy to carry.

Overall, the Baby Trend Trendsport LITE 2 has many features you'd expect on models costing much more. While this is certainly a benefit, don't expect the Trendsport LITE 2 to compete with the performance of a full-size luxury stroller. As an umbrella stroller, however, it is convenient, simple to use and worth the less-than-$40 price tag.
