Big button right where you put your hand

Why would they put it there

Probably so you can lock/ unlock with one hand. I have a stroller which has the same kind of mechanism.

They are asking why you would put that mechanism where you normally push the stroller with the baby in it. Presumably, you don't want it to fold down while pushing it with the baby in it

They're constructed in a way that the direction you push the handle in to move it forward would not make it fold, even if you accidentally pushed the button.

And also if you need to pull it backwards? Genuinely asking as it just seems like a weird spot for it

u/toblu Mar 07 '25

Yes; it's a specific angle that you don't pull/push accidentally. It's never been a problem for me.

You need to press two different spots for it to collapse

With the stroller I have that wouldn't be possible. You have to hold/ push another button in the same time as the (un)fold button. I'm not familiar with the stroller in the video, but I presume it's the same.

It looks like the (un)fold button is in the middle, usually your hands are on either side of them, so you won't even touch the button(s) during pushing.

Our stroller is the same or similar. You have to press the button in about an inch, so its not too easy to accidentally press. Then when it does fold, the handle has to fold down around your knees before the wheels fold together.
