Here are some of the features parents would like about this uniquely compact inline stroller:. If you have mistaken the Phil and Teds Dot for a rugged all terrain jogging stroller, you are not alone.
But sorry if I disappoint you, it is only recommended for light jogging, and so also is the Navigator. You and your child or children will however enjoy great features on the stroller that deliver as much comfort and benefits as you find in bigger baby joggers. Slim and light weight, it is a stroller city dwelling parents will particularly like for running every day errands with their children, from newborns up to 5 years.
The following are important dimensions and capacity of the Dot stroller that may help you decide if it is the right stroller for your family. When used with carrycot or infant car seat that are optional accessories, the Dot can carry newborns; and used alone, it will carry children from 4 months up to the age of 5 or 44 pounds in weight.

Favorable reviews and high ratings are always good indicators of a good product. You will be pleased to learn that at the time of writing this review, the average online customer satisfaction rating is 4. Not everyone gave the Dot top mark, but such a high score by majority of parents who have used the stroller is strong testimony that Moms and Dads love the stroller.
Here are some of the ways parents have described their experience with the Dot Bugger Stroller:. A very versatile all-in-one stroller, and well worth the money, remarked a satisfied mom.
Fantastic wee buggy, so zippy and easy to maneuver, another parent commented. The stroller is stylish, compact, very maneuverable, and looks great. Overall, I am happy with the Dot Buggy, chipped in another parent online. And a Dad concludes his experience with the Dot by highly recommending it if you have 2 little kids, adding that it takes so little space in storage, and is very easy to maneuver.
Though the Dot has a very a high customer satisfaction rating, as close to any of the best strollers I have reviewed, I would be disappointed if no one has complained about one or even two things about the stroller they do not like. No single stroller will completely satisfy what every parent would want out of a baby Buggy or stroller, not even one as versatile as the Dot.
That did not surprise me, as some babies are born bigger than others, and grow really quick. So any compact stroller will have similar issue with fast growing babies. There is some assembling required to put the stroller together, and the best way to handle this is to first read the easy to follow manual for the Dot stroller, watch the quick video on how to install it, and then give it a go. Some parents fail to read the manual, or watch the easily to follow instructional, then struggle and complain.
Overall, I have not seen a serous issue that is a deal breaker for the Dot, if you want a versatile and very compact buggy stroller. I am thinking of getting a phil and teds pushchair for my toddler and baby, toddle will be 2.
I've heard a few diff things about them like they are the same sized chassis so the same size seats yet on calling kiddicare today they measured the seats and they're diff, an inch deeper on baby and toddler seat on the navigator than the dot. I much prefer the look of the dot but if that inch seat depth makes that much diff I will get the navigator, what do you think?
Navigator main seat is 10" to dots 9" and 2nd seat is 9" to dots 8" - or there abouts. Also how many of you had a rear facing seat for your 2nd baby? The navigator has the option of a rear facing seat only using one seat- toddler has to walk where as the dot you can't But how often will I use it with just the baby? Thank you!!!

Not much help but I am having this decision to make too!
