Baby Cargo Stroller 200 Series and Georgi Bag Review

I am a fairly new blogger.  I've only been blogging and doing reviews for about 6 months.  However, I am just a mama like so many of you.  I have no special review skills or expertise in these fields except that I have children and they are my first priority.  Every blogger has a goal.  Well, I've just reached my blogging goal and am ready to set another.  My goal was to review a stroller and I was lucky enough that the stroller I was given to review was a Baby Cargo Stroller 200 Series and the Georgi Bag.  They are AMAZING!  Let's review the stroller first. 

It's a lightweight umbrella stroller but not just some little, nothing-to-it umbrella stroller!  It has so many bells and whistles I'm not even sure that I've found them all yet. 

First thing I have to say that I notice was there really was no assembly.  Yes, I had to pop on the wheels, umbrella and cup holder, but that was it!  No tools needed.  Who doesn't love that?  The second thing I noticed was the color and chicness.  Is chicness a word?  It's so modern and it goes with everything!  The earthy tones are so nice. 

Let's head to Baby Cargo's website and see what they have to say about the 200 Series:

"Understated

Putting baby’s comfort first, Baby Cargo’s 200 Series Stroller is inspired by the durability and versatility of modern home furnishings. With subtly natural tone-on-tone colors, cottony-soft seat and sides, a multi-position backrest, and a water-resistant hood, the 200 brings baby home in style.
Ultra-lightweight black matte aluminum frame—sleek and rust free

• Soft sophisticated textiles, easy to clean
• Tailored designed back pocket with heavy zippers and a decorative brass Baby Cargo name plate, chic and practical for moms
• Super compact, easy to fold, perfect for vacations or trips to the shopping mall
• A multi-position adjustable backrest and adjustable leg rest"

My favorite part of the stroller is the size.  It's not little at all.  I'm not saying it's huge but I think it's a perfect size.  For its size you would think it was heavy but I have no problem carrying it with one hand while I carry FB with my other arm.  It only weighs 13.7 lbs.  At least that's what it states on Target.com, which is where you can buy it.  See the picture below, the 200 Series is on the left and an average umbrella stroller is on the right. 

Baby Cargo is on the left.

I am 5 foot tall even and my husband is over 6 feet tall.  An average umbrella stroller is short even for me, so it's way too short for my husband, who has to bend over just to push it.  The 200 Series is very comfortable for the parent to push.  FB and Diva, who are both under the weight limit of 50 lbs, love to stroll around in it.  Diva will be 5 years old in May.  She's got at least 10 lbs before reaching the weight limit of this stroller.

 

Back off ladies, he's married.

 

The Baby Cargo Stroller (200 Series) is made for cargo.  Not just your precious cargo (I mean baby if you didn't get that) but there is a netted basket at the bottom of the stroller (with 2 pockets in the netted basket) and a heavy duty back pocket that is big enough to carry a small clutch or a large wallet.  It has beautiful brass snaps to keep it closed for you also. 

 

 

The stroller folds easily with using only 1 hand.  I've had to do this several times while holding FB.  It's has a comfortable handle on the side when it's folded up to carry or a shoulder strap.  The seat reclines seamlessly with an adjustable strap.  It also has an adjustable leg rest.  So that when your little one is sleeping the legs have more room. 

 

 

 

The rain guard was a life saver when we took FB out on Halloween.  It was just drizzling but no one wants an infant getting rained on when it's so cold and windy out.  I don't just use the rain guard, which is I can put on or take off in a snap, only when it's raining.  I put it on when it's windy out too, it's helps to keep some of the wind off of her. 

In case you can't tell, this is Diva pushing her face against the rain guard.

 

Have I said how much I love the Baby Cargo 200 Series?  It is absolutely one of my favorite baby items.  Just behind the Georgi Bag!  Seriously, my favorite diaper bag EVER and it's specifically made for the Baby Cargo Stroller!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bag. 

 

 

 

I can't tell you how many bags I have bought in my 6 years of motherhood trying to find the right fit.  I really wanted a messenger bag that was big enough to be a diaper bag.  I have not been able to find one.  Well not until now.  The straps on the Georgi bags have a large adjustment range.  I can use it as a tote or a messenger bag.  Mine is a very beautiful earthy tone that's neutral and my husband has no problem carrying it because it's not "girlie".  Although the blue Georgi Bag shown below isn't "girlie," it is a beautiful color and would go with so much in my wardrobe.  While we are on the subject of girlie, the Georgi Bag has a very feminine design to it and I love it.  I also love that I can flip it over and it's not a feminine design so my husband can carry it without having ovaries grow. 

The pockets and internal compartments in this bag are unreal.  I mean really, there is a place for everything!  Let's see what the Baby Cargo site has to say about the Georgi Bag:

 

"Live differently.

 

With your ingenious Georgi bag on hand(le), your bottles are stowed, your hands are free, and your “put together” style quotient just went up. Brass details like grommets that slide smartly over your umbrella stroller handles and stylishly zippered seams lend heft and style, at once. But what transforms Georgi from fashion item to stroller bag “must” is versatility: beautiful lightweight fabric, a sturdy shoulder strap that snaps to your full-service stroller bar, and a wealth of pockets mean everything stays neatly in place.

• Beautiful lightweight fabric, brass details & stylishly zippered seams

• Universal Handle Hooks

• Brass grommet rings for umbrella strollers

• Attachment snaps for strollers with one handle

• Detachable/adjustable shoulder strap

• 2-side bottle pockets

• 7 interior pockets (1 lipstick, 1 wallet, 1 phone, 1 sunglass, 2 diaper pockets and 1 changing pad pocket)

• 5 exterior pockets (2 side bottle pockets, 1 zippered center front pocket, 2 front pockets)

• Zip closure to secure items"

 

I really can't express how much I adore this Stroller and Bag combination.  Each one in itself is a wonderful addition to any mama or dad's baby collection, but together they make the perfect pair.  You no longer have to take your big heavy stroller that takes 2 hands (which leaves no hand for the baby) to the mall for shopping.  I would always take it to mainly hold my diaper bag and other shopping bags in the bottom basket.  Now I can take my Baby Cargo 200 Series Stroller and Georgi Bag and not have to worry about throwing my back out when I'm getting the stroller in and out of the van. 

 

 

 

I recommend both the Baby Cargo 200 Series Stroller and the Georgi Bag for all mamas and dads everywhere!  You can purchase the Baby Cargo 200 Series Stroller at Target.com for $149.99nd the Georgi Bag at Amazon.com for $59.99
