Britax Vigour Stroller Black

Britax Vigour Stroller Black Whether you're introducing your baby to the wonders of the outdoors, or simply making your way through the supermarket, the Vigour from Britax is the ideal companion. This full-size aluminum stroller accommodates children up to 40 pounds, and is compatible with the Britax Companion infant carrier (sold separately) to create a convenient travel system. The Vigour also uses a "click and go" method that makes it simple to move from car to stroller: just click the infant carrier onto the lightweight aluminum stroller frame and you're off!

The Britax Vigour offers:
  • Lightweight aluminum frame.
  • Removable seating unit can be attached forward or rear-facing.
  • Four 12-inch pneumatic tires for stability.
  • Oversized storage basket.




The Vigour uses a five-point harness to keep your child secure. View larger.
User-Friendly Design That Grows with Your Child
The Vigour is made with both your and your child's comfort and convenience in mind. First, to keep up with growth spurts, the removable seating unit, made of durable denier fabrics, conveniently attaches in either a forward or rear-facing position. While traveling, the easy-to-use, five-point harness keeps your child safe and secure. In addition, the stroller also conveniently folds flat with the seating unit attached; for an even more compact fold, you have the option of removing the seating unit.

Four Wheel Stability for a Smooth Ride
Your busy day and your child's curiosity can take you in a multitude of different directions--from around the park to the mall. That's why the Vigour boasts four swiveling and locking wheels with 12-inch pneumatic tires that can handle a wide variety of different terrain with ease. All-wheel suspension keeps things steady, and the dual rear brakes operate with just one quick touch should you need to make a sudden stop.

Comfort and Convenience
The Vigour gives your child a truly comfortable ride, thanks to the plush, ergonomic seating area with leg rest and removable arm bar. Infinite recline positions ensure that your child can lean back while napping or sit up to see the world--all at an angle that's perfect for him or her.

The generous over-sized storage basket is ideal for holding toys, snacks and extra clothes. The removable canopy is great for protecting baby's tender skin on sunny days, and the reflective piping ensures that on-coming vehicles and pedestrians can see your child, even in low-light conditions. The Vigour weighs just 29 pounds and measures 36.25 x 25.25 x 44 inches (WxHxD). It comes with a limited 1-year limited warranty.

The Vigour is also available in the following colors: Blue/Tan, Aqua/Black, and Plum/Tan. It is compatible with the following Britax Companion Infant Car Seats: Onyx, Black/Tan, Unity Blue, Plum/Tan, and Aqua/Black.

Customer Review: Great Stroller
It took us some research to decide on this stroller, but we're very pleased with this purchase.
Pro: It has huge wheels that makes it very stable, sturdy. Perfect with the Companion infant seat. It's very nice looking and a lot cheaper than PegPrego, or Boogaboo, so you feel different when you go out (kind of like using AMEX black...) I have other mothers talking to me or smiling to me in the mall, because they have the same strollers!
Con: It's very big, so if you have a small car, it may not fit. Even with our Volvo XC 70, it feels cramped in the trunk. Without taking the seat off, it's almost impossible for a petite girl like me to lift it and put it in the car. And when this thing is in the trunk, forget about going grocery shopping.
Overall this is a very good stroller and I would recommend to anyone who has a big cargo space.
Customer Review: Good stroller and support after the fact has been excellent
We purchased the stroller 9 months ago. We loved it, but on our first plane trip a plastic part that holds the handle to the base broke. The stroller was still operable, but on the next plane trip the other part broke. Now it's inoperable. We contacted Britax and there customer service took care of the situation by sending us a new stroller to replace this one without charge. We love the stroller and based on their response this is product issue, they have very, very happy customer and advocate for their company.


Also, for some reason I could not change my original rating once I submitted my comments. I rate this product and company a 5.
