Lightweight Pediatric Strollers


Every parent knows strollers are essential for getting around with babies and young children. Safety, convenience and extra cargo room are just a few of the many benefits of a well-equipped stroller. For those with special needs children, the importance of a high-quality, supportive and durable stroller cannot be overstated. Strollers provide much-needed freedom, safety and mobility for disabled children and their parents.

Rehabmart.com  offers a variety of light weight strollers to fit every need. The Special Tomato Buggy Stroller is a must-have stroller for parents who need a versatile, portable stroller that is lightweight (only 16 lbs.) and folds up like an umbrella when not in use. This sturdy aluminum stroller holds a child up to 55 lbs. and will grow with your child with its padded, adjustable shoulder straps. The all-wheel spring suspension and swivel front wheels will get you through a crowded mall or a park with ease.
