Product Reviews of Strollometer Wheel-based Stroller Speedometer/Odometer
Product Review: LOVE THIS THING!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't even tell you how much I love this invention!!! I was having a few problems positioning the sensor/magnet, so I emailed the company from their website [...] (9 Months Up, 9 Months Down). I can't even begin to tell you the awesome customer service I received. Adi (co-founder) emailed me back immediately with pictures of my stroller and where everything should be positioned. Besides getting back to me right away, she is really personal and seems genuinely interested to ensure her product works well. I highly recommend this product!Product Review: Great on MaClaren Strollers!

I currently have a pair of Nike + shoes with the i-pod integration that gives you time/distance/etc. on your ipod. I purchased this stroller odometer because I realized how many times I am out walking with my stroller without my running shoes on. I couldn't be happier with the Strollometer!
Great things about the Strollometer include...
* The instructions are very well written and the installation process is easy. So is set up. The only tools needed are a coin (for opening the battery compartment) and a tape measure with centimeter measurement (for measuring the circumference of your wheels).
* The read-out is accurate. It almost matches my Nike + ipod readout exactly.
* The attachment easily adjust so that you can clearly read it while walking, yet it is not in the way of your hand grips or handles.
* The monitor is easy to use with only 3 buttons.
* The monitor easily detaches so it can be removed from the stroller.
* It traveling, like on a plane, where you need to remove the entire set up, both the handlebar piece and bottom sensor arm can be easily removed and reattached at your destination.
* The device does not interfere with the folding and unfolding of your stroller.
The only downfall of this item seems to be that magnet on the wheel could fall off after some use or while being handled by the airline, but they give you two additional replacement magnets. Be sure to clean your wheel with the alcohol pad provided and let it dry completely before applying the magnet to the wheel and wait 24 hours before use. The other catch is to apply it to the non-rubber part of the wheel (apply it to the hub-cap part of the wheel instead). The magnet also works best applied vertically instead of horizontally.
I have a MaClaren Triumph stroller. This is just a walking/travel style stroller, not a running stroller. I was easily able to install the magnet and sensor arm so that it is on the inside of the innermost wheel in the back.
Product Review: Great product, excellent customer service!!
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, I've been very satisfied with this product. There is some set-up involved but the included directions are very detailed and easy to follow.
I gave it 4 stars, instead of 5 due to some minor issues I've had. The first is that on my Bob stroller, the sensor kept jiggling out of place. However, after contacting the company, the owner not only called me to discuss the issue & help me troubleshoot--she also emailed me detailed photos of a suggested set up [which isn't included in the general instruction leaflet].
The second minor problem I encountered is that the strollometer monitor strap broke after about 3 months of use. Again, I contacted the company to order a replacement strap and I was sent one [free of charge!] immediately. Another testament to the company's high level of customer service.
The strollometer has been an invaluable device to help me track my distance traveled, speed, ambient temperature, etc. After using it, I can't work out without it! I know that the strollometer accurately records the correct distance, as I checked it against a track at a local university.
My experience with the company's owner has been fabulous and she is committed to ensuring that her customers are happy. The level of customer care that I've experienced with her, has been tops and I would whole heartedly recommend this product.
Product Review: Strollometer - GREAT product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love the strollometer. It works great - I have it on the Phil and Ted e3. The information seems very accurate and its so easy to use. It motivates me to walk because I can see the results right as I'm doing it. I can set a goal to walk three miles and its easy to track - as well as my speed. I love that it has the temperature too. Also, customer service through Strollometer.com is amazing. I misplaced one of the brackets and they replaced it free, which is awesome. I highly recommend this product for ANY new mom for use on ANY stroller.Product Review: finally a company that stands behind its product

I love my strollometer. Its such a addicting product! We had a small accident and needed a new piece.
Customer service was so easy to work with, and they gave me a few suggestions to make it even easier to use. Its my new favorite baby shower gift to give.
