Product Reviews of Strollometer Wireless Stroller Speedometer/Odometer (Black/Green)
Product Review: Great Product!
Summary: 5 Stars
We have been using this product on our jogging stroller for six months now and absolutely love it. Beyond the ease of use and now knowing how far we are jogging or walking, the company has the best customer service I have experienced in a long time. We had a small issue with ours and I got an immediate email response from the owner and a resolution to the problem right away. For that reason alone I would recommend this product to anyone I know or buy one as a gift for family and friends.Product Review: Great idea - Wish it worked

I bought this for my wife for Christmas and she was thrilled since she loves her bike odomenter and was interested in one for her stroller. Unfortunately, we had nothing but problems, from the computer contact not working (needed to have a 2nd one shipped to us) to the magnet not staying in position so it could record the wheel revolutions, to our toddler very easily ripping the sensor off the stroller, to the computer consistently freezing up on us. We are bummed to have sent our back and asked for a refund. Customer service was always great, but they couldn't fix the problems.Product Review: Great idea...needs work

I thought this would be great when my wife told me about it. It turns out however that the surface you walk on needs to be as smooth as glass for this to even be kind of remotely accurate. The best accuracy I could achieve was it clocking 1.4 miles for each mile we walked...and that was after a long time of set up. I even used digital calipers to accurately measure the wheels of the stroller. The sensor that reads the magnet on the wheel is so bouncy that I'm not sure it will get a correct reading with the slightest bumps in the road.
Would love to see the product improved.
Product Review: Great in Theory
Summary: 1 Stars
I was so excited to get the Strollometer as a shower gift. Unfortunately, it never worked for more than a week. Here are the issues:
- the sensor that attaches near the wheel moved every time we went over a bumpy sidewalk, road or curb, as well as when loading in and out of the car. regularly, it would knock off the magnet on the wheel, so it couldn't read any more.
- the battery life was really short. the founder said that it's because the unit constantly measures temperature. my bicycle computers have batteries that last for 2 years with constant use, yet this battery died after 1 month of use.
- there is no odometer, just a trip odometer. in other words, all your data is erased every night at midnight, so you can't track how far or fast you went over the past week, month, etc.
Overall, the reliability issues caused me to return it. 5 stars to Giggle for excellent customer service -- They tried personally to fix it three times and then refunded it when I gave up.
Product Review: Great product

This is great! It was very easy to put on the stroller and the directions were flawless. They even thought to put a centimeter ruler on the directions b/c you need the cm's of your stroller wheel/tire. I wish all products had directions like these!
