You should also consider how the stroller will fit in your home. You must ensure that the stroller can fit in your closet or trunk before purchasing it. You should also measure any doorways you will have to cross when the stroller is in use. Standard doorways are between 30 and 36 inches wide, but some are a bit narrower.
