Cybex Ruby Stroller

The tiny Formica Japonica, the Japanese wood ant, weighs a mere 0.004 grams. However, using her powerful mandibles*, this powerful little gal can lift five times her own weight. This is the equivalent of your average mom lifting a motorcycle, or perhaps a small bison.

The Cybex Ruby Stroller, like the wood ant, is tiny but powerful: it’s an extremely lightweight stroller, weighing only 11 pounds, but it can carry a child has heavy as 55 pounds! And this dainty little jewel has an enormous canopy, and rear-wheel suspension for a wonderfully smooth ride.

This lightweight umbrella stroller packs a lot of comfort features into a small space: there’s that wonderful suspension for rough roads, and you can lock the swiveling front wheels, too. A slight recline makes the Cybex Ruby stroller comfier at naptime, and the removable, washable seat fabric has mesh on both sides to let cool breezes in during summer strolls.

Our favorite feature on the Cybex Ruby, though, is the enormous adjustable stroller canopy. This UV-protective canopy gives your child tons of coverage from the bright sun, and gives you plenty of options for positioning. You can even adjust its height on the sides to accommodate a taller child. And speaking of height, the Cybex Ruby is a great lightweight stroller for tall parents, with nice tall handles padded with foam. A flip-flop friendly foot brake and a handy accessible basket add convenience as well.

Finally, when strolling is over, the Cybex Ruby stroller has an easy and compact fold, which locks in place. Pick it up by the stroller strap and you’re off. Leave the heavy hauling to the ants!

* Did you know that worker ants are all female?
