Joolz Day 3- Features  

Seating options  

One of the great features about this Joolz Day³ is that it comes with one seat frame, a toddler seat fabric, and the bassinet fabric that you can switch over based on your needs.   

The seat and harness  

The first thing is how comfortable the seat is? Our tester moms found their baby smiling while seated. This $1000+ stroller delivers cushiony and ergonomic, intuitively fits your loved little toddler. The maximum weight capacity is 50 lbs. The seat is positioned higher so that you don’t have to bend to reach the baby and can be used as a high chair at a restaurant.  

The seat is reversible in both ways: parent facing and forward facing, reclinable in three positions: sit, relax and sleep. Moreover, the seat has an adjoining adjustable footrest, easy to adjust, and telescopic footrest. The cot design is compact with plenty of spaces, has an easy one-hand remove belly bar, and a padded 5-point harness system for comfort.   

The harness is ergonomic and serves safety purposes. At the same time, it allows your baby to have the proper posture when tummy and back muscles are developing. 10/10.   

Bassinet  

The bassinet compatibility makes the Joolz Day³ newborn-ready. It is spacious and attachable with a standard click system. The mattress of the bassinet is completely hypodermic and blendable. The cool thing is that the canopy has two mesh windows: a zipped meshed ventilation and mesh ventilation at the back of the seat for healthy airflow necessary for your baby. Thereby you can keep an eye on it without unzipping mesh ventilation each time you want to have a peek. The bassinet fabric is also foldable for easy transport. There is a belly bar included for added safety.  

Car Seat 

Yes, the frame is car seat compatible. But you have to buy a car seat adapter separately since it does not come up with the box. Car-seat compatibility is a feature that is vital for you if you run errands too often. Attaching an adapter, you can attach popular Maxi-Cosi, Nuna, Joie, or Cybex car seats.

Frame and handlebar  

The frame/chassis with robust, lightweight aluminum material and an adjustable handlebar for taller parents. The telescopic handlebar is user-friendly and easy to adjust, the grip comfortable.   

Canopy 

The canopy of Joolz Day³ is a standard one. It is expandable and has a canopy with a mesh inlet and a sun flap. It offers SPF 50+ protection to protect your baby from the sun’s harmful rays.     

Wheels, suspension, and brake 

Joolz did splendidly on the wheels. The foam-filled wheels are puncture-resistant and easy to glide over all types of terrains. The rear wheel is larger (12 inches) and the front wheels are 360-degree swiveling and for easy maneuvering over busy streets and alleys and lockable for rougher terrains.   

• All 4-wheel suspension coupled with the all-terrain tire ensures a smooth ride over terrains.     
• The brake is placed at the rear bottom of the frame. Its marked red for easy and convenient to use.  

Storage basket

You will love the spacious storage basket on Joolz Day³ that can hold up to 22 lbs. The basket is highly accessible with the help of a spring mechanism.    

Foldability   

Even with the bold decision to cut down the auto-lock option, Joolz designers did a splendid job managing the compact shape fold of this full-sized stroller. With a few simple and easy steps, the stroller stands fold for garage storage. You can easily fold with an attached seat. In case you are using a bassinet, you have to remove the bassinet before folding it.  

How to fold 

• Folding with the seat is only possible with the seat facing forward  
• Pull back your canopy and pull in the footrest and then adjust your seat to this relaxing position   
• Press the metal lever at the bottom of the handle extension to slide in the handle.  
• Find a trigger underneath (a little white safety button), and pull up the trigger.   
• The handle will fold down.   
• Make slight adjustment for a standing fold (if needed)  
• You can remove the wheel for a more compact form if required.
