Eli we have missed you! So happy to see you reviewing baby products again. I was devastated to learn you wouldn’t be here to help me through my pregnancy. Your opinion is valued
Soon to be first time dad here that was tasked with the stroller buying. Man, what a wormhole to fall into! After doing a lot of research through this channel and others, we wound up with the Cruz. The overall quality and sheer amount of good reviews won us over. After receiving and assembling it, it definitely lived up to the hype. The height was great for my wife and I as well, both being on the taller side at 5'8" and 6'8".
Your knowledge and videos helped me prepare for both my pregnancies, I'm SO BEYOND happy to see you back and helping other parents in their journeys!!💖💖
We ended up buying the uppababy vista V2 after watching one of the previous videos. We've been using it for 1.5y now and while I do agree with all the pro's mentioned, I'd like to add 2 aspects that for some might be important: 1. because the seat doesn't become fully horizontal, it's highly uncomfortable for a baby to sleep in it (my son's legs are either above his chest when the seat is fully reclined or he's too high up and his head keeps moving left to right.) 2. It's impossible to change his diaper while laying on it, due to the same reason. These are 2 things that we do quite often and despite it being a practical and sturdy pram, I don't think I'd go for it again.
Hi Eli!! Found you just yesterday, and I LOVE your videos. So helpful and educational. We live in So, Cal in the suburbs and need your help as a first-time mom to a 7-month-old looking for a new stroller. Our son is about to outgrow his infant car seat, and we are planning on selling our travel system (Maxi Cosi Zelia). Although we LOVE our Maxi Cosi for its lightweight, easy usage, easy to maneuver, easy to fold down, and extremely easy to put in and take out from our car (sedan), we are looking for a different brand (specifically Nuna). Our travel system seems to be an older year model (it was a gift from my Brother-in-law, who had it stored for years) and is wearing quicker than we like, specifically the handlebar since it is a foam-like material. We are looking into the Nuna because our research findings told us that they LAST, and the price is worth every penny. I'm also IN LOVE with their minimalistic design that is timeless. However, we are unsure which stroller to invest in. We plan to have more babies, so the Demi Grow was ideal for the double stroller feature. However, we don't like the engineer of how the second seat is literally under the top seat and how it lays into the storage basket, taking up half the space. The other con we found with the Demi was how heavy it is. We are so used to the lightweight of the Zelia that the weight of the Demi is a downer for us. The second Nuna we are interested in is the Mixx Next. The ONLY downside for this one was the small basket it comes with. We don't travel a lot, but when we do, we do an all-day outing, which means we pack a lot (I'm also an over-packer). The Mixx was ideal for us with the exception of the basket size. One other small thing that wasn't ideal for us from the MIXX was the placement of the wheel brakes. Since I'm an over-packer, we tried placing everything we normally take with us (Diaper bag, two 64oz water bottles, and sometimes our baby carrier), and the items blocked the wheel brake. Out of these two strollers, which one do you believe is a better choice? With our next baby, we are planning to purchase the Pippa Infant Car seat + its adapter to the stroller and currently looking into the Exec Convertible car seat for our 7-month-old. Thank you in advance
Hi Eli! Good to see you back! Since you’re no longer limited to the items you sell in store, could you expand reviews to more affordable brands such as graco, evenflo, Chico etc? Thanks!
Hi I love your videos and currently stuck on what to get. We live in NYC and I have a 2 year old and 8 month old. I was looking for an all terrain but light double stroller that I can use in all seasons. We recently bought a side by side jeep stroller but I’m not too fond of it yet. I haven’t used it though. Any recommendations?
Much love all the way from Amsterdam. This is the best channel. Really helpful, great content and up to date information. I watched all your video's. Hope you continue. As an upcomming dad this channel guided me through all the unknown about strollers, carseats and much more

What happened?
My husband has been waiting for you to release this stroller video!!! We are currently watching it together and am really grateful for Eli's insights!
Hooray! Let me know if you have any questions. You can DM me on Instagram @mbeansdotcom

Tell me about it, what a wormhole, I didn’t even know this category of RUclips existed before 😂
Welcome to my wormhole. Let me know how I can help. You got this! Eli.

What are your thoughts on the Silver Cross Wave single-to-double stroller? I was surprised to not see that one on your list!

I’m hoping to
How do you feel about silver cross vs Nuna ? (Single strollers)
I love you are back!!!
The best is back! 😻
Do you have a recommendation for a reversible (both parent or forward facing) compact travel stroller? it seems hard to find one!
I am still overwhelmed with what stroller/carseat to get! First baby due May 1st.
You can DM me on IG at @mbeansdotcom

I get a VALCO Trend duo. It isnt exactly all terrain But it’s lightweight. It will be great for the city.
Hi! Thoughts on nuna trvl vs the new lx? Thanks!
I’m trying to find out which is the best single stroller? Does anybody know?
I'm so confused, the website says magic beans is closed but this video is so recent! Did I happen upon the website like RIGHT after it shut down?
Much love all the way from Amsterdam.
This is the best channel. Really helpful, great content and up to date information.

Thank you so much :) -Eli
Any chance you could review the silver cross tide? Thank you!
Which travel strollers have an adjustable handlebar?
Eli, you’re a legend!!!!
Staahp:)
Thule Shine vs. Nuna Triv Next!! Someone help! I can’t decide! 😩
Do you review chicco products? if so will you be reviewing the new chicco fit360 car seat?
I’ve been trying to get in touch with Chicco -. I’d love to review their products
Thanks for all your videos! I purchased the Nuna Mixx Next ❤
Eli!!! QUESTION! What do you think about the new nuna ivvi totl??????? Can you do a review please!!?!! THANKS
It’s not new. It’s quite an old model. I’d get a Demi Grow instead - the IVVI is very big imho
Dang I’m surprised the silver cross reed didn’t make the list
whaaa? i thought you were done? gosh im pumped, make sure folks know because i almost unsubscribed before
I’m done with retail, but I’m not done with the video :)
@@MagicBeansVideos this is glorious! thanks
@@MagicBeansVideosthat’s glad to hear :)
Hi! First time mom here. Do you offer virtual consultations? I am feeling super overwhelmed with all of the stroller and car seat options.
Feel free to DM me on Instagram @mbeansdotcom
@@MagicBeansVideos I just did! Thank you so much!
Do you have a video on affordable double strollers that aren't $600 over 1k? Good strollers that are under $350
Coming soon
I loved my Nuna stroller so much for my baby but once he was 1/2 years old it was not comfortable for him. Not good for toddler.
What stroller did you get?
What about the austlen entourage 2?
I like the Entourage but it’s a niche product
thank you for this video
No Thule? That's the best for the decade!
Thule Urban Glide 3 is coming out soon. I’m excited
“One of ur most popular strollers” 😂 you forgot for a moment didn’t you Eli.
