Stroller Rain Covers

[becka]

HELP!!

We purchased a Combi Savvy Soho (of something like that) today for our trip in 3 weeks. We loved that it was so lightweigh and compact but it also looked like it would be comfy for DS.

We could not find a stroller rain cover for it at the store but I was not concerned because I figured I could probably order it online. Well it looks like they don't make one for this stroller. Does anyone know of a cover that will work? I really don't want DS to get wet if it starts to pour during the trip! We figure a garbage bag would go over it outside of rides but that obviously won't work if DS is a passenger.

Thanks...any help is appreciated.

I bought a pretty generic rain cover at Target, it worked on a lightweight stroller as well as my cousin's son's travel system for an infant. I think it was about $7? Maybe there or Wal Mart would have one that would either work or could be adapted so you ge tthe benefits like air vents?

Here's one for only $7.99. Says it will cover any stroller.

Thank you disneymama! I think I will buy from choochoobaby.com. I was looking for a double cover. You helped me also!

You're welcome! I'm glad I could help. Those double-stroller rain covers are hard to find!

just one thing - these rain covers look like they rely on the hood to hold them up - that's great if you have a hood, but if you don't , then they won't work.

You can get a pop-up one if you don't have a hood -

Personally, I prefer the first kind, but I would hate you to be stuck because you didn't realise about the hood (or a canopy would work too)

Thanks so very much!

I feel much better now knowing that one exists and the stroller has a canopy so we should be all set.

It is amazing the things that start to come up in the days leading up to a trip. I thought I was prepared to take my DS to WDW but everyday it seems like I think of something I am not prepared for.

In the US, the chain with the largest selection of covers tends to be Baby Depot, the baby dept. of the Burlington Coat Factory stores. They usually will have several styles and sizes available at any given time, and they carry single, double, and tandem.

However, BD does not do refunds, only store credits, so take your stroller with you when you go there to find a cover.
