The global stroller manufacturing relies on China, and the manufacturing of Chinese strollers depends on good children. Founded in 1989, Goodbaby is the world's largest brand operator of children's durable goods and the largest distributor and retailer of maternal and infant products in China. Before its listing in Hong Kong in 2010, Goodbaby had been focusing on OEM manufacturing, with many brands under the Dorel Industrial Group such as Quinny, Maxi-cosi, and safety 1st, all have a history of entrusting good children to OEM carts. After the acquisition of Sebex in Germany and Evenflo in the United States in 2014, Goodbaby's own high-end stroller brand "GB" has gradually been promoted to the European and American markets, realizing the gorgeous transformation from OEM to brand.
Goodbaby has formed the largest offline retail platform for strollers in China, with more than 5,000 self-operated retail outlets in China, and is also open to foreign brands such as Quinny to share store resources.
Although the models are complete, there is still a big gap between Goodbaby and European brands in high-landscape vehicles and all-terrain vehicles, while the lightweight models are quite competitive, and the Hummingbird series, Pockit pocket car series, and Swan swan stroller range in weight from 3kg to 6kg, all of which are popular overseas and favored by awards.
The Pockit pocket car series is a representative product of Goodbaby going abroad, folding the size like a large women's backpack, and won the German iF Product Design Gold Award and the Guinness World Record for the "World's Smallest Folding Stroller". Although the pocket car is lightweight, the aluminum alloy frame is still strong and durable, weighing about 5.2kg, so you can carry it on the plane without any burden. Although the seat back angle is relatively limited, it still sells well in the U.S. and European markets due to its ultra-light size, and the price in China is around 2,000 yuan. It should be noted that each foot of the pocket car series has two wheels, and the outer wheels of such carts are prominent, which is easy to be stepped on by others and cause overturning, so you should avoid going to crowded places.
Launched in 2018, the Swan has a strong sense of lines, with a frame made of carbon fiber, which is lighter and stiffer than aluminium, and weighs only 6kg. Carbon fiber is already widely used in top-of-the-line sports cars and bicycles, and this is the first time it has been used in strollers. As the winner of the 2018 German Red Dot Supreme Award, Swan's functionality is also remarkable, the push rod can be switched back and forth, sitting and lying for both purposes, easy to fold, and is also compatible with carrycots and safety seats, which is a value-for-money choice at a price of 3,000 yuan, and it is also the most comfortable one among the carts weighing about 6kg.
The Hummingbird series is an enduring star series, which is small and lightweight, sitting and lying down, and can be folded with one hand. There are two versions of D829 and D819, weighing 4.4kg and 3kg respectively, D829 is more comfortable, and the pushrod can also switch directions back and forth, the price is more than 2000 yuan, nearly 1000 yuan more expensive than D819.
In addition, Goodbaby also has a variety of models under 1000 yuan, and the frame material is generally iron or carbon steel, which cannot achieve the advantages of aluminum alloy frame being strong and lightweight. In contrast, it is recommended to buy the same "Xiaolong Habi" cart under Goodbaby, which has a variety of aluminum alloy frame carts to choose from within 1000 yuan, which is cost-effective.
