Adi Weber, co-inventor of the Strollometer, with her kids. | Made by Parents, for Parents
Co-invented by Adi and Don Weber, the Strollometer is the product of parents who wanted to get more out of their strolls. Our inspiration for the Strollometer came about one month after I gave birth to our third child, Deena. I would often take my daughter on strolls in an attempt to squeeze in a good workout while she napped. Unfortunately, I never knew how far I went, how fast I strolled, or whether my "workout" would ever measure up to the workouts I was familiar with at my gym. Nothing designed for bikers or walkers gave me the information, accuracy or ease I wanted.The idea for the Strollometer was born. And by designing it from the ground up, we made sure it could easily strap-on to any stroller--whether it's traditional, all-terrain or jogging. Happy strolling! -- Adi How it Works
The Strollometer features easy-to-read display screens that help you keep tabs on your stroll: 
Current Speed: Like a treadmill, you always know how fast or how slow you're strolling. Feeling good? Why not pick up the pace? | 
Maximum Speed: You powerstroll through the neighborhood. A nice flat stretch is up ahead...you pick up the pace...But make sure you jog or run only with a jogging stroller. | 
Average Speed: You stroll for 50 minutes at an average speed of 4 mph. You feel great. Tomorrow try strolling a touch faster. | 
Trip Distance: No more retracing your route with your car to see how far you've gone. You stroll for two and a half miles. Why not make it an even three? |
|
Trip Time: Time flies when you're on a stroll. Why not add an extra 15 minutes and feel even better? | 
Daily Mileage: You run errands. You spend the afternoon at the mall. You run more errands. Was it a day without exercise? Hardly. Today's tally: 2.6 miles and counting. | 
Ambient Temperature: You walk into a restaurant and suddenly it hits you: this place is cold. You glance at your Strollometer. Yup, time to pull out the blankie. | 
Clock Time: Baby yoga at 10. Lunch date at noon. Pediatrician at 3. You've got the current time--whether your Strollometer is on or off. | Easy to Install
The Strollometer is wireless and straps-on, straps-off any stroller. Just follow these simple steps and you'll be up and strolling in seconds: 
Strap console band onto stroller handlebar. | 
Slide console onto band. | 
Place adhesive-backed magnetic strip onto outermost edge of the rear wheel. | 
Strap on stroller leg and position sensor over magnet. |

 Wonderful!!! July 21, 2008

I purchased the Strollometer about 9 months ago and I couldn't be happier! I have used this on 4 different strollers, yes I said 4! I have used it on a Maclaren umbrella stroller, Joovy Caboose, BabyTrend Double Jogging stroller and now currently a Phil & Ted Sport with Doubles Kit. I still have the magnets on all the strollers and just swap out the other parts depending on what stoller I am using. The customer service has been great! They always promptly answered my questions and even sent me some more magnets when I added more stollers to my collection. This is really great now that I am doing Stroller Strides, even my instructor is impressed with the quality! It is great to know how much you are walking when running daily errands, and reprograming is really easy and just gets easier the more that you get used to it.
worth it! June 30, 2008

I love having this on my stroller. It helps motive me in my training. Once all the kinks are worked out (took me 2-3 runs) it's great.

I can't even tell you how much I love this invention!!! I was having a few problems positioning the sensor/magnet, so I emailed the company from their website [...] (9 Months Up, 9 Months Down). I can't even begin to tell you the awesome customer service I received. Adi (co-founder) emailed me back immediately with pictures of my stroller and where everything should be positioned. Besides getting back to me right away, she is really personal and seems genuinely interested to ensure her product works well. I highly recommend this product!
Great on MaClaren Strollers! June 20, 2008

I currently have a pair of Nike + shoes with the i-pod integration that gives you time/distance/etc. on your ipod. I purchased this stroller odometer because I realized how many times I am out walking with my stroller without my running shoes on. I couldn't be happier with the Strollometer!
Great things about the Strollometer include...
* The instructions are very well written and the installation process is easy. So is set up. The only tools needed are a coin (for opening the battery compartment) and a tape measure with centimeter measurement (for measuring the circumference of your wheels).
* The read-out is accurate. It almost matches my Nike + ipod readout exactly.
* The attachment easily adjust so that you can clearly read it while walking, yet it is not in the way of your hand grips or handles.
* The monitor is easy to use with only 3 buttons.
* The monitor easily detaches so it can be removed from the stroller.
* It traveling, like on a plane, where you need to remove the entire set up, both the handlebar piece and bottom sensor arm can be easily removed and reattached at your destination.
* The device does not interfere with the folding and unfolding of your stroller.
The only downfall of this item seems to be that magnet on the wheel could fall off after some use or while being handled by the airline, but they give you two additional replacement magnets. Be sure to clean your wheel with the alcohol pad provided and let it dry completely before applying the magnet to the wheel and wait 24 hours before use. The other catch is to apply it to the non-rubber part of the wheel (apply it to the hub-cap part of the wheel instead). The magnet also works best applied vertically instead of horizontally.
I have a MaClaren Triumph stroller. This is just a walking/travel style stroller, not a running stroller. I was easily able to install the magnet and sensor arm so that it is on the inside of the innermost wheel in the back.
Great product, excellent customer service!! June 13, 2008

Overall, I've been very satisfied with this product. There is some set-up involved but the included directions are very detailed and easy to follow.
I gave it 4 stars, instead of 5 due to some minor issues I've had. The first is that on my Bob stroller, the sensor kept jiggling out of place. However, after contacting the company, the owner not only called me to discuss the issue & help me troubleshoot--she also emailed me detailed photos of a suggested set up [which isn't included in the general instruction leaflet].
The second minor problem I encountered is that the strollometer monitor strap broke after about 3 months of use. Again, I contacted the company to order a replacement strap and I was sent one [free of charge!] immediately. Another testament to the company's high level of customer service.
The strollometer has been an invaluable device to help me track my distance traveled, speed, ambient temperature, etc. After using it, I can't work out without it! I know that the strollometer accurately records the correct distance, as I checked it against a track at a local university.
My experience with the company's owner has been fabulous and she is committed to ensuring that her customers are happy. The level of customer care that I've experienced with her, has been tops and I would whole heartedly recommend this product.
