Strollers with a viewing window

Viewing window

— a window made of transparent or translucent material, built into the hood that covers the carrycot or seat unit. In the version with a seat unit, the viewing window is usually located so that the parent can see the baby directly while moving, without being distracted from controlling the pushchair. In carrycots, the parent can see the child through a window by approaching the pushchair from the side of the hood (that is, on the opposite side of the handle); models with a window in the front hemisphere of the hood are less common. In addition, a baby lying in a carrycot can usually see the outside world through the window (primarily the sky above the pushchair). The viewing window can be made in the form of oilcloth or a mesh mosquito net, through the holes of which air freely penetrates, but insects and small debris raised by the wind are retained.
