Fuel Surcharge
Starting on April 10th, 2013, a fuel surcharge of 1% will be applied to select orders. While most orders will qualify for free shipping and no surcharge, a very small percentage will see this nominal fee depending on the products selected and the location to which they are being shipped.
Why are we applying this surcharge?
The cost of fuel has been steadily rising due to increases in crude oil prices. The global transportation market has reacted by increasing their prices and industry forecasts that this trend will continue.
Till recently, Cymax absorbed these increased costs into our operating budgets. However, the continual rise indicates that we must now move forward by adopting the industry’s standard practice. We have therefore made the difficult but necessary decision to follow the lead of transportation companies and implement a fuel surcharge.
Our Commitment to Our Customers
Cymax continues to commit to providing the utmost value for our customers. We endeavor to do everything that we can for operational efficiency and to control costs. We hope that the application of this relatively small fee is viewed in this light. If you have any questions regarding this, please contact Customer Service at 1-866-740-9830. We thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
Note: Fuel surcharge is a non-refundable amount on shipment of your order

Strollers Buying Guide

Types of Strollers

Strollers. The options can be perplexing. Our handy overview will help you figure out what’s out there and what would work best for you.

UMBRELLA STROLLERS

Umbrella strollers are extremely popular with on-the-go parents because they fold easily and fit into tight storage spaces like car trunks and overhead compartments. Featuring curved handles (hence the name), umbrella strollers offer less comfort and features than larger strollers but are ideal for caregivers who travel often by bus, train or car since they occupy less space and can be easily folded and tucked away.

LIGHTWEIGHT STROLLERS

While there is something to be said for a sturdy, heavy stroller that will last for the duration of a child’s need, the practicality of a lightweight stroller cannot be undermined. And lightweight strollers no longer describe the basic umbrella stroller either. Indeed, today there are many lightweight strollers that offer some of the same features as larger strollers, including storage space, multiple reclining positions, adjustable handlebars and stylish accessories.

PRAM

If you’ve seen a period movie set in England and that involved babies, chances are you’ve seen what a pram looks like. Traditionally, these old-fashioned baby carriages feature large spoked wheels and a bassinet-style sleeping space. Prams are ideal for newborns, since they need to lie down when they ride around. Beautiful and offering a certain classic vintage image, prams are safe for babies up to three months old.

Today, many modern strollers offer a bassinet attachment that provides your baby with a similar pram experience.

TRAVEL SYSTEM

Popular with new parents, these traditional strollers include a detachable color-coordinating infant car seat carrier. Instead of waking baby to take him out of a car seat and put him in the stroller when you leave the car to run a quick errand, the travel system lets you easily pick up the carrier and attach it directly onto the stroller. While practical in the first few months, many parents complain that travel systems are heavy and impractical for folding and storing in the trunk of a car.

CONVERTIBLE STROLLER

Similar to a travel system, a convertible stroller grows with your child from the newborn to toddler stage. Convertible strollers feature a seat that folds back so the newborn can ride flat. The seat back can be folded up at around six months when the baby can sit upright. Though these strollers can be on the pricier side, keep in mind that you will be able to use it well into the toddler years.
