The strollers were sold at buybuy Baby and other juvenile product stores nationwide and online at buybuybaby.com , albeebaby.com , diapers.com and other online retailers from July through October 2012. The strollers have charcoal-colored metal frames with black, silver, red or green fabric stroller seats and canopies.
