Its easy fold design makes transportation and storage simple, making it a practical choice for everyday use.
Why The Ark?
Why The Ark?
Your family grows, and the Ark grows with it, because the Joey seat turns your single into a full double, no second stroller required.
- Fold it and load it in one piece, whether you're running single or double. It's a one-hand fold with the seat still attached, so there's nothing to remove and nothing left on the sidewalk.
- Walk through your front door head-on. At just 26 inches wide, the Ark clears standard doorways without turning sideways.
- The nap survives the ride home, because Infinity wheels + suspension cushion sidewalks, gravel, and grass — and won't go flat if you roll over a curb or broken glass.

Designed To Fit Your Life
Starts Single, Grows To Double
One stroller becomes two seats with the Joey seat, folding the same one-handed way either time.
Room To Recline, Shade To Nap
Full-flat recline and a four-stage canopy keep them cool, covered, and ready to sleep.
Pushes Light, Adjusts To You
A telescopic handle meets you at your height, so pushing never feels like work.
Folds Flat, Fits Anywhere
One hand, seat still attached, and it's small enough for the trunk in seconds.
The Single Built To Do More
Most compact singles keep their size down by leaving things out — a smaller canopy, no suspension, a basket that's an afterthought. You get something easy to lift, but you outgrow it fast.
The Ark takes the opposite approach. It's a full-size single with full-flat recline, premium Infinity wheels with suspension, a four-stage canopy, and a storage basket that runs the length of the frame — the kind of ride and capacity you'd expect from a much bigger stroller. And because it's built on a double-ready frame, the Joey seat lets it become a full double later, so the size you're carrying now is already doing double duty. Here is what that changes.
5 Reasons Parents Choose The Ark
1. One stroller, whichever stage you're in
Newborn or toddler, single kid or two, the Ark adjusts to fit, because the seat reverses on its own and the Joey seat clips on the moment you need a second one. You're never stuck deciding what stroller to buy next.
2. Fold it at the curb and go, nothing comes off
No kneeling in a parking lot juggling loose seats, a frame, and a toddler. With one hand it folds down and lifts into the trunk in one piece, whether you're running single or double, because the seat stays attached through the fold either way.
3. Walk through the door head-on
Your front door, the grocery aisle, the elevator, the tight cafe entry: all of them stop being obstacles, because the frame is just 26 inches wide.
4. The nap survives the ride home
Sidewalk cracks, gravel, and grass never reach your sleeping kid, because Infinity wheels and built-in suspension absorb them first — and puncture-proof tires mean a piece of glass or gravel never ends the trip early.
5. One trip out the door carries the whole day
Shade at any sun angle, a snug newborn-ready bootinet, mosquito netting for outdoor naps, and a basket that runs the full length of the frame: a 4-stage canopy, padded belly bar, adjustable footrest, and large easy-access storage, all built in.

Made To Be The Only Stroller You Buy
Many families end up buying a second stroller the moment their first child isn't an only child anymore. The Ark is built to be the one that doesn't need replacing—a full-featured single from day one, ready to become a full double the moment the Joey seat clips on, with a fold that keeps up either way.
