Hummibird MC W Mount Cover




Mount cover which provides protections for the unit’s connector panel, keeping rain and dirt out of the electrical connections while the unit is not in use (removed from the base). It is made of durable textured vinyl.

4 Stars Good idea
Removing the fish finder for transport is a good idea, but what about the connections? This keeps them from filling up with bugs and dirt while you tow. Highly recommended.

3 Stars Humminbird Cover
Fits snug, but I would not keep it on when going down the road unless you add a rubber band to hold in place. I knew this before ordering. Does what it is suppose to do and that is to keep the elec. conections clean. Great product that should of came with the bird…

4 Stars it works
This little rubberized cover works perfect when the boat is in storage and the fish finder is not in use - it keeps out dust and debris. It does not have a tight enough fit that I would trust it to stay on while towing though.

5 Stars Seems like a throwaway…
This little cover seems like a throwaway and could easily be replaced by a piece of cardboard and some duct tape, but for the price and what it does, it works perfectly. You probably don’t need it if your boat parks under a canopy, but mine is in the open, so having this keeps the rain from the connections.

Being someone who believes electricity sits in a wire after the power is shut off, I figure anything to keep the power connections from rusting can’t be a bad idea.

Schwinn Free Wheeler 2 Double Swivel Wheel Jogging Stroller

Schwinn Free Wheeler 2 Double Swivel Wheel Jogging Stroller



User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Great stoller!
Great stoller for walks on paved trails and roads around town. It easily fits our 7 month old and two year old. Great tool for getting them to sleep! It’s width makes it difficult for use in tight quarters (i.e., most stores) but we use it a lot for other outings. I’ve used it a little on undeveloped trails and it worked OK, but I wouldn’t venture out more than a mile or two. Best use on paved trails or gravel. Works good for either walking or running. Enough storage for water, snacks, jackets, etc. I would certainly recommend for anyone looking for a two-seat stroller.

4 Stars Schwinn Free Wheeler Review
Schwinn Free Wheeler 2 Double Swivel Wheel Jogging Stroller

My wife loves this stroller. She can put our 3 year old and 10 month old in it and go on walks. It is very smooth and easy to push.

However, I am not as thrilled with this stroller. It is bulky, doesn’t break down that well, and doesn’t fit into places very well. I imagine that these problems occur for strollers like this one. In addition, one of the spokes on the rear wheel broke off and I need to get that repaired.

4 Stars So far, so good
I spent hours researching strollers before purchasing this one. And, although I think the more expensive versions might offer a stronger quality, this one suffices for the price. I actually like this stroller a lot! I just brought it to the mall for the first time and had no difficulties with it fitting in stores. It is super smooth when running and also folds up easily enough. The couple of things that I don’t care for are the construction of the basket below - it seems just a little flimsy; however, it does hold my diaper bag and small drink cooler, in which I didn’t think it would. Also, although I love the size of the sun canopy (this one of the main reasons I bought this stroller), this too seems a little flimsy. But, again, for the price comparison to others, I really am happy with my purchase and would recommend this to others.

Good luck!

5 Stars Great stroller w/ a great price
After doing much research on jogging strollers, I decided on the Schwinn because of price and features. I received the stroller in two days once it was shipped. I thought I would have to assemble the whole stroller but I only had to attach the wheels and foot stool. We took the stroller out for the first walk and immediately loved it. The canopy is great and stuffed inside the zipper is a weathershield. Also, my stroller came with a parent organizer that hooks to the handlebar. The seats are great. I did not purchase this stroller for hardcore jogging. I wanted it more for the ease of the swivel front wheel and fast-paced walking and just around town with the kids. I laid my 5 week old in the recline position and my 2 year old sat up and was lounging. My husband and I were teasing each other over who got to push. We had a Joovy Caboose Ultralight Tandem before and the ease of a swivel/locked front wheel makes such a huge difference. I can push with only one hand and hold my 5 year olds hand.

Like I said before, I read a ton of reviews on many jogging strollers and my decision was between the Instep Safari swivel & the Schwinn Free Wheeler 2. I purchased the Schwinn because I like the colors and my family has Schwinn bicycles which are great quality and figured this would be too. We feel we made a great choice. The storage on the stroller is great as I have a large Lands End tote as my diaper bag and it fits on the bottom. We are very happy with the stroller and feel that the $250 w/ free shipping was worth the money. Amazon.com had the best value.

4 Stars Love my Schwinn
Why?

1) It is compact enough to fit in the trunk of my Honda Accord

2) It fits through doors and aisles at the mall

3) It is easy to maneuver with the front wheel swivel

4) There is a big storage space underneath

5) The seats are more upright than an earlier version

6) It is easy to assemble

The price is great!!
