Re: umbrella stroller

  • We still don't have one so I am waiting for answers.  We still do the sling and never do a stroller.  My back is getting ready for a stroller though!

     Wow, you still use the sling? How old is DD?  I havent used the Moby or Bjorn in ages with DD... honestly, never thought about using it lately.  I wonder if she would like it at this point.  I'll try tomorrow, just for the fun of it...

  • We have 3 different strollers and my fave is my cheap $15 one from Walmart.  It is light easy to set up and takes me from point A to point B!

  • I have and love my Maclaren Quest. We recently bought a cheapy $15??? from Walmart to take our boy to a college game. You can't take strollers in which is why I bought the cheapy. Sadly no one stole it. I was so hoping. Now it's sitting in my garage. I'm going to donate it one of these days.

    Maclaren all the way.
  • I agree about Maclaren.  They're the best.  I bought a cheaper one and was miserable.  I just bought the Quest and I can't believe I waited so long to get it!  I was debating between the Triumph and the Quest.  The Quest is about $75 more but it has a little more to the legroom area.  It's 1 pound heavier too (11 pounds vs. 12 pounds).  Both have a shoulder strap to sling over your shoulder so you have 2 hands free.  Both close easily- DH even figured it out- and that's saying a lot!p

    I bought it on ebay.  I never thought I would but it was so much cheaper that way.  Brand new- in box - it's just 2008 version instead of the 2009 version.  It was a store on ebay but you can just do a search.  It was something like Maxoty.

  • Ditto the Maclarans!!  We have 2 (the Quest, and the Volo), I absolutely love them.  I use the Quest most often, the Volo stays in DH's car.  They are so lightweight and the handles are also taller than most umbrella strollers.  They are also super easy to push, even one handed.
  • We have the Chicco Capri and really like it!

  • We also have the Maclaren Quest and LOVE it.  Use it all the time.

    We got a Chicco Capri for our Nanny and it is okay, but you kick the rear wheels b/c of their placement and it's just not as comfy.

  • We have the Graco IPO and love it.

     

    I couldn't justify the cost of the McClaren since we don't use the stroller very often.

     

    The IPO's handles are nice and high for DH and I, so we don't have to bed over when we are pushing it, it has a basket and the seat reclines.

  • I absolutely love the cheapie one we bought from BRU/TRU. It was on sale for $15 and has been sturdy and travels easily. Plus I wont feel bad if it gets beaten up on the airplane, or in my trunk.
