Time for a new stroller!!

I really want a nice umbrella folding stroller.  I am looking at the Maclarens.  What are nice features you like on your umbrella stroller?  BOB is just too behemoth to go to the mall or for casual walking.

We have the Maclaren Volo and love it. It has an arm strap that makes it easy to carry, it's super light, and Nate likes it and sleeps fine even though it doesn't recline.

I have the MacLaren Quest and it's great for what it is...lightweight, reclines, easy to throw in the car.  I kinda want one that has just a little more to it though, like a parent tray and a snack tray for the kid, but I know that takes the "umbrella" out of it....

I have the cheap cheap BRU umbrella and it drives me nuts when I put somethingon the handle like  a purse or bag and as soon as SC is out of it it falls backwards.  Look for one with better balance and decent storage beneath...which is not on the BRU but hey, its SO cheap and has worked for us and still functioning.

We have the Maclaren Quest as well.  No complaints, it's a great stroller!

Check out the Graco Ipo.  It's a lot like the Maclaren but it reclines fully and is half the price.  We love ours!

If we end up getting one I am either getting the lighter inglesina or the Graco Ipo that Staci rec'd I am leaning towards the ipo b/c it's so reasonably priced. I am going to hang with the Zippy for now though b/c I love it and really don't NEED another stroller.

My must haves for a stoller are:

• cup holder (pref. 2 on the top)
• some storage space under the stoller (doesn't have to be a lot)
• reclines at least a little bit

I ordered the Quest in Citrus Lime.  I also put in my order for the Britax Marathon in Ashley Floral and the Compass True Fit at Albee Baby.  Everything was $180 each.  I am going to try both the True Fit and the Marathon and give the one that Polly likes least to my MIL.  We have a family member about to give birth and MIL is on the pick up list for the new baby's daycare and MIL is going to have 2 seats in her car, one of Polly's old infant seats and the new convertible.

Another vote for the Maclaren Quest!   You will love it!  It is so light and easy to fold up.
