2nd Trimester

Random product rant...

I'm not sure why, but every car seat and every stroller that we tried that were so highly recommended by family and friends at BBB and BRU today sucked.  We fell in love with the Uppa Baby and Citi Mini, but hated the Maclaren, Bob, Phil and Ted, Graco snugride, Britax Chaperone, ect.  All of them seemed so bulky, heavy, and just difficult to use or operate.  We finally decided on the Max-Cosi Phantom Car Seat and either the Citi Mini or Uppa Baby.  We are returning our Bugaboo Frog because compared to the Uppa Baby, it sucks. 

Anyways, point of my story, don't register solely on-line.  Go to the store and check out the products.  You may be surprised at what you love/hate compared to on-line reviews and look feel.

  • totally agree....and ask other moms at BRU.  I was gonna go w/a stroller system until I spoke w/some moms at BRU and learned they weigh a ton and are just too bulky.

  • Yeah- buying a stroller without test driving is not a good idea.

    I hate every stroller BRU carries. ?If you still aren't 100% sure of your choice, check out the Bumblerides. ?We got the Indie but really liked the Flyer, too.?

  • ugh. We really liked the Acella Cobalt travel system- but it's been discontinued here in Canada. -_- So that means we'd have to pay a TON extra to get it.

    *sigh* Registering sucks.
