Anyone have a Stokke Stroller?

If you do do you love it? What are the pros and cons. It has a hefty price tag but I really like the smooth ride, the streamlined and light feel, that baby can face me, and also that baby can be up high.

Looking to hear the pros and cons.  Thanks!

I am interested as well.  I liked Quinny too, but then DH saw it and claimed it looked "cheap"- whatever!  It is so nice.  Anyway, so now he is bent on the Stokke.  I like the Orbit as well.  Either way, cha-ching, and would love to hear what others have experienced.

I don't have one, but I'm considering the Stokke Xplory and the UppaBaby Vista. Both sit higher than your average stroller. The Xplory is about $400 more than the Vista. Both can seat the baby facing you or facing forward. The thing that bugs me about the Xplory, aside from the price, is the lack of storage on the bottom. The Vista has a nice basket under the seat and also accommodates a second child in an add-on rumble seat. The seat on the Xplory is higher and can recline to 180. I believe the bassinet is extra, while it's included with the Vista.

I looked at the Stokke for a second, then I pushed it. It is not smooth at all and didn't feel very sturdy. It also doesn't get very good reviews anywhere. I also looked at the Vista, but ended up with the Bugaboo Chameleon. After pushing the Chameleon it was no contest. It is so smooth and easy to push, plus it has excellent shocks which was very important to me because of the cobblestone streets here. If you are looking in that price range/for that kind of stroller, after a ton of research, I highly recommend the Bug.
