Quinny Buzz vs. City Elite stroller?

AvaLikeLava

We decided to hold out on a stroller until G was born and we got the opportunity to see (based on our lifestyle) what features would be important to us. Thus far we've used a Snap'NGo frame, and from this I've realized that these features are really key to me:

- good turning radius

- light enough for me to pick up into a car on my own

- good sized wheels to go over curbs easily (pref rubber)

- easy break mechanism 

Also nice features:

- good padding for baby 

- easily accessible storage

Based on these, I've narrowed my stroller search down to the Quinny Buzz

 

and the City Elite by Baby Jogger

 

 

Do you have any opinion on either? They both cost the same, so that's not a deciding factor.

I love the Quinny, but DH prefers the City Elite... so we need some more info. Please help!

I don't know the second one, but I love love LOVE my quinny!  It steers so well, the brakes work so easily, very comfy for baby, and it comes apart and goes back together quickly and easily for transport.

Love it!

Ditto. We love our quinny. It's so so light and is just a dream to drive.

Do you guys have any trouble with the locking mechanism? It was terrible in the store, which is why DH really doesn't like it.

you mean when you collapse it?  It's a bit tricky at first but once you get used to it, it's no problem.  The actual thingy that locks it works fine, you just have to remember to put the handle down!
