Stroller question

Good morning everyone! I was wondering what strollers you are considering or have already used and like? 

Re: Stroller question

  • We bought a Quinny buzz with matching Maxi Cosi carseat.  It is pretty bada$$ IMO.  If you buy it from albeebaby.com right now it's on sale for like $279 and it is usually around $600.

  • I am looking at the Quinny now. Did you also buy the dreami cot? 
  • We had the Chicco Key Fit 30 Carseat and stroller combo with the first I would not do it again.  Around 6 months with DD I got a BOB Jogger and love it.  Now the only issue I have with 2nd is that the Chicco Keyfit 30 Carseat only goes with 3 double strollers - not very versital (though it is a very safe carseat)!

    No we didn't buy it.  I don't think it would be worth it in the long run.  You can lay the quinny seat back or hook in the Maxi Cosi carseat.

    Thanks. I was wondering if you could do that! 

  • We ended up with 3... the Snugrider that goes with our infant seat (the Graco Snugride), the Jeep Liberty Urban Terrain jogger, and the Chicco Capri umbrella stroller.  All 3 serve different purposes, so we will use all at different times and for different occasions.
  • I've heard great things about this stroller and it's currently my dream stroller:?https://smartmomma.com/Bumbleride-2009-Indie-Stroller-Seagrass-p-17908.html

    For some reason my mac won't make it clicky even when I try but you can c/p the link into your browser. Bumbleride Indie stroller.?

  • We have a Graco Vienna that came with a Graco Snugride.  We LOVE it.  We've used it (and still use the stroller) for two kids and plan on using it this time.  It's a full sized stroller, but it folds easily and it's too heavy.  We also have a Graco duo glider (that I hate because it's heavy), a baby trend double jogger, and a cheap $12 umbrella stroller from Walmart that we hate because it's short.

  • As a former nanny (full-time, many years) my opinion is that the Graco and other ones like it are pure garbage.  The wheels always have issues and the material doesn't last and they aren't very cute either Big Smile

    We're going with the UPPABaby Vista for our LO

  • We have the Quinny Buzz for DD.  We love it.  We got the Dreami bassinet, which she outgrew really fast.  But I don't regret getting the bassinet, but it's good to have her lie flat when we are out for an extended period of time.  We will use the Buzz for baby #2.
  • I used the Peg Perego Uno stroller and infant carrier and loved it.  My mother had the Graco system, I liked the stroller but the infant carrier wasn't as good IMO.  The Peg actually clipped into grocery carts, was easier to use without the base, etc.  But the price was pretty steep.

     Now I'm using just the jeep umbrella stroller, it's a decent size and lightweight.  My son is 1 1/2 so I don't have much use for the travel systems that were much bulkier.

    Everyone has their own favorites, and more expensive doesn't necessarily mean better.  Check out reviews online, and go to a place where you can actually see the stroller assembled and can test it out.

  • I have the Bugaboo with a Peg Perego carseat.
    The Bugaboo is great if you never have to take it in a car.
    ?I used it as my full time stroller when DS was younger but I wanted something easier & lighter weight ?so I got a Mclaren Ryder. The McLaren is my main stroller & ?Now I only use the Bugaboo as my walking stroller or to take to the playground.

    I am hoping to sell the Bugaboo on craigslist & purchase a used Mountain buggy double & a used Mountain buggy single.?

    My friend has the mountain buggy strollers & they maneuver like a dream.?

  • My mom found a killer deal from a closing store on the Orbit baby system. So we have that with the Infant seat, base, rocker base, toddler stroller seat, and toddler car seat. It is super cool.

    This is what I want but unless I find it for a GREAT price I cannot see spending that much money.  It's a great system though.

  • IMO the orbit sytem is not THAT great...I have the toddler car seat/base and toddler stroller system. Compared to a Britax, the car seat itself it does not hold a candle to the quality, IMO Britax has a much better design, as the Orbit has about 3/4inch play when it sits on the hub on the base.

     But the swivel feature is really nice for trips to the zoo. But good luck with it! The CS is great!

    If you got a great deal! Go for it!
