We have it and love it. It's extremely easy to use, glides well over rough surfaces, and is pretty lightweight (for a big stroller). We used the bassinet for the first couple of month's when she slept in our room. We have the Gracco carseat attachment and either use that or the regular stroller seat now. Changing out the seat is extremely easy. We have found that it is worth the money for us.
On the con side, it is bulky so if you have a small house or small car that can be annoying. Sometimes in stores, it is too wide to fit through certain racks or other tight spaces. Other than that, it's great.
I have a couple friends who own it and they also love it. My one friend has had to call customer service twice with various questions (one time they had an issue with the wheels and the other time was with questions about installing the piggyback) and has raved about how awesome their customer service is both times.
We have plain ol' black. I wanted a fun color, like orange or something, but my DH nixed it and I didn't care enough to fight that battle. My one friend has the orange and it holds up well.
We have it and LOVE it. It's easy on rough roads/trails and goes everywhere with us. Our LO loves it. We didn't use the basinet much (your baby is too big for that now) so that was pretty much a waste of money. But that graco attachment was wonderful.
We have it in red and get compliments on it all of the time. We also had an issue with it (minor) and the customer service was unbelievable.
After 2 m/cs, dx October 2008 with hetero factor v leiden & mthfr & low progesterone; third time was the charm - BFP 3/19/09 on first cycle of clomid.
We have it in red and love love love it. One of the main selling points for us was that we can convert it to a double stoller with the extra seat and even a triple with the wheelie board and the back down simply and as needed. My sister has three kids- 5, 3, and 1- and we hope to also have our about 2 year apart and she has A MILLION different strollers depending on who she thinks would want to walk or not that day. That seems like so much to me. It would be so nice to just have to deal with one stroller.
I have the Uppa in orange and I love it. It's very eay to use and offers a very smooth ride for baby. I also love that it has a large storage basket below. My baby boy is three months and we just switched him out of the bassinet but still use it for naps while out or visiting with family. I dont regret this purchase one bit.

Thanks! What color? Do you find it easy to use for errands?

I'm sure most of us have the 09 but either would be great. I say get the 09 if you get a deal.
Also, I meant to add that my favorite feature is the storage basket. I can grocery shop and use the stroller as my cart - it's wonderful.
Thanks!! Your son is absolutely beautiful!
