Strollers where baby can face either way?

AnnecyDream · August 2010

I'm registering next week, and I'm trying to research strollers. Can anyone share recommendations for strollers where the baby can face in or out? Thanks!

Graco Flip is what I'll probably register for.

We got the Bugaboo Frog. You can switch the handle to quickly change which way the baby faces and you can do this without taking the baby out of the seat. You can also change which way the seat faces which you'd want to do if you care which wheels are forward (the big ones or the small ones). I don't remember which directions for the wheels are better for which kind of terrain.

We are also planning on registering for the Bugaboo Frog. LOVE IT!!!

I might get this one. It has pretty good reviews and is a great deal.

I'm not sure if you are set on getting a new one, but just in case you are (or anyone else out there is) interested, we got our Frog on craigslist for $400 and it is in almost perfect condition with all of the original manuals and information. The seller also threw in the footmuff, parasol, and graco car seat adapter. There are definitely good deals on craigslist if you are okay with getting something used.

We registered for the Teutonia T-Linx stroller. It's new on the market this year, but I guess Teutonia has been around for awhile. You can switch both the handle and the seat to face in and out.

Can I ask where you registered for this? The brand doesn't seem to be carried a lot of places.

I registered for the UppaBaby Vista. It can face both ways, but you need to manually turn the seat around. I think with one of the Bugaboos (maybe the Cameleon?) you just have to move the handle.

this.

We checked out the Graco Flip It yesterday. The flipping handle is so awesome, especially as baby grows into a toddler! You can keep an eye on him while you're walking, and he can look at you!

We ended up not registering for this one, just because it was more difficult to fold up than the Safety 1st we went with. I think the novelty of the flipping handle was worth sacrificing for a stoller that more easily folds/unfolds. DH said he was having issues folding it... the wheels have to be a certain way, and it doesn't snap into place like most other strollers- you have to give it a little kick!

I already purchased the Graco Flipit!!

I *think* the baby jogger city select can go either way.

welshgirl · August 2010

I think the Bumbleride Flyer can?

It does, I just discovered. This stroller just took the #1 spot for me. I love the 2nd baby attachment, since we plan on growing our family.

We bought the Kolcraft Contours 3 wheel. It can face both ways. It is a little heavy and wide, but it won't be our shopping stroller. I like it because it had all the bells and whistles and was only $160

AndysGrl08 · August 2010

Bumbleride Flyer - I just put mine together and LOVE it!

(Mine is not the same color, but it is the same stroller otherwise)

Temp103605875001677 · August 2010

UppaBaby Vista is what we will be purchasing.

Peg Perego Pliko Switch!

devilingucci · August 2010

I had the Peg Perego Skate for DS #1 which was a PITA. I just bought the Baby Jogger City Select because of all the great options. The handle does flip from front to back, you can change it easily from single to double if you want to have another LO in the near future and the car seat adapter makes it a breeze. Plus the folding of it is so easy and I like that the brake is up by the handle instead of down by the wheel.

We are purchasing the Bugaboo Cameleon. It's handle switches directions while seat and baby are still attached, the only thing with this is it has swivel suspension wheels that allow for 360 degree turning and the otherside is set larger terrain wheels so that's why you would switch the handle. otherwise you can pop the seat off, I believe with baby in it, and turn the seat around easily.

It is a fabulous stroller. I haven't read anything bad about it expect that it is pricey. I have been saving my extra spending cash for over a year due to the fact my hubby wouldn't pay $1000 for it.

It is a great stroller but there is one bad thing about it... It is extremely heavy!! Definitely test one out in the store... fold it up and try lifting it into your trunk. That is the main reason why we didn't get one with DS #1. The Peg Skate was a little lighter and that was still way too heavy IMO.
