Strollers?

rockie7 · January 2012

Hi I'm Rockie and new here. I don't know if this question has been asked, but any ideas on what stroller your getting and why? I've narrowed it down to a couple the bugaboo ( of course) the stokke and quinny

I'm leaning towards Bugaboo- but I'm going to look on Ebay and Craiglist first for a deal. I looked today and there are some good deals where I live! All they may need is a little cleaning, which is totally worth saving the cash! If I can swing it though, I'll buy new!

We thought we wanted a Stokke, but in the store it was so big and heavy and hard and plastic. Plus no storage space. Now we're starting from scratch, and I don't know what we're going to get.

We're getting the City Select with second seat. I'll have 2 in the stroller for at least a year and then when the time comes can use it as a single. DH and I took it for a test-drive last weekend and both agree it's what fits our needs best.

We're getting the new City Mini, but are considering the new GT model. We'll know for sure once they're out in stores. Baby Jogger gets great reviews and they're super affordable in comparison to some of the others I've seen.

I am going with the Britax B-Agile with a B-ready infant seat. I love it. It is very similar to the City Mini but has a few better advantages. (No need for an additional adapter if using Britax infant seat, don't kick the bar below, easier basket.

I'm pretty sure I am getting the Britax b-Ready with the 2nd seat. I can use it as a double with DS for awhile, and then as a single as long as baby needs it!!

i am torn between the uppababy vista and bumbleride indie .. will get either of the two ..

Were doing the bumbleride Streamline. It is a jogging stroller hybride and folds up REALLY small and is so easy to handle. I LOVE it!

I have a city select and double bob. I use the double bob for running and most outdoor activities. DS1 is a big/tall kid and its the one stroller that he fits comfortable in. The city select I use for doctor's appts. I love that it's a single and double stroller

For any FTMs, if you are thinking you'll have a 2nd I highly recommend looking at the strollers that go from single to double. It will just save you time and money when you do have the 2nd child

We're getting the Britax B-Agile stroller with the Britax B-Safe Infant seat.

We test drove the city mini and city elite in the store. Liked the elite better due to adjustable handlebar and better tires. The sales clerk told us to look up the new city mini gt that comes out in march. Sure enough, they morphed everything we liked about the elite into the mini gt. I think they are phasing out the elite. So our plan is to get the gt.

I'm leaning towards the B-Agile and B-Safe seat combo from Britax. DH hasn't tired any stroller in stores so I want him to be able to tool around with some before we make our final decision.

If we somehow acquire a bunch of money, or someone offers to buy us a stroller and give us an unlimited budget, I may spring for one that has a 2nd seat adapter like the B-Ready. We don't know if we want more children or not but it would be nice to have the option in case we have 2 in strollers.

I have a peg perego pliko p3 for DS and I love it. It is really light weight and folds up really small so it's easy to throw in the trunk. I got it at a garage sale for super cheap!

LEIGHLOVE09 · January 2012

We ordered the Uppababy Vista. I love everything about it! Its being delivered on Friday! Cant wait Smile

STW14 · January 2012

My in-laws bought us the all black bugaboo cameleon. Altough we haven't taken it outside for a spin, we have been playing with it in the house and all I can say is AMAZING! It's light, turns on a dime, all the feature are user friendly. With each function (attaching car seat, changing handle height, etc.) you should hear a click which is great because then I know that it's attached properly and and I did it right.

I had the B.O.B for #1. I wanted something that worked as a jogger and for everyday.

For number two, I'll probably get the B.O.B dualie and a double umbrella or other small/portable.

alison518 · January 2012

My top two choices are the bugaboo & uppababy. But I'm really loving the bugaboo...i think its perfect for city living.

gtdubois · January 2012

We got the Uppababy b/c of the price (you can find it on sale online for $450) and it's just as light and multifunctional as the Bugaboo (IMO) but costs a lot less. We can get a second seat for baby #2 and we can use the bassinet with the stoller OR at home when the baby is still pretty small. I definitely think it's a smart investment!

LindzK · January 2012

I really like these styles of strollers (leaning towards Britax B Agile and City Mini Gt), but is it stupid that I can't stand the cup holder option? Am I alone on this?

I always have at the very least a water bottle with me, sometimes starbucks or a pop (aka soda) too. I will want to have a good sturdy acessible place for my beverage. And if DH is with me, his drink too. Storage is also a big deal. I feel so picky, but I really like these stoller options, but hate the cup holders.

Anyone that has one now, care to comment on the cup holders?

Olive44 · January 2012

We are leaning toward the Uppababy Vista. Sometimes I wonder if we should get the BOB though since it can be used for more outdoor activities. That seems to be what everyone has around here.

Capt Jen · January 2012

Britax B-Agile stroller with the B-Safe carset.

rockie7 · January 2012

Wow Ladies thanks so much for all the info. I thought I had narrowed it down now I have to check some of the other models you guys mentioned. @Liz_Moss thanks for the point I just checked out Ebay and it seems you can get even NEW bugaboo's for less on there! @theboki just had to mention that our due dates are 1 day apart!

Thanks again everyone I didn't think I'd get so much response!
