recommend your umbrella stroller

I'm looking into getting a nice lightweight umbrella like stroller. Not the basic $10 umbrella stroller, something a tad nicer with storage, decent sun canopy (for decent coverage from sun), folds relatively small and has a tray. Anyone have recs? I would like to keep it around $50-75. TIA

    Its a little more than you want to spend but Uppababy G-lite do go on sale a few times a year. I got mine for $85 a year ago. I really love it.

    We have a Cosco brand which came with a small tray, storage basket underneath and a canopy.  I think I paid $45 at Target, a little over a year ago.  My only complaint is that DS has already outgrown it - But he's very tall (37") and has a long torso.  I think it would have lasted longer for most kids.

    Do you have a Once Upon a Child? They always have 15-20 strollers parked outside at the ones closest to me, for usually less than 1/2 the new price of one. I bet you could get a Chicco or nice umbrella stroller for $35-50 easy.

    Of course, this is from a girl who doesn't buy anything new, hardly ever (except her carseat and crib). Every thing she has came used... and I love it. You could spend the extra money on you!

    We have the Maclaren Volo

    Maclaren Volo Stroller - Coffee Silver - Maclaren - Babies"R"UsIt handles really well and we love it. I know other parents with older kids who have the same stroller and they love it and feel like it has held up well. With that said, if the tray is a must then this one is out.

    We didn't get our stroller there, but I have found some great buys at Once Upon a Child.
