another stroller question

lol, just kinda wanting to get an idea what kinda umbrella strollers are out there that recline backwards and offer some storage underneath? right now we have two strollers we alternate between. the graco metro light (for storage it offers, when we're going to be out and about) and a jeep stroller that we'll use if we'll be taking the bus. TIA

We have the Maclaren Triumph. I don't think it reclines, but we really avoid naps on the go, so no biggie. It does have a pretty good storage basket

We have the Uppababy G Luxe which reclines and has an ok storage. It's nothing like the Vista storage. But one of the things that we really like about it is that it folds standing up. Additionally, it is only 11 lbs.

I have The First Years Ignite stroller which was recommended by someone else on this board. It does recline back (a little bit) and has some storage (the more it is reclined, though, the harder it is to get to. It does come with a nice console that has a cup holder and zipper pouch that I like a lot.

I chose this one because the first thing we were using it for was an airplane trip. This stroller was <$50 and I wasn't worried about the airline dinging it up. (They didn't, btw)

It maneuvers great and for the price, I think it was perfect. I like that it has a canopy - more basic umbrella strollers don't; it's a pretty useless canopy on its own, but it does allow me to tie on a canopy I bought separately for better protection.

I'll have to talk to dh, but I found this one online for 45 bucks... I also liked that it says the handles are raised, so we don't have to feel we're hunched over.

fwiw, i'm 5'5" and dh is 5'10" and we both find it comfortable to use.
