a good small sized full of features buggy

I must say first, that I owned my share of lightweight strollers (Maclaren Techno Classis, Zooper zStreet 2004, Zooper Swing 2005 - which is the reason I bought another lightweigh Zooper, and a Peg Perego Venezia - I know this is not considered lightweight, but it is small considering that my everyday stroller was a Bebecar Tracker AT; I have also owned a Graco Chauffeur Coach Rider 2004 model)

So here is why I considered this stroller, when I bought it, and how it performes for me:

I have bought this stroller to use at the end of my second pregnancy, after trying out for 1 day a $40 light umbrella form Hauck Sun Sport 22. I was looking for a stroller that would have a large, easily accessible basket with reinforced bottom - to use for all the stuff I need to take along while going out with a 2 year old toddler (sand bucket, towel, lunch, 2 water bottles, spare shorts&shirt, a couple of diapers, extra leash for the dog, extra hat, sunblock bottle, wallet, and some other things) - well it performes very well, nothing falls out. The handle bar swing open on either side witha puch of a button, so I do not need to lift tha baby out, and I'm sure will probe to be a blessing during winter season with snowpants and snowboots. The full recline allows for a 2 year old to stretch out and have anice nap, the vetilation in the canopy is very nice during hot, humid days, the full canopy can be lowered almost to the arm rest, so it is nice in winter to protect from the elements. The foot rests upholstery zips up into the sides of the arm rest creating a nice bassinet-type enclosure for a newborn. The sides arm rests, and the sides of the back rest are raised about 8', this creates a nice bucket like comfort for a child. The seat itself is well padded and wide enough to accomodate the growing child, without feeling like it will fallout. The child truly is quite comfortable. The wheels are a nice thicknes and the front suspension is very soft, creating a smooth ride for a child. Teh boot itself is very roomy and will fit when a child grows up. The rain cover fits snugly, so it will create a cozy environment on cold windy days, as does the UV protective cover.
It folds very flat, so it will fit into any car, and is very light - the design allows for a good weight distribution.
Becasue of the size and portability of the stroller, it will tip if there is too much weight - but this happens with all small sized strollers.

This is a very good ride.


Jan 4th, 2007 - I have not sold the stroller - it ended up moving like a cow after a few weeks. I'm not usre if it has something to do with the way it is balanced, or the weight of the child (about 33 lbs). My friend who owns the exact same one, complained about this issue as well. It is too ba, since it is a such a nice little buggy. However, I do not own a small stroller of any kind right now aside for a couple of full sized ones, so this maybe a typical thing once the child reaches a certain weight.
