None, because the snap and go is better for the infant carseat stage, and there are much better big kid strollers out there sold by themselves.

Depends where you live and where you will be using your stroller.

The Maclarens fold much easier and are far lighter, so easy for in and out of the car.

With my first I lived in the city, and used the stroller instead of getting in the car, so I had a Mountain Buggy Urban Single which is amazing for bumpy sidewalks, pushing through snow, getting up curbs/stairs.

I've heard good things about the Zippy and P3 for mall moms.

There is a lot out there depending on your needs, there is no one perfect stoller for all situations.

We got the bugaboo.

- seat for stroller

We registered for the Quninny Buzz. I love that it manuevers very well on city sidewalks, unfolds itself and folds compact. I can use a car seat, bassinett or regular seat. It works for me.

I have the Chicco Cortina Travel System and love it!!! I am personally not a fan of snap n go's. And the price is excellent because it is the infant seat, base and the mid size car seat.

I don't mean to be a bummer, but my friend HATES her Quinny Buzz. She lives in Manhattan and finds it to be such a drama to use.

On topic, I got the Metrolite in Delancy. We are still in the infant carrier at 6.5 months, so it is great for us.

Im still so confused....

I think i want something more durable then the metrolite since I will have the snap n go. I walk around the neighborhood ALOT with my dog now... so baby will be joining us to the park and everywhere else.

However, I dont know what graco is the best there are so many models, also does the safeseat and snugride BOTH fit in the snap n go. The quattro delux comese with the safeseat, other with snugride.... ahhhhh
tooo many choices. How did you decide?

I have this one too and love it!! It's easy and light and DD is comfy in it. The only drawback is now that I need a double the infant seat isn't compatible with anyChat Icon

So I have to get a new infant seat if I want a double stroller.

I registered with my first for the Pliko 3 and the peg perego carseat. I liked it because the stroller folded up like and umbrella and was light (I think it is 19lbs.) . So I never felt the need to go out and get a true umbrella stroller. I still use it alot with my second now too.

Re: What travel system did you register for ??

I didn't register for a system. As others wrote, we ended up registering for the snap and go and then it came down to the Pliko P3 and the Zippy. After MANY trips to the store we ended up going with the P3.
