Re: ok so one more round of stroller talk
I got the Peg Perego Pliko3 and I love it. Of course I don't have a baby to put in it yet. I also got a snap and Go for the car seat.

Re: ok so one more round of stroller talk
the switch is just like the pilko 3 except you can arrange the handles so the baby can face u or go there other way.

Well i loved the skate but the baby can only be in it for a certain weight, and then i will use the switch more. Plus my mother is gonna watch the baby when im back to work so she kinda needs a stroller at her house.

Re: ok so one more round of stroller talk
Peg Perego Skate weight limist is 45 pounds, same as the Pliko P3
The Pliko P3 is the regular Pliko
The Pliko Switch doesnt switch handles but instead changes the seat from facing out to also facing you.
No one needs a Pliko and a Snap N. Go. Waste of money
I have the Skate. It is AMAZING to manuver. It is heavy but that doesnt bother me.
It has a large fold, but it is not meant to be a travel stroller. It is a FULL SIZE strolelr that is great for winters and city walking and the like.
My daughter slept in her Skate for a long time, like 4 months or 5 . It is small and the size was perfect for her not to feel lost.

Re: ok so one more round of stroller talk
I thoroughly researched and tried out the P3 and the Switch. I really thought I'd end up with the switch b/c I wanted the baby to be able to face me. However, after playing with them in the store, I thought the P3 was lighter, easier to close, and had a better fold, as well as takes up less room in the trunk. On top of that it's much cheaper. By the way, in addition to being very heavy, the Skate also no basket - just a net at the bottom.
Also, I completely disagree about not needing a snap-n-go.
The snap-n-go is very convenient b/c you can just pop out the infant car seat and put it in there as opposed to disturbing the baby by taking him/her out of the carseat to put into a carriage. If you get the Peg car seat then you can put it into the P3 carraige, but it's a lot heavier and bulkier than just using the lightwieght snap-n-go. I personally opted not to get the Peg carseat because I heard a lot of negative things on the boards, from friends AND from the sales person at BBB. If you test it out in the store you will see it is quit bit heavier than the others.

so what would you reccomend?? i thought for the very beginning the seat comes entirely off of the p3 and it turns into a snap and go? am i wrong?? this whole stroller thing keeps me up at night lol

Re: ok so one more round of stroller talk
With the regular Pliko P3, which is what I went with and recommend, the seat does not come off the frame (chassis). Therefore, you can either use a Peg Perego infant carseat and just put it in the carriage as a travel system OR you can get any car seat you want and use a snap-n-go. I got the Chicco Keyfit carseat (excellent reviews) and the snap-n-go AND the Pliko P3. The Pliko Switch seat DOES come off the chassis and can face out or towards you. You can also use the frame (chassis) of the Switch to hold a Peg Perego carseat (I'm pretty sure) as you would with a snap-n-go system. I hope that didn't confuse you more. Your best bet is to go to the store and test them both out.
