Need a new stroller, please recommend one

Been using snap and go but I think it's time for a stroller, DS is too heavy for me to carry in a carseat. So could you please recommend your stroller?
Thank u
Lol, had to edit the title, I meant recommend, not commend, my Ipad needs to be replaced...

Graco Metrolite or Graco Urbanlite.. Both have a weight limit of 50lbs and are really lightweight!!! Full recline, big basket, cup holders...

I have a city mini single and the city select. I love the city mini! I haven't really used the city select yet but I love all of its features. If you plan on having another baby soon, opt for the city select because it converts into double.

Re: Need a new stroller, please recommend one

I'm leaning more toward city mini, but is there a new 2013 model out yet or will it be out soon I wonder? Can't find any info.
Also a parent at DD's school told me that she doesn't like the fact that the seat doesn't fully recline on city mini and the basket is very small -she has 2012 but she said most parents she knows don't seem to mind. Any thought on this?

Somebody posted today that the Target in Levittown has the City Micro for $99. I've seen it IRL and it's really nice. All my friends love their City Minis.

Just switched my 6.5mo to the city mini today. I really like it so far. Way better than the snap n go.

City mini! I Love it! I have the 2012 & it fully reclines or sits fully upright. The basket is a little small but it's really accessible.

I had the Chicco stroller & it turned out to be such a POS!

I have an '11 City Mini, I'm not sure if it's any different from the '12. I mostly love it. I dislike the small, inaccessible basket and that the seat doesn't sit up to a full 90 degree angle, it's always slightly reclined back. DD doesn't care much for laying down so maybe I never noticed but I *thought* it does lay down flat, or at least very close to flat. Otherwise, it's a great stroller, handles wonderfully, folds up very easily and is light weight. I like mine enough that I bought a double city mini since baby #2 is on it's way. I do really wish they'd fix that damn basket though! Chat Icon

yes actually I made a mistake above, the mom said it doesn't go all the way upright, like you said, not recline, sorry.
Wonder ifthis is the case on 2012 also, have to go to a sto and check them out if I ever get to them ...
