Can you recommend your stroller?

We are looking into the all in one strollers that have the base, car seat and stroller. Which ones do you recommend?

Re: Can you recommend your stroller?

Unfortunately I can't - I haven't used it yet. BUT I can say that after reading and hearing numerous reviews we'll be using the Snap n Go for infant stage, and then the Maclaren Triumph.

I also know a lot of people LOVE the Baby Jogger City Mini. It was just too expensive for us. Plus we don't jog. Chat Icon

I LOVE my peg perego Vela. You can snap the peg perego verragio or whatever that carseat is called into it. It's SO lightweight and folds easy, not bulky at all!

However, I STRONGLY recommend the snap & go!! I wouldn't put at least 4+ months of wear and tear on your stroller when your baby isn't even IN the stroller yet, kwim? I was really against it but I'm so glad I decided to listen to everyone. It weighs like nothing and so practical especially in the beginning! If you go that way, then you don't need to get an expensive infant carrier and just get a graco.

Def snap and go in the beginning. Then something lightweight like the Maclaren or the City Mini based on your needs and despite the brand name Baby Jogger I think they only make one stroller that you can actually jog with, the mini, elite and select are just regular strollers. The mini is pretty lightweight from what I hear. I would suggest going to Buy Buy Baby and trying them out and closing them up and trying to lift them, check out cup holders and a if you can easily enter the basket under it, etc etc. BBB def has more of selection then BRU.

I have the Graco Quattro Tour and love, love, love it!!
Hate the snap and go, handle is too low for me and the darn things flips over when you take the seat out if you have the diaper bag on the handle!

That's why I didn't get the Graco Snap and Go because it's built like a piece of garbage. For ten dollars LESS I got the Jeep Universal Snap and Go and it had real tires which made the ride way better, it was WAAAAY taller than the Graco and Baby Trend, and it didn't tip over with the bag on the handle which I didn't need to do because the basket is super huge on the thing.

Snap and Go in the beginning all the way.

After going thru numerous strollers with DS#1, I can tell you the city select and city mini are my favorites. the select can expand to a double stroller. the mini is super light and a great umbrella stroller.

city mini and
the first years wave stroller. LOVE this one- it is front and rear facing and the seat also turns into a bassinet for when the baby is an infant. it comes with a universal car seat adaptor so any infant car seat will just snap right in too.
