Stroller Question...

I'm getting the UppaBaby Vista as our main stroller...but should I also get an umbrella stroller? Is it helpful to have?

I was thinking the Maclaren Volo... any recommendations or should I not even get one?

Re: Stroller Question...

You can but you have time I know over time the uppa gets heavy taking in and out of your car and you will want a lightweight stroller just to throw in the back of a car

Stroller Question...

I would wait on a 2nd stroller to see what you will need and when. My DS is 9 months and I do not need an umbrella. THinking about one when we travel but def have not needed one.

Re: Stroller Question...

Im getting the same main stroller but was also going to register for the maclaren globetrotter .. reason being is that I originally was going to go with the volo because it is the lightest one weighing at only 8.8lbs but it doesnt recline so if the baby falls asleep the neck would be falling over or to the side .. so I went with the lightest one that has a multiple position seat which is the globetrotter weighing at only 10.6lbs

Re: Stroller Question...

I'm also getting the UppaBaby Vista, but am holding off on a second stroller until I'm more sure what kind I'll want/need. I figure I have time for that.

Stroller Question...

We have a kolkraft litesport and it's great but I got it after I knew that DD won't sleep in the stroller EVER so I didn't need anything that reclined. Most umbrella strollers don't recline anyway, but some of the fancier lightweight strollers (like the uppababy gluxe) do. The litesport has a tray which is awesome because we feed DD in the stroller all the time and give her snacks and stuff there or she plays with her magna doodle in there and likes having the tray. It also has an awesome basket. It's easier to get a stroller that works for your lifestyle once you know what that would be (for me - tray and basket lol). You may need something that has very tall handlebars and reclines. So I'd just hang out and wait. You can always use a 20% off coupon later on, too, or order online.

Stroller Question...

We got an umbrella stroller around 12-15 months with DS and we use it a lot. So much easier then a bigger stroller. I don't have a fancy main one like the uppa baby, just a graco metrolite but I love it...so light!!!
