Help picking a stroller...thanks!
I'm trying to decide between both of these strollers...they are the exact same print but can't seem to decide which has more pro's than the other. I registered for an infant Carrier w/Snap & Go so I'm looking for something the next stage. I'd love to hear comments and opinions on both. Thanks.
Graco Quattro Tour
Graco Metrolite

I had the metrolite for DS and it was ok.
My sister has the Quattro for my nephew and it's so much better! I like the way it folds and how the seat reclines.

I think the Quattro is better than the metrolite - My friend has the Quattro and loves it -
I will tell you though, if you plan to do a LOT of walking (I'm not talking just mall walking or the ocassional trip to the park) - You're probably better off w/ something w/ better wheels/tires

Re: Help picking a stroller...thanks!
I had the Quattro initially for DS...it is HEAVY!!! (20+ lbs) Hated every second of it.
My friend has the Metrolite and loooooves it. Has been using it for 2 years now with no complaints.
I wound up selling the Quattro and got the Peg Perego Aria. It's a lightweight stroller (7lbs), has snack tray and cupholder for DC, and a parent cupholder. It reclines and maneuvers relatively well.

Re: Help picking a stroller...thanks!
My friend has the metrolite and LOVES it. She takes it everywhere because it's so light and the infant seat also snaps onto it (ie: you wouldn't need the snap n go also).
I have the peg perego pliko p3 and I love it. It's 17 lbs so it's kinda "mid-weight" but has so many functions including the recline so it's great for us. But if I were going to choose between those two, I'd pick the lighter one. I plan to get a much lighter stroller once DD gets older.

I have a metrolite and like it. It serves its purpose. No extras bells and whistles, but it's an easy stroller to use. Not the best for walks on pavement. I use my city mini for outdoor walks.

Re: Help picking a stroller...thanks!
I have both the Quattro Tour and the Metrolite. Yes, the Quattro Tour is nice, BUT it's huge and very heavy to lift. I prefer my Metrolite when i got to the doctor's office or similar places. The Quattro Tour seems like im so far away from my DD and she always seems tight in there where as the Metrolite she has some room to move around. Fits easier in the back on my Forrester too, the Quattro Tour takes up so much room. I voted Metrolite.
