I have the Black Verve in EUC, an Orange (Soleo) Aria OH in GUC, and a Mountain Buggy Breeze in GUC (it got a little banged up on an airline trip, one little scrape on the fabric and a small dent in the metal basket)...in that Orange Cabana Stripe fabric. Post or PM me with any interest and I'll try to post pictures soon.

:love:

Ok, Here's some of the Aria (child NOT included...though...some days (pondering terrible twos she's in...)... no, no, Child NOT included!
http://picasaweb.google.com/joolstag/AriaVolo Oh, and more of the Aria http://picasaweb.google.com/joolstag/AriaAndCitySavvy

Ok, and here's the Breeze http://picasaweb.google.com/joolstag/MBs?authkey=T7zVKiV8Mns It doesn't have a swivel wheel, but it's balanced extremely well, and is even easy to push a tired 50 pound big sister with ease. It's been on bumpy trails, handled them like a dream. Has shock absorbers, stands alone when folded, is easy to fold with two thumbs (buttons on side of footplate), and does have a nice canopy, I just didn't get pictures of it. It's a good "sherpa"...I can load it with kids and bags to get through the airport, and it fits when still unfolded in the back of my minivan (sometimes I have stuff hanging off it after the zoo, it's easier to just lift the whole shebang into the van).

Here're some action shots of the Verve http://picasaweb.google.com/joolstag/Strollers It has tall handles, turns on a dime, folds with thumbs up by the handle, stands alone when folded, has some recline, a napper bar, and a decent hood. I took Leah out for a full day out at 11 months in it and she was very comfortable, napped easily, kept her snack trap attached to the front bar, and I could hang a fair amount of bags off the handle with no tippiness (used 'stroller swiv'lers')

Mama!

I THINK 75 pounds...need to find the manual...Ok, can't find the manual, but it's available online, but it's on .pdf, which is crashing my computer :P....so here's a page that says 77 and actually has my review on it! http://www.joggingstroller.com/Mountain-Buggy-Breeze.pro#pp-tabs

Hi, I'm still debating on the Verve! One last question - can you put an infant seat in it (baby facing the handlebar)? Or can you buy a carseat attachment for it? If we go for a 3rd baby, I'd want to be able to put the infant seat in it, like I can on my Zooper.

Dilemma is I'm now tempted by the City Mini (though I shouldn't spend that much on another stroller!) - how would you compare it to the Verve as for it's folded size? Can you fit in it on the floorboard like the Verve?
thanks for all the info!

No, no carseat in the verve :(. The Mini seems bigger in the fold, I didn't try to put it in the van like I did the verve...I'll give it a shot tomorrow :)

Yeah, I can cram the mini in behind an rf radian in my minivan.. not as easy as the verve, though....

Oh, and for anyone else looking at these beauties, the Aria is the OH (One Hand fold) model, that is considerably better than the older/cheaper MT's...it has a button on the handle you grasp as you lift the stroller, and it folds in seconds (squeeze, lift up, push down, done). It also has a masssive canopy that comes down to the snack tray when the seat is upright. It holds a carseat (even the SS1 fit on it fine), reclines almost flat, has the floating harness and upright seat that toddlers like for their freedom of movement (All strollers should have the ability...sigh...it must be patented by Peg?)

Ok, enough swooning, I'm about to want to keep this baby, and I really can't...

You wouldn't happen to have a Quinny Zapp you want to get rid of, would you? ;)

Seriously, I would have fifty strollers if I let myself go. My husband has forbidden any more stroller purchases. The Aria is particularly tempting, especially because I have a girlfriend that I am buying a car seat for pretty quick. Would a Keyfit work in it?

I never tried my KF in that Aria, but there's a universal carseat strap, so probably...

My Zapp went to a new home last week... :whistle:

Julie, my neighbor is out of town. If you still have the Peg when she comes back in a day or two I'll try to sell her on it. ;-)
