Need help from the stroller professionals

[tumblebug]

Okay... I need an all-terrain stroller for 1 kiddo that fits in a trunk, has a decent sun shade, will hold water bottles/nuby sippy cups, and has easy access storage for a big diaper bag. I'm not rich... so I would prefer something under $200. Is it possible???

[tumblebug]

Has anybody tried the kolcraft Contours Options 3? Do you think it would work for a tall 2 year old?? Some of the reviews say that the kids legs hang over the footrest. :(

It is pretty short and not a lot of leg room.

[tumblebug]

Thanks. I've decided it's not possible.

I have the kolcraft and its really not that bad. I don't know what you consider "all-terrain" but big lots has the eddie bauer jogging stroller all the time and it looks nice and is relatively cheap.

Ohhh thank you! That looks PERFECT!!! I have been searching for hours and didn't even see that one.

Hey Tumble, Starlight has a single jogger with a front swivel wheel. Here is a thread where she talks about it.

I was going to suggest the Baby Trend as well, one of my friends just got one so we could do some trail walking. It had 16" rear wheels with a 12" swivel/lockable front wheel. She purchased it from Baby Depot http://www.burlingtoncoatfactory.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Section_Id=9552&pcount=&pn=0&Product_Id=477658&sku1=k_s1_77020851&is_baby_depot=1. It sounds like it fits what you are looking for.
Good Luck,
Michelle :p

I like the Baby Trend, I sell a lot of them, but I like the Instep Safari better. This years model has updates!

[tumblebug]

Thanks for the suggestions keep 'em coming!

I am going to take DN to Target today and see if they have the baby trend we can try out.

Do you think a swivel wheel would be better on a dirt trail? I know some of the swivel wheeled ones lock.

[Judi]

The baby trend and instep safari both swivel and lock, I really like that I could do both. Dirt trail may do fine with swivel.

I think I've decided on the 2008 Instep Safari!! Now I just need to decide on a color. Thanks for all of your input!!
