Stroller Question

[Brooke-From-TX]

I did not post this over there because it is quite dead and I need to make a decision quickly. I just sold my quinny zapp and would like another lightweight stroller. I was looking at a mac volo but wondered if there was anything better/compareable out there.

Thanks!

How old is the child? Weight?

What features are important to you?

What is your budget?

Would you considered used?

My daughter is 26 lbs. and 20 months old. I am just looking for something lightweight that pushes nicely. I have a Bob Revolution for my bigger stoller.

I've been drooling over the Baby Planet endangered species strollers. :thumbsup:

Budget?

For something lightweight and easy to push I would probably just stay with the Maclarens. Your Volo is going to be your barebones Mac. No recline, no padding, might be cold in the winter.

Someone else is selling the Chicco C5 on this site. That is what we have and we love it.

It is great for tall people
It handles very nicely
It has somewhat of a recline

Negatives
It is hard to get it "unlocked" when you are trying to open it up.
I am not crazy about the clips that connect the 5 pt harness
the basket is small, but it comes with the territory of an umbrella.

My SIL has a nice, lightweight mia moda that she loves too.

I don't think you can go wrong with a Mac for what you are looking for. I may go up to a Triumph though just for the more comfortable seat. Check out craigslist too since I see them for great prices all the time. The Houston CL has a great looking Triumph for $50.
