I've loved the Combi Cosmo EX. I love how small it folds, how light it is, how FULLY the hood covers, the bar in front that moves, the child cup holder, the carry strap. But monster step son is just getting way to big for it. I want a stroller with same size or BIGGER wheels, compact fold and tray/bar.
I would love a carry strap and a light weight stroller.

I think the Trevi is my choice... can anyone else think of a stroller that would meet my needs??

The Trevi's hood has very minimal coverage...

I would buy a peg perego p3 as it seems to meet your qualifications.

These are on sale

You can borrow my Pliko Lite to see if you like it. I said BORROW, remember.

"borrow" lol I'm taking his two strollers and his gDiapers to Reruns for Kids today to see what they have to say... So I'll be strollerless until they sell everything. Which honestly is fine cuz I have the Ergo.
What about the BOB??
I love love love that stroller. I'm afraid though if I make it my only stroller (it would have to be) that I'll get frustrated with the huge front wheel when we're in the store. So I was looking at the Revolution but there's no front brake, which I think would annoy me cuz that's one of my favorite features. I know it's not that compact when folded but when I was using it almost daily I was very very fast at breaking it down (folding and popping off the wheels). On a daily basis I wouldn't need to take the wheels off. It would fit a big big big kid fine, it'd be way comfy and would by far be the best option for the dog park... I make the Cosmo work and could make almost any stroller work but yeah... We don't go IN stores very often.

I just don't know.

I think I'm in need of a trip to BRU up north this weekend... between strollers and the MyRide, yeah.

The P3 looks huge, does it shrink way down??
I think I'll watch some babygizmo youtube videos this evening...

Judi, I'm worried that the pliko lite doesn't have anywhere to put food for him. lol You've seen him, he needs food constantly!! hahahaha But honestly it does make my life way easier.

Hooold on. What are you selling? Do I get first dibs???? And yes, I think you need the P3, not the lite, and yes, the P3 fold is great.

lol You can have first dibs... I'm not sure you'll want any of it though...
I'm selling the Combi Cosmo EX:

I'm also selling his Kolcraft Contours... I used it a few times but blah, it takes up so much dang space!!! It was DF's before I met him so it was only used for a few months...then came me and the puppy and I needed something smaller! lol

Oh, and ALL of his gDiapers!!

Oh, what a pretty purple! But, you are right, I don't need it. I want a Valco!

That is the only thing I like about that stroller, the purple color, it's even better in person. But yeah, the BOB with wheels on collapses just a bit smaller I believe!! It's handle is quite short (much shorter than the Combi) the front wheels aren't made for DSS2's weight. The tray isn't removable, you've got to lift him in around/over it.
blah blah blah lol

Judi... any idea where I could consign them?? Reruns wanted half the sale, which would be totally awesome (given their cause) if I wasn't funding my new stroller with the cash from these!

I would try craigslist, before consigning. then Kid's Stuff, then Reruns. Not.not.NOT Once Upon A Child.

Craigslist... I'm so not having my luck. lol Salem sucks.
I posted the gDiapers on diaperswappers also.

But I'm curious, why not Once Upon a Child?

You won't get much money at all. I took in a toy once, great condition. They were selling one in the same condition, for $10.50, they gave me 50 cents. It is the norm for them.

Hey, can you keep an ear peeled for if anyone may want one of the strollers?? Maybe kinda like when I bought the MA from you??

Judi

Thank you!! I trust you, you can quote whatever price you want for them, new the Combi is 130 and the Kolcraft looks like about 80. If you want we can meet up so you can see their condition if you want.


If I write Valco over the Combi wording with a sharpie for you will that bring the value down or up?? hahahaha :love:
