Britax Wizard strapped onto P3 - Car Seat.Org - Carseat, Vehicle & Child Passenger Safety Forums

Check this out. This is a Britax Wizard strapped to her Peg. That's alot of weight for that stroller. I got this off of StrollerSwap.

Here is her caption for the photo.

For the plane trip to Brasil, I was on my own with 3 kids and a dog, as John had gone down the month before. This set-up with the Britax Wizard in the P3 allowed me to stroll Caden in his carseat through the airport.

That's what people who fly regularly swear by- just piling it all in the stroller. I've never flown with DD- but if I did, that's what I would have done. Gosh, I used to load up my Pliko P3 heavier than that after trips to Target!!!!

of course, kiddo wasn't in it, LOL. By the time I fly with DD, I'm sure she'll be out of a carseat- (maybe even driving,ha!) I hate flying!

I have heard Peg claims there is no weight limit on their strollers, but I child in his car seat in the stroller probably isn't much more weight than one in the stroller seat and one on back?

I sooooooo want a new Peg. Does anyone have one for sale!!!

DaniCPST · 10-25-2006, 06:54 PM

Melissa I have an extra P3 sitting around that I have been meaning to sell...just too busy and too lazy!

It is a about 3 or 4 years old and is in the Eleganza pattern (dark blue with a thin white pinstripe creating boxes about 1.5" x 1.5"). The only reason I bought a new P3 is because I wanted one in Ambra to match my PP SIP carseat so now I don't use this one. It is in good condition but has an issue when opening that just requires you to push it open and click it into place as opposed to it clicking into place when the child is placed in it...and it is only occasionally that you have to do it yourself. Oh and there is a scratch on the snack tray but other then that it is a great P3! I don't want much for it since it just sits there anyway...maybe $90 plus shipping.

I am going to PM you! K?

That is a great deal!

Just a warning from one fellow Eleganza owner to another, be careful sliding DC into the stroller w/out opening the tray. The Eleganza fabric has a tendancy to rip at the seam on the pad where the shoes hit as they go down through. Happened to mine and several others w/ that color. Not a big deal if you open the tray lol. Mine also has that funky opening issue but it doesn't bother me at all. We kind of beat on ours but then again w/ 4 kids (now 5) the last thing I need to worry about is having to baby a stroller and our P3 has been a work horse! It is a great stroller for 2 kids when the older becomes a part time rider.

That is a great deal for a P3.
I just flew two weeks ago with ds and was bringing home my MA. I didn't want to check the seat or the stroller so I put it in my stroller. This worked well with the seat all the way down and I left the front tray on, it was actually quite snug in there. I was travelling by myself so I didn't really have any other options. I also was told there is no weight restriction.

I have heard that as well about the seat covers tearing, so I have been watching mine. I find it is easier to get ds in and out of the stroller if I open up the tray anyways!

I put my MA into my ZAPP and it was solid, I used the tether & D ring attached to the round tube under the ZAPP seat. It was sooo easy to get DD through the airport as I used her MA on the plane and put the Zapp in the over head bin.
