How does the mini compare to the micro? I know the wheels are smaller.

That CL Zapp is overpriced. You can get a brand new one from Albee for the same price-- and it comes with a raincover, travel bag, and maxi-cosi adapters.

The Zapp has a tiny fold, but I've heard it's tippy and I don't believe it has any recline, kind of like a Volo.

The Zapp Xtra has a whole-seat recline and it reverses. Canopy is tiny though.

No comparison IMHO (the Micro to the Mini that is). Mini has a huge canopy, excellent recline and is lighter than the Micro.

I am an oddball for 8 years running my Graco Quattro is still going strong. If I need a workhorse no-frills stoller, he's my guy. Huge basket, sturdy frame, great sun shade, full recline, takes a bucket, parent console... it's not fancy but it's a great pack mule.

For a smoother ride I have a Bob which you won't find at that price...

I had a quattro. I want something different. Would love a full size stroller and a compact stroller. We will see how many dh let's me buy.

The fuchsia and blue were discontinued (and therefore discounted) since they weren't popular. They're both slightly interesting colors IRL IMHO.

I got the black/blue one last week and OMG! the color is amazing!:love:

ETA: And if ds3 were a girl I would have been all over the black/fuchsia one!

They're bright colors. The blue is almost electric-y looking and the fuchsia is a hot, dark pink [if thats possible].



IMO, hard to push one-handed, hard-ish to steer (even going from a P3 to a Mac Quest is a big difference in push-- and the Quest isn't an awesomely-awesome stroller, but it handles better than the P3). Also, unless OP is buying used, its double her budget. For its drawbacks, I'd look at something else (City Mini, hint..hint..).

THe links I posted aren't double her budget... brand new, 199. She wants full size compact fold. There are many people who find their P3 very easy to push. It is an option that she can consider. Any umbrella fold stroller can take a little getting used to.

I bought the black/blue BJCM last year and :love: the color! The stroller itself is by far my favorite for so many reasons. It is easy to push, even fully loaded. The one handed fold is SO easy. It is so compact and fits in my trunk nicely with plenty of room to spare. If you pop the wheels off it is even smaller when folded. The canopy/hood is amazing and my DS has always been comfortable in it.
