Is this a good deal? Is this a good stroller? (craigslist ad)

It's an older one. Maybe pre 2004 or 2003? Depends on how well it has been taken care of. I notice right off the bat it is missing the front bar or tray.

You would have to check it out mechanically. Try pushing with and without your child in it. Does it fold up well? Does it open well? Anything appear broke, cracked, or missing? Check the wheels make sure they aren't squared off.

It sure is pretty though I would offer them $15 or $20

It has the front bar (maybe they changed the picture, or did it just blend in the way you saw it, melissa?)... so that makes it pre-tray... so yeah, that's a Pliko, I'm almost sure of it, which doesn't steer as well as a P3 (the newer ones)...if you need that footrest for an older child to stand on, it's a great deal :)

Hehe, I copied and pasted my response from another thread I posted on, and forgot to edit the "tray/bar" part :eek:

If I remember correctly the foot stand isn't as big on this year Pliko as the newer ones. My Pliko P3 was a 2003 or 2004 and had the tray and bigger foot rest. If you can, I would hold out and try to get a newer version which is a Pliko P3 :)

It has to be a 2003 or older, as the 2004s were called P3s and came with a child tray, not just a bumper bar.
I LOVE the P3, and would hold out for one, over a Pliko, better made.

P3 is a pliko. Pliko P3 is what I had. I just didn't put P3 in my post.

Right but the older strollers are just known as the Pliko, I think it was in 2004 that they came out with the Pliko P3 ~ different model/style.

I would try and find the P3, the handles turn in some to help with the one handed steering, you can get the tray and the wheels look different.

ETA:
*Just to clarify, the stroller in the picture is a Pliko, in 2003 or 2004 they came out with the new model and called it the Pliko P3.
