I was at BRU today looking for a lightweight stroller that folds compactly to keep in the back of my Xterra for DS. I played with the Graco Mosaic LX, the Maclaren Triumph, and the Britax Preview. I liked the Graco Mosaic, but it was the heaviest of all the strollers, and I did not like the fact that the peek-a-boo plastic in the canopy does not have a cover to keep the sun from coming in. The Macleren was very light, but DH and I just didn't like the look or feel of it. IMHO, it seemed pretty sparse for the price and just felt and looked like a glorified umbrella stroller. But, it was incredibly light at 11lbs, so that was a definite plus. Finally, we looked at the Britax Preview. This stroller is only $10 more than the Mosaic, and 17lbs. I ended up buying the Preview, because the handle height and grip are very comfortable, and I could steer it with one hand easily. I found it very easy to fold and unfold, and it folds pretty compactly. The seat has a 4-position recline, just like my full-sized Graco Quattro Tour. There is a decent amount of room in the storage area, but no cup holder for the adult, which would bother DH more than me. I still have to test it out at the grocery or the mall, but I think I am going to be happy with it. If not, I'll give the Preview to DH to keep in his trunk, and I'll go and buy something else to keep in my car! LOL
Also, if anyone has a Preview already, could you please tell me what the D-Ring looking-things on the side of the waist straps are? The manual makes no mention of their use.
