Super Cute!
I almost picked red....but orange was just calling my name! Do you like it so far?
YES!
I got it on Friday. REALLY teeny box. Waited until Saturday morning for my husband to not be too tired to put it together. (I know, I know. Before I got married I did it all for myself. But I like having the help!) But as it turns out, I could have done it all myself. We could not find the instructions, but were able to figure out where the few loose pieces went on our own. (The instructions were eventually found in the back pocket of the stroller.)
The box was awkward, but light enough I could handle on my own. The stroller, of course, is VERY light. But sturdy. I don't worry about it breaking with handling.
The first time I unfolded and folded, the stroller was prevented from unfolding completely because of the string from the back flap. (the thing that you unfold over the mesh to keep light from getting in when the stroller lies back). But once I got that out of the way, the stroller was ready to go. DS is not thrilled to be in a harness. But he smiled for the pictures and was content while out and about Saturday.
Things I learned:
1. When the stroller back is down, the stroller is more tippy. Normally I can hang my diaper bag off the back without it tipping, even when empty. But after I moved the seatback to its fully reclined position, when I took the baby out (to put him in his carseat) the stroller fell backward because of the weight of the bag!
2. There is velcro on the top of the flap that is supposed to be attached to the velcro on the hood. Its a bit tricky to find but its nice to not be flapping around anymore after you get it properly affixed
3. Don't be surprised if it doesn't fold flat after you recline and then unrecline the seat. I never did figure out what was going on, but I found unfolding it and folding again was enough to make it lie flat.
Ah yes I did get a chance to recline the seat -- though not to change a diaper (Yet. I chickened out since I had a diaper table available). DS was getting fussy so I put the seat all the way back and the hood out to try to get him to fall asleep while I shopped. He did not fall asleep. But he did stop fussing so the resting position evidently helped. (I had to keep the flaps closed or he would look up at me through the hood.
The stroller was really easy to get out and put back in, making quick trips into the library possible. The hood was nice when it rained.
I don't know what I will do when the fabric gets dirty. It does not appear to come off in any way I could find.
