Combi Spoleto...anyone have any experience with one?

[SavsMom]

I currently have a Peg Perego Pliko Lite and love it, but I am really wanting to get a lightweight stroller with a child tray as we plan on going to Disney and right now my 14 month old really needs a tray for her sippy and snacks. I have the chance to buy a new Combi Spoleto for CHEAP and was wondering if anyone has any experience with one since I can't find one in my area to play with....any thoughts?

my friend (who I should say by now is a stroller fiend) who has 4 Ruthie's age and younger had one... and I've tried out all her strollers except a few...

she had one and she loved it... it was made better and also was shorter than the typical graco that it resembles... she's petite, so shorter was something she was looking for.

The adjustable handle made it tall enough that I could push it, but I kicked the back wheels if I wasn't careful with my big size 11 shoes.

It isn't nearly as compact as the other combis... what I'd do for disney is get any combi... going by which you like best... and then get a carry-you piccolo or siena to convert the bar to a tray, OR... because the price is SOO low due to it just not selling well, get the Graco Cleo for 90 bucks! It has the features you like on the pliko light (though it's really more like the p3), plus a tray. http://www.albeebaby.com/graco-cleo-stroller-6d00meo3-meteor.html
with either one, though, I'd consider also getting an add-on sunshade from protect-a-bub

Thanks for the info. I had a Graco Quattro Tour...but got rid of it about 2 months ago, and now I am thinking I got rid of it too soon. However the Spoleto and/or the Torino seem to be a good replacement and are much lighter than my old Graco. I had also looked at the Cleo, but think I am more impressed with the Combi. Hmmm....decisions decisions!
