Question Does anyone have either of these strollers?

[CarSeatSafetyMom]

Does anyone know where I can go to see, touch, and try out either the First Years (Learning Curve) Wave Stroller or the Kolcraft Contours Options 3 Wheeler?

I live the the East Bay Area (Hayward/Castro Valley/San Lorenzo) of California.

I can find them online no problem, but haven't been able to find a store within 25 miles that has either to try out.

Does anyone here have one, can you tell me about it or do you live near by that I can meet you and try it out?

Thanks,

Please help me decide.

Thanks

I had the contour and loved it! My daughter always fell asleep I the seat and the basket underneath is very large and roomy. I also loved that you could take the seat off and fit the stroller in very small trunks. I am actually debating on getting the double now =]

I would recommend against the double. I have one and thought I would love it, but it is just a pain. I do still use it when necessary (once every 4 months or so) but I have found much better doubles. I love the options and the huge basket, but it is very heavy and hard to push. Getting it set up and taking it back down is difficult also.

I have the contours. I loved when I got it (dd was 6 months). We lived across the street from the boardwalk, and it was great being able to reverse the seat so the sun wasn't hitting her face, the canopy is big, the basket is huge. But I got sick of it. It too big, bulky and heavy, I got tired of loading and unloading it from the car. Plus it has VERY short seat back, and my tiny kid who at 26 months can still fit in several infant bucket seat, towers over the back of the stroller. I think the back of it is at her earlobes now level now. Don't know about the wave. Played with it at my BRU, its lighter than the contours, but again, the short seat back was a deal breaker for me. I guess I am spoiled by my city mini and its super tall seat.
