Peg Perego Aria

[Shaggy]

I thought this might be the answer to my dreams - as light as an umbrella stroller but with all the extras like a snack tray etc. etc. BUT.... I've read several bad reviews saying that these strollers fall apart and don't steer well/straight. Wondered if anyone has any views?
I'm also wondering if PP have sorted out these issues in their newer models?

Well I can tell you that we hated our Aria Twin!! The idea is great ... but it feels soo flimsy and "cheap"... Our twin was an '05.. no experience with the regular or the newer ones.

Yeah, I like mine, but it's kind of falling apart under it's own weight (on the plus side, the one hand fold, snack tray, and ratcheting canopy are excellent...on the minus side, it's NOT the quality you'd expect for the price... ) I only use mine as a mall stroller...it's too prissy to be used outside, but the huge basket is divine

(PS, I have the 2007 OH Model, which is still lacking quality, but is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY nicer than the 2006 and older models)

I have one that I got used and it's just OK. I keep it in the trunk for occasional trips into stores & we travel with it since it folds up nice, but it doesn't steer very well & doesn't seem all that sturdy. Our main stroller is a BOB SUS & we love it!

I sold mine and got a mac triumph after "test driving" it in a store. The smooth ride and easy pushing and lower price tag (last years model sale) made up for no snack tray....

ETA: We have had the triumph for 1.5 and it is still going strong...

I did not like mine too.
