Umbrella (light weight) Strollers

Which do you have? And do you like it? Is it worth it to spend $$$

I have a full size stroller - I want to get a lightweight one for traveling.

THANKS!

I have Combi Soho DX stroller and I love it! I found the metrolite was just too bulky to use in stores and for quick trips. The Combi is so lightweight and folds up small and the seat reclines fully, unlike a basic umbrella stroller. It was priced around $120, but I got it half price, when forever young was going out of business. I keep the metrolite at home and use it for walks.

My Mil bought us one from the Carter's outlet in Carle Place for 15 dollars. There is no basket underneath but it has a sun shade.

Mine is a Chicco London Stroller. It was about $70 when we got it, but so worth it. I love it. my other stroller is a Peg Perego Venezia.

Re: Umbrella (light weight) Strollers

I am looking for a lighter stroller than the Quattro tour that I have. We are doing to Disney in October so I want one with a basket and reclining but not so heavy.

I have the Jeep one. Not sure how much it was since I got it at my shower and it wasnt on my registry. I can't wait to use it since the Travel system is very heavy.

Re: Umbrella (light weight) Strollers

I have the Maclaren Quest and I LOVE it. It is so light, manuvers really well and it's compact. For trips to the mall or when Emily will be sitting for a long time I will still use my Peg Perego, but the Quest is great for trips to the store, errands, etc.

We have this one also and I love it too. It folds up like an umbrella stroller and has a handle on the side to carry it like a duffle bag. It reclines and comes with a plastic rain cover. Also the handles are pretty high so it's great if you are tall. It was $89.99 at BRU.

I went home to NY last month by myself and it was so easy to use.
