Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

So I know these two are totally different, BUT if you were going to use a Snap and Go for the first year and then had to choose 1 primary stroller between these two options, which would you choose?

TIA!!!

I registered for the peg and got it. I have the plikko but it looks similiar to the one you posted. After that I got the BOB. I love it! I only use the peg in DH's car. You can use a pinky to steer and it's so light to push. It's heavier to pick up but glides so nicely.

Re: Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

I have the Bob, Peg Perego Pliko3 and a snap and Go.

I loved the Snap and Go and used it a lot when DS was little. When DS reached about 5 months I didn't really use the Snap and go anymore. The snap and go is really only good up until your DC is 6 months. I couldn't imagine using it till one years old. They are way to big and would be uncomfortable. Don't expect to use it past 5-6 months.

Now for the two stroller:

I love love the Bob!! It is an amazing stroller. The only problem is you really have to wait until your DC is 6 months to put them in it. It is not made for young babies.
I still think you need another stroller other then the Bob. The Bob is pretty big and not as comfy for babies to take naps in. Plus it has no tray for them. Still, I would buy this stoller again in a second! It makes taking walks so much better. I even bring it to the mall. It is so easy to push and can manuver it with one hand.

My Peg Perego is a nice stroller, but if I could do it over again, I don't think I would of registered for it. It was a lot of money, and I don't think its much better then a Chicco, or graco stroller. If I could go back, these are the three stroller I would buy:

1. Snap and Go
2. Bob
3. Between these three ( Graco, Chicco Cortina, or a City Mini). City Mini would probably be my top choice.

I use the Bob so much, that I only need the other strollers for certain situations. So, I think a cheaper stroller would of worked just as good.

I have the BOB and love it. If you are runner or like to walk a lot...get it! otherwise, stick with a lighter stroller. The BOB is not heavy 20lbs but bulky if you are shopping etc...IMO. I have the BOB and use when to run, beach (great for the sand etc) peg perego venezia when out shopping (bigger basket and lighter) HTH.

Re: Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

Hmmm....tough one. I love the BOB (I just got the double)---that said I know others who have the pliko and love it for all the features. For myself, if I had to pick, I would probably do the BOB, only bc I walk a lot and our sidewalks are tough. If it was mainly for the mall, errands, etc, I might go with the pliko
I have the citymini and loved it the first year, then my DS was tired of being at a recline even when the seat was all the way up and I wanted something even lighter for errands. I still use my Citymini for walks and use a Volo for errands.
I also agree with the AP about not using the snap&go for a year, while it may be possible, my DS wanted to look at everything and he had outgrown the infant carseat by then.

I LOVE the BOB as well! Aslo, you do not have to wait until they are six months as someone posted....Bob sells an infant seat adapter! Definitely get the BOB.

Re: Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

i love my snap n go and now i have a city mini double (for my two girls) but when I only had dd, I lived by the snap - n go when she was a baby and then later used my bumbleride and peg perego...i liked the bumbleride better...i have heard bobs are hard to lug in and out of the car (and I have an suv!) too - as someone already posted...although i have the double, i would say the citi mini is awesome (they have a single too!) - you can get a tray for it, too....

Re: Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

I love the BOB, but wouldn't use it as a primary stroller. It's on the heavier side and pretty big to maneuver in stores and restaurants. I use the BOB for walks around the neighborhood, in the park, on trails, etc. The BOB has an infant car seat adapter so you can use it early on. You're not supposed to jog with it though until DC is at least 6 months.

I use the Peg Perego Pliko P3 as my primary stroller now. I love it. It's lightweight and so easy to maneuver.

Re: Crashing from Pregnancy - Need Help - Stroller Poll

my only suggestion about strollers is to look at weight and size.. we had a huge stroller when ds was born and it took up 1/2 my rav4.... so we learned to look at how much they weigh and how well they fold
