OK so after my stroller test drives in Babies R Us..

I've come to the conclusion that they are all just bulky, awkward and inconvienent, be it 10lbs or 20lbs! Actually I only tested the mid-sized ones...but still...I'm convinced it doesn't matter which one I get, I'm going to be cursing while folding it up and putting it in the car!! Probably b/c i'm just lazy!!

The whole idea is so different for us, I think that's why. We have never had to lug around any paraphenalia with us until now! You'll find one you like Chat Icon

We are getting the City Series Stroller by Baby Jogger. It is light weight and folds in one very simple EASY grab. On the seat their is a strap that you grab a hold of and it folds in half, then to unfold it just do so and it snaps in place. Here is a picture, we also bought the bassinet to snap on for the beginning months..

The real thing is that we should be able to rent them for like a week and use them before we actually have to purchase one...especially being a first time mom its hard to really know what will work for you...I have gone through so many strollers in the past b/c they just werent compatible with my lifestyle...just get one that works for right now..and figure the rest out later on.

I agree. I hated them all & eventually just went with the Graco b/c it got the best ratings. I actually prefer the jogging stroller, and cannot wait to use that one full time.

If you don't like the big strollers (which I totally understand) why not just get the snap n go with your carseat. Then get an umbrella stroller when baby is bigger.

I only shopped for strollers up to 20 Lbs. I decided I would not enjoy hauling more than that and it would be too annoying to me.
