Stoller help from parents?? (Chicco and Peg Perego).

I originally registered for the Peg Perego pliko 3. I still love this stroller, but found another stroller that I like a lot. It is the Chicco Cortina Travel System. I love the color and is seems like a good stroller.
I checked both stroller in my baby Bargain book and they both got good ratings.
The only thing I noticed is that the Chicco doesn't have a well padded seat. The Peg Perego seems much better. There is a big price difference between the two, so I'm wondering if the Peg Perego is a better quality stroller.

I figured I come on here and ask the experts.

I have the Chicco Cortina Travel System (Discovery pattern) and it's a great stroller and car seat. Not only do they wash really well, but the seat is padded nicely and it strolls beautifully. My ONLY thing about it is that if you are only using the stroller, the hood needs to be made bigger. I'm hoping they will correct this at some point. Otherwise, excellent stroller!

That is the exact stroller I want. I love how it looks. I also registered for the high chair in Discovery. Do you have a snap and go? Do you know if the Chicco key fit fits in any of the snap and Go? I know it doesn't fit in the Graco one.

i don't know about the chicco, but i LOVED my Pliko and miss it now that I've had to move on to a double. It was the only stroller I ever used (except for my jogger, but that was for jogging).

I have the Chicco Cortina and I love it! I think it glides nice and I think it is padded just fine.
The only downfall I have is that now with baby #2, Chicco doesn't make a double stroller, so I have to put his car seat in the stroller (unsecured) or take him out.

I like my Peg, but it doesn't lay completely flat, while the chicco does. this is a nice feature in the early months if you want your baby to nap on the go. my baby now needs to take his naps at home in his crib so it's not an issue anymore.

I have the Pliko3 and love it! The only negative thing is the basket under the stroller is small.

I have a Pliko P3 and love it. It's comfy and it's 5 years old and has held up extremely well.

I have the Chicco and love it. He always seems comfy in it. I do agree that the shade needs to be bigger though.

I have the chicco key fit, and use it in with the universal snap and go, its been great. The basket on that snap and go is huge -love it!

Here's a link to the exact one I have: http://www.target.com/Universal-Infant-Seat-Carrier-Black/dp/B000A3WHHQ/sr=1-20/qid=1224611371/ref=sr_1_20/602-1891425-0674218?ie=UTF8&index=target&rh=k%3Akolcraft&page=1

Re: Stoller help from parents?? (Chicco and Peg Perego).

I love my Pliko! I love everything about it! The shade, the adjustable seat, the snack tray, the basket and how it folds.

I've had mine for 2 years and use it ALOT even with 2 babies and it still looks brand new.

Best money ever spent on a stroller and I've had manyChat Icon

I love the Pliko 3- the only complaint is that it has 2 handlebars opposed to one long bar so you usually need 2 hands to steer the stroller. Not a biggie though.
