Stroller recommendation wanted

I was looking for a stroller to take DD on walks around the neighborhood and was thinking of getting a (hopefully relatively) inexpensive jogger stroller - just because I think it would give her a smoother ride and (maybe) then get her nice and sleepy Chat Icon when we go for our walks..

Can anyone recommend theirs? All we have for now is our snap n go (we were too spastic to pick out a regular stroller when I was preggo) - so something that could do double duty (neighborhood walks as well as handy for the mall/stores, etc.) would be ideal if possible!!

Thanks a bunch!

Its not cheap, but the Mountain Buggy Urban Single is exactly what you are looking for. Unlike a cheaper jogging stroller, the front wheel swivels so you can actually get around a store. Not as good for running, but if you are talking about just walking it will be perfect.

I love my Peg Pliko P3, it's lightweight, handles great, has a basket on the bottom, folds up compact. We take it everywhere, DD loves it!

I also have the Graco Quattro tour from my travel system, we take that one for walks and the mall mostly, it's got all the bells and whistles, parent tray/cup holder, BIG basket, lays completely flat for DD and has a cup/snack tray for her too. It's a big bigger and heavier.

I have a stroller napper, so it has to be comfy for her.

I honestly, love both my strollers. we had the stroller frame too.
This is why i having such a hard time finding a double i like, i have such high standards from these 2 strollers!

ETA: I am not sure there's a such a thing as a jogger that is mall/store compatible. All the ones i have seen i have been wide.

Not cheap, but I have a BumbleRide. I have the Flyer, but they have the Rocket (I think it's called), which is a jogger. I LOVE mine and it is such a smooth ride!

I just bought online the Bumbleride Rocket! It got great reviews. I hope it like it!

I second this - I have the Urban Double and it's great
