Reviewer Comments: I loved this stroller when I first saw it. I’m in the middle of nowhere and my only options for stroller shopping were [...] so when I trekked 40 min. out of town to Babies R Us, I was thrilled to see this stroller. I wish I would’ve driven back home and read the reviews before I purchased this. First the positives. It is a very cute stroller and somewhat affordable. I was not aware of the whole “bugagoo” comparisons, but most people around here don’t care about those things and wouldn’t know the difference. Second, the adjustable handle and being able to face the baby both ways is a great idea. Now the realities. It is a 2 part system and takes getting used to and having some finesse to load and unload from your car. Second, the seat can be pretty bulky to fit in the back of a trunk. Also, one little cup holder and a small compartment on the bottom of the stroller is not enough for me. I usually hang the diaper bag from the handle, so that I can whip out a bottle in a snap or grab a diaper real quick, or even place a few shopping bags if its not too much. No such luck with this stroller. The handles are too wide to fit anything around it. And to reiterate some of the other responses, the handle does start to feel flimsy after a few uses. And you can’t turn the baby around while she’s still in it. But the worst part of all, are the tires. Now, I have been very, very careful about where I use this stroller. After I came home and saw the reviews, I should’ve boxed it up and returned it immediately, but the positive responses it got counteracted the warnings, so I gave it a chance. Big mistake. Both tires already have a hole in them. As if having a baby isn’t expensive enough, now I’ve got to replace these tires. I can’t help but think that there could’ve been an easier way for the company to make those tires more affordable, economical and practical. But no. I always say, the baby industry is the last one to realize there is a recession going on. Please DO NOT BUY THIS STROLLER. YOU WILL REGRET IT.
