 front wheels break September 8, 2008
H. McQueen (Cleveland, OH)
After only a couple of months of use the two front wheels broke- they tend to turn sideways or go in different directions causing the stroller to stop and almost flip. I still use it but have to push it tilted on the two back wheels with the front off the ground to prevent this problem. I would have been better off with a $20 stroller or spending a bit more money for one that would last longer.
Front wheel design flaw August 10, 2008
B. Lorenzen (Bloomington, Indiana)
There was much that I initially liked about this stroller. It has a nice overall design, and it's a good size. However, there appears to be a major design flaw in the front wheels, and they lock up continuously. Initially it only happened on somewhat rough surfaces, but now it's constant. We've reached a point, after only about 7 months of use, that we have to get a different stroller, because it won't go for more than a few feet without the front wheels locking up, unless we're on a perfectly smooth surface. I've noticed that most strollers have double front wheels on each side, and I regret not having taken note of this before I bought this stroller. The apparatus that holds the wheels in place is just a snap on part, that wobbles easily, and that also appears to add to the problem with the wheels.
There is also little back support, so my daughter tends to slouch in this stroller. The back is held in an upright position by a strap that is adjustable, but since the back is made of what seems to be corrugated plastic, it bows, and between that and the strap, it stays in a somewhat reclined position rather than solidly upright.
 Just OK ... August 1, 2008
Bree (NJ)
My daughter was 10-months-old back when I bought this stroller for her in May. For the first 2-3 weeks it seemed to handle bumpy sidewalks rather well but after I had it for about a month, it seems like it's harder to navigate. The front wheels go in different directions and don't seem as supportive as before which makes it difficult to get up and down the sidewalk. The stroller also squeaks which can be rather annoying so maybe I need to lube the wheels; I don't think I should even have to do that though being the stroller is only 2.5 months old!
What drives me bonkers is the strap for lowering and raising the seat; it's one of those straps that you have to pull tight or loosen. Like others have said, the snack tray is awkward as my daughter really has to pull herself up to reach it and it blocks her view while riding.
There's a cup holder on top for Mommy or Daddy and it holds drinks well with minimal spilling. As for the iPod speaker/dock I have not used it yet but I do think it's nice to have with a side pocket for it on the awning. There is ample room in the bottom net for storage and it's easy to get to what you need down there even with your child in the stroller.
All in all it's a great looking stroller but I think the price is a little high for what you get.
Missing parts July 22, 2008
Holly Schmidt-Davis (Decatur, GA USA)
I paid for overnight shipping through Amazon, which worked great -- except that my stroller is missing a rear axle. I called customer service, and they're sending a new one, but it will take over a week to get it.
So much for overnight service.
 Exactly what I was looking for July 18, 2008
Amy Jo (Louisville, KY United States)
After a very lengthy lightweight stroller search, I finally decided on this one after reading its great reviews. It is just what I had in mind. What made it even better was that I ordered it one day and received it at my doorstep the very next.
It is very lightweight and folds up very easily and compact. It seems comfortable for my 10 month old, she doesn't mind being in it. The sun canopy actually covers what it needs to, unlike many other strollers. The stroller is very smooth and easy to push. My husband had no idea what I was ordering but once it got here, he was very happy with it as well.
My only complaint, which I had read in other reviews before I bought it, is that the tray does seem a little high for my daughter right now.
Overall though, this is a great stroller and I'm so glad I purchased this one instead of one that was twice the cost.
