A Fun Place Where Mommy Can Laugh, Learn, Love and Cry

Trying to decide on the right stroller...

I just started looking at strollers and I am a little overwhelmed! I am looking for one that has a pram or bassinet, goes to an upright position and also enables the car seat to be attached. One that is good for walking is also very important. These are the ones that I came up with:

1. Mutsy 4 rider

2. Baby jogger city elite

3. Baby jogger city select

4. Baby jogger city mini

5. Easy walker QTRO

6. Bill and Ted's Dash stroller.

If anyone has one of them or other suggetions I would really appreciate it...thanks:)

I remember trying to decide on all the baby items the first time around. It was so exciting but so very overwhelming! When I started registering I signed up for consumer reports online. I thought the website was great and helped me to compare every product. It might be something you would like to check into to help you make your big decisions.

As far as strollers go, I felt like that was the hardest decision! Like you I wanted an awesome walking/jogging stroller. I chose the Baby Jogger City Mini. It was very light, easy to fold, and had a great feel to run with. When I chose this stroller, I knew that my son would be about 6 months or older in it. I didn't look into a pram or bassinet attachment because I was going with the Graco infant car seat carrier and frame stroller. Infants usually stay in this seat for about 6 months. I know there were a lot of new strollers out there at the time and even more today, so I guess you could say I went old school. I have to say the frame was so easy and light, too!

One product I would advise against purchasing would be the traveling system. They consist of a regular stroller and infant car seat. These two products together are very heavy and space consuming.

This spring I will be looking into double strollers. I heard the 2010 City Mini's have attachments for car seats, prams, etc. I will let you know if I discover anything new.

Good Luck!

I did see that the 2010 City Mini's have all the attachments. Everyone that has one loves it. The city mini, the city select model and the Musty are what I am down to now. Thanks for the advice:)
