That's a huge savings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buying-stroller-floor-modelwhat-should-i-look-out-for#post-1428983 Mon, 17 Feb 2014 12:22:32 +0000 septca 1428983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great find! As long as everything open/closes/folds/rolls smoothly and there are no tears or runs in the fabric, I say go for it! Finding a good deal on a stroller is wonderful as they hold up really well. We got a 6-yo Maclaran for free from a neighbor that looked to be in terrible shape, but it folded and strolled well. After a spray down with a hose and a trip through the washing machine for all the fabric parts, it looks brand new. It makes me really wish I had bought my normal stroller used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/buying-stroller-floor-modelwhat-should-i-look-out-for#post-1428931 Mon, 17 Feb 2014 12:03:07 +0000 cheert16 1428931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nice savings!

(we are not in a hurry to get it) OR we could buy the floor model with an additional 15% off. So I am leaning toward buying the floor model - it looks in great shape but want to double check if there is anything else I should look into.</p> <p>So far the fabric/canvas, recline, folding open and closed, front wheel locks, rear brakes, canopy movement all look ok. Am i missing anything?</p> <p>Anyone buy a floor model stroller? What did you check for? </p>
