Which I think is nice because it doesn't take up too much room in my car. Plus it's one less thing in the garage or house. We have a jogging stroller that we like because it is light weight and moves easy. We use it for walks to the park, zoo trips and traveling at the airport. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106265 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:25:20 +0000 tysonja 2106265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>city mini used, or one of the uppababy umbrella strollers used looks great too! or the good old maclaren ones? :)</p> <p>I think if you are willing to go used you can get something great for under 150! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106256 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:21:53 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2106256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: omg yeah it's super super easy to fold and getting it in the back of the car would be no problem!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106246 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:17:16 +0000 Bubbles 2106246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: I have a City mini and you will deffo be able to get it in and out of a car boot, no sweat -and folding is the easiest thing ever. I carry it up and down 4 flights of stairs daily (sweat IS involved here though :happy: ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106229 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:11:04 +0000 jhd 2106229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: I probably wouldn't say that the city mini was light if I had to carry it up stairs or something with LO and all his stuff but we live in the suburbs so I'm usually only lifting it in &amp; out of the car. We have had that stroller from the beginning and it's one thing I have never regretted one bit. My sis got a graco stroller as part of a travel system and it is so heavy and harder to maneuver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106221 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:06:04 +0000 Mae 2106221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hotchildinthecity: I shouldn't need to do any crazy maneuvers with it... I just mean light enough that I won't be sweating and swearing trying to fold it and lift it into the back of my car. Thoughts? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106218 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 15:04:38 +0000 bunnylove08 2106218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: we have a gluxe and it doesnt really handle as well on grass. Its a little harder to push not a smooth push. But a good overall workout </p> <p>handles terrible in snow and sand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106193 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 14:55:31 +0000 Foodnerd81 2106193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like a sturdy umbrella stroller would work for you- like the uppababy glite, which should be right around that price point ($160 I think). I would think a cheapo $10 umbrella stroller couldn't handle the grass and curbs. The glite also has a great sunshade. </p> <p>We have a mountain buggy nano that I really love and it would work for you, but it's $200 unless you get really lucky and get the floor model from BBB like we did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106178 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 14:50:34 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2106178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to say city mini, but I would not say it is light! I had to get a cheapo umbrella stroller because I can't get it and LO up the subway stairs. But it rolls over any terrain. We've had some bad snow and the city mini does a great job! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106173 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 14:44:47 +0000 bunnylove08 2106173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to say City Mini or a phil and ted. You need something with big wheels and I dont think an umbrella stroller will be able to go over rough terrain </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106169 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 14:42:26 +0000 jhd 2106169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love our City Mini. Not sure if you can find a new one for under $150, but I think we got ours for around $170 from Amazon on sale. I can fold it one-handed and it's very light. I love the huge canopy to keep sun off LO too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-stroller#post-2106122 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 14:24:34 +0000 Mae 2106122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for my 10 month old for the summer. We probably won't use it a lot (walks when it is too hot to wear, trips to the zoo when she will want to be in/out a lot.... but definitely not daily use). </p> <p>Wants:<br /> - Less than $150<br /> - Light and folds easily (although it doesn't have to be terribly small because I have an suv, not car with trunk)<br /> - Somewhat rugged because our neighborhood is stupid and the sidewalks don't cross streets (so at every cross street we have to go over grass and curb). I feel like a stroller with 4 tiny wheels won't be able to handle that. </p> <p>Does what I want exist? </p>
