It seems the price has gone up now and it's out of stock. I think I'm winning he battle and I'll end up getting one also! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2221376 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 08:34:10 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2221376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: BBB lists it as excluded from their 20% coupons, and so does AlbeeBaby :bummed: so I ordered it at Right Start and used a 10% off any purchase and free shipping, so it was $160 before tax. It seems to be out of stock most places, and a coupon exclusion everywhere else!!</p> <p>It arrives on Wednesday - yay!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2221165 Sun, 28 Jun 2015 22:13:02 +0000 Boogs 2221165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsLonghorn: I want to hear how you like it! I'm trying to convince DH to sell off our umbrella and the one that matches our car seat so we can get the nano lol. Btw, where did you find the best deal? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220926 Sun, 28 Jun 2015 15:48:05 +0000 Astro Bee 2220926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kemma: We're travelling around the North Island only. LO is too young for all of the adventure tourism, but we've doing lots of other things that NZ is known for, including<br /> mud and thermal pools, volcanoes and vistas. Great so far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220912 Sun, 28 Jun 2015 15:30:04 +0000 Kemma 2220912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee: are you tripping around or just staying in one place? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220899 Sun, 28 Jun 2015 15:05:22 +0000 Astro Bee 2220899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kemma: Thanks! We are having a wonderful time. LO won't remember anything, of course, but we are doing lots of special things for him (really for us, haha!), and taking lots of pictures. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220675 Sun, 28 Jun 2015 05:28:41 +0000 Kemma 2220675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee: hope you have a great time in NZ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220611 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 22:20:17 +0000 Beehive 2220611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobear: I totally didn't realize there was a shoulder strap!! You have blown my mind. I'm excited to try it on our upcoming trip... I've just been carrying it by the handle when folded up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2220412 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 14:09:25 +0000 Astro Bee 2220412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Currently in New Zealand on our second trip with the Nano. It's been great. I travelled solo with LO to get here, as DH was already here for a week on a business trip prior to our vacation. I had no problems carrying it, LO in a carrier, plus mine and his carry-on bags. Plus when I deployed the stroller it was really easy to push one-handed. We love that we can attach any model infant car seat to it. We have a Chicco Keyfit 30 at home, but had to rent one here that met NZ standards. As we travel a lot, this is a big bonus. </p> <p>The wheels aren't as smooth on the cobblestones as my big stroller would be, but any umbrella stroller would be the same. I tried the Chicco Echo before buying the MBN and ended up returning it, because it was so clunky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2219903 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 14:02:50 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2219903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha you have all convinced me - the MB Nano is on its way to me!!! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2217740 Thu, 25 Jun 2015 00:19:41 +0000 Boogs 2217740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want the mountain buggy nano so badly! We have the Maclaren Globetrotter and it has been good to us, but an umbrella type stroller with a bar instead of two separate handles is what I miss. The Nano also looks like the storage is easier to assess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2217724 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 22:54:17 +0000 hellobear 2217724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i also love our MBN! we have a UB cruz for our every day stroller (which we love love love) but sometimes i don't feel like taking it down the stairs to the main street.. and find that the MBN does really well as an every day stroller also (except for the smaller under basket)..</p> <p>** i've traveled several times with the MBN and find the shoulder strap easy to use to transport. (i've had lots of experience walking long terminals with it packed up) and also actually many times just sit it on top of my roller carry on suitcase a lot and use the band it comes with to tie it secure to the roller... </p> <p>** you can carry it onboard .. but it technically doesn't comply with the carryon regulations (like some other similar but more expensive models).. i hear it's not a problem and i haven't come across any issues but i usually gate check it anyways because we rarely check in luggage and i don't want to carry the stroller onboard as one of my carry ons..<br /> ** love the recline.. wish it was a one hand adjust but i don't think they have those on umbrella strollers?<br /> ** like foodnerd81 mentioned the canopy is just OK (i am used to the uppababy canopies also and those are so hard to beat!) but its decent.</p> <p>if i had to do it all over again i would probably get it again. i really love the fold since i can carry it hands free which is so crucial in the airport or when you are by yourself and i think it drives very very well for an umbrella stroller! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2217715 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 22:06:36 +0000 Beehive 2217715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a fan of the Nano, and for us the unique fold has been amazing, because it enables the stroller to fit in an overhead bin - not normally a huge deal, but we've been on international flights where "gate checking" a stroller means you pick it up on the luggage carousel on the other side of passport control! It's a solid stroller - though it's light, it has the single handlebar and reclines very far for naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2217395 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 14:59:57 +0000 Banana330 2217395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just ordered the mtn buggy nano. I hope it's as good as the reviews state. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/umbrellatravel-stroller#post-2217288 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:27:11 +0000 Foodnerd81 2217288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the mb nano and I have to say I really love it. We use our strollers a lot, and I really like that you can attach an infant seat to it too. We gate checked t when we flew but could have easily carried it on. It lives in our trunk and takes up no space. It's definitely not as good on bumps and such as a full size stroller but for the size and weight I think it does a really good job. And I do love that I can steer it one handed because it has one handle bar instead of two separate handles. </p> <p>Cons: sun shade is just ok- not awful, but our other stroller is an UB Vista and we are used to that shade. The handlebar is not height adjustable- I am 5'7" and its ok for me but I think it would be mildly annoying if I was much taller. </p> <p>That's it really. I am really happy with it as a live in the car stroller. It's so easy to open and close that I'll take it out to make a 50 foot walk easier. </p>
