What strollers do you have? Do you love it? Do you hate it? I'd love to hear!

we have a city mini and a maclaren quest. love the city mini, don't really like the quest, but i don't think there is anything better out there as far as umbrella strollers that recline. the main reason i don't like the quest is because the brake sticks out in the back, and it's hard to get up our steps when charlie is sleeping in the stroller.

we have the britax b ready... originally we were going for the uppa baby vista but we didn't think we were going to use the bassinet all that much... so we went for the britax. loved it so far... it's a good size stroller, it is heavy but we live in queens so we drive everywhere... also, turns out that we really didn't need the bassinet- Eli just slept in his crib since day 1.

I have loved our Uppababy vista since day one. Little G slept in the bassinet in our room for the first month and his sister will likely do that too. The stroller is great for so many reasons, but really, the most important thing for me has been that their customer service can not be beat.

We have the Peg Perego Pliko P3 and Britax B-Nimble. I'm all for umbrella style anything and the Pliko P3 is a full-size stroller that is lighter than most full-size strollers yet can stand on its own (umbrella style) and there is an area for a toddler to stand behind the seat. Only downside is that, I believe, you can only use a Peg Perego car seat in there. I've seen ppl put other car seats on it unstrapped but I don't know how safe it is since the Peg Perego car seats clicks into the stroller, ensuring that it doesn't move or fall out of the stroller. It looks pretty comfy in there as well and the sun visor thing is pretty big. The Britax B-Nimble we got for travelling to Asia for 5 weeks but we initially got the Britax Blink and had break issues and long story short, Britax's great customer service sent me their new B-Nimble. They had break issues with the B-Nimble but have fixed that so should be safe to buy again. The B-Nimble also sits higher so your LO won't feel so low to the ground. Both strollers have shocks and maneuvers super easily and with one hand. It gets a little harder when your child gets older (b/c of weight) but still do-able!

Like Mrs. Bee, we have the BabyJogger City Mini, too. We love it! I was looking for a lightweight stroller that was easy to maneuver, and this was perfect. Plus, you can fold it and lift it into your car trunk with just one hand. Most of the other combo strollers I looked into were really heavy, so that's why I chose this one. We also like the huge shade cover and that our son can almost lay flat if he falls asleep while out.

we have the Uppababy Vista (LOVE) for our everyday, heavy duty stroller, and the Uppababy G-Luxe, which is an umbrella stroller, for quick jaunts and for the nanny to thorw in her car. Mrs Bee-FYI-the G-Luxe does recline, and it only weighs 11lbs, so if you arent in love with your Maclaren, definitely check it out.
Take into consideration your living situation. The UBV that we have is excellent for our situation where we do a lot of walking. We dont have to frequently load and unload it to the car, so for us its ideal. I have a friend who bought the Bugaboo Chameleon, but she lives in the country and never uses it as its cumbersome to load/unload and takes up a lot of room in her car. In hindsight, she'd have bought something different

We have the Stokke Xplory and the City Mini Baby Jogger. The Stokke is great for a lot of situations, namely eating out-- we can adjust the seat height and handlebars and have E right at the table. I love how adjustable everything is. The one con is that it's pretty cumbersome. We need to take it apart to put it into the car but once you figure it out, it's really just two parts. We have the City Mini for my mom because it just folds up with a pull and is easy to stow away and quick to open. We love both depending on the situation. If I were using public transportation more, I'd definitely use the City Mini more often.

@livsmama - i've wanted to change my quest for the g-luxe, but since charlie can just walk up the stairs, i haven't bothered. charlie vastly prefers the quest to the city mini now because it's easier for him to hop in and out of it.

@Reggie - I'm comparing the B-Ready and the B-Agile right now. What made you go with the B-Ready?

We have the BJ City Elite and the Micralite Toro. The City Elite is only used at our mountain home -- it's like an SUV of strollers. I love it, but it's big and super heavy. But it does handle dirt roads and bumpy terrain quite well. The Toro is one I'd never heard of, but kids.woot was having a deal, and so I jumped on it. I love it so far. Very light, folds with one hand (but i can't pick it up with one hand), folds to a standing upright position, has a full recline, etc. And S really likes it because he can sit so upright in it.

@Weagle--I have the Britax B-Agile and my friend has the B-Ready. Although I am jealous of her huge compartment underneath her stroller to fit shopping bags, the B-Ready's really wide and she gets 'stuck' a lot when out shopping. We live in the suburbs and I load/unload it from my car often. The B-agile is on the lighter side and super convenient to close and stick in the trunk.
