We have the UB Gluxe and love it! (Also a suburbanite)

It's light weight, stands on its own when folded, has a decent basket underneath, a cupholder for me, a huge shade, reclines and comfortably fits my big-ish toddler (21 months).

DH loves it because of its smooth ride and one hand control is great too! It's our main stroller.

@Pirouette: So, we have a Quinny Zapp, it folds down into a small duffle bag, so we bring it on with us when we fly (most of the time). We went this route because we lost a lot of time waiting at the gate for the gate check items to be unloaded or we had to walk a long distance to the baggage claim, so the stroller waiting for us there wasn't so useful.

This stroller is a pain to fold and unfold though. It also doesn't recline, but my son is way past stroller napping...we literally use it two or three times a year now, when we're going somewhere where we don't have access to a car, like a day in the city, or to WDW.

We also have an UBV and just got the g-luxe last week. We love it to far!!!

@Pirouette: I have the one with one wheel I'm front but the 4 wheel one looks awesome! They also have a new "city mini zip" (I think that's what it's called) that looks amazing!

it really depends how much you'll use it. the city mini really does have the easiest fold and is easy to push. but they have a big footprint and will take up most of your trunk. in the suburbs you tend to drive everywhere, so you probably won't need your stroller a fraction as much as you do in the city. umbrella strollers will require you to push with two hands so they are more work, but they are lighter than the city mini and have a much smaller footprint.

i would also get the ubbababy over the maclaren because the uappbaby has a better fold and stands upright.

as far as napping in the stroller, both my kids napped in the stroller a lot, so recline was very important for me. especially when you have two kids, the younger kid ends up napping while you're out and about.

we also have a first years ignite at my parents' house which is a great inexpensive option (a little harder to fold but not hard by any means).

if it were me, i'd probably get an uppbaby gluxe.

We have a Maclaren Techno XT, which I loved when we were in NYC. It has become our travel stroller. Things I like: it fully reclines, it has a very large sunshade and it is easy to fold. Another Maclaren I have never used but would buy if I didn't already have the Techno XT is the Globetrotter, it's a lighter weight than mine, but still reclines.
