I have a valco runabout with a toddler seat and to be honest I think had both girls in it about 5 times and useda stroller and sling most of the time or the sling and a trolley at the shops. There is 2 years between my girls. My 32 month old would not sit in a stroller anymore. If I walk. around the neighbor hood my dd takes her bike. Good luck if you plan on doing a lit if walking and think your ds would sit in a toddler seat it might be worth it.
