    I bought my new 1 yest, it ended up being a toss up between valco ion or bruin Monaco. Went with the bruin cos it was Heaps cheaper and I really disliked the valco handle. Will be trying it out today

    I have the Valco Rebel Q & I love it. It fits through a normal check-out, has solid wheels & reclined flat enough for newborns. It can fold as 1 or in 2 pieces. The seat is also reversible.

    Does anyone know much about the Steelcraft Cruiser Stroller & Travel System.... can you still get them new? or only on Ebay?

    hi angelaartsstudent

    I haven't tried any of the other ones mentioned but I have a baby jogger city mini and love it!!! So easy to get around all the tight shopping isles and lightweight and easy to fold, it reclines well and has a good basket, but doesn't sit bolt upright and I'm not sure how easily it would fit an older child in. I got ours when I was pg with DD2 because it was so much easier to lift than my phil and ted 2 seater and mainly use it for shopping and walking on footpaths. We also had trouble fitting some of the umbrella strollers in our boot and found this one took up barely any room once folded. I don't hit the back of my city mini and am about 170cm tall, but I guess you could test it out in the shop?

    Goodluck deciding though. I hate when you buy something and it doesn't work out the way you want.

    Hmm ja that is my worry - about fitting an older/larger child.

    P is the size of the average 3 year old, so I am expecting to have another tall kid. :-)

    I have a graco which is also great except for the size and weight. But my sister has a maclaren and its brilliant - really light weight, small, easy to fold - I would recommend you check out one of their range.
