    Unless you are going to use it or are really tall I would go el cheapo from Big W. We have one of those for walking the dog and it does just fine. No good for jogging or anything major - especially where the child is likely to fall asleep (although zoo trips etc it is fine) but I am glad I just got one of those. I think it is worth every penny.

    my dad has a cheap stroller that he keeps in the back of his car for days where he minds ds1 and wants to go to the shopping centre and it's great! i think it cost him about $30 from Big W.

    Completely up to you . I personally LOVE Maclaren strollers (once you've tried one you can't go back LOL). They are so easy to use and maneuver around, definitely the best I've ever used (I have a Quest).

    I had a BigW cheapie, it served its purpose well.

    My sister had a Steelcraft stroller which reclined back, I can't remember the model name but it was great and folded up quite small too.

    I have a Steelcraft Pheonix stroller and love it for trips to the shops. It reclines back too so its great for little bubs and toddlers who still have a nap. Its light and folds up easily too.They retail for about $175 I think.

    i love my mclaren vogue and luckely found a great deal and only paid $277. I personally would go for a better one than a cheap $30 one as when i was looking so many u can feel hard metal bars with your hand, even when i was looking at $100 in target.

    I have a cheap stroller from Target or Big W that mum gave me as a spare to keep in our other car. We've used it on our nephews and it definitely does the job. We have a Baby Jogger as our 'good' pram.
