Mia Moda Cielo

posted 15th Mar '07
Hi!
I was wondering if anyone has used this stroller and what you can tell us about it.
I was particularly wondering about the sides. If a baby is younger, does that make the stroller completely unsuitable? Will the baby lean off the sides?

Is there a rain cover? How does it ride?
It looks like it doesnt have much of a recline, what is your experience?
How easy is it to fold?

I am looking for a lightweight that would act as my second stroller that I can take anywhere, but if this stroller is suited more for heavy air travel its not for me. Any advice/review would be appreciated!!

Hi there!
I have the Cielo, and a 16 month old. I got it when he was about 13 months, so he was already pretty sturdy. I don't know if I'd use it for a tiny baby.

Pros-
Really cool fabric/style. I have the Chocolate, and love the way it looks.
Folds very small, I keep it in the back of my car, and never have to worry that there won't be room for groceries/etc.
One-handed steering is great, very easy to maneuver in small spaces.
The bag comes off - so you don't have to empty it to fold.

Cons -
Took me about 6-7 tries to really master the fold, but now that I know how to do it, it's really not that hard at all.
The recline is a bit skimpy, but I don't use it for long-haul strolling, it's my version of an umbrealla stroller, for quick trips to the store, and travel. I have a larger stroller that I use if I think DS needs to nap while we're out.
No rain cover that I'm aware of, but someone else might know about that.
The bag is a bit small, and there's no cup holder - I've got around that though by hanging my bags on the handle - which is perfectly suited to do that...and steering with one hand while I hold my coffee!

I'd def. reccomend it over most of the other umbrella style strollers out there - there are shoulder straps that will keep LO strapped in.

Thank you. I actually went and saw it in the store. It steers really well but there is basically no recline and there is no side support.
I want a stroller for quick trips to the store and public transport, not just travel so this is not for me! But it is super cute!
