re: Stroller Addicts Anonymous

Hey ladies i saw this stroller today on Amazon and was wondering what your thought on it was. Do you think that the price is good for this stroller? And has anyone had or seen it in real life? Thanks in advance.

I've never heard of it...and wouldn't buy it. Immediate impression, looks cheap. These import 3 in 1's are usually crap. It strongly resembles the Britax Vigour, which was awful [and quickly discontinued]! $449 can get you something way better...but, it's up to you.

That is my impression also, that's why i asked if anyone had it or has seen it. I'm iffy about buying things online without seeing them in real life or even trying them.

oh for $449 u can get so much better...u might bevable to find a Bee for that price...u just need to look hard

We went to a birthday party at a local wildlife preserve and after the party walked around the trails...the whole time he kept saying, "You should've brought the BOB."...oh you mean the stroller he made me sell when we got the Cameleon!? He was totally joking, but I could've killed him...LOL

u aold the BOB? noooo!

Quoting s.daud:" u aold the BOB? noooo!"

Oh ya. When Fred originally bought it, it was because I had sold my Frog. I only used it for trails, beach...etc and the Bugaboo suspension is amazing, so it tackles all of that no prob! I don't actually job, so it's kind of a waste from that stand point. Plus, the Cameleon offers a ton of other features. I just preferred that the BOB was 1pc, easy to fold and it was one of our cheaper strollers, so I didn't give a crap what I rolled it through! Don't get me wrong, it's an AWESOME stroller...just never really suit our lifestyle.

Chloe LOVES the snack tray...

One more question ladies...Has anyone had a Mutsy 4 Rider? Wasn't too sure of the look but saw one other day and was thought it looked better IRL. Just wondering if anyone had any actual experiences with it. Thanks!!

The Helix doesn't look so huge anymore...and of course I love the purple!

We test drove them with #3 and strongly considered them. If someone gave me a Mutsy 4Rider, I would gladly use it. But, if I was paying for a stroller...I'd rather spend the money on a Bugaboo. I love Mutsy's line of accessories...they have some good ones!

Thank you so much for your help. I found the 4 rider light on sale for $420 and ordered it (knowing that I can return it if necessary). Do you know what the differences are between the 4 rider and the light? Also what about the canopy? Is it pretty generous? And lastly, do you think $420 is a good price? There are so many things that I really liked about the stroller but am a bit nervous because I wasn't able to test it out in person before buying. Thanks again for all of your guidance

Other than being 4lbs lighter, I think the only difference is the wheels. The Light has EVA foam tires and the regular wheels are air filled. The canopy is nice/decent. $420 is good for new, did it include the bassinet? I will say, that if you have ever test driven a Bugaboo...you'll notice the Mutsy has a wider, more rigid frame. It's still incredibly smooth and agile though!!!

It did not include the bassinet but is new. I like a lot of the features of the Bugaboo but the weight limit (37.5 from what I see) and price concern me a bit. My oldest is in the 99% for both height and weight and I'm afraid this little guy will be as big and outgrow the stroller before I'm ready. Decisions, decisions..... 

so finally got to come online...i had another boy on the 7th...he was born at 35 weeks via emergency c section due to pain in my previous scar. He was born 4 pounds 14.6 oz, and 18.3 inches long...yeah, small...lol...hes doing well...
