Peg Perego - Duette Piroet

Am not in Montreal but I am in Canada and I have the Peg Perego Duet with car seats which click right in; the frame comes with seats for when they are older as well. As you might imagine any double stroller is going to be quite heavy compared to a single but I love this one because of how easily it folds up and how easily the car seats click in and out. Everyone comments on the ease of the system. However I only have one flight of stairs to navigate and I can leave the frame in the car, which I do. I would consider dining that if you can, and bringing down one baby at a time in their car seats (if you can, presuming you are travelling solo). Also I have snow here and actually the stroller did pretty well in it. I did get (after a Christmas list request) some little skis which go on the front wheels in heavier snow and help clear the way to make it easier to navigate. They’re pretty neat! It sounds like a lot but I find my boys absolutely love being outdoors in the stroller on walks ever since they were super wee, and I find spending on the stroller to be worth it.

We’ve finished up with the baby phase for 3 kids .. to answer your specific questions: - travel system vs separate stuff? Travel system. Best middle-of-the-pack is Peg Perego. They hold their value well for resale and used ones are a good purchase. They’re also more compact than the American brands, sturdier than most, and not as pricey as the Euro-look stuff (Uppa, etc.) - not to buy — all the stuff that’s baby-purpose-specific .. baby blenders (use a normal blender), baby bottle warmers (use a pot with water) .. we bought a lot of it, used it a couple of times, and never touched it again in favour of the adult version. Also, muslin blankets, they’re not for our climate. - buy asap — baby Tylenol, reusable syringe, baby Advil, suppository Tylenol, baby thermometer, baby ear camera ($20 on Amazon), Penaten, baby shampoo .. the medical stuff occupies you for the first year as they go through colds and rashes (and more intense things like RSV and HFM) - helpful purchases - baby blankets/quilts appropriate for their size, those zip up baby pouch blanket things, Jolly Jumper, pack and play with an additional foam mattress. - try a few different teething toys once they get bigger .. WubbaNub was the one that stuck with all 3 of ours. People swear by Sophie the Giraffe. Etc.

Are you considering more than one kid? We initially had a hand me down peg perego system that we loved but it got damaged on a flight and we got reimbursed its original price. We chose the cybex over the uppababy as our replacement because both seats can hold up to 50lbs

Seconding that this is the best answer. It really depends on where you live (city vs suburbs). I live in a European capital city with great public transport and terrible driving conditions. We walk a lot everyday, so my expensive Peg Perego travel system has been incredibly useful and is able to stand up to whatever is thrown at it, whether it be hard cobblestones or bumpy countryside. The attachable bassinet was great when my baby was a newborn, and now the stroller is one of his favorite ways to spend a couple hours outside. Plus, we do need to drive sometimes, so the car seat has also been handy. But if I lived in the suburbs, I probably wouldn't have bought quite an expensive travel system, or I may have splurged on the car seat instead.

I had the evenflo travel system and didn’t like it, bought the peg Perego travel system and love it. But baby definitely travelled better in the evenflo and hates the upgrade.

Velika kolesa, stabilnost (gor/dol po pločniku), pralnost, kako hitro se zloži in na kako veliko, če gre v prtljažnik malega avta in kaj vse je zraven (lupinica, košara, športni del, torba,...) Imeli smo PegPerego, super zadovoljni. Imeli smo ga za 2 otroka. Po prvem smo ga dali na sevis v Mengeš da ga pogledajo in pripravijo za drugega.

We also have a Peg Perego and love it. Being manufactured in Europe was a big selling point for me

Peg Perego za price/performance... uporabljen pri prvem otroku, nato na žalost posojen in ne uporabljen pri ta drugem. Sedajšni (no ni več v uporabi) je od Cybex pa je OK in je še vedno normalno uporaben, ampak glede zlaganja in sestavljanja je bil Peg Perego bolj praktičen tudi napram vozičkov ki so jih znanci uporabljali.

Not really. I had a peg perego stroller with my daughter and we rarely used it. My son is a decade younger so I obviously didn’t have that stroller. For him I bought a graco jogging stroller and it’s been amazing. We use it everyday on sand, ice and everything in between. I walk 5-10km a day with it and have nothing but great things to say!

I bought an expensive Peg Perego stroller because "the baby will use it till she's 3-4, so it's worth it". Nope. As soon as she could comfortably walk, around 18 months, she refused to sit in it. It was a great stroller and I had no issues with it, but the price and timeline we used it for was so not worth it!
