Peg Perego - Selfie Plus

I wish the Joolz Aer had magnetic buckles and a non-zipper reline. Then it would be the perfect true one-hand fold stroller. There are so many videos online that show how easy it is to unfold all these travel strollers, but most of them actually get stuck when unfolding and you need to fling hard. I wouldn't even consider the Uppababy Minu V3, Ergobaby Metro 3 truly one-handed. I actually was surprised that some cheaper strollers were actually real one-hand fold and unfold. The Peg Perego Selfie and Guzzie and Guss O2 both felt like butter. Unfortunately their canopies were too small or too close to the face.

Currently have 3: * peg perego selfie. We bought this. We like it, except the basket underneath is annoying and hard to get things in and out of, but otherwise this stroller is perfect. Even in snow despite just having dinky compact wheels. * Stokke xplory. Given to us. Hate it, too big, too hard to disassemble. it sits on our porch and collects dusts because it's too difficult to use for anything beyond walking around the neighborhood * mountain buggy nano. Given to us. Meh. Dont love it, but also don't hate it. Too hard to fold (needs 2 hands), doesn't steer as smoothly as the other strollers, but reasonably sized so we have it in my husbands car ad use it occasionally.

Peg perego selfie? It lays flat, and the foot rest folds up to also be flat. The maximum incline is like a 45 degree angle though. Which for a baby sounds like what you want, but for a toddler mine likes to sit a lot more forward. The mechanism to change the angle is a drawstring/slide thing so you can have it anywhere between flat and 45 degrees.

Peg perego selfie. We went and tried out strollers in store, and this one was the best balance of sturdy yet small and foldable.

Where will you stow your stroller with the truck? Throw it in the bed and hope it's not raining? Also you will hate constantly having to lift things up. IMO a smaller car with kids seems counterintuitive, but it's just so much easier to get in and out of.

Diaper bag? Doesn't matter. Get one that's fabric instead of pleather because it'll be washable. I have a skip hop one and it's fine. car seat/car: We thought we'd need a big family car for a baby, so we got a porsche cayenne. It's not practical though. It's too high up, hoisting carseats and baby up all the time isn't fun. It's wide so all parking spaces seem too small and it's often hard to open the door all the way without touching the neighboring car. So IMO you want a sedan or station wagon, not a truck, not an SUV. I "downgraded" to a subaru legacy and even though it's not as "nice" as a porsche, it's more practical and comfortable. Stroller: You want something that folds and stows as easily as possible. We got 2 strollers, assuming the big heavy tank of a stroller would be our main (stokke), and then an auxiliary lightweight foldable travel stroller to have in the trunk of the car (peg perego selfie). And well..... the lightweight one gets used so much more. The big one is such a hassle to fold, transport, and assemble so it only ever gets used if we go for a walk around the neighborhood. But the travel one gets used daily, in and out of the trunk of the car no problem.

We started out that way. A regular stroller (stokke) and a travel/car stroller (peg perego selfie), but as it turned out the regular one is too heavy and impractical to use for anything. Even just getting in and out of the house is a chore. So we only ever use the travel one.

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.

Peg Perego- made in Italy, not China, and had the best folding. They’re big in Europe and used to be sold under the mamas and papas name but split a few years ago which is why it’s not as known in the UK. The new bababing looks good too as the bassinet folds flat.
