Do you think the emotion can handle a little cobblestone? My dd loves the cybex topaz so she would be mad at me if I got rid of it but I gotta say the one bar handle and adjustable footrest have me eyeing the new emotion.

I don't actually love any of the colors unfortunately. Black, beige and brown are definitely out. I prefer jewel tone purples so that's not my favorite either. The red is okay but since red is available on so many cheap strollers I usually equate it with cheap. Unfortunate since I generally love red. The green looks cheap to me too. Wish I could see them in person since I am sure they look totally different. I guess I'll put the blue one on my registry. My registry is basically a wish list of strollers I am lusting. I have a b-dual, MB duet and now a babyhome emotion.

I need to start a stroller wish list too, my 'before a third' baby registery.

I think the blue looks like a very pretty shade. Plus nice with the frame. I have the opposite problem, I like all of the colors, but the purple is my fav, although darker is always better for stroller colors.

I have also found this thread super helpful although I bought a new lightweight weeks ago and am fairly happy with it, found a super deal on a Mac Quest. The Emotion is just way prettier and unique.

Doesn't the Emotion not have a peekaboo window in the canopy? No peekaboo window is a deal breaker for me!

It has a peekaboo window but it seems too far forward to be useful to me. Pretty sure strollerqueen had a picture of it in her review. Has a magnetic closure too which is a nice detail.

That's so weird. It's more like a sun roof than a peekaboo window. I'm pretty sure the original European version didn't have a window so I guess whoever added one for the US market didn't really get the concept.

Sun roof is the perfect description.
