I currently have a Peg Pliko and would like to purchase a second stroller (for travel, etc). I have been doing extensive research on the net and message boards, and have narrowed it down to two choices: 1. Maclaren Mistral/Quest or 2. Combi Ultra Savvy 2001 model (because I've heard that the 2002 models are heavier).
However, here are my dilemmas with each: (a) If I get the Maclaren, I want the UK made Maclaren but that means the Quest is out of the picture. I haven't been able to test the Mistral because they are not available in nearby stores. I heard that the Mistral's wheels gave many people problems and the ride is very rickety. Any thoughts on quality, and the China made Quest would be very appreciated.
(b) I don't want the new 2002 ultra savvy because the weight would be too similar to the Pliko. However, I've also heard that the closing mechanism on the 2001 model was a problem for some people. Any thoughts on the quality and comparison between the two models and where I could get my hands on a UK made Mistral would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
