Buyer's Remorse?!

[table4three]

So while I was pregnant, I bought a Peg Perego P3 and then bought Graco Snugride/Universal Car Seat Carrier, thinking this was the best plan after all the reading I did. I've been using the snugride/UCSC for a month now, and I'm realizing I REALLY like having the parent tray. I didn't think I would miss it on the P3 but now I regret that there isn't one.

Are there trays out there that can be attached to a stroller like the P3? I haven't been able to find one. It the Maclaren Universal Organizer a good option? Will it fit on the P3?

TIA.

Funny I used to HAVE to have the parent tray too, but now none of my strollers have one and it's no problem. I think it's because I hang my diaper bag over the handles now, which holds my keys, the kid's cups, and my water bottle.

I really like that my Mac TT has these two big pockets on it..holds everything.

I have had a couple strollers with trays and while I loved them, I don't miss not having them (I haven't had one for a few years). On a PP stroller you can easily hang a diaper bag from the hooks (meant for the PP diaper bags) by using carabiners and put a drink in there. I have also found I am more careful with things I shouldn't have left on the trays anyway (keys, change, phone, etc) since they would be in anyone's easy reach. Don't let that one thing make or break the stroller, kwim?

There are also a whole variety of add on cupholders and totes to use as well. There are the Click and go, the Valco, and the Babu Tray for cups/cupholders. For bags to hang and hold a cup the SkipHop Duo works great as does the JLChildress Stroller Tote and StrollCool.

I have the Peg Venezia and I missed not having a tray initially. I recently got a Skip Hop Dash and that has really made a difference. It attaches easily and I can put cups in the side pockets.

For strollers that can't take a BOB Console, the Stroller Cool is my favorite! I have one on each of the Quests and on my P3. It folds with the stroller and fits a drink larger than a small water bottle. The larger zipper pocket fits keys, cell phone, sippy cups. I'm hoping to attach one to my new Cameleon when it arrives!

How do you attach your Dash to the Venezia? I have trouble getting my Duo on right - it slides down the handlebar. I find it easier to attach to my P3 so any tips would help! I love my skip hop, so I'd love to keep using it with my new stroller.

TIA,

Where do you get this Stroller Cooler. I'm getting the P3. Do you think the cooler will fit it? I tried looking up the cooler on line but couldn't find it.

I don't know anything about this retailer, but I found the Strollercool:

BuyBuyBaby has the Stroller Cool and so does A Running Stroller, I use it on the P3 all the time. Here's the link. If u check under whats new, the Cup N Snack is nice also. I use that on several strollers.

Hope that helps. Mary

Back when I was using my Peg Pliko, I used the JLC Strolllcool and loved it. I've never been one to really yearn for a parent or child tray though. Maybe just because I never used a stroller with one, so it didn't become somthing I am used to.

I am about to receive a gently used Emmaljunga (I am very excited about it as I have become obsessed with Emmas LOL). Anyway, I really like the Cup and Snack item- that looks very handy. But I'm also getting a Fleurville Sling tote, which attaches to the stroller, so I am not sure if I will actually need the Cup and Snack . . . but maybe for Liam to use up front?
