Chariot Cougar 2 questions

[mtnram009]

Looks like we are getting the Cougar 2. Here are a couple of questions for those who are experienced.
1. Did you also buy the hand brake attachment?
2. What about the infant sling and head support?
AMW will be 3-4 months by the time she rides in the stroller, do we still need the infant sling?
Man, it stinks that they make every little attachment extra...please just include the brake at least!
Thanks

Sorry, can't really help with the brake questions on the Cougar 2 because we have the CX2, which has the brakes included. However, we do have the baby supporter

It does help when he falls asleep but sometimes his head flops over.

I don't have an infant supporter, but I don't think a child could handle the "regular" bench seat, even at a walk, until 5-6 mo+, or until they are sitting almost unassisted It is a pretty straight bench seat.

If I got the jogging wheel, I would want the brake (it doesn't work w/ stroller wheels), particularly if you walk in hilly areas. I have considered getting the jogging wheel, just for that reason.
