I need some help choosing a new stroller for my 2 year old! We currently had a 2003 Zooper Zstreet which is driving me crazy and I think I've finally convinced my Dh that I need to replace it. I'm also pg and due with baby #2 this October but am hoping to get away without buying a double and wearing the baby and putting DD in the stroller.

What I don't like about our Zooper Zstreet:
~ The fully upright position isn't very upright and DD is constantly trying to lean forward in it.
~ The seat is angled upwards so that her legs are higher then her bottom
~ The bumper bar makes it very hard to get DD in and out of the stroller, I always hook her feet trying to get her out!

What I'd like in a new stroller:
~ NO bumper bar or snack tray, an easy stroller for a toddler to climb in and out of by herself
~ Lightweight and easy to fold
~ A decent sun canopy
~ Adjustable straps so that I can also use this stroller with the baby if need be
~ Doesn't need to be car seat compatible
~ Doesn't need to be used with a newborn but would like a recline feature of some sort
~ Would like to spend around $100 and willing to purchase used to keep it affordable

Maclaren Volo :) (no recline? no problem...still a wonderfully comfortable seat for napping).

Uppa Baby G-Lite.

Maclaren Triumph (seat not as comfy as Volo, though)

Inglesina Swift.

My DS and I both love the Triumph. It is so easy to fold and so light!
