Hi, everyone. Awhile ago, I posted on these boards asking about the Dreamer Design Manhattan Deluxe. Anyway, I bought that stroller and I absolutely LOVE it. It's really nice. And it helps that it came in my favorite color. ;-)
If anyone is looking for an AT stroller that accommodates a tall child, check this one out. I really like it, and I'm glad I got it.
I bought it from www.arunningstroller.com. They were very helpful. I paid $285.99 there, free shipping. Most of the other stores are selling it for around $359 plus shipping.
Anyway, a mom on one of my other message boards was asking for rec's for these kind of strollers and I was raving about it there. So, I thought I'd post over here, too, in case anyone had questions or wanted a review of it.
This is what I have (in Envy Green - the coloring is a bit off on their web photo; here it looks olive and pink (at least on my screen); IRL it is lime green and khaki and GORGEOUS! lol): http://www.dreamerdesign.net/images/products/man_dlx.jpg

I love all the storage pockets, the way you can unvelcro the basket to put things in and get them out but it's not open so things fall out when walking, the smooth ride, the adjustable handle bar, the swivel/fixed front wheel (that you control on the handlebar, so you don't have to crouch down to switch it!), the color, the comfiness of it, everything really. DD loves it also. We've used it a ton already and have only had it for a few months.
So, that's my review. If anyone has specific questions, I'd be happy to answer them. I think the best thing about the Dreamer Design Manhattan Deluxe is that it can accommodate TALL kids! My daughter's head hits the canopy on most strollers, but she's got room in this one. It's really nice for her.
