I deserve a new stroller. Ing. Swift or Mia Moda (facile or spirito)

[kk]

I don't want to spend more than $100 on an umbrella stroller suitable from birth. Mac's are out- either by failure to recline or cost.

I need a good recline, light weight and decent fold. I am intrigued by the Mia Moda, but it looks like the facile has a better recline than the spirito. Spirito's are $60 on albeebaby.

I tried to use my giant Peg Milano today and about threw it across the street (although the flat recline and "bassinet-ness" is nice).

I have:

BJCSdouble
Quinny Zapp
Joovy ultralight on order

thanks so much.

The Swift is no longer made and is not suitable from birth. It has only a partial recline, definitely NOT enough for a newborn.

Re: Swift discontinued- I thought so too, but check this out-- claims to be 2008 Swift (same thing at Target)

Yeah, I was just coming back to edit my post.

Hmmmm, I was positive that I had the last model year of the Swift (2004?). Maybe they've brought it back?

The Swift I had (and sold b/c it nearly amputated my finger one day) did not have a recline suitable for a newborn. Not even close. More like a 9m child or so.

Something is fishy, though, b/c the Swift isn't listed on the Inglesina website.

I'd say call them, except that they have horrible CS.

hm, i've never heard of the swift getting discontinued? strollerqueen always reviews it in her roll-outs.

None of those are suitable for little babies. The one you want is the Esprit Sun Speed. Full recline, $99. http://www.albeebaby.com/esprit-sun-speed-stroller-tangerine-orange.html

Oh, and the Inglesina Urbe' has been discontinued.

thanks everyone. Strollerqueen- thanks for pointing me in the right direction. How did you know I have a weakness for orange strollers? Now I'll have an orange Quinny, Joovy and Esprit.
