I have a Bee+ with a black canopy that I recently purchased on CL. It was the only color available and I am fine with black. I like that it's gender neutral, looks sleek and not too flashy, and it creates a dark barrier from the sun when DD is napping. But lately, I've been lusting after the other fun colors! Especially red and blue. Is black too boring and basic? Should I get a different color or stick with what I have? Help me decide!

As someone who just asked about navy vs. black for the Avio, I got talked out of black and think a color is more fun (but can still be classy).

I'm no help at all, as I'm going to suggest Dark Khaki. I LOVE this color on the Bee+ and wish the Avio came in at least one earth tone. I'm a huge fan of earth tones.

That probably just confuses you more, but there you have it!

I would go for the khaki or red. Helps your stroller to stand out in the crowd.
Try to get a liner for the stroller seat to add color and protect your seat from getting dirty. Buy Buy B is having clearance on the Tangerine /blue/ pink canopy or Bed bath beyond online . got the info from a fellow swapper.

I have a blue canopy and I have to say, the blue is Gorgeous! It is so much prettier in person! :)

Thanks for the heads up on the clearance sale. I think I'd have to pay for shipping, but it would still be less than buying full price. I'm off to see what colors they have on sale.

Does BBB still have that pale green? I love that one though maybe it gets dirty easily?

I have the blue and its great but I voted for other. I would get the deep purple or tangerine off clearance. Personally i am waiting for maine baby treats to open back up so I can get a custom.

Is the deep purple on clearance too? I didn't see it on the website. I really like that color.

ETA: I like the Ocean color on the cam too...

Well, I have red, off-white, purple, and blue lined with blue zoo from mainebaby treats. Right now I am using the blue one but I think the purple is my fave. I haven't seen it on sale anywhere. I haven't used the off-white yet. Red is surprisingly my least favorite. I should probably pare it down and get rid of one, but...

I was acually deciding between lining with blue zoo or sock monkeys - I love the sock monkeys, but ended up with blue zoo and then found a matching liner on swap - super cute :)

I wish they would come out with a kelly green. I'd be all over that.

So bottom line, I go deep purple for my choice.

That would be perfect for St paddy's day. A kelly green with a coordinating tartan print on the inside would be awesome. Maybe that should be your next mainebabytreat selection. :wink2: I would put a ND monogram print on the inside. Oh my gosh if I can find some I think that will have to be what I order next. Even my husband would be excited about that one. I have to go search and see if I can find a fabric print I like.

Do you have an irl picture of the purple? All I can find online are stock photos and I'd love to see it. :)

I'd say purple. Too used to standard colors, when I see a rare occasional purple or a pale pink, they really stand out and so pretty too! I have the blue and it's a gorgeous color, very bright, so also recommend.

I love the purple canopy (I know I said that). I have 2. What I'm going to do with the second, I have no idea (it was a mistake).
