I was very excited to find a parent facing stroller in this price range. It is beautiful in person. The quality of the fabric and it handleS like a dream. However when I put my 11 month old son that is 30" in height and weighs 23 lbs, his little head was hitting the top of the stroller frame! I was so disapointed =( I truly loved evertyhing else of the stroller. DUe to this I was unable to keep it. It was just too small. The total length of the seat fully reclined is 29".

I recently bought this to replace a Chicco Cortina which I'd never really liked but was decent and capable so I felt stuck with it. But I'd grown increasingly hung up lately on the notion of a rear-facing stroller. Most people seem to think of it as a feature for smaller babies, but I really wanted it for my 2.25 year old who is talking a ton these days.

So after falling in love with a bugaboo, I had a reality check and came to terms with the fact that there was no way I was spending that much on a stroller. So I looked for the next best thing with a similar style. I came up with this. You can switch the seat rear or forward facing. The seat itself can transform into a little bassinet if needed. Amazing shade coverage. Massive storage underneath and easily accessible. The seat reclined easily, adjustable handle, cup holder for me, removable snack tray,handles great,adjustable foot rest... I could go on. I love this stroller, however it is HUGE. Bulky when folded. But that's my only complaint. I can still fit it in the trunk of my civic, but I have to remove the snack tray.
