Combi Flare Lightweight Stroller in Edamame

I actually tried this out at a local retailer with my son. The rear wheels we have on our current stroller are worn down and it would cost me $50.00 to replace them on top of other issues I have with the thing. So I thought I'd start researching other strollers and see if I could find something I'd be happier with. This steered very nicely and folds into a square shape, the canopy seems to be ok and the back wheels locked easily. It is very lightweight and the attached carrying strap is a nice feature. I like that it is supposed to go up to 55 lbs and my son liked the cup holder. But this is a VERY narrow stroller, my son's shoulders barely fit in the seat, he's average size as in 50th percentile. I don't see how a 55 lb child could fit in here when a 28 lb 2 year-old barely does.

We have a big baby who won't be getting smaller anytime soon. This stroller goes up to 55lbs. which is bigger than other umbrella strollers. This is strictly an "umbrella" stroller. If you're expecting the conveniences of a larger stroller, this is not for you. If you want something compact that folds up in a flash, then great. The bonus with this little number is that it reclines, unlike traditional umbrellas. It also has a handy cup holder and a somewhat useful mesh basket below. Although, I didn't buy it for the storage capability. We're very pleased with it.

My original COMBI purchase was a universal stroller frame. I thought surely it couldn't get any better. It was time to upgrade my stroller and that's when I found the Flare stroller. WOW!! It's light, easily portable, and the colors are very pleasing. I get lots of compliments on my stroller as I'm trekking about in the city. It is great for on-the-go moms and their babies. The stroller weighs almost nothing, so I don't need any help getting up and down stairs or other non-stroller friendly areas. I highly recommend this stroller!
