We purchased this stroller shortly before our daughter's 1st birthday. In the 6 months since we have received it, here are the problems we have encountered:
1. The stroller unexpectedly closes suddenly, with my child still sitting it. This has happened while crossing the street, but mostly happens when going up onto curbs.
2. The back right wheel has popped off. We can get it back on but it is obviously loose and sometimes rolls off and away.
3. The two little plastic...button type things that go in the handles are not very secure. We're missing one.
4. One of the hinges that help it open is already cracked. My husband and I don't toss this thing around. We put our daughter in it and go for walks. This amount of wear seems ridiculous for the amount of time we've had it.
In addition, if your kid likes to sit up all the way, the seat does not go forward that far. My daughter gets out of the shoulder straps very easily and the fact that the...Read more

Before I bought this stroller, I scoured the internet for umbrella strollers. I really didn't want to spend $100+ on an umbrella stroller so this price was great. My husband and I are both tall, and this stroller is perfect. Neither of us has to hunch over, and my husband is 6'1" I like that it reclines too which has come in handy when my son falls asleep on outings. We did buy a bigger sun shade since we are in TX. However, the sun shades on all umbrella strollers are too small for the south. Anyway, my son loves this stroller, he seems very comfortable in it, it's sturdy, and it does offer a smooth ride.

I bought this for my newborn and it worked great for awhile. There was a little piece that was broken on the stroller when we got it, but it didn't seem to affect the use. The stroller worked well enough, but I noticed the outer back wheel sort of wobbled. We got the stroller last year right around halloween and the back wheel broke while trick-or-treating this year. That is quite unfortunate when you are not very close to your car. My son is not heavy. He is now 13 months and weighs almost 22 lbs. My favorite part about the stroller was the little extension for the legs so that his little feet didn't dangle. Not many strollers have that feature so, I will miss that. I won't be ordering a Mia Moda again.
