This review is from: Peg-Perego Pliko Mini Stroller, Fire (Baby Product)
We live in downtown NYC with a 17 month old and have used a P&T Sport and Ergo to get around since his birth. Now that our little one is a bit older, we've been wanting to take advantage of all the museums and sights around the city, but the P&T is too heavy to fold, unfold, and carry onto subways and buses and carrying him in the Ergo can get heavy and hot (in the summer).
A lightweight umbrella stroller was the logical next step. But it had to be truly lightweight (other than carrying my child, I don't work out!), with recline, and most importantly, easy to fold and unfold with one hand. This was pivotal for me since I have an active child and would not trust that he would patiently stand next to me while I fumbled with two hands to fold a stroller. So, the Pliko Mini had all that I looked for. Maclarens are lightweight and reclines, but you have to bend all the way down to the floor to actually 'clip' the stroller shut. The Pliko Mini shuts like the Pliko Si~ by...Read more

Let me start with this is the umbrella stroller with the biggest canopy I've ever seen, even if the sun is directly on his face I just incline to the second position and it's gone. It is very light and easy to fold (really ONE hand). The green is really cute and not as bright as it looked on the picture. I have very long legs and the handles are high enough that I don't kick the back of the stroller (as I read on one of the reviews and was a little worried about it). Now the reason for my 4 stars: There is no place for parents to put your cellphone or keys, a little pocket on the back of the canopy would have been doable and great, like I've seen in other umbrella strollers. I actually don't think there's a stroller out there that has it all, the Maclaren has the pocket but the canopy is a lot smaller than the Pliko Mini, so you just have to figure out what exactly you are looking for and what are you whiling to give it away. I live where it's really hot and sunny, so my main thing...Read more

This review is from: Peg-Perego Pliko Mini Stroller, Neon (Baby Product)
We have a fabulous full size stroller at home, but we decided we needed a light weight travel stroller that was good for our three year old and good for summer vacations. We have an inexpensive umbrella stroller, and they are great for the trunk, but they do leave quite a bit to be desired especially for traveling.
We tried the Uppa Baby G-Luxe, and ended up sending that back. I posted a review on that as well. We looked at the Maclarens at the store, but we were most impressed with the Pliko Mini, so we ordered it last week. The fabric seems very durable with lots of fun color options. I love the ease of the closing and opening; it's super slick. We have a big three year old, so it's a nice spacious seat and it accomodates his long legs nicely. The recline is great and functions like a beach chair with three reclining postitions. Great sun canopy with a window to peek at him. My husband thought it was a little shakey at first after I put it together, but the wheels have...Read more
