Product Review.

Background: I had been wanting a new stroller for quite some time, but I could not justify spending the money when my old one was still working just fine. Even though it was outdated, and had a few stains it was the perfect size did the job. Then came my golden opportunity. I let my sister borrow my stroller when she went on a vacation to Texas. Well, she arrived at the airport but the stroller did not(neither did her car seat). Bad for her at the time. Good for me. So after some phone calls I was able to get a new stroller(and she a new car seat) that they would pay for! Yeah!

Selection: Next thing you know we are at the store searching for our new items. My main concern was size. I didn't want big bulky wheels and I wanted it to fold easy. There was not the best selection in my category. After comparing all the bells and whistles and plenty of walks around the store I chose the Peg Pergo Aria. A huge step up(price wise) from my Evenflo. It was the right size, it was lightweight, had one hand folding capabilities and the colors are super cute.


The cold hard facts: I want my Evenflo back. Basically you are paying for the name. Within the first month the cup holder fell off. They do not steer easy, especially with one hand(which is a must if you have more than one child). The buckle is just weird. There are straps that go over the kids shoulder and the hook to keep the straps up(and the kids safe) is always falling out. And as it turns out they fold down fairly easy with one had but do not open easily with one hand. But they still look cute.....

Final thoughts: I want a new stroller. I'm glad the airline payed for it.

(my sister purchased the same stroller in a different color and has the exact same issues that I do, we can't walk next to each other pushing them without crashing into one another)
