Stroller for one year old

[KittieKat]

Hi I need advice! I recently bought a kolcraft cloud umbrella stroller. I bought it because it was lightweight and has a really long extended canopy. I use a graco stroller at home that is bulky and hard to carry honestly.

But! Now I'm like I it a lot... But it doesn't recline. Will be kid pass out in stroller sitting up? Plan was for him to hopefully take a morning nap in stroller and then afternoon nap back at resort.

I saw this one at store last week

And it reclines and is lightweight but a hundred dollars..

Is it worth the money to get a new one? My husband isn't fond of the idea of another stroller

Everyone I know that has a zobo really loves it and it's similar to the Chico echo I had (but with a better canopy) which I loved as well. Maybe try to find one second hand or wait for toys r us to put out one of their 20% off coupons and that may help?

We prefer the recline - even though our 2 yo would fall asleep sitting up, she just sleeps longer and better laying down. We have the chicco liteway which looks a lot like that zono one. While it doesn't have an awesome canopy, we like the rest of the features such that we just bought a canopy extender and it fully covers her whenever she is napping.

Agree to maybe wait for coupon or secondhand. My.husband was far more amenable to sale price. And we were able to sell one of our old strollers via a consignment store.

I wouldn't want to go WDW without a good reclining stroller with a 1 year old.

Ditto. I wouldn't want togo without a reclining stroller either. We picked up a Zoe this time and while it's not full recline, it's far enough and so small (while still being tall enough for me to pursuance I'm 5'10"). We love it. The zobo looks great too. Well worth the expense for a good stroller IMO.

I bit the bullet. Just bought a summer infant 3d lightweight stroller. Reclines and has a bigger basket than my current umbrella stroller (even found someone to buy it tomorrow!) My husband and sister think it's dumb to buy a new one just for a reclining feature, but momma knows best

You'll never regret making your baby more comfortable! Happy, rested baby = Happy parents. We've bought so many strollers for our three kids (I think I'm on #7 in 13 years with 3 kids). They've all been worthwhile purchases for the phase of life we were in - only one was a regret, but that's not bad odds. We even bought one stroller just for Disney - I miss that stroller! But it was a caboose and didn't make sense to hold onto it now that only one child is needing one. But it was a lemon yellow and I could pick it out in a sea of black strollers - never lost track of it in all of our Disney trips. I bought a bright pink one for my daughter with that same mentality - I hope it's just as easy to spot when we go back in October .

I definitely think you would want a reclining stroller for a 1 year old. When we took our 6 month old we had a Maclaren with a full recline and it was a lifesaver. He was able to sleep in there a LOT. Maybe check Craigslist or another local selling site? Sometimes you can find nice strollers much cheaper. I just got a Maclaren Twin Techno for our upcoming trip on Craigslist and it was only 1/4 of the retail cost and hardly used (ironically only for a WDW trip). Good luck!

We went with the summer infant 3d one convenience stroller. I got it directly from their website about 2 months ago while there was a 40% off code, such a score I think. Our son is 13 months now and we have 3 strollers - jogger, a travel system, and now this suped up umbrella one. 3 strollers is ridiculous but I justified it with 1) the coupon, and 2) I keep it in my parents car so they use it when they have the baby. My son is nosey and doesn't nap if anything is going on around him but the recline feature is nice just for relaxing.
