Stroller Recommendations please

[tyzzle]

Yes, another stroller question. I have a bigger almost two and a half year old. I have a chicco capri umbrella stroller, and she is pretty big in it. It is also annoying because my DH cannot push it, and after awhile I too have some trouble because the handles so short. Does anyone have any recommendations? Here are some other things I am looking for:

Umbrella/Light weight
Reclining
Footrest
Cup holders
high weight limit

I know I might not get everything, but really need the height in the handles (adjustable if possible). Please help.

Have you checked out Maclarens? I have a Techno that has adjustable handles and it is great for the parks. It does NOT have a cupholder, but it does have a 55 lb. weight limit, full recline, basket, easy fold-up, and foot rest. I don't know the weight but it's not that heavy.

My older daughter is 5 and very tall (at least 46") and can ride in it comfortably still.

I also have a Peg Perego P3 with height adjustable handles, but it's a bit bulkier.

As a father of three, let me just say a hate umbrella strollers. They are cheap, hard to fold, and I can not stand being humbed over trying to push the thing. In fact, if my wife would insist on bringing the thing I would be up front and tell her she would be the one pushing the piece of junk.

That was until we discovered the "MACLAREN"

This thing is absolutley awesome and we loved it at Disney. Only one negative is that when you hang you bags on the bars if your DS or DD decides to jump out the stroller takes a dump. Beyond that.... Our DS 3 loved it and so did his dad.

For my last DL trip I decided not to rent and to get a stroller for my DD (who had just turned 4). I didn;t want to shell out a ton of money for something.

I got a Evenflo X Sport Convinience stroller. It was about $50 (google shopping search for it). It comes in pink and grey.

I liked it because: basket underneath, stroller handles adjust up and down and angle, fabric pockets for items (inc a zippered pouch), fabric cup holder- GREAT for water bottles, sunshade that is adjustable (my DD loved to pull t down to shield her eyes) and the sunshade comes off. The front wheels swivel which I love and made it easy to steer. My friend who has a Maclaren and another pricey stroller actually just borrowed my stroller to take on their vacation! They tested it out and LOVED it.

Here is a pic- doesn't show much, but you can see how an avg sized 4 yr old fits
