Just arrived home today, and had great, but HOT trip!!
When we got the stroller we looked for the previously mentioned footrest issue... We were able to see a bunch of zip ties on the leg of one side of the stroller where I'm assuming it ripped away from the rivit. However, the footrest itself was gone!!

It appeared it had just been cut off, but it was placed with the raincover in the bottom of the stroller, so I'm not sure what happened there. We were able to use one set of the shoulder straps and some zip-ties we had brought in anticipation of needing to do a little fix-it job, and made a make shift footrest. We put our lillte guy on that side and it served it's purpose, to keep his toes from dragging.
Other then that the stroller worked great for us, and the raincover was a godsend on a few days/nights!!
Hope everyone else has a great trip!!
