After you have kids, your garage turns into the place where misfit strollers go to die. It’s really hard to find the right fit. A stroller is something that you will either love or hate. When I was newly pregnant, my parents gave me a Peg Perego Pliko P3 as a gift. Did I research it at all? NO. Was it expensive? YES. Does that mean it should be good? I hoped so.
That was (gasp) 4 years ago! 2 kids later, I can tell you this about the P3- It’s a great stroller and worth every cent! Here’s my breakdown:
Pros:
Footboard for toddler to ride on, hands down the BEST feature, and it’s the only stroller on the market with a built-in footboard.
Fits a Peg Perego infant seat, and has a strap to fit any seat
Folds well even one-handed
Rides smooth, not bumpy at all
Cons:
Storage underneath is hard to get to— you have to go in from the side or front because the footboard is in the back
No space to throw your keys, only one cupholder (though you can buy attachments)
The lowdown— this is the stroller to have if you plan to have 2 kids. My 18 month old sits in the stroller and my 3 year old rides on the footboard. It makes life so much easier. It’s defintely on my list of most valued baby products!
They currently retail for around $365, but there are plenty of options on eBay or albeebaby.com for much less.
Thanks to mommy Abby for the tip on albeebaby.com! Great site!
