Stroller!!

After approximately 217,543 hours spent online doing Stroller Research, I have finally settled on a stroller!!!

Product Description
The Combi Helio is a lightweight 13.4 lb. stroller and can accommodate up to 55 lbs.
  • Taller Handle
  • Wider seating area
  • Compatible with Shuttle Infant Seat
  • Quick and simple tri-fold
  • Lightweight and portable lifestyle stroller
  • Opens easily with one hand
  • Deep recline will accommodate an infant
  • Adjustable European Style Canopy with Viewing Window
  • Basket with easy access
  • Convenient carrying strap for traveling
  • Removable Guardrail with Washable Fabric Cover
  • Front swivel wheels for easy maneuvering
  • Convenient footrest for toddler comfort
  • Removable, Washable Padded Seat Cushion
  • Seat cushion has air mesh ventilation that allows baby to stay cool
  • Independent wheel suspension system for a smooth and restful ride
  • Includes Safety Boot
  • 5-point logo harness
  • Removable kids tray with a cup holder and snack tray
I was originally planning to get the Flex, which has a much better sun shade, more cushiony fabric, and a one-hand fold design (although it only folds flat with one hand, and won't lock that way; to do the tri-fold and actually lock it you need two hands anyway). But the Flex wasn't available anywhere that I could find cheaper than $180, while the Helio was a steal on amazon at $91 including shipping. I'll probably buy a shade extender to snap on it. Only downside- I'll have to wait 1-2 months for delivery. But at least I can FINALLY cross "Find the Perfect Stroller" off my to do list...

Love, Neb

hi Neb:
Question unrelated to your post: you mentioned you did part time tutoring online last Thursday. Could you possibly email me the specifics? Thank you. (Nate has my email address)
