| Why all the low ratings? I love it! | |
| I love my Pliko! It started with the infant seat, then the Aria (didn't match though, but still a great stroller!), and now we have the Pliko. A few things I love about this stroller are the A few things that could be improved are This stroller has met all of my needs. I can not wait to use it on the next baby- when there is one. Not only am I comfortable using it, but my daughter is comfortable riding/sleeping in it! It is definetly worth the money, which is why I don't understand how it could possibly have a rating under five stars. | |
| I can't believe all of the negative comments! | |
| I am in shock at all of the negative comments about the Pliko. This has been the best stroller for me and my son. I bought it 2 years ago when he was born and we haven't had one problem. Yes, the drink holder broke off but I think that it was added as an afterthought. Big deal. We are currently living in Italy where this is the only stroller to have unless you buy the whole system with the carriage for when the baby is first born which is also made by Peg Perego. For someone constantly on the go, riding on trains, subways, etc., this stroller has been indispensable! It folds easily, is lightweight, allows for an older child to hitch a ride on the back, is extremely well balanced (I can have a diaper bag, my purse and several shopping bags on the back of the stroller and take my son out of the stroller without having it tip over backwards), it can turn on a dime, stand on it's own once folded properly, and allows you to put other things in your small trunk besides just the stroller. We also bought the Adjuster Bar from ToyRUs online for about $20 that made our other namebrand carseat useable with this stroller. I love the 5 point harness which keeps my 2 year old in place and the recline may not be all the way down but it is still flat enough to provide a comfortable napping place. I have bought a small net shopping bag that hangs from the handles and will accommodate a few things and still allow the seat to recline. I also have the matching diaper bag. I do love that it hooks right on and allows for more storage space than the small basket. I think that you have to understand that this is an upscale umbrella stroller so it has a small, hard to reach basket and a non existent cup holder and two seperate handles. You really have to decide if those 3 things make that big of a difference. To me, they don't. I love my stroller. It is perfect for city life, as well as, just strolling around the mall. I compare my Pliko to the strollers of my friends that were purchased around the same time and know that I have definitely spent my money well. Many of those friends are now spending the money to get the Pliko. | |
| BY FAR THE BEST STROLLER ON THE MARKET! | |
| AFTER PLANNING A TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD WHEN MY SON WOULD BE TURNING 7 MONTHS OLD, I REALISED THAT OUR GRACO TRAVEL SYSTEM JUST WOULD NOT DO!ALL THOUGH ROOMY ENOUGH AND COMFORTABLE FOR HIM, IT WAS DEFINATELY GOING TO BE A PROBLEM FOR US FOR THE FOLLWING REASONS: 1. IT WOULD TAKE UP TOO MUCH ROOM IN THE MINI VAN (4 ADULTS AND 1 CHILD WOULD BE TRAVELING) 2. IT WAS TOO HEAVY TO BE LUGGING IN AND OUT OF THE CAR AFTER SPENDING 6-10 HOURS AT THE THEMES PARKS, THEN TRYING TO LUG IT INTO THE HOTEL AFTER A LONG DAY 3. PLUS I WAS NOT COMFORTABLE WITH MY 7 MONTH OLD RIDING FACE FORWARD WITH ONLY THE LITTLE SEAT BELT IT COMES WITH AND HE IS ALSO SLIDING TO EITHER SIDE OF THE CARRIAGE STILL, AND THE CUSHION IS NOT VERY THICK, SO HE BANGS HIS HEAD ON THE METAL FRAME. AFTER SPENDING ALOT OF TIME ON LINE RESEARCHING ALL THE NEW LIGHT WEIGHT AND MEDIUM WEIGHT STROLLERS, COMPARING PRICES AND GOODIES THEY COME WITH, AND READING EVERYONES REVEIWS, I CAME TO THIS CONCLUSION: "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!" I WAS ORIGINALLY LOOKING AT THE METRO LITE AND THE QUATTRO..THANK GOD I WENT TO THE STORE TO ACTUALLY TEST THEM OUT..THE METRO LITE IS NOT EXPENSIVE BUT SMALL AND COMPACT BUT IF YOU LEAN TO HARD ON IT, IT FEELS LIKE ITS GOING TO BREAK! PLUS THERE IS NO BACK SUPPORT IN THE SEAT, FEELS LIKE A PIECE OF SEMI THICK CARDBOARD, NOT GOOD FOR A LONG DAY AT THE THEME PARKS! THE QUATTRO IS JUST AS BIG AS MY TRAVEL SYSTEM...SO WHY BOTHER? I DIDN'T WANT TO SPEND ALOT ON A SECOND STROLLER BUT YOU DEFINATELY SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY, IT HAS BACK SUPPORT, 4 POSITION SEAT RECLINE, EASY FOLD AND UNFOLD, CUP HOLDER AND WATER BOTTLE HOLDER, LARGE BASKET, NICE MATERIAL, BIG SUN SHADE, FOLDS UP LIKE AN UMBRELLA STROLLER NOT LIKE THE TRAVEL SYS., VERY LIGHT, FITS IN OVER HEAD COMPARTMENT ON AIRPLANE AND IN SMALL TRUNKS, NICE WHEELS THAT LET YOU ROLL THE STROLLER WHILE FOLDED, SNACK TRAY THAT OPENS OUT AND A 5 POINT HARNESS, ADJUSTABLE HANDELS AND FOOT REST, CUSHIONS SO THICK IT HELD MY SON STRAIGHT INSTEAD OF FALLING OVER. THE ONLY DRAW BACK I FOUND WAS THE BARS UNDER THE SEAT PROHIBIT YOU FROM PUTTING ANY ONE LARGE ITEM IN THE BOTTOM, YOU CAN PUT A LOT OF ITEMS IN BUT NOT ONE BIG ITEM...THAT SHOULD BE IMPROVED UPON. LIKE MAYBE HAVING THESE BAGS ON SOME SORT OF ARMS THAT SLIDE OUT. BUT ALL IN ALL THIS WAS BY FAR THE BEST STOLLER ON THE MARKET TODAY AND I BABY TESTED THEM ALL IN THE STORE. AND IF YOUR NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE FACT THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF STORAGE COMPARTMENTS THEN PURCHASE THE ACCESSORY KIT FOR $12.00. IT HAS 4 S HOOKS, 2 COVERED SNACK CUPS, WATER BOTTLE HOLDER, CUP HOLDER, TOY BAG ETC.....LOVED THIS STROLLER! |
