Excellent stroller with all the features!
By Anjea E. Ray
I couldn't find many reviews on this particular model - perhaps it's being discontinued? - but it's WONDERFUL. I am so pleased with my purchase, and Amazon's price was great. From what I found online, Mia Moda apparently has great customer service, which is just another perk. I wanted to write a thorough description/review, in hopes that it will help someone make their decision easier.In brief, I highly recommend this stroller. It has all of the key features that anyone could possibly want in a stroller, is easy to assemble, and comes with clearly written instructions for each of the features. I bought this stroller without ever having seen one in person due to the features it had, and I'm so happy with my purchase. Every stroller I tried in stores had something I really didn't like about it - no adjustable handlebar, no kid or parent tray, 3-point harness only, etc. This stroller has it ALL.This stroller seriously has absolutely *everything* you could want in a stroller:1. Nearly full recline with one-hand mechanism. The stroller construction is sturdy with its metal bracing on the back of the seat instead of straps like most other strollers. This was important to me, as I don't think the straps that are typically used are sturdy for wear and tear over time.2. One-touch rear brakes and locking/swivel option for front wheels. Rear wheels are far enough apart to ensure you don't hit them with your feet (like umbrella strollers).3. Full canopy that is fully adjustable. It sticks up kind of high when out of use but that's a minor point. It does detach from the back of the stroller to be moved forward, and you can fold it up partway for a short visor if you wish. There is also a large pocket integrated into the backside of the canopy, which is a nice place for storage. It's large enough that you could put something like a binder, folders, or library books in. The canopy is also slightly domed, so it allows for more headspace clearance.4. Adjustable foot rest - my toddler loves to ride sitting Indian-style, so this was a big selling point for me.5. LARGE basket that drops down so that it is easily accessible no matter what the position of the seat.6. Snack tray for the kid, parent tray with two cup holders and a closing center console area for phone/keys. The console area opens and closes with a light push. My smart phone fit in it and it closed (HTC EVO Shift) with room to spare. If you put the shade all the way up, it will interfere with being able to put a cup in the holders.7. Widely adjustable, padded handlebar. My husband particularly likes this feature.8. Four-wheel suspension, which makes for a very smooth ride no matter the terrain. The wheels are heavy-duty plastic, and I think they will do great for most anywhere you would normally take a stroller.9. Comfy padded seat and strap covers (over a 5-point harness) with head wings to make for comfy naps. The material is quality, sturdy, and will wear well, I think. I like the colors, too (I got blue).10. One-hand fold and stroller stays standing up when folded. I do not have an issue folding it one-handed - flip the latch in the handle up, squeeze, and push forward. It does require a second hand to unfold it, but that's more due to the sheer weight of the stroller as you can't "shake it out" one-handed to unfold it.11. Accepts most major infant car seats for a travel system set-up. (Our Graco Snugride35 fit.)12. Good for up to 45 pounds. It's also a tall stroller, so a kid with a long torso would also be comfortable riding in this stroller. My 31-ish inch 21-month-old has the straps on the second setting.The only real con is that it is heavy - about 23 pounds - but really, how often are you really lifting a stroller, besides in/out of the car? If you're used to picking up your kid, then no big deal, right? This stroller literally has EVERY feature I want in a stroller.I hope this review is helpful to someone - I wish there were more reviews on this stoller online, but there really is a dearth! Mia Moda clearly put a lot of thought into the design of this stroller, and I'm so pleased that I found it while combing Amazon for a new one. I can't imagine not loving this stroller. :)

Sturdy but heavy
By B's mommy
Great that baby can lay almost completely flat (approx 160 degree angle) to sleep. Foot rest adjustable to keep baby's legs all the way up and the feet don't hang over the edge.Large basket!Can't exactly open and close with one hand. One hand to push the lever on the handle and the other hand (or one leg) is needed to open and close all the way, but very smooth and easy without wheels or anything getting in the way (as with our old stroller). Definitely need two hands to lift up and put into the car.No peek window on the back of the stroller or on the canopy, so cannot see baby when pushing the stroller.Canopy slips off too easily. Sometimes when opening the stroller, the canopy completely pops off the stroller, though easy to pop back on. When adjusting the canopy for various degrees of coverage, the whole canopy can again pop off the stroller and needs to be put back on. Canopy is large but just sticks out horizontally in one direction; wish it was a curved canopy for better coverage.Handle adjustable for various heights.Large baby and adult trays.

By Jule
We love this stroller so far. The first one arrived bent, but once we started using it, it was wonderful. I am 5'8" and my husband is 6'2", so we were having problems finding a stroller that was a good height for both of us. This one has an adjustable handle so anyone could push it. The basket is huge and the side flips down on it. I can get anything I need from it with the seat fully reclined! The canopy is one of my favorite things about this stroller too. It extends out and then rotates down all the way to the snack tray if needed. I wish it would fold up a little smaller, but all the other items on my list were more important than that. Here are the items I wanted that this stroller has: snack tray with cup holder, parent cup holder (it has two), large basket, fully reclining seat, canopy, adjustable handle, place to put my keys when I go for a walk (compartment that closes and a pouch on the back of it), easy to open, and comfortable for the little guy (he has fallen asleep in his new ride several times already)! I highly recommend this stroller.
