Good stroller, March 9, 2006
This review is from: Chicco Ct0.6 Capri Lightweight Stroller, Red (Baby Product)
I bought this stroller a couple of weeks ago for a trip we were going on. It's a lot easier to carry around than the big ones that take the car seat. I love the 5-point harness, and it folds and unfolds pretty easily (the plastic clip is a bit unruly). The harness snap is stiff, and I've given myself a couple of blood blisters trying to close it. We borrowed a friend's older version a few months ago, and ours has some improved features:
-better canopy to cover baby
-better handles (I think they're more ergonomic)
-better undercarriage basket
CONS: I'm 5'6" and have a little trouble with the handle height. I'm not sure why someone can't make an umbrella stroller with extendable handles, but I haven't seen one for a decent price. I find that when I'm walking at a moderate/fast pace, my feet hit the wheels. I can get around this by holding on with one hand and walking beside the stroller, but it's a bit aggravating. Also, when you fold up the stroller, the wheels hit the top of the canopy and leave dirt marks. Minor, but slightly annoying when you live in a dusty area.
PROS: The 5-point harness works great for my 5-month old. The basket is big enough to carry a small diaper bag. There is no cup holder, but I hear you can purchase snap-on ones at BRU. Overall a pretty great product.

This stroller is a MUST have, March 24, 2006
This review is from: Chicco Ct0.6 Capri Lightweight Stroller, Red (Baby Product)
We have 4 different strollers for our 9 month old and this one is by far THE BEST. A must have. It's lightweight and comfortable. Shoulder straps are ideal, most other upright umbrella type strollers don't have shoulder straps. The baby and I flew from California to Florida and this was ideal in the airport. I could hold my 9 month old and collapse it by myself when going through security.

A FINE UMBRELLA STROLLER, April 12, 2006
This review is from: Chicco Ct0.6 Capri Lightweight Stroller, Red (Baby Product)
I purchased this stroller as a second stroller for my now 2 year old - for travel mostly and some quick trips to the store. It serves it's purpose nicely. I love that it has the 5 point harness and is not as "flimsy" as a lot of other umbrella strollers out there. The canopy is not very big and the "recline" is not either - but for a second stroller - it can't be beat for the price. I'm actually looking to get another one for my son too - 7 months.
