The Great Stroller Debate

My hubby and I are having a debate about our stroller. You see, I found a GREAT deal on an amazing stroller…so I bought it.

Check out the Bumbleride Queen B:

It even comes with a bassinet for Baby VB when he’s tiny and a toddler seat for when Baby #2 comes along!

I think that it’s a great system, but I do see K’s point. He thinks that it’s too large to use in practical everyday applications like shopping. He’s concerned that the turning radius is not tight enough. (He’s analyzed it like the engineer he is.) I showed him how to easily pick up the front wheels to change direction, but he’s not buying it. It’s also quite heavy at 35 lbs. But…It’s so gorgeous! I can just picture myself strolling through our new neighborhood next Spring with this “pram.”

I think we’re going to try to sell it on Craigslist. I’ll be so sad to see it go, but I want him to be happy. He’s certain that we need to get the BOB Revolution. He’s probably right. Would it be so bad for us to own $1500 worth of strollers? ;)
