Great stroller. Needed to get something light weight because I have a bad back. Very light and well made. Would reccommend it to anyone! My 10 month old son loves it too! We also bought the rain cover for it too, which is another good investment.

We have the Bugaboo Chameleon and I chose this stroller to keep in the car because it is the lightest that reclines, it's easy to fold and it has a great sun cannopy. My only complaint is that the spring fell off the lever upon first use.

I bought this stroller because I needed something to commute with my son in, on the subway/train. After two weekends of errands and such plus 2 days of commuting, I am pleased with my purchase.

The first day it came out of the box, my 15 month old crawled over to it and climbed right in. It is nice and light (i can lift one handed no problem). Turns on a dime. Pretty smooth ride on concrete. A little bumpy on carpet and tall grass. Handle bars are a nice height, works for me and my 6 ft tall husband. Basket is handy. Carry strap great for hanging on the wall (stroller storage closet at daycare). The reclining option is nice, although I wish I could do raise it one handed like i could with our chicco travel system and I wish it was a full recline.

Cup holder is so-so. I'm a little worried about the stand. I'm pretty rough with my gear and it may not handle all the in and out of the car, closet, etc. everyday. Also, it is pretty easy to open/close, but the opening part could be a little easier AND it would be fabulous if it was one-handed.

Less expensive than MacLaren - more attractive too, in my opinion.

So far, so good. I would be happier if I'd paid closer to $100 for it than $160+

After all the research I did I ended up purchasing the Uppa Baby G-Luxe. It was between this or the Maclaren. What led me to purchase the Uppa one was the Sun Canopy...the color..the cost and the easy fold. I tought the Maclaren was more difficult to fold and though their reclining system is a lil easier to do than the Uppa felt the Uppa reclined more. It's a toss. Maybe next time I would get the Macclaren but for now...I'm very happy with the G-Luxe, it's very lightweight, has a strap for to carry on the shoulder AND customer service is excellent and very responsive.

All in all, the stroller works pretty good. There has been an issue with the front tire that comes up every once in awhile. Other than that it is lightweight and easy to open. My daughter loves to ride in it. I would recommend it.

This stroller is simply perfect! It folds easily, it's lightweight and still padded with recline. I love the fabric and overall material, it's such a high quality item.
We compared it to Chicco and Maclaren, after test driving the first two in stores. The features on this one are simply better, so we felt confident buying it online without having seen it.
In comparison to others, it folds easier, drives smoother, and the clips are so much better, it's a breeze to handle and put your baby in and out, and overall feels like a dream of a stroller. Perfectly happy customer!

I could not be happier with this wonderful stroller. When picking out a new stroller for my one-year-old, here are the main things I was looking for: LIGHT weight, good canopy, rolls nicely, good recline, comfortable tall handles for me, easy to fold, big basket, and nice looking. The G-Luxe is all of these things and more.

When I heard the stroller only weighs 11 lbs (the same weight as my MacLaren Easy Traveler frame for infant carseats), I was ecstatic. I spend a significant amount of time carrying my stroller-resistant baby while pushing the stroller, so it was crucial to have something light and easy to push. The handles are so tall that I don't have to bend down to reach them while I'm holding her. HUGE plus! I LOVE that the release to fold the stroller up is at the handles, too. I can easily fold up the stroller and put it in the trunk while holding the baby, simply by leaning the wheels against the car while folding. To me, it folds so much more easily and logically than MacLarens and I love not having to use my foot to do it. Oh, and there's a great carrying strap.

The sun shade is outstanding. Completely adjustable and huge. The recline feature is well-done. The cup holder is fabulous and actually holds regular sized cups (unlike some of my friends' strollers w/tiny cupholders such as Combi). It's a smooth ride and my daughter seems happy when she's actually riding it. Plus, it holds all my stuff!

On top of all that, it is modern and pretty. I have the Jake (black with silver). I would buy this stroller again in a heartbeat. Worth every penny.

I had the Maclaren Triumph and my baby was not comfortable in it at all. She is 10 months old and on the small side and I always felt she was swimming in that stroller. I also hated the way it opened up - the G-Luxe is so easy to open and close. It also feels sturdy for what it is. I would recommend it to anyone!

I like this stroller very much. It compares well to the MacLauren Triumph. It is lightweight and has decently tall handles (my husband and I are tall) and handles well. The fold mechanism is a little awkward at first and the recline feature (which uses string and a toggle like a jacket to tighten and loosen) works well to recline fully, but is hard to adjust back up to an upright position with the child in it. On the plus side, the recline is infinitely adjustable. If the seat is in recline, there is no way to put anything in the basket. Overall, we are quite pleased.
