I have never written a product review on anything before, but I have to proselytize about this stroller. I bought the metro deluxe before a trip to NYC with my 5 month old and am completely in love. Honestly prefer it in every way to my overpriced uppababy. He could sit up, he could take naps, I could push it with one hand. I could take it in little stores and push it around without getting stuck. Jillian J. · ergobaby.se
