We bought this stroller in April of 2005, and paid $60 for it on clearance. When our daughter outgrew her infant seat, we decided to sell her travel system (we did not like the Graco Literider stroller AT ALL) and buy a stroller that folded more compactly. Maclarens, Inglesinas, etc. were out of our budget, so our options were limited. We were in Babies R Us checking out a Chicco Tuscany when I discovered the EuroTrend Sport. Let me say this first, it has THE EXACT SAME body and style as the Inglesina Swift, and it was half the price!!We have been using this stroller now on a very regular basis (2-3 times a week minimum) for over 2 years. It is VERY durable. Nothing has broken, nothing has gotten torn in any way, shape or form. I love the umbrella fold because it doesn't take up much room in my trunk. It steers well, and I can even push it with one hand (albeit with some difficulty) if necessary. My husband is 6'2" and the handle heights are perfect for even him.When my daughter was younger my only complaint was that it didn't fully recline. Now that she'll be 3 next month, that isn't very necessary. It must glide nicely, because even now she sleeps in it very soundly!!At 35 pounds at 37 inches tall, my daughter still fits well in this. She even has plenty of head room left. The basket is small (and there's no access to it if the seat is reclined to its max) and there is no cupholder but we bought one that attaches to the stroller and that works just fine.I am actually VERY SAD and VERY DISAPPOINTED that this stroller is no longer made! I was hoping for another one when we had #2. I've even got a search going on eBay and craigslist for one... I like it THAT much!So if you can get your hands on it, I say go for it!!
