I have used my Kelty Joyrider daily for 3.5 years and still love it! It has a lot of leg room, so my very tall son could ride in it until he was almost 4. (He could have been in it longer, but no longer wanted to be in a stroller.) The canopy is awesome, and will completely shade your child in the sun and cover all but their feet in the rain. There is an optional rain cover, which I purchased as well, and I use that if it is raining hard or really cold. There are 2 drink holders in the back - one for baby and one for you. I also like the peek-a-boo roof on top of the canopy. The stroller is easy to fold and you can remove the wheels easily to make it smaller if you want. The handlebars look funny, but it is easy to push, even with one hand. I frequently push the stroller while carrying a latte! The seat is more structured and less hammock-like than other joggers, which I appreciate. I did hear that the seat is skinnier than some, which is fine for my kids, but if you have an older, chubbier kid, their hiney might get squished. Storage could be better, and I usually end up hanging things from the handlebars, even though you are not supposed to. It takes a lot of weight to tip it though. I bought mine from joggingstroller.com, and they matched the best deal I could find online. I think I paid around $280 (in 2002) and got free shipping. Worth every penny!
