Babies R Us $139.99 I use this for walking in my neighborhood. Love the speakers. Stroller pushes easily and my son loves the steering wheel and sound effects.
However you need to recline the seat before folding or I have heard of the seat ripping. Athough it is one handed fold.
I recommend this stroller, so far very happy.

We bought the Liberty Limited Urban Terrain from USA Baby for about $140 in Hawaii. When I assembled it, there was some fraying on the strap between the legs, which I then emailed Kolcraft and they responded quickly, although I didn't get the replacement part until I emailed them again asking what took so long. I got the new part (the whole seat cover) within a week of the second email. I can only guess that the first one got lost in the mail. It was a pain to put in the new seat, because you have to use a screwdriver to attach it to the frame. I did manage to do it and remember where all the screws were supposed to go. The straps are a little twisty and there's no padding for the strap between the legs.After getting it together, we use it a lot. Daily strolls around the block and in the park, which was excellent. It was a little hard to go uphill in the grass, but I needed the exercise so I didn't mind too much. The steering is excellent, and you can lock the front wheel if you don't want it to pivot. When the front wheel unlocked, I could easily maneuver the stroller in stores like Walmart and Costco. The basket is excellent for shopping since it is big you can fit a lot in there instead of juggling a basket and steering at the same time. I also have to mention that when you fold it, you should lock the front wheel because when you open it later, it won't balance well on the ground if the front wheel is swivelling around. Also, it is super heavy so if you are petite you might have problems getting it in the car. It also doesn't fold up very small, so you need a big car. I have managed to fit it in the back of my Highlander along with three German Shepherds so it is manageable. The canopy has a little window so you can see your baby's head, but because it doesn't shield the low sun, if you get the rayshade by Kiddopotamus, then you can't see the window. We also dropped it once getting it out of the SUV, and the steering handle got a little crack, but it still works. I have to mention that once the one-hand fold didn't work, but there is a second method on the stroller sides that you pull up and it works. After we had to do that, the one-hand fold worked. Weird.My daughter loves the toy steering wheel and music, and we also use the music on the move, which is pretty good. The sound quality from the speakers is decent. Overall we love it and use it for walks and when I go to dog obedience every Saturday. It holds up well and baby is happy in it. I do wish that the seat cover was removeable for easy cleaning though. You can't put it in the washer, only wipe clean.I would recommend it to people who do some outdoor activities and are physically fit.

Registry gift from BRU ($139.99).I wanted a jogging type stroller, but more for walking. With it's non-fixed front wheel, this fit the bill. It just rides so smooth, is so easy to push! I hope DS will enjoy the toys when he gets older (only 3 mos old) and the speakers have been great for playing music on our walks. I can't really complain about the portability as this is my "Neighborhood" stroller and I don't take it in the car for shopping, etc. Overall, this stroller was a bargain and worth every penny!
