Comments about Mutsy Mutsy 4Rider:

We have the Mutsy 4rider Single Spoke with Joey seat, Traveller lie-flat car seat, rocker frame, and shopping bag attachment. We absolutely adore this system. [...]: It IS a bit heavy to put into the trunk of our Prius, but the suspension, maneuverability, and practical accessories are definitely worth the trade-off! The 4rider light has foam tires so it is a bit lighter, but we wanted air tires and improved suspension. The Mutsy comes with a bike-style air pump that clips into the built-in basket. CLOTH PADDED child safety bar: One bonus is that the "bar" that holds your child in the seat is completely upholstered in the same nylon fabric as the rest of the seat, so no chance of baby taking a "chomp" out of the bar (as an UppaBaby Vista reviewer's daughter did). FOLDING: The Mutsy has a one-hand fold (even with seat attached). HANDLE HEIGHT: The handle adjusts with one-touch to accomodate all heights (very important for us since I am 5'1" and my husband is 6'6"). ROCKER FRAME: The rocker frame lets you put the seat into the frame so your child can rock/bounce on his own (or with your rocking). It comes with a "lock" so you can use the frame as a non-rocking bouncer. EXTRA STORAGE: The shopping bag attachment is ROOMY! It is an aluminum frame with a fabric/mesh bag attached that will hold the contents of an entire paper shopping bag with space left over for your purse or a small diaper bag. CAR SEAT: The Traveller lie-flat car seat is only approved for use in the EU, so we had to go the "friend of a friend" route to buy it, but many experts say that it's not good for spinal development to keep infants "curled" in the car seat too long, so this 3 position lie-flat seat was the right choice for us. Some parents may not be comfortable with using an European approved car seat, but we looked at the safety standards and felt they were at least as stringent as the US standards. VERSUS: Chameleon, UppaBaby, Stokke (tested in the stores) Chameleon - did not steer one-handed as well as the Mutsy. The handle did not extend as high. It seems like 80% of our neighbors in San Francisco have the Chameleon. UppaBaby - more unique, and slightly lighter than the Mutsy. The handle did not extend as high, also the handle was much less substantial - when fully extended, it rocked and clattered in the frame (didn't do this when the handle was in the lowest position). Stokke - we almost went with the Stokke. The high seat was great, and the handle was high enough for my husband and low enough for me. However, all three times we tested the Stokke, I was unable to fold the stroller unassisted. One salesman even told me to put "one foot here, one foot there, and now push there with your other foot". The last time I checked, I only had TWO feet, not three, so I decided to take a pass on the Stokke. For more coordinated parents (or those with three feet, I suppose), the Stokke could be a great city-stroller for sidewalk use. All this to say we LOVE our Mutsy!!
