My husband announced before our second son was born that he was putting into place a stroller embargo. Argh! I love my strollers... I used to have about five of them, but after the embargo, no more strollers!

A couple of the older ones we got rid of and finally about six months ago I convinced my husband to let me buy a new stroller for our just turned two year old (I had to let him buy a new cell phone, but it was worth it!).

The Joovy Groove isn't cheap, but it's a fantastic stroller. We live in Florida, and I've always had issues with the stroller canopy not doing anywhere close to a decent job. The Joovy Groove has an extra extender on the canopy, so I rarely find myself in a position where I have to drape something across the front of the stroller to keep the sun out of his eyes. The basket isn't huge, but it's big enough and unlike the Peg Perego Pliko I used to have, I don't lose stuff out of the sides if I fill it up. It's an umbrella and the folding is simple and easy to do one handed. I have issues if I am wearing flippers which is often in Florida because the main mechanism is fairly tough, but I prefer sturdy anyway, so I deal with it. If I'm in sneakers it's a breeze.

The stroller comes with two complete sets of fabric, including a whole different stroller canopy. It's brilliant! One week I have a black stroller and when the mood takes me I can strip the whole thing off and use the lime green one instead. I love it. It also comes with a reversible summer/winter seat pad. It's just a brilliant stroller. I am always getting compliments on it.... especially when it's in lime green mode!

The only thing I wish for is that on the Peg Perego they have a standing area on the back for your older child to stand on. I loved that and would have loved to have seen that feature on this stroller. That would have made it my perfect stroller.
