Peg Perego Aria Stroller - Soleo

Peg Perego Aria Lightweight Stroller
Stroller is nice and lightweight (about 10 lbs.). It maneuvers and handles well. The storage basket is adequate for my diaper bag. The cup holder is good for a water bottle, but that is about it. It has a child's snack tray which was important to me. And it has a floating safety harness which we really like since neither of my children likes to be confined, yet it provides safety and keeps them in the stroller. The only thing I miss from my heavy, bulky full size stroller is the parent organizer where I put my keys, etc. I decided to purchase a parent organizer from Joovy to add to this stroller and it works great.

so happy with it,
i have been through so many strollers since i started having babies 12 years ago, this is my best purchase so far. i searched the net for a light weight, i had the aria with my 6 year old, it was just worn out, so i updated. it took about 2 minuts to put it together, the color is much better than online. i love the harness, my 7 month old can move about as he likes. the sunshade can be pulled all the way down infront of the baby which is great for when the sun is hitting in an annoying angle. its very smooth to push, very light weight, and wow, one hand , click, and its folded. love it... i have only had iy a month, so i dont know about bits falling off, hope not... if its like my 2002 aria then it should be fine.

Use it ALL the time and love it
This is a super lightweight stroller. It is good on cement, streets and even the unpaved dirt/ slightly bumpy paths around my house. We use it everyday and so far so good. Only had it for 3 1/2 months, however, it gets its fair share of being tossed around in the back of my car. I am tall as well as my boyfriend who is 6'5 and he does not seem to have a problem with the height. I love being able to push the stroller with one hand if I need to. Some people have complained about the cup holder being to small for anything. I agree but it does not bother me because I just put a water bottle in the basket below. I have also read complaints about the basket below being too small. REALLY PEOPLE, how much stuff do you really need to carry around with you?? I have a book bag and have not had any complaints with size of basket.
I only have 2 issues with this stroller. 1) we just tried to wash the seat cover and had a very hard time taking it off. I believed my boyfriend had to end up using a screw driver somewhere.
2) When folding up the wheels can get stuck and it can be a hassle to get them to face the right way. You just have to pay attention to which way they are pointing when you are about to fold.
Other than that we are quite happy. Easy, lightweight no problem

excellent stroller
I literally have owned almost every stroller. No I am not a shopaholic- I just think and know that there is no perfect stroller, so as needs changed, strollers were added....I now have 3 children and one very messy garage. Here's the list:
Peg Perego Venezia- nice ride, too big, too heavy.
Aprica- great shade, tough to maneuver, sometimes won't close= STRESS.
Snap N go- miracle stroller for the first 12 months provided baby stays with in the weight range.
Maclaren Triumph- awesome umbrella stroller, no snack tray for parent or child,
Countless cheap umbrella stroller- I toss and go on vacations- all really just not so good...
Graco duo- long and heavy, poor turning radius, I actually returned this one ( only 1 I ever returned )
Twin Umbrella travel stroller- heavy piece of not so good.
Combi twin Savvy- awesome weight, great canopy, folds compact, nice ride, my favorite for a double.
Sit N Stroll- great for the plane/travel, not really great as either a stroller or a carseat but for short term it is fabulous.
With child #3, I didn't want or need another, I was going to do the Snap N go until 12 months then straight to the Maclaren..... but yes I did bc I gave away most of the above and I ran over my Snap N go ( oops). My 3rd child turned out to be a giant baby ( 20 + lbs at 4 month, so he outgrew the Snap N go anyways, and didn't he have the neck support for an umbrella stroller) ....so I sucked it up and bought the Aria One Hand......
and I love it. Comfy ( full recline!), roomy, LIGHT ( I am littler 5ish and my baby is a chunker and most other strollers are heavy so this is GREAT for my back), easy to maneuver, and folds handily The basket is big, it is hard to get to when baby is sleeping, but so??? It has a parents cup holder, and a snack tray for the child ( great!). It cleans in the washing machine too! The straps take some getting used to, but if I didn't have an over the shoulder strap system with this child, he will figure out how to slip out ( the little bugger! ) So...I absolutely don't think you can have it all in one stroller, but this one is close. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Aria for almost everything (except travelling- Maclaren is more compact)...And orange is such a snappy color for my little hipster!

Peg Perego Aria OH
I love this stroller ( it is my second one)!!! Light weight, easy to push, love the new cup holder, my son loves the freedom harness. The harness is not meant to attach to the back of the seat, so your child can see out better and move more. No problem turning the wheels. I could see you having problems if you were in rocks or off road, but the stroller is not for that use. I would recommend it and have to 2 of my friends.
