And I'm assuming that since you are recommending it that it's good for travelling? We won't need it for flights so often (Israel-America once a year), but it's a safe bet that we will be shlepping it in and out of taxis a bit in Israel.

I think you are asking this question is the wrong place. 99% of people on DDF are UBV fans, I am not sure you will get an honest review

Exactly, But then remember if you do buy one of these your stroller is your new high chair and will get filthy in minutes (esp when the kids starts to eat regular food)

I bought a seat cover and wash it once every other week.

this for much less in buy buy or even kids r us (i think 12$)

We test-pushed the UBV, the GT, (and the Bugaboos, just for fun). The UBV pushes very easily, everything interchanges easily, seems all around to be a great stroller. The folding definitely takes some getting used to though. My wife is very small and had trouble folding it.

My wife is very small as well, took maybe 2 days to master.
You can try locking the wheels to make it easier to understand the motmotion you need to make.

Yeah the rep at BBB had us lock the wheels. It feels like something that you get used to after a bit of time. Also I'd imagine it's easier to do when you aren't eight and a half months pregnant..

We use this. Had the little table too, but the airline lost it. Its good we didnt replace it. Limits the eating done in the stroller

I had this too, but I hate it! It doesn't fold well with this and the cup holder is really only for closed beverages since open ones will spill.

What am I doing wrong?

I dont think i ever put open cups in there. we usually have strawed beverages or bottles. you need to make it taught inorder for it to stay

Look at the reviews on that vs the one I posted.

Just got a Britax B Agile - Double stroller. My wife really likes it
Got extra 20% off from Amazon for leaving it out in the pouring rain on Shabbos

+1000 on the britax b-agile. Great stroller system, very nice ride and very light and folds very easily. And I have the britax infant car seat which attaches beautifully to the stroller - no need to purchase separate adapter!

Does anyone have experience with the UBV vs the Citi Mini GT in Israel? From what everyone is saying it seems like the UBV is a very versatile stroller, but I've heard that the GT handles all the hills and uneven streets in Israel really well. It's for a first child iy"H.

Personally a big fan of Phil & Ted, especially the new Navigator, but if what people have is a raya, the Citi Mini is definitely the go-to stroller in J'lem. Hardly see the UBV.

Reviewed thread:
Q1. Any comments about Britax B-Ready (any comparison to UppaVista)
Q2. Is best price for UBV / UVB BBB with 20% off and getting some sort of deal on GC's to bbb? (Starting price of Vista being $730).
I'd guess they'd be all out of previous models...

I know of the concept, but at this time of year, where would I find someone having a sale or cheaper price?

shauly · « **Reply #419 on:** June 08, 2014, 01:43:54 AM »

We got the UBV, and so far we love it, thanks so much for all the advice! I was worried that it was difficult to fold, but you get used to it super quickly.

Does anyone have any experience with the travelsafe bag?
