I am expecting baby #3 I"YH in about four weeks. My youngest now is five, and I've actually had a cameleon before, which I've sold (and kind of regretting, but I digress). My question is, should I get the bugaboo bee or cameleon or frog (cuz its $529). We live in the suburbs, in and out of the car a lot, so I think a bee would be better. However, I also really really want a bassinet, for walks with the baby, and for sleeping in the house. I have older kids, who like to play outside after camp, so it would so easy for me to have a nice bassinet stroller for the summer. Any advice? I did use the cameleon in and out of the car, but I sold it thinking it was too much stroller for my lifestyle. I probably should just get two strollers, but I don't know what to pick! Good strollers are important to me, and I am willing to spend on them.

They don't make the frog anymore.

It is discontinued, however, some stores are selling it for really good prices, so I am seriously considering it.

I have a similar question, except I think that bugaboo in general is no good for suburban living.
I was looking at the uppababy, but now think that it's also too much hassle. Where is there a good bassinet option that works for suburban car life?

Peanut: I have been doing tons of research! One serious contender is the mamas and papas urbo: but it is pricey, and I am concerned with resale value. I actually checked out this stroller twice, and was very impressed. The one thing I did not like was the basket. It folds pretty compact - larger than the bee, and slightly heavier, but really not bad for in and out of the car.

There is also the inglesina zippy and avio, but they are not reversible, and I really want a reversible seat for when my baby is I"YH out of the bassinet.

Another lighter weight is the Icandy cherry, but it does not fold with seat on.
