Hey guys,
I am expecting my first baby in Dec'2012. Currently looking to get a stroller and car seat. There are so many options out there, it's so confusing. I would really appreciate feedback from all the experienced mommies out here. Thanks a lot.

Thats good to know. They gave me an estimate of 5 weeks and said they would call me as soon as the shipment arrived. Will wait for their call:)

I just made a down payment for a Bee at JustKidding they said it will be here end of next week or the week after at the latest, they said a new shipment is coming in.

Thank you so much for the responses. I have ordered the Bugaboo bee plus and will use the maxi cosi car seat with it. The only problem is that I will have to wait for 5 weeks (2 weeks past my due date) for the stroller to arrive; it's out of stock in Dubai:( Meanwhile, a friend in US also recommended that she could buy and send me the Baby jogger City Mini. She has it and loves it...I am confused; should I just ask her to send it and cancel my Bugaboo order???

Im really happy with our Maxi Cosi Elea pushchair and Maxi Cosi Pebble carseat. The pushchair folds very compact, and the seat reclines totally flat. Pushchair was 2000dhs, car seat was 800dhs from Mom & Me.

Hi I have the Bugaboo Bee plus and the Maxi Cosi Pebble. I agree with angel Joy in that it is very easy to use, folds flat and the maxi cosi just clips on the top and can be used for the first 6 months. I don’t drive and it folds flat so perfect for me to use when out and about :)

I have the Quinny Buzz 3 and the Maxi Cosi Pebble (new version) with the family fix base for the car (or whichever one fits the next stage seat too, I always confuse the names). I really like the Quinny, it feels sturdy and nice to 'drive', though on the negative side it has a tiny basket and you cannot use its seat for a newborn, some say 4 months some 6 and I will probably veer towards the 6 month advice. So, in the meantime, I use the Pebble when I take DD out or an umbrella type stroller that becomes flat. My understanding is that the Bee goes flat, so presumably you can use from birth and that could be a big plus if you plan to be out and about a lot.

Thanks a lot for the responses. Even I am leaning towards the Maxi Cosi Pebble car seat. I just wasnt sure which push car it would be compatible with. Will certainly look into the Bugaboo. I am all in for a lightweight stroller system which is easy to manouver. Where did you guys get these products from? Do let me know. Thanks!

Same thing, we got bugaboo bee+, maxi cosi pebble (just a bit newer version of cabriofix) with family base (according to Adac crash tests the best is Romer car seat (very good), maxi cosi got Good mark).

i know its overwhelming!! for 6 months before delievery we researched so much. mostly every weekend went in this exercise. we finally got bugaboo bee plus and it was worth the money. i got maxi cosi cabriofix along with it. bugaboo is light weight,easy to fold,easy to manouver,i don't have to use both hands to puch it. just a light touch from one hand.ds likes facing me (6 month old) so that's a good thing and it folds in both the positions.i travel alot in metro and taxis's and it is very easy. the only problem is that ds is a big baby and i think i have to get a chameleon soon. he fits in that completely :D
