Help an Engineering Student: What's Important To You In A Stroller?

One child, two rides, one brand: Uppa Baby Vista and an Uppa Baby G-Luxe. And I may be biased, but I am seeing the Vistas everywhere these days - they seem to be catching on.

Always folded, always by the front door. Folded, it minimizs the eyesore.

A great post - always good to see what alternatives are out there to the basic IKEA pink.

Mom to Frances,

Small question...where did you get the little watertower bookend I see on the bookcase? Love it!

Thanks.

A waste of the Times' $ (though good for their lawyers). Especially as print pubs are going the same way content aggregation in order to boost circ. I can't object to their wanting to control their brand, but do it in a way that encourages their content to be absorbed, not their business practices to be mocked.

I only thought it fair to update my comment above, in light of the fact that Blu Dot has made good on the issues I described above. In fact, and this is something that the AT community will appreciate, their management in MN referenced the fact that we were "early adopters" in addressing our complaints. That is the way it should be. Now I can sit back and enjoy my new furniture, instead of stewing over it!

Love their stuff -- it is reasonably priced, original and clean.

[Jilted Customer Alert] However, having walked into the NYC showroom the week it opened in December and proceeding to purchase 12, count 'em, 12 items, I am completely disillusioned with their service.

1. Items were promised to be delivered by the new year. The final items were received the last week of February, eight weeks late.
2. Modulicious night tables were sent without their floor pads attached, which we only learned after sliding them into place causing an 1/8" gash in our new floors. Bludot has yet to compensate.
3. The last item received was also damaged in transit and we have yet to be informed about its replacement.
4. And finally, the highlight? The store manager informed us that with all of the issues on this order we as customers were becoming "unprofitable". Talk about great service.

We have a similarly proportioned bed from Atlantico and went with Bludot's Modulicious night tables.

I just purchased some Wonk cubes about a month ago for bathroom storage. The pieces look great and appear to be built really well. I was able to save on shipping by picking them up directly from their shop in Williamsburg. Nice to have something built custom locally.

It probably doesn't help that this building was host to a double-murder-suicide last week.

Looks a lot like henrybuilt, which is decidedly not low-end. Maxwell has introduced us all to that brand.

I agree with thevince: contrast is key, so it is actually hard to answer without seeing the other pieces.
