Hi everyone,

I went shopping with my MIL last week and ended up coming home with the Valco SE runabout tri mode stroller. I originally wanted the Phil and Teds E3 - but MIL talked me into the Valco. My hubby likes the look of the valco and our best friends have the same one for their son... I guess I am happy with it, but still wondering what other people thought of this stroller?

Thanks

I have an e3 and love it, I havent used the valco but I think it would be fine for 1 child cause its easy to adjust the back height from laying to sitting when your bub gets to sitting up. The e3 is very fidly with the backrest adjustment and the basket can be hard to get to. The valcos a bit wide for most checkouts and I think can be unstable with a toddlerseat, when it gets to that!! I choose the e3 cause I had number 2 on the way and it suited my needs and is very stable with the toddlerseat. Id be happy with your choice if your not totallt happy go check them out again Im sure the shop would let you exchange if you werent happy.
Goodluck!

I have the Valco Runabout Deluxe (bought in January this year - I'm not sure exactly how similar it is to your one) and I have found it really great. My only issue with it is that its very wide and can be difficult to get down certain supermarket checkout lanes but that is probably an issue with most 3-wheelers.
