The best all-round compromise
To begin with the conclusion, we are very happy with our purchase. There are no obvious disadvantages to the Micralite Fastfold product. Over the past 12 months it has performed very well for us and is still in great condition. It is well-designed, versatile and comfortable for both parents and baby.

When our baby was born we had certain criteria for our stroller, in no particular order. (1) It must able to handle urban bumps and parks. (2) It must be light enough to carry up two flights of stairs to our apartment. (3) It must allow us to clip in a Maxi Cosi Cabrio newborn baby car seat. (4) It must allow one-handed operation and be small enough when folded to fit in the back of a compact car. (5) It must be comfortable and have some luggage-carrying capacity.

Gradually we whittled down the candidates. My sister has a Bugaboo and she found it too much to carry up stairs. When we looked at the Bugaboo, Stokke Xplory and Quinny Buzz models used by our friends we did feel they were all too big and heavy. On the other hand we didn't like the rattly little wheels and the bumpy ride of the umbrella strollers like the Maclarens and Quinny Zapp that are now ubiquitous in Tokyo. Another problem is that we saw that many strollers simply don't fold easily, especially with one hand. I didn't want to be removing seats and bits and pieces to fit it in the back of the car.

So we tried the Micralite in a shop, liked it and ordered it. It has been great. Note that this model is NOT suitable for use on its own for small babies - you will need an infant seat. Micralite sells its own infant carrier but for the first six months we used a Maxi Cosi car seat for babies that can be taken out of the car and clipped straight on to the using with two little arms (sold separately). When the baby was old enough we stopped using the Maxi Cosi - great product by the way - and switched to the standard Micralite mesh seat. (The mesh seat rolls up neatly out of the way when not needed). There is not much adjustment in angle of the seat, but our baby doesn't seem to mind and often sleeps in the stroller. The underseat shopping carrier mesh is fairly large, but you will have to squat down to put stuff in it, which can be fiddly. The brake is a long bar that is very easy to flip on and off with your toe.

The included rain cover is solidly built and nicely tailored to the stroller and packs down to a surprisingly small size. The stroller's hood, as another reviewer noted, is not large enough to protect the occupant from the sun but then integrating such a sunshade into the hood would make it very large. We bought a Protect-A-Bub shade which fits the Micralite well, is very adjustable and can be removed when not needed. When winter came we bought the footwarmer which is like a sleeping bag that fits into the seat is clearly warm and also appears to be showerproof, although the rain cover protects it when attached.

In motion the stroller is very smooth. The stroller can easily be steered with one hand. The big wheels at the back make it easy to pull backwards up steps or kerbs and it handles turf and rough ground reasonably well. It is very good in small spaces. of which there are many in this city. Because the Micralite's widest part is at the front it is easy to gauge whether it will fit through a gap and we have few problems even in crowded Tokyo.

Folding is a knack (push stroller away then pull it back to get wheels aligned and straight, put on brake, lean down, push lever with thumb and pull sharply up) but once you have it you can store the Micralite in a very small space and it will stand upright by itself. If there is stuff in the shopping carrier (such as the rain cover) it will not lock in the folding position but if there is only a small amount of luggage it will still stand reasonably upright. It is, as advertised, very light, which makes it easy to manhandle when necessary.

When folded the Micralite fits in the boot of our Toyota Vitz/Yaris, which is not a large space. If necessary the wheels can be detached very quickly (stroller, not Toyota) as they are held on by squeeze-lock fasteners and we have done this on occasion when we wanted to put in more luggage.

Finally this stroller has rarity value - we have only seen two others in a year in Japan. It looks very smart although this wasn't a purchasing criterion for me and I'm certain the baby is not bothered.

Works as described
This monitor works just as the de ion says. All or none of the sets including the transmitter work on battery or ac power (3 ac cords included). None of the units automaticaly switch to battery power (during unexpected power loss)when the ac cord is pluged into the unit. My first set had a defective parental hand set. Second set works great. Amazon paid return shipping. Over all I am satisfied with the unit and enjoy the voice/sound activation feature.

NOTE: Test your unit before you leave your child alone with it!

Snug as a Bug in a Rug
I bought this after my daughter complained she was cold. Couldn't blame her; It was 35 degrees out. The weather shield allows her to stay comfortable while I stay dedicated to my workouts.
If you can handle the expense the payoff is worth it. Easy enough to install and provides extra comfort when the weather becomes chilly or extra windy.

It's like having a pediatrician in your cupboard
I am a pediatrician in Colorado and I have used "the baby bistro box" to help new moms and dads navigate many of the complex food mysteries in the first few years of life. It is well organized, easy to read and has great pointers for many of the basic rules of nutritian that our grandmothers/mothers passed on to us without us knowing. There are many "do's and don'ts" in the first few years with food and diet and the bistro box has cobbled together many of the key ones I use for my well visits in the office. Great gift for new moms.
