I bought this stroller after having major problems with my Peg Perego Venezia Stroller.(See my review: "http://www.epinions.com/content_223560896132"
We were going on a trip and I didn't want to deal with the very many frustrating issues I've had with the Venezia from day one. I also knew the Pliko folded up a little more compactly and was lighter to carry than the Venezia. My best friend raved about her Pliko and it had great reviews so I decided to give it a try.

I bought the Pliko online and couldn't wait to get it out of the box when it arrived. It took me 10 minutes to put it together and has continuously delivered on every expectation I had ever since.
There is a reason this stroller has so many good reviews. It is very easy to manoeuvre even with one hand, my toddler is very comfortable in it and the canopy is massive! The canopy even has a translucent window at the back so you can see what your child is doing but not transparent to allow hard sun rays in. The backrest reclines so easily you won't worry about waking your sleeping munchkin.
One little negative is the basket underneath can be hard to get things in and out of but not a major problem since I hang a bag or two over the handles. (not heavy bags)
I love that the snack tray actually clips in and that it can be un-clipped to get your child in and out of the stroller. Especially in the winter when the kids are wearing dirty boots, this eliminates having to lift your child up and into the stroller saving the fabric and their clothes.
The Peg Perego Primo Viaggio car seat snaps right into the stroller. I haven't used it with the infant seat because my daughter was out of it by the time we purchased the Pliko but I'm happy to know with the next child the car seat I already have is compatible.

While my daughter is too young to figure out how the rear step works, I suspect I won't be purchasing a double stroller for the next baby but using this one when carting the two of them around. (She prefers to walk now).

The adult drink holder works but I still wish for a design that would allow more than one cup holder and a place to put your keys or cell phone. However, I wouldn't consider that exclusion enough to not buy this stroller.

If you're looking for a stroller with a reversible handle buy a used one and invest the money in the Pliko Classico.
It's all you'll need once your child reaches 5-6 months of age.
