Ride for the Little Boy

Alvin wants the Maclaren XLR for the little boy
… more spacious and seems more comfortable than the XT. Initially, his choices were Quinny and Bugaboo Bee but the two are very expensive compared to Maclaren and I also want a light weight stroller that the little boy can use from birth up to maximum weight of 15kg.
He already checked online reviews regarding Maclaren and he is quite satisfied… even after the Maclaren’s product recall worldwide. Honestly, the recall is not our primary concern since Maclaren already gave hinged safety cover to resolve the issue.
I also canvassed in some stores and so far the cheapest store is the one that is giving 15% off for XLR 2009 while others are only giving it at 10% off. We were also informed that Maclaren is regulating the prices of their products and that they are only allowed to display the 10%off.
We are so tempted to buy now… or should I wait a little more time? Even if 2010 will be released soon, I don’t think there will be much difference on functionality or even in the price since the 2008 XLR is just $30 cheaper compared to 2009 XLR.
*With regard to stroller and cot for the little boy, Alvin is the one who will be deciding… me? I am the one who will scout for the cheapest price online and in-store. That’s why I don’t have the time to read about this relacore thing on the market. Feeling busy, huh!![]()
