Orbit Baby Travel Collection G2: Easy Rider

My first thought looking at this was how does a stroller cost $1,200?? Then again, I bought the Bugaboo (which was not cheap) and this Orbit has features that cover all of the annoying issues that had. There are two main components: the base ($500) and the seat ($440), which also doubles as a car … Continue reading “Orbit Baby Travel Collection G2: Easy Rider”
