Peg-Perego Pliko P3

Pros
  • Lightweight
  • Easy to maneuver
  • Snack tray
Cons
  • Maximum weight of 45 pounds
  • Adult cupholder gets in the way
  • Small storage basket

The Peg-Perego Pliko P3 Classico offers a lot of options not included on most lightweight strollers, including a canopy to block the sun and rain and an attached snack tray. Parents love the appearance of the Pliko P3 Classico and many praise the available colors and patterns as well as the quality of the upholstery. The seat reclines to accommodate newborns or sleeping toddlers, and the handles extend to make the stroller easier to use for taller caregivers. Reviewers say this stroller offers a smooth ride, is easy to maneuver and folds up easily. On the downside, some say the storage basket is a bit small and difficult to access, while others call the adult cupholder "useless." A few reviewers also mention that the Pliko P3 Classico is hard to steer with just one hand, so it's not ideal if you'll be walking a dog or holding an older child's hand at the same time.

The most comprehensive review of the Peg-Perego Pliko P3 Classico comes from ConsumerReports.org, which includes the Pliko P3 Classico in its roundup of dozens of strollers. Strollers receive ratings on several factors, including ease of use, maneuverability and safety. The popular baby-gear book "Baby Bargains" has a large section on strollers, although ratings are given for brands as a whole, not for individual models. The Peg-Perego Pliko P3 Classico also earns a spot on About.com's list of the 10 best lightweight strollers. Owner opinions round out the overall consensus on the Pliko P3 Classico; more than 300 reviews for this model can be found at Buzzilions.com, which compiles reviews from several review sites. Viewpoints.com also has more than 40 reviews on this model.
