Would go for Bugaboo Bee, MacLaren or Quinny Zapp. All good quality, durable, easy to fold, not too heavy, etc.

I would wait till you get to HK to buy the stroller. There are many types available and you will get a better feel of what is right for you and your family. I personally found the selection to be pretty good but I am not sure of how the prices compare to those from where you are from. Anyhow, I'd wait if I were you.

it's much more expensive here tho i.e bugaboo bee costs 370 pounds in the UK but here it's more like 470. You also have to wait for up to 2 months if they don't have the stroller you want in stock.

I bought the carseat from bumps to babes for around 1600 and the stroller from wingonet. for around 1700. Those were the cheapest prices I could find. I did find a cheaper combo on the USA ebay for about 2325 HKD total (carseat and stoller) but the shipping costs make it the same price as in Hong Kong. Hope that helps.

hi celine....i have a Combi-Urban stroller which is a japanese brand. i also did quite a bit of research before picking this one...it combines the quality of a light-weight, easy to fold(one-hand) plus comfortable and sturdy features that were imp to me....plus the seat has a full recline as compared to any umbrella stroller like mc laren.......i have used it extensively with my son since the last 8 months and i have had no probs so far......i mostly travel by public transport/.u could check other links on geobaby too on this topic/

I do recommend Combi, popular in HK, and China.
Its a Japanese brand, light weight baby stroller you can fold in one hand while you hold your baby in other hand.
Not only that, if you fold it, it can stand byitself.
So, you can hold your baby in one hand, fold the stoller in other hand, let it stand while you put your baby in baby bjorn baby carrier.
Maclaren is also popular, but not perfect for newborn, I guess.
HK is not for baby stroller user, so many steps, not barrier free.
Combi also has full flat stroller, some are cheap as they have a manufacture in mainland China.
===> after I posted this, I saw Mushi also recommended this one.
I had 2 of Combi, and am happy with it.Last edited by Honuparadise; 05-15-2009 at 10:37 AM.

I am using zapp and I love it. Very easy to maneuver and it is good if you are going with the maxi cosi car seat for new born, otherwise, this stroller is only suitable for baby who able to sit up by himself. Since we always bring along a backpack, the lack of storage is not a main concern for us.
