I'm using stokke for 10 months, if you go out most of the time will take MTR, stokke is a good one you can look into it. but if you need to take bus then i won't suggest, cause stokke have 2 parts.
i like stokke cause it is much higher then rest of the brand which you don't need to band down your body that much and your baby can breath more fresh air as well. it is also easy to move around on carpet too. cause i always see other mom hardly roll their stroller in chinese rest. as it is all carpet!

I have been using my combi for three years. Now my second child is using it so it is durable. My top priority is light weight and single hand open and close so I can take baby out myself and be able to get on taxis, buses, up stairs etc. Also use it for walks almost daily and it is easy to push with single hand too.

depends on what your activities are & where you intend to go with your bb. I had a used bugaboo bee which was great for going up/down sidewalks (shocks are very good) & using outside of HK but it was way too heavy for me to bring it out to run errands w/bb. I could barely lift it into the taxi trunk - but I'm quite petite so it depends on how tall/strong you are. I got a combi instead and love it - single hand open & close, lightweight,so convenient. Bugaboo requires both hands to close & you have to bend down which is a pain to do w/a bb strapped to your front or lots of groceries in tow. It also doesn't stand upright on it's own after you close it but the combi does.
If you drive everywhere bugaboo might be ok. We used the combi from 3 mths onwards.

Got combi for its single-hand use & lightweight since newborn It's been really handy & convenient for travelling too It works so well in HK where space is a common issue Definitely recommend it On a side note, thou my boy is not a pram kid it has also been such a great 'trolley' for bags/shopping bags
Hi there
I think I'll invest in the babyzen yoyo. It's brand new and quite pricey but the lightest and most compact (to cabin size!) one hand fold pram available at the moment. Mothecare sell the first model for $4k hk but its seat is only suitable for 6mths+. The newborn part of the pram is sold separately but not sure if its available in hk yet. I'll get a friend to post it to me from UK. It's not that much more to buy the 0-6mth part

Just found this online hk store that sells babyzen yoyo 0-6mth and 6mth+ in hk:
Ourbaby Online Shop
My baby is due end of march so might wait a bit longer to purchase but Friends in NYC and London rave about this pram for inner city living. I think it's a good investment for such convenience, including when travelling overseas

I looked at various brands... IMHO:
Bugaboo: Very nice design, very sturdy but can be a bit heavy if mummy is by herself
Combi: Very light, but personally it feels a little bit flimsy. Easy one hand fold/unfold
In the end I opted for a Chicco... sturdy, light-weight and easy one hand operation.
My decision factors are based on the fact that I may not always be with my wife when she brings it out. So a sturdy, light-weight easy to operate pram was a must...

vote for combi on this. i've got a combi premier miracle and it has been great. very easy to fold (with single hand) and its ard 7ish kg (if i remember correctly) so i can put it to the back of the car by myself. Also its v easy to adjust the incline so when my LO dozed off in it i can just quietly flattern the seat to almost flat within a second. also you dont need to take the seat out to change from rear facing to fwd facing (unlike bugaboo). the weakness of this stroller is that its abit wobbly and also the low position (so its not suitable for very tall couple) but since i dont really walk with my LO near the busy road side this wont be a big concern for me. so far loving the combi stroller!
forgot to mention, it really depends on what area you live in and what kind of activities you are doing with your baby. for e.g. bugaboo camelion is perfect for places like sydney where there are SO MUCH space but will be a terrible choice for a city like HK! in hk if you really want bugaboo then BEE is the best selection.
having used both these strollers and many others (maclarens, peg perego, baby jogger city select, stokke etc), think it depends on how you plan to use them. i bought the combi f2 during a weekend trip to macau since we opted not to bring our larger baby jogger city select out. at the time, i liked the combi f2 was super light weight, single hand fold and with the one bar handle (a must for umbrella strollers since i prefer strollers that only require one hand to push). it's ok, but the wheels aren't great- no suspension and gets caught on almost every little bump on the road, including getting of escalators- so don't really like using this stroller much. as for the bugaboo, neither of my sons like the feel of this stroller, thus wouldn't stay in them happily. this was same for the stokke stroller. if you're looking for a really solid lightweight, durable stroller, i suggest the babyhome emotion: http://www.amazon.com/BabyHome-Emot...=UTF8&qid=1421076467&sr=1-1&keywords=babyhome
it's from a company in barcelona and relatively new to market. the design and functionality are awesome. it has the best travel bag of any stroller i've ever used- packs into a backpack case. i bought this one in nyc and has been all over the world with the little ones and me.
