Bugaboo + Carry You = True Stroller Love

I was once a stroller whore. At one point, I counted 12 strollers that had been in my life. And that wasn't even counting the umbrella quickies tossed in airport lobbies the world over.

I knew I was ready for a commitment when I got my Bugaboo, and indeed it was true love. But if there was one thing, one little thing, that caused my eye to wander, it was all those cheap tarty strollers with their sexy little consoles. How could I not feel a pang when I had nowhere convenient to place my keys, sunglasses and frappucino? And had I made the right choice for my son? The other kids had snack trays, and all he had was a lousy foam rubber safety bar to gnaw on.

Enter the Carry You Siena Stroller Console. Made for strollers like the Bugaboos and the Zoopers, and many other with bumper bars, it is an answer to my prayers. A marvel of velcro and nylon, this nifty little snack and drink holder attaches very securely to the bumper in five seconds flat and holds a sippy cup (steadied by adjustable velcro straps), a couple of pieces of fruit and a bag of cheerios no problemo. It also keeps my son from gnawing on the foam, which was actually doing some damage. Better he should gnaw on the fruit!

If I am feeling selfish, the Carry You Siena can be mounted on the parent bar and hold all my stuff. But I don't want to share. I'm going to order my own console. I'm considering the Milan. Both the Siena and Milan Carry You Stroller Consoles can be found at Let's Go Strolling. MWS readers enter the code MWSCYS in the comments when you checkout and receive free shipping on the Sienna. Hurry - this offer expires June 16. But my love for my Bugaboo, I'm glad to report, is still going strong.
