Relax PP! You still have lots of time!
I went to Target tonight, two different ones actually, and they both had it there in a box for sale, but not one on display. I wanted to play with it and couldn't. <sniff> |

| We love our Peg Peregos. We have the Roma and a double stroller. They are both awesome. Seriously one of the best baby products we bought. |

Mike called around last night and found one Target in the area (not really NEAR us) that had ONE left, so he ran out and got it  |

| I got my ellipsa at babies r us . They have it in a bronze/tan pattern (not online yet). It is the coolest! It is very much like the graco quattro but the basket does not spring down on it. The only downside I see so far is that the stroller is very large and heavy and on the one I got the canopy on the car seat is way too small- it is like a 1/2 of a canopy...I searched 3 of the target stores before going to babies r us near me and they only had the display- none actually for sale yet. That one is in a black/light blue pattern. For some reason the canopy on the carseat with that one is a full size canopy...I have pictures but I don't know how to link them to this post... |

I question if the person who designed the entire middle of the stroller seat cushion and the insides of the carseat cushion to be WHITE has ever had a child of their own....  |

| LOL, I hadn't thought about that. It's washable, I'm sure! Anyway, I love it, love it, love it. |

| I registered for the same stroller we saw it at Target and it was the only one we both agreed was cool looking and was easy to push. My DH is tall and this one was tall enough for him and light enough for me. It is still not advertised on the company website but I saw it in fit pregnancy magazine in a tan and blue color. |

I hear ya on that one sistah! Scott is tall and I guess I am too at almost 5'7". I just bought an umbrella stroller that's useless because it kills my back. I have to hunch over the damn thing. I think I'm going to buy those extrender handles, but if I would have had some foresight, I would have just used the additional $20 towards a better umbrella stroller that I didn't have to lean over. I don't get it either. What is the average height of parents today?? These things are made for children to push! |

| LOL, yeah, I hadn't even thought about height--we just try stuff out. I'm 5'9 and Mike's 6', so I'm sure that without even realizing it, the height did make a difference for us, too! |

| Hi - I'm glad I'm not the only person obsessed with strollers! Parents mag had a 2 page layout in the front of March issue about the Ellipsa Stroller & Embrace Infant Seat - even says "Check out special offer at Evenflo.com" - I went to the site and there was nothing! I have the Graco Quattro Tour which looks very similar & I love it. I'm about to pop out baby #2 and am not excited about a huge double stoller! This one looks very cool! Although my favorite feature on the Graco is the retracable basket - a great idea when baby is laid all the way back sleeping! Good luck! |

Thanks! I saw that advertisement in (was it Parent's or Parenting?) this past week and I had to laugh, we snatched ours up before anyone knew about the thing!
I have looked at the Quattro, since everyone seems to compare it to the Ellipsa, but it's not the same. When you get them both on the floor and steer them, the Ellipsa is so much sturdier and moves a lot easier. It is the ultra-cool stroller! |

Hi
I am writing due to the Evenflo Ellipsa, if you log on to www.evenflo.com, there is a section on the left side that says test drive the Evenflo Ellipsa. Just thought, you would like to know.

Thanks, yeah, NOW they're everywhere! I really, really like it, but we haven't gotten to try it with the BABY in it yet! |

| I just ordered this travel system from Target.com. I've been really happy with previous evenflo products. I'm really excited about this one - I hope it lives up to its hype. Target just reduced the price to $199 and right now you can get free shipping from Target.com as well as a 10% off code from Target. If you go to the Evenflo web site you can print a $20 rebate form from Evenflo. I also made sure if I don't like it I can return it to a Target store. So now it will come right to my door. Not bad. |
