[quote=Anonymous]Even back in the early '90s there was an "it stroller"; if you lived in Upper NW, Bethesda or CC, you had to have an Aprica, not a Graco. To some extent, yes, the Aprica was worth it -- it was lighter and easier to fold -- but we all knew it was really about status. When we had our youngest in the late '90s the Aprica was dead; you had to have a Maclaren. We got one because the old Aprica, which had been through 2 babies, was such a wreck and probably needed to be quarantined as a germ haven. Status aside, the Maclaren was a revelation: incredibly lightweight and easy to use -- definitely worth the price. [/quote]
