- A guided tour of the 2012 Honda CR-VThe Honda CR-V's popularity is not in question. Consistently one of the best-selling (if not THE best-selling) compact SUVs year in and year out, the CR-V has also been a steady reviewer favorite. At the end of 2011, the latest iteration of this model landed in showrooms. We spent some time with it ourselves, and can say without hesitation that the CR-V […]
- Why you shouldn't diet like a celebrityWhile researching our report on the best weight-loss programs, we learned that the key to keeping weight off is making sustainable, long-term changes. If you don't address -- and adjust -- the habits that put the weight on in the first place, it'll just come right back. Still, it's hard to resist the lure of celebrity diets, plans that promise […]
- Facebook's new Timeline and Open Graph apps: How to protect your privacyLove it or hate it, if you're a Facebook user, the new past-sharing visual Timeline (which replaces your profile page) is in your future. Timeline's bringing big-mouthed friends to the party, too, in the form of "Open Graph" apps. These apps can automatically post your non-Facebook online activities onto your Facebook Wall, so if you list […]
- When it comes to tech, it's cool to be practicalCovering consumer electronics means wading through a lot of "ooh, shiny!" devices and "game-changing" innovations, many of which quickly fall by the wayside, replaced by something shinier and cooloer. That's why it's nice to see that some companies are looking to harness technology in a more meaningful way, thinking less about t […]
- House plants you can't killEven with the pleasantly warm weather this week in New York City (thanks global warming), it's hard not to long for a little green right about now. With my notoriously black thumb, I typically shy away from growing houseplants and instead anxiously await the sprouting of my neighbors spring bulbs. Not this year. Intrigued by Home Depot's money back […]
- Phish of the day: Beware tax-season email scamsIf you've noticed an uptick of spam in your junk mail folder lately, you're not alone. Scammers go into overtime around the holidays and into tax season, aiming to trick you into forking over personal information. These email sneak-attacks are called "phishing" and it's nothing new. What is new this year is that a lot of the bogus em […]
- A new and (p)interesting way to shop onlineJust a year ago when I was moving into my first apartment, my cousin sent me an invite to a site she thought could help me shop for my new digs: Pinterest. I will admit: I played around with it, and I just didn't get it; I was overwhelmed by images and I found the interface cluttered. She said I was missing out on something great, and now I'm eati […]
- Unsafe car seats and tires recalled; and mispackaged contraception packs scare consumers againSeveral recalls this week affect the safety of your ride, including two large child car seat recalls, one tire recall and two vehicle recalls.

- Beauty beware: Hepatitis risk at nail salons and barbershopsI'm a do-it-yourselfer when it comes to nail care, preferring to shape and paint my own talons instead of paying someone else to do it. Apparently, my frugal ways may do more than save me money -- it might also save my health. Nail salon and barbershop patrons may be at risk for hepatitis infection if the tools commonly used -- such as nail files, nail […]
- Are you buying a big-screen TV for the big game?Over the years, the Super Bowl has grown from just being a game for all the marbles at the end of the NFL season to a near-universal day of celebration and parties that even non-fans can enjoy. Sure there's the spectacle of the game itself, but watching all of those "can you top this" commercials has grown into its own national pastime. And no […]
- Hands-on with four good, cheap new carsI get to drive a lot of different cars throughout the year, and they run the gamut from Powerball-winner hardware to basic, affordable transportation. Sure, the glitzy stuff is a lot of fun, but some of the best new cars I've had the opportunity to try are also among the least expensive. This is good news if you want to buy a new car but have a modest […]
- Child seat belt safety: When to transition out of a boosterParents might breathe a sigh of relief when their children no longer need a bulky child car seat or booster, but they shouldn't exhale just yet. Many young children who use adult seat belts are improperly secured because of ill fit, finds a study by the University of Michigan.read more […]
- Counting calories: Of course, there's an app for that...Actually, there are hundreds of apps and websites to help you count calories: the ones you are burning and the ones you are consuming. If you're turning to technology to keep your balance in check, read these user reviews below. ConsumerSearch found six women who have enlisted their computers and mobile devices (and have been doing so for at least six m […]
- Inspired vegetarian recipes to chase away the winter bluesIn the dead of winter, with greenmarkets either closed or offering very limited selections of produce, it's all too easy to think that healthy, meat-free meals are out of reach. But you can still find a variety of veggies that are either in season or available year-round. With a mind toward that healthy-eating New Year's resolution, we scoured the […]
- Should Google's new privacy policy worry you?"Don't be evil." Google's unofficial mantra sounds pretty noble, right? But some say that Google has lost its guiding light in the wake of some recent changes to the company's privacy policy and Terms of Use. What's all the hubbub about? Why do some think it's the end of privacy as we know it, and others just shrug their sh […]
- Can you trust online reviews?The issue of fake user reviews is nothing new. We blogged about it back in 2009 after a Wall Street Journal article exposed the practice by certain companies of having employees post favorable write ups to user-review sites, such as Amazon.com. Now, The New York Times has shed some light on something new, yet still the same: offering real customers financial […]
- DOT tries to put the "fair" in airfare pricingEarlier this week I booked a flight from New York to Miami. Even though JetBlue only flies to the nearby Fort Lauderdale, I couldn't pass up the advertisement in an e-mail sent to me: Book Today, $89 each way from JFK. When I went online to look up fares, I did not see that fantastic rate; instead the fares were through the roof with the flights I want […]
- A sneak peak: the International Home and Housewares ShowLast week we attended the press preview for the International Home and Housewares Show.

At the preview we got a sneak peak of some interesting new product launches, below are a few noteworthy ones. read more […]

- Where to mount a plasma or LCD TVSo you've picked out the perfect flat-screen LCD TV or plasma TV. You've even picked out the perfect TV wall mount to hang it on a wall. But have you picked out the perfect place to put your new TV? Experts -- ourselves included -- often wax poetically about the outstanding picture quality of top-performing TVs. However, the truth of the matter is […]

With the birth of our first daughter eight years ago we purchased a big bulky Eddie Bauer stroller. It was so heavy and hard to fold that we ended up getting a Metrolite stroller when she was six months old. Now with our second child, we didn’t bother with the big systems and opted to go straight for the Metrolite. Best choice we ever made. Has all the features of the larger strollers with the light weights and ease of use that parents prefer. A+ product.

This is the absolute best stroller that I have ever used (and we have used a lot). Compared to our other heavy, bulky Peg Perego Venezia, this stroller is a dream. It is easy to assemble out of the box and ready to use. It is so simple to open and close and the latch keeps it closed so it can even stand up on the floor while closed. It is light and fits easily into the trunk of our small sedan. I couldn’t fit an entire load of groceries in the trunk while the stroller is in there….but why would I bring the stroller to the grocery store?! It is narrow, and easy to pick up with one hand. The large, rubber, puncture proof wheels are awesome – we have walked through mud, and puddles and all over the place with no problems. It is like pushing nothing at all – totally effortless. The basket is large, the cups are great. It has 3 reclining positions which is very useful for an on the go nap, or diaper change. The 5 point harness is useful and actually works, unlike the Peg Perego Aria which slips out easily.
Overall, this stroller is a must. We use it every day, for walking outside (several miles a day) and at the mall, and the beach, etc. If you have been dissatisfied with other strollers, this is the one to get.
Update July 2010: This stroller is still going strong and works as perfectly as it did the day we got it!

This stroller has all the features we were looking for: lightweight, compact, large wheels for easy NYC sidewalk manuvering, large and easily accessible basket, one hand push, cupholders. It is a far better stroller than those cost two/three times its cost. Love it.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this stroller, it’s not as bulky as most travel system strollers. It’s light and easy to manuver – more like an umbrella stroller, but with more features! It’s suprisingly small. The colors are so much better then the picture shows. If fact when my sister saw it, after we got it – she said “the pictures don’t do it justice”
It was easy to assemble. It took me about 30 minutes, and my husband wasn’t around. I love this stroller and the matching infant car seat.

I used a Graco Quattro stroller with my first child, but I got so tired of hefting that 30 pound monster into the trunk everytime I needed it. Plus, it took up the whole trunk of my mid-sized sedan. The Metrolite stroller is wonderful! It has all the necessary features that I liked on the Quattro (cup holders, large basket, holds snug ride carseat, child tray, full recline, large canopy, 1-handed steering), but it is 10 pounds lighter. Plus, the adjustable handle is great for people of different heights and it makes the stroller take up less room in the trunk, so I don’t have to remove it when I go grocery shopping. I love this stroller!
