~$1,299list price at the last catalog update

What it does well

Front and rear suspension can be set separately for uneven ground
12 in rear wheels, larger than the 9.8 to 10.6 in rears on Peg Perego's full-size strollers
Bassinet and stand in the price, which the cheaper Silver Cross Reef 2 sells separately
One-hand fold with the seat on, which Peg Perego does not claim for the Ypsi or Veloce

What it gives up

24.7 lb; the adjustable suspension adds weight over the plain Aptica
Basket is rated to only 11 lb despite the all-terrain pitch
$1,299 and the adapter is a further $49
Folded at 35.4 in wide in Inglesina's labelling

What you lift

24.7 lb as Inglesina weighs it.

The first months: Bassinet in the box. Inglesina: included open-up bassinet approved for overnight sleep, 10.8 lb; base reclines up to 10 degrees.
