Thanks for the tip! Yeah, it's too big for her (she's 5'4"), but good to know you're seeing deals like that. I'll probably start looking more seriously next month, as I'm thinking of a fun Xmas surprise.
Of course, then we run into the problem of storage, but we'll tackle these things one at a time.
