What is the best pushchair you have had and why?

Question

From the UK only please, pushchairs or travel systems.

Answer 1

think i said about my buggy to you yesterday. anywayz i'll go agn. my oh so sexy and swish (yes i kno im going a bit over bord, but i just used it agn 2day n the owner isnt evn born yet) buggy, urban detour, black, mothercare £159.99 is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO kewl. found out the front wheel also locks! amazing...lol. its a 3 wheeler incase u was wondering. one thing, its a little hard to fold back up when u wana put it away, but im sure that'll get better over time as i use it more.

Answer 2

I don't think any of them are perfect! I'm on my second, and they both had there pro's and con's.

I had a Mothercare Atlan travel system to start, which was fabulous all the while I wanted to leave my daughter in the car seat. It folded easily, handled well, was light, looked not bad, but it didn't umbrella fold and once I started to use the seat, the seat adjustment was a real pain.

I then decided I wanted a pushchair, and in the end opted for a Techno XT. I'm quite pleased with it, although maybe the handles are a little tall if you're a little on the short side, and the shopping basket is teeny and difficult to access when seat is reclined. I don't think its the most appealing looking pushchair.

I'd like to combine the 2, then I'd be happy!! I'll be interested to hear what everyone else has to say.

Answer 3

I would definitely recommend the Urban Detour travel system exclusive to Mothercare. Its a 3 wheeler pushchair with detachable car seat for when baby is really small-up to 9kg. Very easy to manoeuvre and easy to access all terrain. Love it!!

Answer 4

Ive got a silver cross and its great its done him from newborn and he still fits in it cos it goes into a pushchair as well as a pram hes now 14 months old and there's still lots of growing space

Answer 5

my best pushchair is the graco travel system its very easy to push with a large shopping bag underneath it is also very easy to fold up and down and with the car seat it just clips on the top without any struggle at all.

Answer 6

ive had 5 pushchairs and my son is only 17mths old coz i live up 4 flights of stairs, but my best pram has to be silver cross or the one i have now which is a jeep roadster

Answer 7

I have the Mamas and Papas pramette and love it. It is stylish and goes from a pram to a buggy. It is quite heavy when folded to lift but for pushing is nice and light and eay to manouver. They have just bought out some great new colours. The only mistake I made was buying the matching car seat. My son is 3 months old and I have never put it on the pram wheels. I wish I had just gone for the lightest car seat I could find as it is quite heavy to carry him in now

Answer 8

only you could decide that. it all depends on peoples own preferences. do u drive or walk... go on the buses? each pushchair has its own touchs but are different for everyone. personally i use a lightweight stroller with a small shopping basket underneath by graco as i walk alot and find it convenient. x

Answer 9

Maclaren quest easy to put up and down, doesn't take up much room in boot of car and very practical. Ive also had mamas&papas travel system but this is not so good if you have a car as takes up loads of room and is not very easy to put up and down one handed(while holding baby).

Answer 10

I've had two Maclarens and found them really good. They are light, easy to put up and down and fairly hard wearing. At least you can get on a bus with them unlike those great big 4x4 things.
