We have one and it's ok. I wouldn't buy it again, mainly because it's so expensive and in hindsight not worth the money.
Pro's:
- looks good,
- easy to steer,
- bassinette is a good size,
- seems to be well made.
- can have the seat on either way; so bub is facing you or not and it's still easy to steer
- comes with maintainence kit
- DS seems to like it
Con's:
- when the seat is upright it's too vertical, DS is forever sliding forward,
- the seat only has 3 positions- laying down, bolt upright and one about half way between the 2.
- the basket is annoying and too small/ hard to get things into,
- the rain cover is a bit of a PITA
- cant hang much of a bag on the handle bar as it will fall over
- the 2 seperate parts can be annoying, if you want to get on a bus for example. Cant collapse it without major effort (impossible on your own) meaning you have to wait for one of the low buses with handicap facilities
- we have to put the frame in the car first, due to our small boot, which means the seat has to go on the dirty ground. Yuk.
- accessories are REALLY exxy- the hood and seat cover sets are $200+, hate to think what it'll cost if we need a new tyre or something.
in hindsight we should've got the McLarren for 1/3 the price. Dont tell DF I said that though...
