    we dont have one, but i have seen them around the park and they look gorgeous! i saw that they were on special ATM too for $699...

    looks like there is good room underneath for storage too.

    I don't have one either, but they look really nice.

    Soulful- As far as I can tell the differences with the bugaboo are:

    the price tag (Bugaboo more exxy)!!
    Bugaboo has a seperate bassinett, from what I can tell this pram does not have that option. (But I could be wrong)

    I'm struggling to find anywhere that stocks this pram! I'm curious to have a bit of a push and compare to other prams. Has anybody seen this around in Melbourne?

    With regards to the Bassinnet option - it actually does have the basinnet included in the price, which is also great!

    soulful - I bought a bootiq cot, and if you ring the igc customer number they'll tell you who stocks bootiq products in your area. ph:# 1300 809 526

    The Bootiq is a brand newie so it will be hard to find reviews. I can't post a link but PM me if you want a discussion link on the Bootiq from a pram review website.

    Thumbs up

    Hi there!

    Not sure if anyone is still looking for a Bootiq Kooper but I have one and it is great! We're just using the bassinet at the moment and it is lovely and cushy for our bub and he often has really good sleeps in it.

    There are heaps of pros for this pram:
    bassinet included
    soft lining
    looks great!
    easy to put up and down
    good size under pram storage
    easy to adjust handle height
    and plenty more!

    the only cons would be:
    plastic at the top of the handle which scratches easily, but doesn't affect use at all
    no rain cover/ sunshade included
    having people (mums!) look jealously at you as you pass them in the shopping centre!

    One of the mums in my mothers group has the bugaboo and the bootiq bassinet is far more comfy for my bub and she (the other mum) always wishes she had mine!

    I got mine on sale at babies galore about 3 months ago for $599 - bargain!

    I had a push of the Bootiq Kooper pram at Babies Galore. And I really like it but dh like the Strider better so we will probably get that

    yeah, the strider is really good. especially if you get the baby capsule that goes with it. The only plus the bootiq has over it is that it's back wheels aren't as wide.

    Even though I love my bootiq I do sometimes have pram envy when I see striders!

    I HAVE ONE!!!!!
    It is Fan freak'n tastic!!! It is gorgeous to look at, easy to push a breeze to turn as has all the features I was looking for!!! I'D HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE!!!! I paid $459 for mine as Babies Galore were selling them off (as they no longer stock them) go onto bubsngrubs website they sell them and postage isn't outragous either... We had planned to buy it through them then found it at BG so got it there!
