Looking for a new pram, what do you recommend?

[Calluna]

We're looking for a new pram (woohoo! Excitement! ).

Our criteria is:
-4 wheeler
-2 seater/ takes toddler seat
-both seats recline at least one needs to fully recline
- adjustable handlebars preferable

ETA- not interested in a side by side or inline pram, too wide and too long lol

We've looked at like the strider plus or valco quad with toddler seat. If you have one of these what do you think?

So what do you have?
Pro's & cons?
Cost?

Oooh what you doing with the bug?

Nothing beats our bugaboo so cant help sorry

[Calluna]

Hopefully selling it, I've offered it to a lady I met in a baby shop, if she doesn't want it (said she was really looking for a new one but would come and have a look) then I'll put it up in the buy and sell section.

I'm not a very experienced pram user, but we have the Baby Jogger City Select and it's great!
* It has seat and bassinet attachements and the option for two seats/bassinets/seat and bassinet.
* It is easy to fold up and unfold, and is relatively light.
* The baby can face you or away from you. DS faces me and I love being able to chat with him and get smiles.

The only thing I have to complain about is that the two emblem thingys on the side have been dinted (really soft aliminium) and we've already got a few little scratches on the legs. These don't effect the performance at all, I'm just a bit of a perfectionist.

When we bought it, it had just come onto the market (4 months ago). It was $900 + $200 for the bassinet. Well worth the money I think

Ive had 15 prams since having DS simply because im a full of addict, I would have to reccomend either a Maclaren double or the Strider plus. Love my strider, oh and if you decide to sell the bug, please PM me.

Raising Dancers- sorry forgot to mention we're looking for a one up one down style pram not the side by side ones.

I've already offered it to one lady but she's leaning more towards buying new, so if it falls through I'll let you know we are in QLD though and dont have the box is that a problem?

Nat82- thanks I'll check it out, are they available in shops or only online? I'd like to test drive one first...

LOL I am NOT pregga's, just thinking of the future, the bugaboo's going to keep losing value and I want to get the best I can for it. Should have thought about the whole second baby thing when buying it lol.

It depends on how old your eldest will be when the next one comes along. I love my bugaboo and have kept it - even though I have three little people 3yo and under. I carry the baby until they are about 4-6 months (at least - usually longer) and used the bug for the older one. Once the baby gets to the 4-6m mark, they can go in the normal seat of the bug and a skateboard attachment works great. If you have enough slings (or varying types) you can usually work out the sleeping part if they both decide to crash at once, but it really does depend on your needs.

P.S. I also have a twin pram - side by side.
