    Which one is the Vogue? Haven't seen that one.

    I'm limited as there is one baby shop here in launceston, so I have to go with what they have, unless I want to pay HUGE postage costs to get it from Vic.

    So general consensus is that they aren't bulky? Awesome.. I may have to try and talk DH into letting me get one.
    Postage for me (im in country vic) was only $25

    Yeah but things seem to double when there is water involved. My mum got some stuff sent to me via courier and it cost over $400.. ridiculous.

    I have a Maclaren Quest Sport, I got it about 6 months ago and love, love, love it!!! I never use the pram anymore. It is so light and easy to push. Also very easy to fold etc. I would recommend it!

    I saw this thread in passing the other night and had to go looking for it to reply
    Sheeeeeeeeeeeeesh Mel, postmuch?? it's on page 3 or 4 of all posts by Mel and it was only yesterday
    We got our Techno before we had DD she has used it almost every day since she was 5 days old. She slept in it for a few weeks, when she was in the throes of cot refusal and when we were in NZ for two weeks as she staunchly refused to sleep in the P&T portacot. It's light and compact, folds up like an umbrella stroller and you can flip it up or down while clutching bub in one hand (not sure what you do when you have three )
    Our friends originally recommended it on the basis that it was small enough to take on a plane. Other friends who bought Mountain Buggies or Bugaboos ended up buying a quest or a vogue because they were sick of the pram taking up half the car (and one friend had never put her pram in the car because she couldn't figure out how to take it down )
    Love it, highly highly highly recommended.
    ETA It's still in great shape and will last for another bub..... if we can ever afford to have one .....

    Cool, I think we are definitely going to get the quest sport, the store in launceston has some in stock (biege or grey) so I think I'm going to ring up tomorrow and buy one.. hehe
