Oh bugger, i didnt realise you needed it to recline.
Not sure if you want to know this but you can get the quinny zapp xtra that reclines and has a huge hood on it, its just new out though and im not 100% sure on price but i think its well over $300 (like closer to $500-big ouch). Have a google and check it out. I know its going to be a fair bit more than you wanted to spend but i felt i should let you know that its available
MummyofTerrors, I shopped around on the net and the ebay, and ebay is around the $360 mark So then I found a place near by in Glenhuntly that has them for $349 so I will see the guy today that I normally buy all my baby stuff from and see if he can come down on the price to around $320. So far he's quoted me $369.
Negrita & Stoked, the silver cross is very similar to the maclaren isn't it? The maclaren had this amazing expandable hood which I love (I am obsessed with big hoods if you haven't noticed already, lol). Not much price difference in the shops but ebay is not really an option now as I need the pram by Saturday I've left it far too late I think even though I have been thinking about getting a stroller for months
Kristi, I wish you didn't tell me about the new quinny!!! lol. Sorry I should have mentioned earlier I needed a recline option. I looked up the new one and it looks awesome, but, finding it will be an issue as I don't know who sells them and more importantly, the price is a bit much.....bugger! I've already got a great pram that will see DS through til he's 3 or 4 but I need a light one to travel with and for summer time when it's hot and I don't want to be pushing my heavy pram around. The BJ already is pretty dear so I don't want to spend a fortune on a stoller too. My DF is already screwing up his face at the $300 mark!! haha. I told him the stroller won't be more than $200-$250, lol.
Thanks so much ladies for all your help, you have been awesome!!
Miss B- i know the glenhuntly store you talking about i used their price to get $340 from my local store xoxo
its shocking ebay ctually wants alot more then what stores are selling them for
the ebay price has actually dropped too
I am also searching for a stroller too.... after buying a 3 wheeler (which was great when I needed the bassinet) and then another one off gumtree (which is just horrid to steer since a plane trip) and then another off deals direct (which I sold on gumtree because it wasn't what I wanted) and being given a cheapy kmart stroller.......
WORD OF ADVICE: can I just say, buy the Mclaren if that's what you want - it works out waaaaaay cheaper to buy one good one that you will use rather than the four prams/strollers that I've bought/been given and now looking for a 5th!!
Hey Cass, thanks hun! I did buy a McLaren, the vogue one and I loooooooove it. You're right MummyOfTerrors, it's awesome! We spent $340 but it was money well spent. We took it up to QLD and it was so good to steer, fold and the wheels are awesome in terms of suspension. DS loved the 'big boy' stroller!
