    This pram is fantastic, folds like an umrealla stroller with all the benifets of a pram!

    Valco trimode jogger
    LOVE: The hood coverage, the ease of pushing, the handle bar goes up & down, great for off road, for a small pram its fold is quite good!
    HATE: nothing really

    other comments!

    Steelcraft Acclaim...I really wanted a 4 wheel pram and there isnt a lot of variety these days.

    LOVE: Almost every aspect, light, nice colour and easy to use.
    HATE: Occasionally it has a mind of its own and steers all wonky or maybe DD is a bit beefy these days

    we have a phil and teds sport in apple green!!

    LOVE:
    how easy to push it is, just glides along
    love the light weight steering ( i can rip a u-turn at rhe shops to avoid someone in seconds )
    love that its easy to fold
    love the colour
    love the double seat u can attach for number 2
    love the cocoon
    love the look

    DISLIKE:
    dont know if its just me being awkward but i have trouble unfolding it
    little bit to heavy
    the colour- marks easy
    that i cant use the basket underneath when its laying down flat

    comments:

    Glad you liked

    I forgot I also have a $30 stroller from Target and its my absolute fave, its one of those umbrella fold up things. So much easier for quick trips when its not safe for her to walk (shes very independant). As you can all see Im not very flash in my pram choices

    Baby Jogger City Elite

    We have a Baby Jogger City Elite 2010 model:

    Pro's: very easy to fold, LOVE the extra long hood thingy for shade, most of my mummy friends have envied that. Love the magnets that the flippy bits have (sunroof and side air vents). Love the TWO clear sunroof bits. ADORE the colour range (I got mine from the US). Love all the extra bits you can have.

    We have not used it for a new born so cannot (at this stage) comment from experience but it doesn't seem too soft for a new born providing the safety straps underneath are done up, again said with no newborn experience.

    I don't find it heavy to lift, but my other pram is heavier so

    I LOVE our accessories, we have the toddler seat and canopy and cannot wait to use them.

    I LOVE its all terrain suspension which is the ONLY reason I choose this over another brand.

    CONS: Exxy but on par with other good brands (cheaper if ordered from the USA got mine and quite a few accessories for under $1000 including shipping).

    We ordered from USA so we have NO warranty valid here in Austalia.

    It seems a little wider in its bum and doesn't fit through some supermarket checkouts and some clothing aisles.
