Steelcraft strider plus 4 OR Steelcraft Agile?

No I wouldnt think so then as it has a fairly big boot doesnt it??
If you need to the seat can be taken off and so can the wheels all very easily, so the frame itself is very light and flat when folded.

Ok, cool.. So the seat can be taken off to fold but doesn't have to be? I just wondered if I would get sick of taking it apart all the time, but if I don't have to that's another tick in my box I'm pretty sure it would fit in the boot..

Yip, we dont take it off usually but we have a territory so big boot, but then when all the kids are in the car we put the frame on a bike rack on the back so the seat comes off then.
It really is an awesome pram I think I should work for them because I rave about it to people when we are out and about and I get questions about it

I have been tempted to stalk people in the shops but have restrained myself so far lol...

If you like the Bugaboo, have you checked out the Quinny Buzz, similar in style. We just bought one the other day, it's in the sale in Baby Kingdom (I love it ). It comes in an awesome electric blue.
I liked the Strider as well, but as I was going round the shopping center, realised nearly everyone had one
Wanted to be a bit different.
Have fun pram shopping,

I really wanted the striver but ended with a mountain buggy swift.

I changed my mind because a friend told me to test them out on a day when I was pretty tired and found that I couldn't lift it without problems. Also,when we put it in our boot (ford sedan) it took up so much room it just wasn't practical if I needed it when I go shopping. And our boot is fairly large.

I did . I wanted to try before I brought . I have a Strider Plus 3. I LOVE it. I walk 1.5hrs plus most days and it is great. I got the 3 wheel so I can jog with it. I think it depends how you will be using it, if you are planning to do lots of walking I have recommend the strider plus 100%, if you are planning to just use it to do things like shopping and are going to be in n out of the car I would say maybe go something smalller and lighter. I put it in the car in 1 piece, it would drive me nuts taking the seats off. I love that the top seat is reversible. DD2 is so much happier facing me.

I have a strider plus 4, and its been a great pram for having 2 close together. I do take the top seat of to fit in the car, but normally leave the 2nd seat on, and its never been an issue having a 2part fold as its so easy. Its actually easier to take the main seat off than the 2nd.

Here are my pro's/our reasons for choosing it:
reversible front seat
both seats recline
good size shopping basket, even with #2.
accessories came with it.
I like the height of the seat. Some prams, the baby seems so low down.

Con's
heavy
wide (like a pp, Kmart always seems to be an issue, but thats about it)
ours has a bit of a wobble, but I'm not sure if thats because I had DD in the 2nd seat after she went past the weight limit. It is still fine in single mode though.

We have the kingfisher, and it is looking quite grubby. Trouble is, the fabric doesn't come completly off the frame to put it in the washing machine, so I'm going to have to give it a good scrub. I wish I had got pram liners, which would solve that issue.

Apart from the wobble, I do have a couple of issues with the frame, but this is only recent and its getting close to 2years old, and has been used practically everyday. But otherwise, I do love it.
