    We went middle of the road and got the Dash. I liked the lighter weight of the Vibe (the top one) and the breaking mechanism, but didn't think those things were worth the extra money (about $150 extra). We found the brakes on the sport (base model) too awkward. We like the way the dash folds up and it has a handle which is good for lifting it in and out of the car.
    Best thing I reckon is to go into a shop and try out a few and see what you like about each model. Only bummer is that they are pretty expensive. The dash cost us about $650 I think? And the toddler seat was an extra $100 or $120 (?) - my folks gave that to us as a gift when P was born. And the UV/Bug cover was an extra $70. So it all adds up. But I am still glad we spent the dough.

    We got a Valco Double Delight. It cost $250 from a baby shop. It fits through standard doorways, it folds pretty flat when put down, weighs 12 kg, seats adjusts to any position between upright and fully layback, has 2 storage baskets, large protective hood, Newborn to 18kgs each side.
    I've only pushed it around the house with Harrison in it so far. It seems good so far. Harrison seems to like it, he goes into the baby room and sits in it pretty much everyday. At lease I shouldn't have anymore trouble getting him in the pram once bubs born, he hates his single pram.

    Good luck deciding.
