    Cheers minivini. The baskets no biggie, I have two older packhorses, oops I mean children who can carry their own crap around. Nor am I a huge nappy bag user. I'm actually going to buy the pram and the bassinette separately as it works out cheaper - but you probably got a good deal. Might go and have a look at BZD.

    Kell I promise I did look and request one a few weeks ago, but I figured you guys were just busy.

    Thanks Kat.

    I was tossing up between the Valco Ion and the Strider Agile - similar price, weight etc

    We really liked both but ended up going with the Strider partly because it came in bright green (seriously...that was a strangely compelling reason...I'm blaming pregnancy brain) but mostly because we wanted a travel system and using the Ion with a capsule involved buying adapters etc etc which I didnt likw. Also, the Strider had somewhere for the kid to put his or her feet when we use it as a stroller...I thought the Valco was a bit lacking in that area...but obviously that's a tiny thing - definitely the Valco has a massive hood which suits you perfectly. Valco is also an Australian brand which is a plus too
