I'm not a big fan of the 3 wheelers either I ended up getting a 4 wheeler, reverse handle Steelcraft Acclaim for $250.

I had a list of wishes which were..
* Light weight (some prams are really heavy like over 15kg) and easy to fold so I can lift and fold it easy at the shops.
* Reverse handle so I could see baby then turn baby around when he she's awake(I found it difficult with my other 2 when the handle was fixed, the kids got bored looking at me LOL.
* Lay back for newborn (alot of 3 wheelers you need to buy a seperate bassinett attachement as they have bucket seats.
* lockable wheels particularly with reverse handle to stop the swiveling etc (I found the Acclaim has 8 wheels so they're alot easier to steer).
* Basket underneath for shoping etc.
* Handle that is a bar so I could hang my satchel baby bag on (just a personal preference though).
* Easy to clean, washable fabric preferably removable for spills.
* I love the cup holder (I had one with my stroller) but I think you can buy them to attach if end up with a pram that doesn't have one already.

I guess it's a very personal thing because it depends on your needs and your tastes, I'm a shorty too but I'm the one that pushes the pram 99% of the time so I thought it was more important I got the pram I liked. I tend to walk the kids to school some times so it needed to suit the terain, And since I have 2 kids already I wanted it to be able to fit in the boot without taking up too much space. It took me months to decide on the pram I liked good luck!!
