Creaping over a bit early to ask about prams...


Hello ladies. Hope you don't mind me sneaking over a little early to ask a question. Feel like I'm outgrowing 2nd tri and reckon the ladies further on than me will be better places to help.

I need some help girls. We went pram shopping yesterday and it was a nightmare! I thought it would be easy but nothing really fitted the bill. I want something fairly light, EASY to fold, pref smallish and with option for a carrycot.

We liked the quinny buzz but it doesn't fold that small and only folds with the seat on in the forward facing position. The city jogger was so easy to fold but looked horrid with the carrycot/car seat attached and can't parent face. Icandy strawberry is pretty but so expensive and I'm not sure any better than the quinny esp considering it'd be around £200 more. Also saw the oyster but prefer the buzz. Going in search of a mamas and papas to look at the zoom and sola today and hopefully a Phil and teds but no idea if they will be better???? Really thought I'd fall in love with one and feel quite disappointed.
What do you ladies have this time and what have you had before?
Thanks.

I've got my quinny buzz from first time around. It doesn't fold up small but I mostly used it for walking from the house so didn't need it to fold up often. If I was just popping to the shops I used a baba sling.

Can't fault the buzz, loved it! I've got a joovy caboose this time too for when I'm taking both out xx

I went for the oyster tbh it was the most compact I'd seen with the option of a carrycot and didn't cost an arm and a leg! Liked the fact u could change the colours as well. I really liked the sola as well.

Xxx

i got the stokke because i fell in love with it but its quite heavy you have to take the seat off to fold it and it dosnt go that small but it does look amaizing its parent faceing lovely to push and manover and can have car seat/carrycot both look nice on but i ddnt get the carrycot as seat goes flat i think the price has gone up now also but i LOVE LOVE LOVE it its perfect for me as i walk or get a bus (dont drive) so dont realy need to put it up and down alot but if needed when we go in a car the car seat is super easy to get on & off also lays flat when atached to the chassis so baby can be in it for longer
