Prams anyone??

[lewood88]

I know its early but ive spent weeks looking at prams suitable for my busy life and im torn between the bugaboo bee3 abd mammas and pappas armidillo flip.

Anyone had experiences with these?

I love the look of he armadillo flip. I kept my m&p sola from DS so will use that initially then just but the flip pushchair i think x

Hi, ive got the armadillo flip xt in teal and even though I obviously havent used it yet I love it, it's all so easy to change from carry cot to pushchair to car seat and folds so well with the pushchair on it
The pushchair part can be used from newborn and you can get a cocoon to make it more comfortable but as we got £150 off on an ex display one we spent that on the carry cot
There was an offer of £45 off a car seat when u bought it from mamas and papas but as ours was on offer we couldnt do that but dh asked if we could have 10% off if bought the accessories too so we got £50 off the changing bag, foot muff and parasol so it's worth asking sales assistants to ask their managers for more of a discount
We were looking at bugaboo chameleon but just felt too big and heavy and the armadillo flip will last til their walking
Hope this helps!

No experience with either.. but we've gone for the bugaboo cameleon. It's a limited ed black frame one RRP over £1000 with accessories. Stupid money for a pram!

We found it used slightly for £500 cheaper than the original price

I'm another with a Bugaboo Cam, I brought mine really cheap as itsa older version but its really good condition theone thing that does kinda get to me is how expensive they are to personalize, but mine will mainy be used for walking around the village rather then long trips with the car.

That bike pram looks good! We've go a bugaboo cameleon from ds2- I'm not getting a new one

 

[Jessicahide]

I have a 9 and 5 year old and we cycle everywhere so the thinking was it was minimal impact on them.... Plus I would rather cycle anyway

That Taga bike is so awesome!!! And here I was thinking that our Thule CX2 bike trailer was cool.

I love that pram bike, I wish I could justify getting one!!

Bought a Bugaboo Chameleon yesterday, looks like they're very popular. Bought it second hand so have had to have a play around with it to find out how to do everything, but seems OK so far

I considered getting the bee but I've always thought they looked extremely low to the ground compared to other pushchairs. Not only is babies view reduced when they're sitting up but also unless you're petite you'd need to bend a lot to reach into buggy. When I went to mother care and put it on floor next to other buggies it showed just how low it is. I went for a babystyle oyster with this one (expecting third baby and have owned a fair few pushchairs! Lol)

 

[lewood88]

Im 5ft1 so in pritty short tbf so the be could be ideal but i am going to pop in mothercare and have a look x

I couldn't justify spending a lot on a pram as we are going to baby wear too, so I got the meego pramette. It's supposed to be £500ish but we got the whole thing for £150 including rain covers etc. it's apparently ex display but was still in packaging! I'm not happy with using the car seat which came in the package so we used te money we saved to buy a really good car seat with isofix base, the seat we got does from birth to 12 years and the pram will do from newborn to three so hopefully they were worthwhile purchases.

 

[lewood88]

Ive kept my 2 car sear from dd2 maxi cosi carry one its pratically in mint condiontion so i dont see the point in buying a brand new one lol x

 

[loeylo]

I wouldn't buy a new one either if this was baby 2 but this is number 1 for us so we didn't have one, the new isize rules will be in place by the time we have number 2 so we thought we would get a seat that is compliant.
