Silvercross Pioneer Pram/Pushchair

[kittiecat]

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I'm going to try! Only 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant but out of excitement have been looking at prams already. Really taken with the silvercross pioneer but my only concern is that it wont fit in our car boot (Seat Ibiza Connect). Has anyone got any experience of how well this pram fits in a small/small-ish boot? My DH argues it'll be fine as our boot's not that small (bigger than the ford fiesta) but I still worry . Will probably go try it out at a mothercare but wanted some feedback as feel it's too early days to do that!

I have it. Bought as a travel system. 3 in 1. I dont like it.

A - car seat heavy and bulky and dd is always too hot in it. When i take her out of it her back is red hot. On the plus side, she loves riding in the car and seems comfy to be in the seat when i clip it to shassis and we go out.
B - carrycot is too small she is 3.5 months and already not comfy in it both sides' and length wise. Its too early to put her in the pram so im now restricted to using either the car seat or not go for walks at all.
C - the shassis just about fits in my toyota auris boot. Wheelbase is too wide.
D - lovely to maneuvre on the flat surface but soon as you get to streets (and some pavements are rough) it gets harder to push. Negotiating kerbs is a struggle.

Overall i now wish i had bought a pram with air filled wheels and suspension. Like silver cross surf or venicci.

Big shopping basket is a lovely feature though 😂😂😂

Sorry i rambled on and you only asked how it fits in the boot lol

Honest opinion though, its not worth its money (it aint cheap). Unless you find it on sale....

no I appreciate your opinion thank you! funnily enough venicci was another option for me. just feel like I don't know enough about them.
