Do you mean Stroller?

I've heard the Maclaren Quest is quite good.

Hello hun :wave: ,

Ive just bought (or in the midst of buying) the STEELCRAFT BAYAMO stroller. You can get the bassinette and the stroller which interchange. I'm not getting a pram, just having this one and it looks great. Plus because it is last years model and they have just bought out a new one, they are on sale in most places.

Here is some info about it (this is just the ebay listing of one but shares some info):

I'm with Beany on this one. Absolutely LOVE my Bugaboo. Its lightweight and folds up pretty small so it acts as a stroller as well as a pram.

Hi,

I just bought the Macclaren Quest and I love it! But it's from about 3 months old as it doesn't lay back completely. Our car has a really small boot and this was the smallest stroller we could find that still lays back. The wheels are quite small which made a difference for us and our car boot. It's 8 kgs so quite light too.

The Quinny Zapp. Weighs about 5kg and comes with a shoulder bag- so handy!

I have a Maclaren Vogue and it's a great stroller but it's very light so you would not be able to hang your nappy bag off it as I would guess your DS would not be heavy enough to hold it down.

I've just bought the Valco Titan, and i love it!

It's essentially an unbrella stroller but reclines fully for a newborn. I actually got the "special edition" for $179 which comes with a UV protectant fly screen that zips onto the sun-hood of the stroller - i find this simply excellent!

Here's a link:

I am picking up my Maclaren Techno XT this week. It is costing about $370 so not cheap, but I reckon it will be used ALL THE TIME. I have been using a monster Valco 3 wheeler which is great for trekking around the park, but I have done my back lifting it in and out of the car. So can't wait to be able to pop it in one handed.

All the Maclarens are pretty lightweight, and I think they all fold up one-handed. The Quest doesnt fully recline so is from 3 months plus. The vogue and techno recline fully, and have footmuffs to keep the bubs feet warm.

There is so much choice out there- good luck finding a good one! Cherry
