"Brilliant!"
We absolutely love this pushchair....
It’s very easy to use. We tend to use it in the parent facing mode as I like to see what little one is doing. Although it’s quite large when folded the wheels do come off easily if you are tight for space in the boot of your car. It can be folded with the seat unit on but only in the forward facing position. I have noticed that when folding it up, the plastic part above the front wheel gets a little scratched as you can’t help but put this part on the ground so as to get it compact enough for the safety lock to click into place. This pushchair is wider than our last one but it still fits through doorways absolutely fine. It’s very nice to look at and looks good quality too. It’s sturdy and safe though not too heavy to lift in and out of the car.
We have tested it out on all types of terrain and it has mostly been easy to control, the only bad one was sand but then anyone that has ever tried to push a pushchair through sand will know it’s impossible!
The reclining seat is easy to use with one hand and the adjustable handle is brilliant as it folds right down so far that it gets the handle out of the way if you want to feed baby in the pushchair. The shopping basket is very big and I managed to fit a shopping basket from the supermarket in it whilst walking around the shop which made life a lot easier at the checkout.
I have found the hood really handy as it has a mesh panel that’s concealed by a zip, when open the hood comes right down and whichever position the sun is in it has been easy to shade Georges face from the sun so no parasol needed and you can still see baby through the mesh panel, great for playing peekaboo!
The whole family give this a big thumbs up, my 7 year old is happy because the handle goes low enough for her to push comfortably, me because it does everything I want it to and it looks great and especially George who falls asleep in it much more easily than his old pushchair!
