Which pushchair should i buy (vote)?
DEFINATLY the mamas and papas one (the last one) the Maclaren is nice but i use my one for my three-year-old, it's not suitable as a full time newborn buggy as it doesn't lie back completely!





i also don't like the car seat prams, babies shouldn't stay in a car seat for more than an hour (unless on a one-off long journey) as the position the baby is in isn't good for their soft, developing bones, they aren't in a flat position and if they are in the car seat in the car, then the car seat is put straight on the pram whilst shopping or whatever and back into the car like everyday it's so bad for them!!!!





Newborn babies should be lying down FLAT in a nice soft pram like the last one you have picked and if you save up a bit more money after your baby is born you can buy the maclaren aswell for nipping to the corner shop and stuff!!!!





good luck with your choice





p.s the last one will come with a seat for when your baby gets older, it will last for years xx also the middle three aren't very hard wearing, i've had one like that before and it didn't last long at all!!!





EDIT: it sounds like you've made your mind up to get the first one!!!

Reply:hello there, I have another option for you. What about an I'coo-Pico. I have one of these which I purchased with a rain cover, cosy toes, %26amp; change bag, for £135.00 on ebay. This price includes p%26amp;p. Its a brilliant pushchair with great wheels and brilliant suspention, the cosey toes is the best one that I've ever seen that comes with any pushchair. If you need to turn it into a travel system, then you can also buy the car seat that fits on the pushchair.


Just consider this as these are really good. Anyway its worth a look.. The one that I have is the I'coo Pico 4.
Reply:I had a Maclaren buggy for all four of my children, yes the same one, and if I had any problems or needed extras I just contacted them and they supplied it, often free of charge.
Reply:Hello!





I've got mine from Mamas %26amp; Papas, and got the same colour and design as the one in your picture, only in the Ultima. Its a 6 in 1 travel system, and came with a primo viaggio car seat, car seat base pushchair attachment, carry-cot (pram) attachment, stand (which ANY of the parts that go on so it can be used as a baby chair, moses basket, high chair, etc) pram chassis. I also got the rain covers, changing bag and foot muff as gifts from family and friends once I'd got the pram.





As it all folds flat, (not umbrella style though) taking it on the bus, train, etc won't be such a problem for when the other half has the car for work! The plus point of folding flat is, all you do is hit the button on the side like a trigger and the whole thing opens and locks in position ready on the spot for use.


Its also really light and easy to use/carry.


It's also good for babies from birth right up to four years.


The Pliko is a good one though, and is very sturdy and strong, as is the one I've just bought; (I looked at it before picking this one out!) I got this one in the end because it was part of whole set and was actually really good value for money.





In closing, the colour looks MUCH better in the flesh than it does in the pictures, and is good for either a baby girl or a baby boy. So, once this one is finished with it, I can put it away and use it for the next baby!

Reply:I don't know anything about those that you have listed, but I will tell you a little about MY experience, and then tell you about my all time favorite stroller.





First off, I have four children. I have several strollers over the years too. For the first, I bought a full sized stroller, and while I loved it, it was sorta heavy. I also bought a small stroller but never really liked it much. It was hard to steer.





When I had my second, I bought a double stroller; talk about HEAVY! But it was used a lot, even after my third was born. I still use it today when we are at a fair or something where I know the littles might get tired. But I could not justify buying another small stroller at the time. Crazy, but true - lol!





When my fourth was born, a friend had a chicco london stroller and I totally fell in love with it and bought one for myself THAT DAY. It is light weight like an unbrella stroller, but it has features of a full sized stroller, like a reclining seat (which means you can use it for a newborn), a nice basket on the bottom, and great swivel wheels. I have had it for 2 years now and LOVE it and use it a lot. While I think they do not make it anymore, I think they have a replacement that is very similar and just as nice.





Here is the UK site for Chicco:

Good luck!
Reply:I have the Maclaren Techno Classic and from memory it is very similar to the XT. I've had my baby in it from birth and he has always been very secure.





The pram is highly manoeuvrable and I love it!!! I much prefer it to the other prams that other mum's have!





Hope that this helps!
Reply:I personally like the second or third one best. Get one you can use both for newborn and older, not just one for infants or one for older kids. It's a lot more convenient and cost effective.
Reply:I no what you mean about the secureness for a new born. I think that seeings as it is for a new born baby then i would go for the bottom one. I couldn't decide between that and the Disney one, but then when i realised it was for a new born baby i went for the bottom one. It's a good make, and I like the design!


Good luck with the baby xx
Reply:maclaren folds down completly flat for baby!,what are these people on with?..lol.anyway i have techno xt and the hood folds down even more than standard buggy/pram and i bought it for my baby son who is now 2 and it still looks great,its value for money and will last you a long time
Reply:hi. i like the 4th one. it looks nice and it doesnt look to heavy and it goes right up to age 3. So that would be my choice if i had just them to chose from. good luck.
Reply:I like them all except the Disney one.





If I were you I'd go for a travel system from birth and then when baby gets a bit older, change to something like the Maclaren. That's what I did. That obviousy depends on whether or not you drive or the baby will be going in cars. If you buy the Maclaren you'll have to buy a car seat separately.





Just a tip - try www.kiddicare.com. They're so much cheaper than the shops. Go to the shops and have a look at the buggy and make sure it's what you want, then order it from them and save some money.





Good luck.
Reply:i like the mamas and papas one i got one like that when my son was little and it was well good lasted ages i dont like that disney one your paying for the fact its diney but the model is quite cheap and not that hard wearing the others are ok but the first one isnt for a new born is it???? thats a stroller babys have to be about 3-6 mnths before they can use that type.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Reply:hi


i have a maclaren techno there are cosy and very good for using public transport. if you are going out in car it is easy to fold down. i would recommed it to anyone. they wipe clean easy aswell. i have a mamas and papas buggys and it is a lovely pram i just couldnt get on the bus with it and was hard going on trains. you just have to think about how u will be getting around, like if you go out by car or public transport. baby car seats arent that dear in mothercare i bought mine seperate than buying one of those big prams with them. hope ive helped.
Reply:Brittax, complete with carseat.





Chicco are good, but their customer support is poor.
Reply:get the mama's and papa's one. my sister has one and as its an umbrella fold it makes it easy for storage too! its what i'm going for for my second one!
Reply:i love the 3rd one but dont love the price!! i think the 2nd one has everything that u need and is a good price if ur only looking to use it until 6months. there is an ebay shop called online4baby and they have a really wide range of prams and pushchairs and all are considerably cheaper than the high street stores i have purchased a pushchair for my daughter on there and im expecting my 2nd and have seen a travel system i want to buy from there too so its worth a look!
Reply:i have bought the mamas and papas pilco p3 which is very similar to the one you like the p3 comes with carry cot car seat and pushchair and is very lightweight my little boy is four months now and he is in the pushchair part of it and very comfortable. i think if you were to go for number 1 then you should buy something to pad the baby out a bit but it is a nice pram.
Reply:Hi i have one exactly the same as the mamas and papas pilko but its made by silver cross its called a 3d pram system its amazing. I would definitely go for the Polk. You can use them as a pram, a travel system if you purchase the car seat and a forward facing light weight, umbrella folding pushchair. If looked after this could last you forever.
Reply:I have the mamas and papas one and i love it. They sell it in Next now though so it may become very popular. I also ave the first one. i bought it to go abroad. I wouldn't put a newborn in it though. i would wait till it is a few months old first. Sorry i do not like the winnie the pooh one
Reply:The first one and last one both look like they would work for a newborn right on up to 3 or 4 years old. They both fold umbrella style which I think is what your talking about when you say you want to get a smaller one later. Those two already fold up small. They also both say they can be used for a newborn. Good luck and congratulations.
Reply:i really like the mamas and papas one it just looks soo much better than the rest (don't mean to offend) but if it was my choice it would be that one


good luck
