so heres the deal,were expeting our third kid early next year and our current buggy/pushchair has passed its best. any recomendations on not to expensive child chariots. cheers.

DONT, even think or buy a 3 wheeled one, as they tip over quite easily, are a pain to get on trains or public transport etc.

good advice cheers, four wheels it is.

We have a quinny buzz and it isnt a patch on the phil & Teds sportbuggy so much better build quality and can sling a nipper underneath if you have another.

We've had a McLaren techno xt since Kenz was a tiny baby, and it's been great – its been abroad numerous times and has put up with baggage handling abuse, as well as that dished out by a now 3 1/2 yr-old and is still going strong. I remember it had some attachments for when he was tiny, so we've used the same one right through.

thanks for the help people, ill get looking, just hope i dont have to sell a bike to fund it!

pretty happy with our Mutsy, carrycot, carseat, buggy

have a good look though, what suits others may not suit you.

anyone used a maxi cosi mura 3?

Maxi Cosi car seats are ace, we have 3 of them now

Quinny Buzz is cack though, The only good thing about it is being able to use it with a Maxi Cosi baby car seat.

the maxi cosi car seat so far (2 journeys) is ace – need a buggy that it will fit on!

Mama & Papas factory shop (Huddersfield) has some half price buggies

Or go to an NCT sale – my wife went to one on Saturday and apparently there are loads and loads and loads of really good nearly new stuff.

Almost all chairs (that are able to take car seats) will take the Maxi Cosi as it is the most popular seat (although some need adapters). Have you got the one with the Isofix base? Ours have them and they are a godsend – just clip them out of their buggy and clip them into the base. No faff with seatbelts etc.

What a load of bollox.
Stupid sweeping statement.
Our Phil & Ted has never tipped over, even on some seriously bumpy ground. Is a doddle to get on & off trains, up & down kerbs etc. Plus it has the lie-flat seat & cocoon so can be used properly from birth.

If you want "difficult to manouvre" go buy a side-by-side double with tiny wheels.
