I liked the look and style of this pushchair. It was good value for money and has everything you need included in the package.

Very comfy and spacious for the kiddies and a dream for walking and jogging.

BUT it is really large. Didn't fit through my front door or my close security door, so to get outside we had to fold it up which wasn't practical if raining.

This is great! It turns on a pin folds easily and is so good for two children of different ages. I didn't want to spend a fortune and this does everything I want it to!I dog walk with it, visit friends and even shop - not little village shops!

It is large though - takes up a lot of bootspace!

I bought this pushchair after having my 3rd baby by c/s. I knew that Id have a lot of walking, up and down kerbs and up hill, and wanted something that would'nt weigh a tonne.

Its a delight to push, bicycle wheels making kerbs hassel free.

Swivel wheel is also a plus for turning it, making it seem weightless.

For me the drawbacks are:

1. folding it...Its a knack that I never quite got the hang of

2. Big and bulky in a car boot

3. Weighs a tonne when lifting it either in/out of car

4. position of seats, only two, and its a 'toggle' system, which never felt overly secure

5. If you leave it in the car for a couple of days without using it, the wheels need re-pumped, which I only discovered AFTER I had it out and kids in it.

5. Does'nt fit through most standard front doors

However, even with all these gripes, I was still very happy with it, and when I looked at what else was available to me at that time, I'm glad I chose it.

Note: This review is a composite, made up from comments and scores from 38 people.
Reviewers found this very easy to push: "Easier than any single buggy I've used, it glides like a dream!" It's "very comfortable for the kids" with "big wide seats" and "it's very hard-wearing". Some cautioned, "it's a bit wider than some side by side pushchairs - so do measure your front door" and "it's a job to lift as it's so bulky and heavy". But everyone was delighted with the price: "It's brilliant value for money" as it "includes all the extras in the original price".

It is a good buggy for going walking. If you were to go shopping it is a struggle as the basket underneath is tiny, by the time you have your change bag under there is no room at all, however you can put changebag over the handles to get "2" bags under., Would benefit having more than a 2 position lieback for the babies, it is either upright sitting or flat back, maybe an in betweeny one would be better.
