Mothercare Urban Detour Glacier

I got it for my newborn and used it until she was 9 months old. I absolutely loved it. But it being on a bigger side and me living in London, it was a nightmare to get to the buses and tube! BUt it was brilliant to go for a daily walk on the Thames riverside, parks or fields. It was the best value for money, coming with the car seat, footmuff, rain cover and huge shopping basket. But for me being able to hop easily on and off the bus was a priority so after 9 months of using it I opted for another one.

I love this push chair, it was easy to handle and both my children were very comfortable in it from birth - 2/3

I bought this system when my son was about 3 months old, and sold it again when he was 9 months. Its great value for money as the carseat is included too as is the raincover and a footmuff (unlike other models). Its easy to use and my partner was happy to be seen pushing it (I had the lovely bright red model). The seat is large and will last a while, its fairly well padded and the large hood is a nice touch. The basket is a really good size and very easy to access. Its very easy to click the carseat onto but the system is very heavy and bulky to lift. I would have also liked some suspension for walks in the woods etc!

I had to sell mine as the handle height doesn't adjust and was more suited to my taller partner than myself. I also found that the basket rubbed on the front wheel if the basket was full, and the seat unit wasn't easy to clean as to remove the seat unit you have to unscrew about 10 screws, only to find it doesn't fit in my washer! If you use the seat liner though you should be ok. When you fold the pushchair the foot plate and the handle rub on the floor so do become easily scratched, but you can over come these issues.

I think its a great three wheeler for the price and my friend has one and loves it!

I bought a second one (secondhand on Ebay), not because there was anything wrong with the first one but I wanted one for in the car and one for in the house for the school run.

I've had a few pushchairs in my time (holiday buggy, Baby Jogger, spare for at Mother in laws etc) and this is by far the best I have used. It is a delight to push, it doesn't i[ over, you can open the school gate with one hand and push the buggy through with the other, no problem. And boht my children have been more than happy to sit or sleep in it.
