getting it off and on buses is very difficulty with being narrow at the front and wider at the bacK.

It works well for walks in the park but the front wheel is fixed so very difficult to maneuver in town. It's a two handed fold which is impossible to do holding a baby and I wish there were more positions.It does go properly flat which is good for a newborn although the seat was very narrow in the upright position. I'm glad I only got it cheaply second hand.

We bought a Graco 3 wheeler over 4 years ago. Think it's the expedition - only used it for about a year cos the rear wheels kept falling off. Found it great on uneven ground. Bulky to store. I'm now using it with my four month baby. I replaced the rear axle (easy to do as they just unclip) so the rear wheels don't fall off any more! I've found it sturdy and good on the beach etc but the fixed front wheel is a real pain in town. The harness isn't a good fit for a newborn and I need a halfway position for the seat which it doesn't have. My baby doesn't like lying flat when awake and tries to sit up and the seated position doesn't give her any support. The way the car seat clips onto the chassis on top of the pram is handy because you don't need to remove the pram first. However I've lost the clip that attatches the car seat on so I can't do that at the moment and can't get a replacement clip because the pram is no longer made. We bought the travel system in

the first place because it was value for money -

Not very impressed overall. It's not very good when walking over rough ground as it's not very stable due to the light weight. it's also hard to push over smooth surfaces due to not having a swivel wheel. I have to keep checking the front removable wheel is tight as a couple of times it has come off while i've been using it!

was not happy with the build quality - wheels rusted quickly, harness buckle snapped. Not the most comfortable of seats either - very thin and not well padded and too upright. Only two seat positions is limiting. My toddler can easily get his arms out of the staps too as they do not tighten up enough, which is also a problem using it for a baby, as they are not able to be secured that well.

The only good points were: easy of folding and setting up, large shopping basket,no worries about punctures, easy to remove wheels and it fit in my tiny car boot.

Lovely smart three wheeler with massive shopping basket - you can use it at a half way position too if you mess with the straps and sdjust the angle, although it took ma a while to find this out. Even worked for my lo when in hip spica. Just hard to fit in my Fiesta - but OK with the quick release wheels off. Just make sure you click them back on again properly!
