Pushchairs

Are there any parent facing pushchairs that fold in one piece?

So fed up of taking the seat off the frame!

Hello! You were teased by the Combi like I was, weren't you?
You could look at these:
Babystyle Oyster.
Bugaboo Bee Plus (the lightest one I've managed to find)
Bebeconfort Loola
M&P Mylo

Possibly the following:
Bebeconfort Streety
Jane Solo R
Brio Go
Icoo Pii

There must be others. We are not well served in the UK, are we?

I soooo was!

I just brought the bebeconfort loola and don't seem to be able to fold it in parent facing mode but maybe I need more of a play with it! The woman I brought it off said it was a design fault that you needed to remove the seat to unfold/fold otherwise the handles won't lock properly- I suspect this is an issue with this specific pushchair- ah well it is much nicer than the quinny buzz monstrosity which am now selling on ebay!

I am sooo tempted by the bugaboo but it may lead to divorce!

Right will google the others.

get yourself a bee plus. Worth every penny. You'll not look back. Speaking as a certified pram addict who has tried nearly every pram on the market.

I'm pleased with my M&P Skate (admittedly I'd much rather have a Bugaboo, but I'm quite a tight arse and will only buy second hand prams. Skates go for a much lower price on ebay than Bugaboos!)

You can fold the loola with the seat facing you. I know we did, defintely!

I've got a loola up and can fold with the seat facing. Sometimes it's easier to recline it first, because it makes it easier to grab the handle bit.

The handles don't lock when it folds though, do they? Is the Loola different to the Up in that regard?

The handles don't lock when you unfold it if the seat is in apparently- and woe betide you accidently press the release button while the seat is on- the handle slips and only way to lock it again is to take seat off.
Sigh. Can you unfold it without taking the seat off bertiebotts? I think if I have a play I can probably fold it with seat on but definitely can't unfold it which renders it useless if you have folded with seat on! (unless thats just a problem with my specific loola?)

Also anyone know how to change the height of the handles on the loola? (I know the loola up has the height adjustable bar- but I thought i read somewhere you could change the height of the loola handles a bit?)
