Stroller for a 3 yr old - urgent!

[MrToad]

My McLaren has just died on me so I need a pushchair/ stroller for DS who is a very big 3 year old.

We'll be using it for the mile walk to/ from nursery each day and for trips around town, DS does not like walking long distances!

Need some suggestions in the next hour so I can pop out and buy it this afternoon ready for nursery tomorrow. We have Asda, Mothercare and Argos nearby.

Thanks!

Maclaren quest/techno or baby jogger city mini

Or micralite - makes pushing my 4 year old a breeze but not the sturdiest for shopping

Micralite superite

Would your DS use a scooter rather than a pram?

Baby jogger city mini from
boots or tesco online. If you can cope tomorrow it may be there monday

Where abouts are you, you could borrow something from me if you are Somerset (I have lots) until you get something if you like??

Carrie lou that's kind of you. Same offer here if local.

There is a cheap bjcm on sale board on here for 55.

I found my BJCM nightmarishly heavy to push and get up kerbs compared to a Micralite with a 35lb child in it.

Thank you all so much for your advice and the kind offers of pushchair loans!

Am off to the shops tomorrow to test drive the pushchairs you suggest. We managed nursery on the bus this morning.

DS can't scoot, seems to have a mental block and pulls his scooter along behind him. Is pretty good on his balance bike but not quick enough when I'm late for work !
