Pushchairs

Anyone know if this is a worthwhile buy or not? Hauck.

I am thinking of getting a new pushchair for DC 2, its not a total necessity but I don't like the Mamas and Papas Aria I had for DS.

This one is lovely and lightweight but I'm not sure if it was bordering on flimsy (which the Aria definitely was).

Yes this one was £299 reduced to £149.99, I saw it today but I didn't know if it was worth it and I can't seem to find any reviews online.

I would steer clear of the Graco one tbh. It is hard to steeer and to bump up and down pavements because of the odd shape of the handles and back frame.

The hauck one looks ok, but the wheels might not be too great, they look quite thin.

What about this Chicco one which also has a carrycot or this Graco

I would reccomend this graco one here. I had one. They are very lightweight, yet are compatible with the graco autobaby car seat if you need that. They fold really flat and I found it much easier to push a one handled one than a 2 handled pushchair. The one I had for ds1 survived 3 years of real abuse, it got walked miles, it has a very large basket which I used to seriously overload. It just kept going. I only got rid of it when ds2 came along as I thought I'd treat myself to a different buggy (which I hated).

mamas and papas luna 4 wheel pushes a lot nicer than the aria but is still 1 hand push. I think they are very cheap in the sale right nice. You can use your own mamas and papas car seat with it, or add a carrycot (i've seen a few in v.goof condition on ebay)

the luna mix is reduced to £145 brand new on the mamasandpapas website just now. really nice to push,pretty sturdy,but i wouldnt recommend it for a larger child,maybe upto 18mopnths.
