I like the Phil and Teds Smart but I like the Quinny Zapp Xtra... But which one is best? ... Theres only one way to find out....FIGHT!!

Sorry! [Blush]

Seriously
I like both,Both about the same price and they both seem to meet my requirements:

Rearfacing,Small folding.

I know the Bugaboo Bee does too, but not overly keen on its style and bit pricey for what will be a second buggy for holidays and school run.

Anyone have either? Heard anything good/bad about either?
Help!?!?

I tried, researched and played with both for my 14 month old, then went and bought the bee

P&T smart cannot be folded rf and if in rf you haave to remove and store the adapters before folding. Also ALL accessories cost extra. But the big wheels are nice and it is very very light. The rf recline is good, front facing not so good. Looks very good and does fold v flat especially with the wheels off.

Zapp Xxtra. Only two positions in rf both reclined, dc cannot sit up in rf. Handles fixed. You have to remove the seat to fold making it awkward to carry and hold hands. Wasn't too impressed with the basket either. tbh I just did not like it, but plenty of people do. If you are tall you will catch your shins when pushing it.

I went and got my bee that really did all of the above for £388 at Mothercare and unexpectedly it has become my main pushchair, it rocks.

I had the zapp xtra for the reasons you do but hated it, never used it ouside, bee+ is miles and miles and miles better and when you sell it will really hold it's value. I'm just starting to favour it over my cameleon just as it is so easy to put up/down etc. Fab fab fab!!
