FAULTY ICANDY PEACH HANDLE, ANYBODY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM??

Hi, im new here so hi!
i bought any icandy peach blossom in december for my second baby and toddler. i barely used it as a double and really looked after but within 3 months the handle broke in the middle on the part that you udjust handle height. also the whole chassis felt loose and unsafe. the shop i bought it from (the county sleep shop shrewsbury) is refusing to refund me and have repaired it. but i don't believe it could be repaired properly.
so i am taking them to a small claims court. i have heard a few stories of the handles on these prams being faulty and would like to hear from anyone who's had this problem. it would really help my court case and if we can get a load of evidence together maybe it would help other people getting there money back.
pram companies cannot carry on selling prams for top whack prices that are just not good enough qaulity. and shops just don't want know once they've got your cash of you.
would really appreicate any info, thanks!

Bellarose, did you have any luck with this? I've got a Peach that I'm not happy with and have sent a complaint. I'm not expecting a reply from them

Hi to be honest iv had positive results with them with my icandy peach, not major problems like urs just the foam ect...but they replaced the full handle bar. Is it still under warranty? You don't need a receipt after its been registered. Go on the facebook page icandy world, everyone's always moaning on it, and they seem to be quick at getting a response lol! It's terrible you pay £1000+ for a pram and expect it to last for years, hope you get somewhere,x

HaleyCayleighCiaran did you manage to get your icandy peach handle bar fixed? Same thing has happened to mine and I'm struggling to find somewhere in London that will repair or replace the handle bar.

Mine just broke but it's a known fault icandy are aware of so they will replace the handle for free if it's less than two years old. John Lewis ordered one for me for free on Friday and fitted it for me today.
