Has anyone had any experience with this pushchair? We are looking for something lightweight and easy to fold as I use public transport and we live in a flat. However, I also want something that is as much like a proper pram as possible.

I have also considered the Cosatto Giggle and Mamas and Papas Urbo but both seem to be getting complaints about design faults. I like the I Candy Cherry and Silver Cross Surf but the carrycots on both, particularly the I Candy, are very heavy. I have considered a Petite Star Njoy Bubble and Bugaboo Bee but I think I want more of a pram for the first few months at least but I do really like the Njoy. I think I have also ruled out a Quinny Zap Xtra for the same reason and it doesn't fold in one piece. The Mee-Go pramette looks good but there are no local suppliers for me to have a play.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Also, ideally I would like parent facing after 6 months and if it is possible to use from birth with and without carrycot. One piece fold would be ideal but I know that unless I drop the proper pram idea this isn't going to happen. Sigh.. this is so hard!

Out of your choices, I would absolutely choose the Cherry or Mee-Go Pramette. Maybe the Bee too.

Can I ask why tiggy? I saw the Evo today and thought it was a bit bulky so think that is ruled out. I do think the cherry carrycot is too heavy. Am leaning more towards a bee. I saw the urbo today and quite liked that too though

think we're going with evo. played around with loads in shop for ages and found it the easiest to use for me by far - loved the one hand fold!
