Buggy choices

Have spent what seems like forever researching a pram but seem to be nowhere closer to a decision! Confused

Really like the Mothercare Orb and the Joie Chrome Plus.

We have a limited budget and needs to be fairly compact as we only have a small boot space. Want something that can be parent facing but also carrycot option.

Any advice would be really helpful?

No advice, sorry. Confused

We are in the same boat though, narrowed down to these two, we just can't make a decision! The orb reviews aren't great but I really like the look and love that it's not got a separate carry cot.

Why is it so hard?!

I really didn't think it would be this difficult!!

I do really like the orb, but like you are put off by the reviews. Hubby prefers the Orb but I just don't want to make a wrong choice

I had a chrome about 18 months ago, it's really good for the money imo. The parent facing fold on the chrome and the poor reviews on the spin/orb would make the decision for me.

What are you going to use the buggy for?

London buses - big wheels are annoying.
Can you fold it down small and easy to store at nursery or put it in the car?
Do you want to do a decent shop in it? - basket space.
Will you be walking a dog with it?
Do you have steps - then you want a light one.

Thankyou for all your help. We have gone for the chrome plus. Now only 12 weeks until I can use it!
