Which Joolz should I buy?

This whole pushchair thing has been driving me utterly crazy but i think I have finally found a brand that seems right for me...as in the Joolz brand.

I live in South East London and want something that is good for city use and public transport, can cope with a bit of off road (eg going to the park), is manoeuvrable and not too heavy (for mum and dad in law to use). I also want it to last from newborn for as long as possible, and would potentially consider something that can convert to duo usage in case I get pregnant again quickly.

(Also i am exceptionally vain and want something that looks really sleek and designer-ish!)

I've seen a lot of good reviews for the Joolz and was wondering if anyone else owns one, and what their experience has been? Thanks :)

owned both - see thread below joolz geo v day! love the geo large basket pannier bags, rain cover, doesn't fall open, clip to keep closed, larger hood, better materials, easier collapse.... can convert to double; DAY is beautiful but i would think twice about owning one again, would buy geo again though anyday love it!

I have a Day but would have had a Geo if they had existed when DD was born. Be warned that it is pretty big and bulky and consequently a bit of a nightmare on buses. It will only fold in one piece with a forward-facing seat, so after a few fraught bus journeys I learned very quickly to stick to a sling on buses.

It's light and comfortable to push but heavy to lift.

Thanks for that advice Dolores, that is one of my huge concerns, good to know its a bit big on buses!

We have a day, love the height but storage is crap especially parent facing (shopping bag is essential but can make it tip and can't be used parent facing) and it is bulky & hard work in confined spaces or up/down stairs. That said it's still doing us proud at 18 months just now in the market for something smaller that fits on the tram.

It won't fold with anything in the storage thing at the bottom
