Hi, just looking for some advice if anyone can help. My dd is 17 months old and has a rare brain disorder and because of this is not going to be able to walk or talk. Im desparately looking for a rearward facing pushchair that has got a wide seat as i want it to last for as long as possible. At the moment i have a loola which is great in the summer but in the winter once you put a cosytoes toes in and shes got her jacket on theres hardly any room for her and i cant extend the harness any further and shes not even that big. Any suggestions? HELP!

Hi

I think the seat on the bebe confort streety is wider than the loola, personally I dont find the Bugaboos that generous with the seat sizes, if you only use the pushchair for walking something like a Bertini or Emalunga have good size seats as well. The thing is they are quite big heavy pushchair thats all i can think of I hope someone else can help

Hi, I have an Emmaljunga, which is extremely sturdy, very wide, great quality build and a comfy ride. You can switch the handlebar over if the sun is in their eyes. ('Edge' or 'Sport' model)
The newer ones have stretchy straps too, for comfort.
HTH!
(I have one for sale, well I have four but am selling two of them iyswim! Mine are the older model but it still does most of that)

Ps it is a heavy pushchair, not easy to lift into a boot for instance but can be done if necessary.
Are you after something foldable or transportable, or mainly for walking?
