"beautiful pram…"
25-Jun-2012
this pram is fantastic.
Large sun canopy that keeps out the nasty sun from their eyes and skin, also very handy when it lashes it down and you dont have time to put the rain cover up.
So easy to recline and lie almost flat for newborn.
Windows so you can keep an eye on the little monkeys whilst theyre still able to look ahead or even look up at your if lying flat.
Very lightweight, i was so surprised! steer with 1 hand MEGA EASY!
Loadsa of storage for shopping and doesnt look tacky hanging off the handles as it stores it all away out of sight.
Variety of colours available, drys quickly aswell.
THE FOLDING IS THE BEST BIT I RECKON! 2 kids a load of shopping, just happen to be by yourself (typical) last thing you want is a difficult pushchair to fold up and put in the back of the car or boot. All you have to do is pull the fabric handles on the seat labelled PULL and its folded down flat and slots anywhere ... even in the foot space under the seats whilst the car seats above it if your boots full.
I used to have a quinny and although looked lush it was a bugger to fold down flat compared to this.
I was looking at the Icandy tandum, not only the price put me off but it was the fact that they grow out of them so quickly and they dont go flat, even if they do look lush!
This not only looks gorge but its so easy and will last for AGES.

Just so hard to steer. I tried this several times with both my boys in store and I just could not turn it!!! This is meant to be about getting children from A TO B. I could not even leave the store

"excellent double - very easy to push even up hill,…"
05-Feb-2011
excellent double - very easy to push even up hill, no probs with doors, buses, lifts etc, hoods are great and have 2 viewing windows which are fab. basket although can be tricky to get to is large and fits loads in. toddler comfy although snug with big winter coat and blanket, sure will be more roomier over spring summer.
break can be tricky to get to when seats both reclined, but small issue. also would like seat to sit more upright, but again im just fussy.
im using a caccoon in it for newborn, but new model takes the carrycot. also carseat adpators only available from us but probs worth it if using car seat a lot.
fold is amazing, although doesnt stay together well, but sure there is a way to make it do so. still fits in under stair cupboard so im happy.
over all its fab, looks good, and durable. reccommend!!!Read moreLessMumsnetter rachmanu

23-Jan-2011
Brilliant pushchair, very light to push, The hoods are fantastic, they really cover the child so if you have a newborn they will be completely protected from the sun. They are also individual which is very handy if you have children of different ages, which I have. Big basket, adjustable handle, all in all fantastic. Was also able to sell mine after 1 year of use for

"This is a fab pram, currently using it for a…"
18-Jan-2011
This is a fab pram, currently using it for a 3 and 20 month old
1) open/closing, I found the standard way which most pram close (called umbrella) a real pain, this has the most easy system, you literally lift to pads which are on the seats and you can pack it away
2) while using is it similar to the out n about nipper, goes through standard doors etc and when closed can go into the boot of a small car (I have a ford fiesta)
3) hoods, unlike some of the other doubles, there is a seperate hood for each seat so u can pull all the way down if one is having a nap
overall I love this buggy its fab !! So glad I brought it !!!Read moreLess2 people found this review helpful.

"Hi, I spent hours researching for a double stroller for…"
30-Jun-2010
Hi, I spent hours researching for a double stroller for my 17 month old and new arrival. The above just came on the market this month and any of the reviews I read were fantastic. It is pricey (£679 for stroller plus second seat plus carrycot) but I feel it's worth it. It arrived the day I gave birth which was nearly two weeks ago and am absolutely thrilled with it. Aside from the fact that it looks fantastic, I love the different combinations (16 in all), how comfortable it is, how easy it is to assemble and how easy it is to manoeuvre. All in all a great buy and I would highly recommend it :)

18-Apr-2010
Fabulous side by side double, very light weight, folds extremely easily in half. I particularly like the individual hoods and big shopping basket. it lies totally flat so i've been able to use this with my twins from birth. Fits through a standard doorway, front wheels lock for use on uneven ground etc. Its very manoeuvrable for a double (they're never going to be as easy as a single)

"I have just received my city select in the last…"
14-Apr-2010
I have just received my city select in the last week (kindly brought over by a friend from America).
The only real comparable here that I have seen to it is the I-candy peach/peach blossom. So I like many others are doing, bought blind!
It's sturdy, has a HUGE basket along with baby jogger's great big canopy (I already have a city mini and the canopy is one of my fave things), the seats have 4 positions going into a lie flat position as well as parent or out facing, and the seats and car seat can be sat in so many different configurations that there was no contest for me between the idea of this and the reality of the I-candy peach.
I can honestly say I have not been disappointed. I feel like I've got a proper, good quality tandem buggy on my hands that converts so nicely back into a single. It's not a lightweight buggy but the great easy fold and material seat (which is semi structured but folds flat for maximum space for the boot) makes that not a problem.
At the end of the day, it is a double so expect it to a bit on the bulkier, slightly wider (obviously still narrower than the smallest side by side) to allow for the weight etc. This is a great tandem with more pro's than the usual tandems i.e. both children have a good view out due to what i call cinema/arena seating (not quite one under the other and not quite one behind the other).
To sum up, it's fantastic. I could go on and on but I don't think there's much need.
Hope this is helpful as I had to do a huge amount of research in order to decide to buy this way so thought I'd pass on my 2 pennie's worth.

"I love it!!! I've tried loads of prams and doubles,from…"
22-Mar-2010
I love it!!! I've tried loads of prams and doubles,from cheap to expensive and this is the best I never thought I'd buy a twin, having always preferred tandem's, but I was won over.
It's mid-price really light,really comfortable, manoeuvres like a dream, not much wider than a single pram and you can fold it with one swift move using one hand.
My others have always been really bulky and heavy,(had to remove wheels on some to get it into car) but while I was pushing this round the shop I actually panicked and pulled back the hoods to check they were still IN there,it felt too light!Read moreLessMumsnetter motherbeyond

"I am so pleased with this double buggy, it looks…"
10-Feb-2009
I am so pleased with this double buggy, it looks smart (I have the green version). It is a bit on the large size (is a side by side buggy) but is very light weight, easy to fold (sort of folds in half in one easy movement, but needs 2 hands.) It is also really easy to steer, even one handed.
I like the fact each side has its own hood and they pull down low so make a really snug and secure shelter. The seats recline to almost flat. I use it for my 6 month old and 2 year old and they are both incredibly comfortable in it (my 2 year old is very tall and fits it fine and can nap for ages in it.)
The only draw backs are the width, but is no wider than other side by side doubles and to be any thinner would impact on comfort. Also the straps are a pain to adjust and the front wheels aren't lockable but these are minor gripes.Read moreLess1 person found this review helpful.
