The peach is a double and the apple is a single.

Hiya

The peach also comes as a single stroller as well. I saw it at the weekend and I absolutely loved it. The apple is bigger and heavier and the peach can for sleeping at night instead of a moses basket (with the correct mattress).

I'm taking my husband to see it this week. Only down side really is the price but for something I will be using everyday for the next couple of years and the fact I can upgrade it if I have another one I think it's worth it.

Have a look on their website, there is a video of it as well.

Does anyone know if you can see the Peach anywhere in or near London?

Hi ChunkyChick

If you go on the ICandy website they list stockists (Select Greater London as there is no London option).

There were three in my area and I rang them all to see who had it on display. Of the three stockists two had the peach in store. They will also give the price over the phone. All quoted me the same price.

When we were looking, the Peach wasn't out yet but we were told (by John Lewis) that it would be the "new and improved" version of the Apple, with the main difference being weight. With both, you can have them as a single or a double and in various different combinations which seemed pretty nifty to me. The only thing which put us off getting the Peach was the fact that they wouldn't be out until very close to our EDD and, from reading various reviews on various websites, it seemed that iCandy had had some teething problems with their previous models and we couldn't be bothered with the faff of dealing with these.

Its available now, although some stores have a waiting list.

For the basic peach single stroller I was quoted £499 and £150 for the carry cot. The car seat adaptors are £29.99. You then have to buy the Maxi cosi CabrioFix car seat and Isofix base as extras.

Both the apple and peach turn into doubles when needed. I saw the peach at Great Expectations in Brighton. The peach is available in a stunning orange, the single stroller switches to a double with a couple of light weight bars - then you just add the extra cot or seat as needed. Best of all you use the seat unit from the single stroller so the upgrade to a double is a bargain. Who sells a quality double for just an extra £160 ??. The fold is just incredible, one handed and no effort, the carry strap allows you to carry it on your shoulder, OK, it's not feather weight but I could carry it up the steps to our parents place OK.
