Which do I want? Is the only difference the cosytoes? And if it is - does that make it quite bulky to fold up?

xlr is a bigger frame...pro's:
Large seat for older toddlers
large seat takes soft carrycot and carseat
feels nice and solid to push..

cons...
heavy to push ime with larger toddler as heavy for a stroller
large/heavy folded
high handled no good if shortie!

Right - XT it is then. I've got a second hand Quest at the moment. I'd like something bigger / better - but not a beast! Thanks Nicola x

i've had at least half a dozen xt's always come back to them! XLR i've had three times i think but always sell as to big. Have you seen new red xt??

I have! I think that's got to be the one - the others are a bit worthy colour-wise!
