Has anyone got a Mamas and Papas Mylo?

Hi there, looking around for a pushchair... Have looked at the Mylo a few times now and really like it (apart from it being rather pricey) but can't find any reviews... Is there a mum out there who can tell me what its like? Is it worth it?

Thanks so much!!!

Hi Katrin,

I just wrote you a rather long post, which my computer appears to have eaten...

In summary, I love my mylo, particularly that it's easy to manoeuvre (e.g. in shops) but also works well in the park / on fairly rough tracks. Not so good for sand though! I also like the folding mechanism and the carry cot which is quite large and we have used it as a travel cot several times (with a different mattress).

Only niggle is the brake sometimes sticks on and requires a couple of goes to release.

We have only used the carry cot so far as DD is 14 weeks.

I also like the fact it is relatively high compared to a lot of other prams so DD is nearer me and further away from the exhaust pipes of cars.

Whether or not it's worth it...it's a similar price to bugaboo, icandy etc and when we compared it to those, we preferred the mylo. However, our second choice was a britax b-smart, which would have been much better value for money, but we just loved the mylo more.

They do seem to be very rare though, which could mean there's a major flaw that we haven't spotted yet...

Hope this helps a bit.

i ordered this but changed my mind at the last minute.

the only downside for me was that i would not have room to store the carrycot after the baby outgrows it. i didn't want to spend that much money on something i would need to get rid of after a few weeks.

loved the pram though. dp thought it looked like an office chair Confused

what colours are you looking at?

It does look a little like a chair. In fact, when we were deeply into pram investigation, I did catch myself eyeing up the office chairs and assessing their wheels etc, before realising that they were office chairs and not prams.
