Hello, I have a moderate pram habit: I have a Stokke Xplory which I love, a P&T back carrier, have just sold my old M&P Pulse, a BOB Ironman jogging stroller and have just bought a M&P Luna Mix.
The problem is grandma. She drops dd off at nursery twice a week and needs to be able to fold, unfold, strap dd in, undo her, fold and put it in the pushchair shed.
The Xplory is easy to get dd in and out of, but I don't want to leave that in the shed, plus DG can't fold it, even if I demonstrated it to her a million times.
The Pulse was OK but rickety and dd never seemed comfortable in it: she always looked hunched up, plus DG has to bend over to recline it, and it didn't look like it would withstand heavy weather.
The BOB is easy to fold but DG cannot work out how the raincover works despite my showing her a million times, she is terrified of suffocating dd if she gets it wrong. Plus the wheel keeps coming off because DGrandad keeps fiddling with the quick release.
The Lunamix I bought because I thought it would be easier, but apparently DG can't fold it without hurting her back and she cannot work out how to adjust the straps. I do like it otherwise and DG likes that it's a 3 wheeler and easy to manoeuvre around Marks and Spencer.
In this world, is there a pram that DG could get her head around and fold without twanging her back?
