...I am unnecessarily infatuated with the babyjogger city mini. And, in fact, have just come across the city elite and may have fallen in love over again, but is it probably a pretty penny too far judging by ebay prices. DC2 is 18 months. I want another dc, but DH says no. I have a Quinny Speedi and a Maclaren quest for nipping to the shops from dc1. I want to be able to justify to DH why I -want- need to replace the Speedi with a new pram that essentially does the same job.
So, in your humble opinion, why would I need a BJCM?
Would I be able to rid myself of the need for 2 prams? Is it nippy enough for shopping trips? Is the fold good enough to slot into a packed boot like the Quest can? Is it nice enough for a brand new dc3 if the baby gods shone on me? (I am suspecting that the quinny carrycot is still a better bet for Northern winter babies, which is what I seem to produce). Are those wheels as smooth as the pneumatic ones on the quinny on gritty pavements?
I have ongoing pelvis issues and I am finding the quinny a bit of a hulk to steer at times, so I am fancying the one-handed steer of the BJCM.
