Pushchairs for tall people

[tracyrose69]

Hi
My husband is over 6 foot tall and we are finding it difficult getting a stroller for our toddler that has handles high enough for him and that allows for his longer stride. We've had a look at Maclaren Techno XT and Safety 1st Compa'City which have adjustable handle heights, but wondered if anyone knows of any other models that aren't mega expensive. Any help much appreciated, Thanks.

Look at the Baby Jogger City Mini and Elite. I bought a second hand M&P Urbo recently which has a high handle.

why not have a look on ebay for the maclaren? might be better price-wise?

how much did you want to spend?

i was going to suggest baby jogger too. I am tall-ish and I find anything with one continuous handle much more comfortable to push than those with 2 separate handles, even if the handle is a little lower.

that said, if you don't want to pay the price of the safety 1st, then the baby joggers will be over budget too!

There's always the £105 Easywalker Sky on EBay - Gawsh I should be on commission - but it looks like a real bargain!!!

He doesn't want a three wheeler as they don't seem to fold up very compact and we'd need it too when we take it on holiday. Probably £100 max. We're watching ebay at the moment for some Maclarens that are on there.

the baby jogger city micro folds very flat, and the wheels pop off really, really easily.
we got it in the boot along with all our camping stuff!

Thanks :) I'll let him know and he can have a look.

There's a 4 wheel Baby Jogger City Mini.
