Does anyone have one of these for a toddler? I want to get her a stroller rather than lug the Quinny Buzz around now she is two. They are on offer at Mothercare at the moment.

I know of a few that have had the brakes broken within a few months. It doesn't seem easy to push when my friend uses hers but I've never tried it myself. She actually hates it, but I've never asked her why exactly!

Does it need to be narrow? I like the Chicco Liteway for that sort of stroller, which is 45cm I think. If it can be wider, the Baby Jogger City Mini is the way to go for sure. This is a very good price, but it may be the 2010 version.

I bought one and hardly used it because it was a bit wobbly, didn't feel sturdy enough, also I am 5'7" but the handles felt too high and not in a good pushing position.
It was a was a bad buy for us

Thanks! Doesn't look like a good buy. It just has to be smaller than the Quinny which isn't hard . I'll look at your recs.

The BJCM is very user friendly. It has a huge hood, lies flat and folds by simply lifting it up off the ground by a handle on the seat. It's not an offroader, but I'm guessing you'd use the Buzz if you needed a bit more suspension.

I hated our pop. Really really hated it!

The breaks broke, it was always a nightmare to push an I just never found anything I loved about it.

Got a BJCM and love it. Wish I'd had one from the start and it's very easy to push one handed when holding DS's hand now he's walking a lot.
