Hi! I'm trying to narrow down what Pram to get. It's our first baby, due in November and we live in the countryside so want something suitable for all terrains (but not an out and out off road Pram). List at the moment is iCandy Orange, Uppababy Vista, Bugaboo Fox or Joolz Geo. any pros/cons from people with experience?! It's a minefield!! Thanks!! L

No experience of the prams in your list but I live semi rurally and have a baby jogger city mini GT.

DC is 6 months old and we have no complaints about it so far, we have recently swapped from the pram carrycot to the main seat. I'd say it's not an all out off roader but handles uneven paths etc really well.

We live in a village and we bought an Uppababy Vista two years ago, when DD was born. It's sturdy and easy to steer and has never let us down. Will be using it for no.2 and expect to sell it/pass it on after. It was flippin' expensive (I count it as our one pfb purchase) and is massive, so you need good boot space in the car and to consider whether you will have room to get it on a bus/round a shop with small aisles.

I had a mountain buggy, super robust, took to outer Hebrides amongst other places, loved it.

I’ve got the orange and it’s good, but probably not as all terrain as the peach with air tyres? I think air tyres make the difference on bumpy tracks/paths
