Revelo users/ Maclaren Super Elite questions

Hi mums!

DS1 is 2.5 (very tall) and has CP. We've just taken delivery of his new and shiny Maclaren Super Elite.

I'm expecting DS2 in March, and although I'm hoping to be able to use a sling as much as possible, the chairs clinic recommended buying a Revelo to clip to the side of the Super Elite for DS2. Has anyone used the Revelo Smorph (or earlier model) here? Are they easy to use/worth the money? We travel on buses a lot.

Also, can you get raincovers for Super Elites?

Thanks, it's a bit vexing that we just got the chair, I'm going to need to buy a shopping basket and raincover I think, which looks like it'll cost the same as a new pushchair anyway!

i think maclaren should make the elites a bit more parent frendly, shocking that it doesnt include a raincover and shopping basket in the price.,>. i think its another way of squeezing the pennies from the most needy!.still best out of the bunch for sn buggies though!

We were lucky and got the basic buggy free from our local authority, apparently Maclaren hasn't sorted out a shopping basket yet! Clearly not designed by a woman.
