Pram suggestions please

3 replies

Fundays12 · 29/11/2018 14:06

Okay I have just found out I am pregnant with my 3rd (unplanned but very much wanted surprise baby). I have 2 kids already one will be 7.5 years old when baby arrives and the other will be 2 years 10 months. We have pretty much most stuff already as we had to buy all new for my youngest baby but I don’t think my joie pram will survive another baby. It’s been used a lot but the salt has got to the wheels as we live in an area that gets a lot of snow plus I am struggling to get a new carrycot for it as it’s the older version (never had the carrycot).

Can anyone suggest a pram please that is light weight, has parent facing option and takes a carrycot. It needs to manoeuvre easily and fold quickly and push easily in most terrains but cost no more than £400 ideally ( it doesn’t need a car seat as I have a maxi cost infant carrier ). I have to be strict in the budget as my other 2 kids need new car seats to ensure all 3 can fit in the back of my car (it’s doable but expensive).Thanks

A second hand bugaboo bee might fit that description. We went with the cocoon instead of the carry cot as it was cheaper.

I have no good ideas, but following as am in exactly the same boat, pregnant with a surprise 3rd and my others will be nearly 8 and nearly 3! Big basket and ability to take a buggy board are on my list of wants.

How about the Mountain buggy swift?

Its compact compared to most that can cope with snow and various terrain. But not overly huge so fine in shops and the car boot.

The main seat is suitable from birth so you could get away without a carrycot. Just add a nice liner or footmuff depending on the season. A carrycot or a soft carrycot also available if you prefer.

mountainbuggy.com/uk/Buy/buggies/swift-Buggy - its currently £350 direct from mountain buggy, but you might be able to find an offer somewhere also. I would def considered getting carrycot second hand if you add, the carrycot becomes a parent facing seat also after 6 months
