Hi,

My marco sky has worn out - the brakes have broken and I need to replace it urgently. Can anyone recommend a tandem suitable for these ages please, preferably one that both seats recline as they both tend to fall asleep during the afternoon school run.

I am 5ft tall and walk everywhere and hated the marco sky. I have tried a nipper but it doesn't fit in my very narrow hall so assume a tandem is my only option.

Thanks

Hello Playmobile,

I've just got a mothercare phonix (? spelling), for my 7mth old and 3 year who both love it. I've also had a 4.5 yr old and a 3 yr old in it, and it was fine. I love pushing it and I'm about 5ft3.

Hope this helps

Hi there

As a total pramaholic I cannot recommend the Jane Powertwin enough. it is light, spacious and will turn on a sixpence.

Have also hed a mothercare Phoenix as well and pretty good as heavier child can go in front or back - not much recline to the front seat though without squashing rear childs legs

i have the graco..erm stadium duo i think its full name is, very easy to manouvoure, lovely to oush although when front seat reclined my 2 yr old(tall) mindee doesnt have a 'lot' of sace to kick around, although shes normally asleep at same time so not a prob..the rain cover is pants in windy weather though
