if you could create your perfect pushchair what would it have?

[nappyaddict]

mine would lie 100% flat (as flat as a carry cot)

have good suspension and bounce

umbrella fold

lockable and swivel air tyres

rear facing

why doesn't it exist!!

have got a mutsy which doesn't have the umbrella fold and although it has a carry cot, the seat unit doesn't lie back.

Wheels.

Seat.

Handle.

Basket.

Big sign saying "hands off, pramaholics, this one goes with me to my grave!"

A motor.

Or someone to push it for me.

Chloroform imbedded in the material.

A muffler to stop the sound of crying.

a small boarding school attached to the back

oh yes forgot the biiiiiiiiig shopping basket

Someone to push it and feed, change and pay for the child within.

nappyaddict's requirements plus:

Padded straps that go short enough for a newborn and long enough for a 4 year old.

Washable, comfy fabric.

Waterproof cover that fits well and can be easily attached/ removed.

Hood and footrest that fit a 4 year old's height.

Easily attachable carseat and carrycot.

Forward-facing option.

Really light weight
Carry strap
Narrow enough to fit through small doorways & around cluttered shops
A raincover that folds up properly & somewhere to store it
Huge basket
Cup holder for parent
Tray for child
Self cleaning

something that folds up easy

An umbrella holder for parent so that you don't get wet through. (only got 2 hands and need them to push the pushchair).

juuuule - such a thing exists

Oh wow -how long have they been out?
I missed that one didn't I?

A robot to push it.

someone advertised them on here a while back juule - that is the only reason I know about them.

Light but untippable with buggyboard so shild can choose.
Wide enough for my 1yr old giant's broad shoulders.
Turns on a dime (My Mclaren Vogue does actually).
Fits in a Mini's boot.
Oh, I dream of a cupholder but you don't get them on umbrella fold ones do you?

• roomy on the inside but small on the outside in the manner of a tardis (including the shopping basket)

• weightless to push

• folds to the size and weight of a small umbrella

• be able to hover so you can park it on top of stuff and never get stuck going up kerbs.

• seat that swivels to stop toddler craning out to see things going past

• ability to push itself while I nap on the large bed behind the handlebars

It would be the Maclaren Techno Classic, but it would have interchangable wheels for rugged terrian, and then the little ones for city/tube travel. And, you would be able to stick an infant car seat into it for a travel system. The interchangable wheels seems a no brainer. Why haven't they thought of this? Is it because they want you to buy a new one when the wheels wear out?

a double suitable from birth, with a buggy board, that renders all children upon it weightless...
and that you can hose down.

(not for me though, i'm done with buggies - i made them all walk to school today, my youngest will be 3 next week)
