Pushchair recommendations

Hi

Not sure if i am posting in the right area , however i am looking for lightweight pushchair recommendations from you lovely knowledgeable people :)

My LG is 16 months old and we are still using the pushchair that came with the travel system. Tbh i think it's too big for her as she always ends up slouching and I need to prop her back up. Shes 9th centile for weight and 25th for height, so a little smaller.

Im looking for one:-

That's suitable for all road types as go country walks

  • Is in one piece for folding

  • Would prefer option of parent facing but not essential at this stage

  • Easily adjustable straps - is there such a thing as strollers with the same type of harness fitting as car seats ? It's such a pain resizing them all the time.

I'm keen to get the city jogger mini gt , but wondering if there were better (cheaper) options out there?

Thanks for reading - sorry it's long !

Bugaboo bee, 2nd hand.

I went through so many between my two. The best one that lasted was a silver cross pop. The others just didn’t last two minutes as we did loads outside in all terrains.

Interested in this thread?

Micralite are supposed to be good and can be found well priced second hand

We were always out in the country, in fact our children don’t know any different from being out and the three year old can easily do 10-15 miles now (terrain dependant), although we also had a child carrier for the rocky stuff

Joe litetrax 3 as alternative to city mini?

MamaHechtick · 11/01/2019 23:02

IMO bjcm GT is worth the money, or worth looking for a second hand one. Otherwise an out and about nipper.

Out and about nipper 360. Very practical
