I am stuck as to which pram to purchase. So was wanting your opinions please/suggestions on good prams!!

I was initally wanted a 3 wheeler but after seeing them in the shops they dont look very comfy for a new born.

So i want something that lies flat for a new born then turns into a pushchair/stroller.

I have looked at travel systems and would consider a smallish one as i only have a small boot.

So i am after something suitable from birth, small and light and easy to put up and down. Any suggestions?

Thank you

Guernesygirl - where did you purchase the sola from i am having trouble finding places that sell it?

So far I am quite interested in the Sola and Surf.......

I am a huge fan of the My3. Love the fact that the pram becomes a buggy seat very easily. When DD was 6months I could swop between the two depending on whether she needed a nap or not. Also easy to use rain cover and lovely cosey foot muff (included). My tips would be to see what is included as extras really add up and see how easy the rain cover is to use.
The Britax 3 and 4 are also big favourites with my friends and similar to the My3

We have an iCandy peach. I love it. You buy it as a stroller with a carrycot to lie a newborn. It's super easy to put up and collapse and looks great too!

123Nellyc - Sola is a M&P brand and you should be able to get it from their stores or online. I heard that they do a version called the Zoom (may have the name wrong!) that is the sola in black plus the carrycot (so suitable from birth) for a good package price. Maybe just a thrilling rumour though Grin

I went for the silver cross surf in linen with a green snug and got it from winstanley pramworld. Silver cross are one of those brands (like icandy) who don't sell online, but the shop will give you a quote if you email / phone. They were very helpful.

I checked it with a few other places to make sure I got the best deal. Just google it and go to the shopping results, which will list the main shops who have it in stock. I got the impression that people are competitive on price, so always worth shopping around for the best deal.

They delivered to Guernsey for £30 - may be less or free to the UK depending on which shop you buy from though.

Make sure you check the guarantee and process / costs for repairs should the pram break.

Excitedmummy2be, loved the icandy peach, so sleek!

We have Stokke Xplory.

Have yet to use it, but the test child we tried it on loved it! And then had a tantrum when put back in her normal pram.

Cannot wait to use it. Love that baby is up so high.
