Sorry can't help there. When I had DD nearly 7 year ago I had to proper battle DH to get an iCandy peach jogger. But it was a fab pram (expensive yes) but the only pram we used for nearly 3 years.

Fast forward to now we are expecting DC2. Went to look at prams and was open at looking at cheaper alternatives. But DH (surprisingly) is sold on the new iCandy Peach. Theyve made loads of fab changes to it. And it goes to a double if you are planning anymore. Think this is what we will be getting and again doubt we'll need another pram.

Also they have a good resale value and with this being the newest one even more so. We sold our iCandy Peach Jogger for £300 last time.

I’ve bought the iCandy peach 2 second hand and it seems pretty good. I honestly can’t notice much difference between it and the newer versions that I’ve been to look at. Lost my battle to persuade my partner to spend the same amount on the buggy as we did the car!!

When you play with it there are tonnes of fab changes. But for us the newer one has a tonnes bigger carrycot and Seat unit goes to 25kg rather than the old 16kg. DD didn't walk till nearly 2 years old and technically was too heavy to be in her pram (not that we stopped using it but it didn't handle the best) I was looking to get an older version for the price difference but the above are big deal breakers for us. Which is a shame cos I love the royal one with the tan handles 🤣

We have the new peach sat in our garage gathering dust! We went for beluga black with black chrome. My due date is today so hopefully wont be long before i get to use it!

Oh I really like the peach too. I think we are going to go for the black frame with black fabric 😀 x

We had a peach 2 for DD. It was great. Amazing to push. Very heavy to put in and out of car, and the seat was pretty small so she grew out of it quite quickly. That said I'd be another one if we ever have a second baby.

We liked the iCandy Peach but it was quite a heavy pram when we tried it in store.

Did lots of researching reviews on Which? etc and we've gone for the Babyjogger City Mini GT. Gets great reviews, is lightweight, folds incredibly easily with a one-handed mechanism, and is only £350 (that's without the newborn carrycot, which is about £150-£200 on top) so a lot cheaper than iCandy, Bugaboo, Uppababy etc.

We’re planning on getting the new icandy for our DD 1 due in December. I liked it but DH REALLY liked it and we have john Lewis vouchers to put towards it so I’ve gone with his preference Smile.

We liked how easy it was to adjust/recline and swap the seats over, the big basket and smooth steering. They seem to have made lots of adjustments to the new model which is what’s stopping us buying an older model.

We’re stuck on colour tho, we love the dove grey but think it will get filthy on 5 mins, esp with a winter baby.

Btw OP Mothercare stock the icandy and you can get money off at their parent events, might be worth looking at the next one (think it’s october)

We looked at the peach this weekend and discounted it because it was so much heavier than most of the other ones in the same price point. It was the only pram the sales lady suggested I shouldn't lift because she was worried (I did and it was heavy). We went with the vista which has many of the same features and is much lighter (a bit cheaper too)
