Hi everyone! We are due to have our baby soon. We have been spending quite a bit of time looking at prams and it’s really difficult to figure out which pram is best. Everytime I settle on one I read something that sways my decision 😅 We live in a semi-rural village so ideally looking for a pram that can cope on different terrains. I also felt that I wouldn’t want something extremely heavy. We would be looking for a full travel bundle ideally.

So far on our shortlist we have

Venicci Tinum
Uppababy Vista
Silvercross Reef

Also open to other ideas! Does anyone have any experience with these brands?

I have Uppababy Vista too and love it. We are going to he using it for our second.

Big basket is fab!! Wheels are good and the suspension. So nice and easy to push. Very sturdy.

I have a small boot (Nissan Juke) and I have to pop a wheel off to fit it in but it is so easy to do! You just push the button in the middle of the wheel and it comes straight off and goes back on easily again so it hasn't been a bother to me.

I would say read and watch some you tube reviews...which I am sure you did already. Then if you get chance to have look at them in shop to make final decision. I see some people recommending completely off road buggies which I don't think you are looking for. I also live on the edge of small market town/countryside and definitely don't need massive 3 wheeler to go about. I would say all 3 models are close competitors and the best is to get hand on them before you buy, especially if you want to invest in new travel system. I got myself GB Maris and by the look at your choice they are all type of buggies I would get. For me folding small narrow with seat and freestanding was very important, also adjustable hoody that goes well down in sunny days is great feature.

Nah, if you mean the Out n About then it's also brilliant in town, I've used mine in central London etc. Not huge at all, just handles brilliantly. It folds in half so is very compact.

For semi rural I wouldn't want anything else.

Only downside is the basket size.

@BoogleOogle depend what kind of rural you live and your lifestyle, I don't need massive wheels where I live. I can easily fold my buggy holding baby in arms and it's freestanding slim in small porch which was very important to me, plus large extendable canopy which I missed with previous children buggies. If you are out off maintained routes a lot then I understand your choice. My area is well developed so even going wild canal trail, parks etc i am on flat smooth surface.

I would really like to know this too! I have the venicci shadow & love everything about it except the seat unit. Really want to find out if I can buy a newer seat unit & if it’s compatible with the older shadow model…
