Does this help? Scroll down to the bottom? The seat dimensions are on there too. You can deselect the a peach and put the Chameleon in, but not all the measurements etc are there. In Australia the main Peach seat is certified to 25kgs. My tall DD has loads of room and unlike the Vista, the hood slides way, way up the frame. The liner comes out too. It will easily last until DS is four.

Tiggywunkle · 24/10/2011 22:11

We saw that a while ago...it's fab! I like the lift bit!

MonkeyJuice · 24/10/2011 22:21

Thanks for that link Tiggy - the peach looks really luxurious and comfy!.....How much are peaches these days? (They are one of the buggy brands that keep the prices a secret from the internet aren't they)?
Nice to see some real pics of the Red vista colour too, it's nice and not overly tomatoey (as appears in some other web pics). I don't blame you at all for preferring the peach! I think I'd quite like to try one of those! [hgrin]

suzie38 · 24/10/2011 22:27

iCandy is one pushchair that i've never felt the desire to try...If i had one i think i'd go for the Cherry though the Strawberry looks nice.

Tiggywunkle · 24/10/2011 23:01

ICandy have all their prices on their website these days. The prices should be at the bottom of that link (well the double one anyway). The single is £595 though. I love the Peach - really love it. It was refreshingly good getting my first one after having the Chameleon. It does take some beating to be honest. I would love a Strawberry though...
The red vista was surprisingly non metallic!! I don't really like metallic colours.

Tiggywunkle · 24/10/2011 23:02

I can't believe you guys haven't tried an iCandy Shock

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 00:39

now youve got me looking at icandy peach's!

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 00:49

how do you rate the cherry?

fairimum · 25/10/2011 09:54

I loved my cherry, but the seat isn't very big - infact i see my vista as an upgraded version of the cherry - better wheels for using everywhere and HUGE seat unit!

MonkeyJuice · 25/10/2011 10:23

I love the orange and red peach. It looks gorgeous! However I really must hang onto my Vista as the huge basket is very much needed. I'm loving the way it looks much more now I have the black covers on it. My silver nomad snuggle bag looks fab with the black.
I've machine washed the yellow hood and its come up lovely. The boards in the seat can't be removed so it won't fit in my washing machine. I'll have to scrub it in the bath tub. It's not very grubby, but could do with a freshen up.
I have the "beetlejuice" bumpaloop bar cover on for Halloween!

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 10:37

right,anyone want to help me find some bargains?
i want a bugaboo bee+,with footmuff and hood....help me find the cheapest,im not too fussy about colour would prefer khaki or blue(not pink)but i want new....help!

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 10:38

oh and what was the bumper bar you used suzie,i'll need that too!

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 10:41

right,im confused,does the bugaboo board fit too any of them,or do i have to get a specific bee+ one?

same q for the footmuff Confused

MonkeyJuice · 25/10/2011 10:41

Royal Fail are holding my Micralite wheels hostage until I've paid fees. Tracking info says they're notifying me of cost...no doubt their own expensive admin fee will be added.
I wonder how many days that will take. Official notification of fees not arrived yet. They've had the parcel 2 days already!

MonkeyJuice · 25/10/2011 10:42

Bugaboo board comes with connectors for cam and bee+ .

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 10:45

cheapest ive found is £553 for bee+, hood,buggy board and footmuff...

aswellasyou · 25/10/2011 11:48

I've just seen that the Quinny Moodd is going to be £599, which I think is too much considering what else you could get for that price.

Frigg, I'll have a look for you.

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 11:57

thanks aswell,you are the bargain queen [wunk]

Tiggywunkle · 25/10/2011 12:01

I can't look at the Moodd without seeing an updated version of the Buzz. I am guessing that's the price just for the pushchair and the carrycot etc is extra. But I guess they are putting it in the iCandy price range??
The Peach basket is huge. I can get as much into it as the B-Dual or a double pushchair basket even with both seats on! I remember loving the Peach basket after the enclosed Bugaboo one. I just wish the Peach had a phone / keys pocket somewhere. I still think the punnet on the Strawberry is genius for those items and a raincover. The Peach is just so sturdy. My first was red but I will get another in Blackjack to suit my buggysnuggles.
My last admin fees for customs has been £9.50 which is a lot really!

MonkeyJuice · 25/10/2011 13:15

Have been charged £25 vat and £8 clearance fee by parcel force. Currently the offroad wheel sets are costing me £77 each! Not sure I'll make my money back selling spare set.

aswellasyou · 25/10/2011 13:28

I haven't managed to find anything much cheaper.

I assume you found it at Lullaboo Baby for £553.95.
Another option is to buy the Bee with hood from Snowflakes for £425. Then buy the footmuff and buggy board from Mothercare for £124.96 (they're on buy one get one half price) and go through Quidco to get 5% (£6.25) cashback. That's a total of £543.71.
Or you could get over your fear of phone calls and call Baby Baby Online, who I think would have a list price of about £560 but are likely to give a discount over the phone. That's where we bought are B-Dual from-they were really good and they're not far from us.

FriggOmortisFRIGG · 25/10/2011 13:42

thanks aswellas,i think i'll stick with lullaboo,it's just good to know ive got it the cheapest i canGrin

aswellasyou · 25/10/2011 14:12

I couldn't find any working discount codes which is usually what makes the difference.
