I really wanted to be a one pushchair mother.

But I don't think I'm going to make it Grin Please help me release my inner pram addict!

We have a Britax B Smart that we've absolutely loved so far. I love the big hood, the big wheels, the parent facing, the leg rest, the recline positions and the basket.

I don't love having to take a wheel off to get in the boot of my punto. Or the fact that it is getting quite heavy now.

DD is 16 months and very mobile and stroppy independent, I've probably another 8 or 9 months of her being in there if I gaffer tape her down I reckon. She's not fussed about facing backwards any more.

I was thinking BJCM, second hand. But I'm not sure about the dangly legs - she's dinky so her feet won't be resting on anything for a while yet. Is the angle of the leg rest part ok? And I've heard that there isn't much back support and she might end up slouching - yay or nay? How does it compare to the Elite?

I'm not convinced about the B Agile, and for a while I wanted the Bee but I've gone off that too. Is there anything else I might like?

UPDATE! So, the pushchair arrived on Thurs, I've been using it all weekend.

The handle is reasonably low, but actually at the perfect height for me, and DH hasn't commented on it (he's nearly 6ft) so it's all good.

It's so nippy and light! It's a complete revelation after lumping the B Smart around. I still love my big green wheely machine, but this is so good for us now.

The 4 wheels make it really stable as well. And we fitted a HUGE pumpkin in the basket this afternoon.

Now I just need to stop looking at pushchairs! Thanks again for all your advice.
