Pushchairs
Have you had your pram longer than 12 months????
Nicplus2 · 08/01/2012 20:25
If yes, what is it and why??
I cant seem to stick with one for longer that a few months 
Have hd loads for dd1 in the past, dd2 is now 5 months, am using the oyster but am itching for something new

I have a graco pushchair and have had it since birth, my LO is 18months now and its still going stong, expensive at 150 cos it was a travel system but is lasting well. It carries so much shopping on it for me. :)

I've had my Oyster for a year now and still love it. That hasn't stopped me buying and selling several others though!

My Mothercare Urban Detour is 5 years old and still going strong. I'll miss it when DD starts school next year.
I did have a Phil & Teds and Urban Detour Double as well while the dc's were small, but the urban detour single was still used regularly.

I have the nipper 360 twin and have used it since the twins were born. They are 17 months and i still love it
pramsgalore · 08/01/2012 20:35

Gigondas · 08/01/2012 20:37
Yes - 3.5 years for Mclaren xt.
Does job and never found another that did better job for what I want or that I was willing to pay out for
GwendolineMaryLacey · 08/01/2012 20:37
My iCandy Apple is 4 years old, my Bee is 2 years old and my Techno is 3.5 years old. Not buying any new ones for impending dd2, I love the pushchairs I have.
supadupapupascupa · 08/01/2012 20:41
silvercross 3d is 2.5 and will be using for baby due any day now. Prams are expensive and i don't intend to spend a penny more than i need to on them :-D

McLaren XT - I know they're the boring Volvo of the pram world, but ours has been in constant abuse for nearly 9 years now and still going strong.
oflip · 08/01/2012 20:53
9 Years 
ttc number 2 for 6 out of those 9 years,
Bought it to use for ds.
Its a Graco, it was a whole system and i LOVED it.
Only cost £90 for the whole thing.
Going to finally give it to the charity shop as it is clear there will be no more little flips ever.
WaxyBean · 09/01/2012 12:09
Had the Chameleon for 2.5 years and planning on using it when no.2 makes an appearance too. And we've had a M&P Kato for 1.5 years and still going strong with no plans to replace.
4madboys · 09/01/2012 12:14
yep i have a bugaboo frog i got when ds2 was a baby, he is now 9 and i have used it for him and another 3 babies, use it for 12mth old dd everyday!
also have an instep nipper 360 which i have had for over a year, maybe two years? and that is great as well, bugaboo gets use the most but the nipper is great for going over fields, on the beach etc.
before those two i had a britax, a mamas and papas and a chicco pushchair with ds1, all were crap! got hte bugaboo with ds2 and never looked back :)
4madboys · 09/01/2012 12:16
oh yes i had a phil and teds for a while when dd was little and ds4 couldnt do the long school run, but still used the bugaboo as well, dd slept in the carrycot of it for the first 9mths of her life :)
esselle · 09/01/2012 12:25
I have a Mothercare Urban Detour which I bought for DD almost 8 years ago. I have since used it for DS1 & DS2 and will probably use it for DC4 when they arrive in March.
It has been a great pram which I have been really happy with. I also have a cheaper double stroller which I've had for 2yrs. I am not a regular pram buyer.
Latsia · 09/01/2012 12:52
Quinny Buzz and Inglesina Zippy - nearly 3 years. Phil & Teds Sport - no intention of giving it up anytime soon. The only one I got rid of after about 8 months was my Baby Jogger City Select. Adored it, beautiful pram, but got too hard to push and we live at the top of a hill.

Had a graco quattro tour deluxe travel system for 7 years - only just thrown it out as broke one of the wheels - now only have my smaller mothercare one - which I hate - but DD is now 22mos so hoping wont need one for much longer!
LieInsAreRarerThanTigers · 09/01/2012 13:15
I had an old-fashioned proper pram from a 2nd hand shop (£10 in 1999) then got a new McLaren folding buggy for 3 months plus. We broke that going through mud at a festival when dd was 4. Use the old pram again with ds in 2005 then got a 2nd hand McLaren folder at a carboot sale for £5 which is still in usable condition. I've always been a make-do and mend children on the cheap kind of girl! (They get expensive later, better to put the money into savings to pay for all the trips, uniforms, activities they start doing at 5 - teen, not to mention college fees!)
Tiggywunkle · 09/01/2012 14:29
I have had two Baby Jogger City Mini's and a double one? Does that count as the same pushchair?
aswellasyou · 09/01/2012 15:42
No it doesn't Tiggy! Haven't you had your Peach Blossom for a year now?
Tiggywunkle · 09/01/2012 21:54
No, but I have had two. I had my City Select, Quinny Zapp and Bugaboo Cameleon all for over a year. I swore I would choose one pushchair for DD and choose right - and I did! The Cam. But I was like the OP and just wanted to try other things out. It was finding a double that broke the floodgates though!!!
suzie38 · 09/01/2012 23:40
I had my Frog for around 21 months...Silver Cross pram was 18 months...Graco Citisports are still going strong at almost 2 1/2 years...Had a Nuna over a year, currently using the updated Pepp model.
