"My name is MotherGeek & I'm a pram-o-holic".
My 9 month old son has had 4 already, and I am now shopping for a double!!

I know everyone's needs are different, but I was just wondering if you had to recommend one pushchair you've used above all others, which would it be & why?

And which did you hate the most & why?
(It doesn't matter if it's a single, double, pram, stroller, etc).

I'll start:
I LOVE: The Graco Symbio B because it meets all needs from newborn to toddler & is super easy to steer.
I HATE: The Chicco CT06 - bought it for holiday & it broke after 2 days' use. It's so true - you get what you pay for!!

mothergeek Definitely love my P&T, was the best thing I have ever bought! It really is my old faithful :)

spaceal I have no idea LOL! I looked on the website and they don't have the exact one now, the closest is the Zest Vogue. I bought it about 2 years ago and it has little sign of wear, which is excellent considering my school run is a mile each way. Many of the mums who have got children of a similar age and swapped to a stroller at about the same time and had a Maclaren have got very, very worn wheels which seem to be on a bit of a tilt now. The worst I have had is squeaky wheels which was easily fixed with a bit of DH's bike oil.

Loved my old Britax Vigour 4, but wouldn't have touched the 3 or the new rehash with a bargepole.

Hated the chicco liteway, stupid straps, the crotch strap was so short I worried that my nine month old was going to be a castrato if I used it.

Love bjcm and my frog! Hated any 4 wheel stroller and streety. I have had 31 prams with2 children to date c

SoozyWoozy you have no idea how relieved that has made me. I've had no end of people trying to put me off haha. Which model do you have? I'm looking at the Vibe v2 as both seats recline on that.
Hubby suggested last night I carry on using the Graco Symbio B & just use a sling with the new baby. PFFT. He can whistle lol. He's a cheapskate!! xx

I had the old E3 sport, which seems to get better reviews than the Vibe. I wonder if P&T tried a bit too hard to make an already very, very good buggy even better and got a bit carried away? Not sure.

rusmum 31??!! Wow, I'm not sure if I am shocked or in awe :)

Yeah, you're probably right, soozywoozy. The Sport is no longer available is it?
(Or is that what the vibe replaced)?
God, if I don't choose one soon, I really might have to stick with the Symbio B & use a sling pmsl :-/ At least in the early days xx

Love my bjcm and liking my bsmart3 as it faces me.

Hated my britax excel travel system, chicco multiway.

Didnt feel the love for a bug bee either.

M&P beat and voyage buggies were acceptable but not set the streets alight fantastic!
