Petite Star Zia + travel bag?

Posted a thread recently about a pushchair for the buggy sheds at nursery, and the Petite Star Zia was one of the suggestions. My question is if anyone has the travel bag and can tell me how easy it is to slip the buggy in and out of it? Is it suitable for daily use or is it too snug a fit? Was thinking that would be the best way to protect the buggy from getting dirty etc in the sheds.

Or can anyone else recommend another buggy that is lightweight etc, that has a good travel/storage bag?

Many thanks.

I haven't had the Zia but the Zapp took a bit of getting in and out. I honestly would be sewing a piece of fabric or doctoring a duvet cover, ikea bag or similar to slide it into easily.

Thank you for knocking some sense into me, Tiggy!

I love my BJCE and pushing anything else is going to seem awful :(. I spoke to other mums at the nursery today and one of them told me she regretted spending even £60 on mothercare's basic buggy, and wishes she'd done what someone else did and just bought a second hand off e-bay for £20 as they all get so battered and destroyed!

So I did some browsing...e-bay and gumtree. I still couldn't bring myself to buy something that looked very used, but picked up a bargain...Mamas and Papas Tempo which is in fantastic almost new condition, no marks or scratches at all, for £30 (current Argos price £85).

Seems like the most sensible option. If I end up hating it, can always sell it on - will at least get my money back - and can choose again and get something more substantial if need be!

Thanks Tiggy for making me see sense - this buggy is never going to be pristine and I shouldn't spend so long on it!
