Just looking for opinions if anyone has either. I have looked in the reviews but there is only one

I had a luna and hated it, so did DS. It wasn't any smaller than my Vigour 4+ (precursor to the b smart) once folded, and Ds hated the fact that he couldn't sit upright. Definitely not worth the money. I invested in a Baby Jogger City Mini and never looked back! :o

( Have heard good things about the b mobile on here though!)

There's another review here of the B Mobile.

HypatiaTheProcrastinator · 20/04/2012 10:08

I have a B-Mobile. It's really light and easy to steer, folds down easily and very small. The seat can be almost vertical so good for older children. And there are 3 sets of strap holes that make it realistic to put in a newborn or a 3 year old comfortably. The basket is big and can be accessed easily and has a zip down section at the back to get big bags into. I like the viewing window in the hood. The handlebar is nice and comfortable.
There are two downsides though in that it's wide for a stroller and the hood isn't very big. Make sure you get a 2011 or 2012 one as earlier models were apparently a bit rubbish, especially the brake.

I do really like mine, but I bought it to use on trains thinking I wouldn't use a bigger pushchair and it just never gets used so I'm selling it at the moment.

Thanks both , I have a petite star zia on loan and I'm debating buying a new one because it's so nice to push and small . I can't find a shop that actually has them is stock so I can't try them , or even see them!

Do you want to be able to push one handed? That would make the B-Mobile a better option. I've never pushed a Zia but I often see them with bigger toddlers looking like they're really heavy to push.

What else have you used and what did you think of it/them?

bishboschone · 20/04/2012 10:18

Yes I want to be able to push one handed , no toddler but I can't bear bugged that need 2 hands . The zia is lovely to push . I have a Mothercare my 4 which has spoiled me a bit because it's fantastic to push and very solid but it's too big for everyday use. Any suggestions gratefully received . I actually ordered a bjcm gt but it came damaged so I sent it back and actually it was huge !!

Would you say the b mobile is wider than the zia?

OP posts:
HypatiaTheProcrastinator · 20/04/2012 10:45

Zias are officially 60cm and I've just measured the B-Mobile at 63.5cm wide.

bishboschone · 20/04/2012 10:45

Thanks , not a lot in it then

Hhmm

I think the only way to try one is to order from tesco and take the one I don't like back .. It's annoying though, there are no shops round here that keep them .

OP posts:
HypatiaTheProcrastinator · 20/04/2012 11:03

That is probably the best bet. I've just been looking at prices and I can't believe how much they cost at the moment! Shock

HypatiaTheProcrastinator · 20/04/2012 11:05

They don't come with a raincover by the way, so you'll need to buy one if you like the pushchair. :)

Thank you Smile

We have the bmobile its great we have used it since dd was born along side our bebecar pram now its her full time puschair the only negative I will give is the rear wheels being so wide I can often get them stuck when shopping on the bus etc the wheels kind of stick out wider than the rest of the pushchair so you dont often realise where they are iygwim. However its really light and easy to push dd is very comfy in it.
