Help me find a pushchair! I WANT the Uppababy Vista but out of our price range.....

[SpottyTeacakes]

So, this is my criteria:

-Max £500 preferably including maxi cosi cabriofix but not essential

-Rear and forward facing

-Able to have a buggy board for dd

-Easy to steer/put up/put down. I have a type of muscular dystrophy so am pretty weak and get painful wrists

-Doesn't matter how compact it is as long as it fits in a normal boot, never use public transport etc

I think that's it! Any suggestions gratefully received :)

The uppababy website has prices for the cruz (although i guess maybe different showrooms etc may have competitive prices) and it says £374.99 for the pushchair and then the carrycot is an additional £124.99.

No idea about the versa. The mutsy evo that tiggy recommended looks great tho (i have my own pram dilemma!)

The Versa should be £425 with EVA wheels. It's not confirmed though, nor is the price for GT wheels but I suspect around £500-550? That is just for the pushchair ie no carrycot though.

The Mutsy Evo is a top end pushchair for a low end price. I had one for about a month and thought it was great quality. It worked really well, folded neatly, the seat lies flat and goes upright. Plus the carrycot is included in the price. It ticked a lot of boxes for me - more than most pushchairs.

Right I think I will go for the mutsy evo. I think it's a price dp will be happy with and my lovely friend is lending us her car seat

Do you think I'll need the carry cot? I see you can buy the bits separately.

The Mutsy Evo comes as a package with the carrycot included. You can't just buy the pushchair on its own.

You can use the seat unit from birth but the carrycot is lovely and does flatten down for storage.

I've seen a website where you can buy all the bits individually £173 for the chassis and £96 for the seat, something like that

You are right :o Discount Baby do indeed sell all the parts seperately - I was told they wouldn't be doing this although I suggest not everyone would want a carrycot. So it's great if you can just buy the seat and chassis. Well done!

Sorry that should have been Discount Baby Equipment.

I think I will skip the carry cot and spend the money on a nice cosy toes and buggy board oh and a cup holder for all the coffee I'll need!

This is probably a stupid question, but... is the Musty Evo the same as the Graco Evo???

No it's definitely not :)

Ha ha I wondered that too :)
