DS is 20 months. He is not a bad walker, but is definitely not at a stage where I would consider not having a pushchair.
He is tall, and heavy (over 13KG). Searching the recent threads makes me less anxious about the '15KG weight limit', but his size is still a consideration.
DH & I are tall (5'9" & 5'11")
Our current pushchair is an ancient and very well used Jane Carerra C. The tires are bald, the chassis leans to one side, it veers off down slopes in pavements, the brakes don't work etc etc etc. It would be hard to imagine anything worse.
We are London based, and the pushchair gets used a lot on buses & the tube. While our car isn't tiny, it is always absolutely full of crap outdoor kit.
So, any advice on a lightish, compact, 4 wheeled, manouverable pushchair with properly adjustable handles for the tall. Added bonuses are reasonable storage and not too bulky when folded. I am trying not to spend more than £200 but would consider 2nd hand.
I had assumed I would get a fairly basic Maclaren, but the wheels look a bit crappy.
