Here is my honest review about Mutsy Igo. I remember how less reviews and opinions there were out here when I bought Mutsy Igo myself.
I hope it will help someone to make decision easier.
First of all both Mutsy Igo carrycot and pushchair look fabolous. Nice design and fabrics. I have received quite many compliments;)
Main reason for actually buying it was it folds easily and is small and compact. We did´t have to change our car, cause it would not fit to car´s luggage room. I really know some families who has done that.
I can lift it and I´m not lifting athlete:) It fits through the doors. I have heard there are prams that are too wide. Also is good that weels are removable, gives some more space in trunk.

Great that handbar is adjustable. If I left it sometimes position that my husband used I instantly felt how my shoulders got tense.
Carrycot is big enought, baby fitted there exactly till she did not want to lie anymore. Only disadvantage at the begging was too wide window (cold and wind reached to baby easily).
Pushchair has 3 different seating positions. Baby can sleep completely lying down. That´s really good. Extendable seat canopy is perfect, can´t imagine stroller without it. Also is great that you can use seat towards to you and face forward. One discomfort is that it folds only one way.
Our fold-lock for some reason do not work but it would be much handy (especially when travelling) if it does.

With special adapters (must be purchased separately) You can use all main baby carriers (Cybex, Maxi-cosi etc.) Generally good selection of accessories. Specially I am thankful for foot muff (my baby have made all her naps outside even in winter and muff keeps her really warm) and booth cover (only do not know how it should be fixed properly, no instruction in web).
Imho no shopping bag is necessary. Basket below is just enought.

Major disadvantage that Igo has is suspension. It shakes quite heavily and I am not sure is it good for baby. If you are using it only in city with great roads it is okey but mutsy igo for landscapes or snow is no go.
I was thinking of changing foam weels into air tyres but they have only rear ones and seller thought there would not be effect.
Triggers are sometimes complex to operate. They do not stay in position so I have to use both hands at the same time to take seat off.
I have heard that 2015 version have improved both of these shortages so if its so and they are really eliminated then Mutsy Igo is deffinetly worth that amount of money!:)
