Phil and Teds dilemma

[Cookiesandcoffee]

I am in need of your expert advice.. I think I'm going to treat myself to a new pushchair as had problems with mine.. Really like the P&Ts buy didn't realise there were more than one model! Navigator vs dot vs classic ?? Help! Only need for one child - currently 6 months old. Have looked on their website and still undecided. Have found the classic for £305 on amazon which seems a great deal (especially as this wont be my first !) and don't want to spend tooo much. But why is it cheaper?!

Do you only need it for one child on a permanent basis? The dot and navigator have reclining second seats, the classic doesn't, that's relevant to double use but not single. I suspect but am not sure there is a difference in weight distribution, they vary in how easy they are to tip up a kerb.

Thank you! My eldest is starting school andi really have no intention of having any more so the double isn't an issue really. My babies have all been long so the length thing does concern me. Would we vote navigator ? I keep staring at the comparison on their website getting nowhere. Have not yet come across a decent second hand- am on the lookout !!

I've had loads of P&Ts over the last 10 years.

I recently bought a brand new Dot and was really disappointed with the quality of it compared to older models that I have had.

My current P&T is the Vibe and I really love it.

There are so many secondhand ones available but it is a bit of a gamble unless you can view one before committing to buy.

My order of preference:
Vibe
Verve
Dash
Sport
Dot

We got the Navigator with double kit for when ds2 arrived. Having had a Quinney Buzz for ds1 I was really disappointed with the P&T.
However as tandems go it's pretty damn good, just wouldn't be my first choice for a single.

I've had a couple of P&Ts - currently have a Navigator and its my favourite so far (lots of the niggly bugs from earlier ones ironed out). I love them as doubles, but don't think I'd recommend as a single - they're expensive and I think that's mainly because of the double factor, they have a tiny shopping basket, and they are a faff to recline (silly pull straps instead of an easy catch).

If you're not tied to a double I'd definitely consider something else.
