Lightweight parent facing stroller??

Can anyone recommend a pushchair that is suitable for a 2 month old? I currently have the silvercross 3d but my dd is quickly outgrowing the carrycot part. I still want to be able to see her so have been looking for a parent facing stroller but not having much luck! So far I quite like the quinny zapp xtra but it seems very low down. Is there something out there that is similar but where the baby is higher up? Thanks :)

The bugaboo bee is the obvious lightweight parent facer but like the zapp xtra it's also low down. The stokke scoot is higher up the seat is a bit odd, there is only a lie flat position and upright, nothing inbetween. Also no calf rest so legs dangle until they are big enough to reach the footrest. The graco evo is a little larger overall but still lightweight. Ditto the icandy cherry.

Less lightweight in the lifting sense there's the babystyle oyster, joie chrome, mutsy evo. I'm sure there are more, that's just what's coming to mind right now.

The Njoy Bubble is supposed to be Ok, very light, more of a stroller though really. And probably also quite low down.

There are a lot of heavier ones though as Parties says.

I'm looking for one as well, and would like one that lies flat. Has anyone used a Joie Mirus? It's cheap, looks light and narrow, but I think you end up with the brakes at the front and swivel wheels at the back in parent facing mode. We have a £200 budget so a bit restricted, although second hand is an option.

I tried the Mirus in a shop and it wasn't nice to push. I have had the Bumbleride Flyer, so I kind of expected something similar, but its not. The seat also seemed very small, but I have to say after trying out the handling, I moved on very quickly!
