Kidsit or Easy X rider?

I have a 4 month old as well as a 3 year old, and am looking for a board that I can attach to the buggy for her to sit or stand on. The buggy, which is a Bugaboo Chameleon, also has to be taken down stairs to go outside.
I was wondering if somebody could recommend either the Kidsit or Easy X Rider or have an opinion which of these might be better. I am small and am concerned that the board may stick out and make it hard to walk. I was also wondering if they are easily foldable and able to be stored under the buggy or folded up when not in use.
Thank you!

I had an easy x rider, small and easy to fold it is not. From what I have seen of the kidsit the same applies. Unless you desperately need the seat then I would go for something less bulky.

Saw someone walking with a kidisit yesterday and caught my eye but they didn't look like they were having the easiest time pushing - think it is similar to easy x rider as Ihateparties suggested.

Personally I would go for the bugaboo board. It's made for it and easily clips up or uncoils and fits in basket.

However you do realise how heavy a 3 year old on a board will be?! We had the same pram and a board for newborn and 17 month old. By 2.5 years it was too heavy to push really so he had to walk

I have an easy x but only because I need a seat and harness for a 19 month old. For a three year old I would just use a regular board and let her stand.

I'd get the bugaboo board, I really liked it on my gecko. Didn't have any issue with weight, pushed it until 98th centile ds was over 3.5, steering one handed was no problem.
