armadillo flip

[comeagainforbigfudge]

I'm a FTM. Baby not due until June.

Started looking at prams/travel systems.
I'm liking the armadillo flip so far.

I have a Fiat panda so need something that is quite compact when folded and this is looking good. Seems quite straightforward to fold as well.

Just wondering anyone has one already and what their thoughts are on it?

Thank ypu

I have one and I love it. It's easy to use - the fold is easy and it's light enough to lift in and out of the car easily. The steering is great, and DS seems really comfy in the seat. The only slight criticism I have is that the handle isn't height adjustable, but it's fine for me at 5'8 and DH at 6'. The seat is suitable from birth, but for a newborn I think I'd like either a carrycot or the newborn cocoon.

If you have any other questions let me know!

oh that's good to hear about height. That's one of my concerns. I'm also 5'8" and dh is just over 6'

Think I shall look at it properly again take dh with me if I can drag him out of bed

Thank you becky

I have one and I love it :) It is in fact the second pushchair I've bought for pfb because previous one didn't have a parent facing option and I missed chatting to him on long walks again. Anyway it's great - easy to fold, really comfy seat (might be coincidence but his naps have hugely improved in it since we got it), nippy and narrow so great for public transport (we're in london), huge hood and massive shopping basket. Win win win. I'm
5'7" and DH is 6' so similar heights to you!

Hi, I have this pushchair and think the carry cot is great, although the carrycot is a bit of a pain for fitting in the boot of the car. I'm not entirely convinced it is usable from birth without the carrycot though, as I can't figure out how you tighten the shoulder straps enough for a small baby? Maybe someone can tell me otherwise?

Hi just to say I have the flip xt which does have an adjustable height handlebar. Fits in my tiny boot and folds a treat!
