First Pram...help?

[Dalify]

We're a little overwhelmed! We've been looking for prams for our first due in February. There doesn't seem to be much difference between lots but the prices jump!

We don't want to spend more than £500 and our biggest sell point is going to be space. We will have a dog in the boot wherever we go so need it to fold down well.

Any recommendations? Anything to stay well away from? Something with a car seat included would be a bonus!

It's just all so confusing!

Go to a store with lots to have a play with. Ask your friends about the good or bad points about theirs. Consider second hand (but not the mattress or car seat) - most will have only been lightly used before being changed for something more practical.

Oh, and wait for the sales.

I have a Cosatto, absolutely love it. I bought it from Trendy Baby. They have so much on there heavily discounted! Got the pram, bassinet, car seat & isofix base for £650

Typically you end up buying 1 big pushchair at the start and then needing a smaller one later on, we ended up having three for our boy. A friend of mine has just set up a company mllebaby.co.uk
They do a subscription service and you pay a lot less in the with a lot of convienience.
