Recommendations for a cream or pink travel system under £400

I can’t decide on a pram (travel system) that I like at all. I don’t want to spend more than £400. I’m having a girl so like the idea of a little bit girly .. like a nice cream or baby pink nothing in your face. I need the car seat,carry cot and pushchair. (Car seat is not a must but preferably) and most importantly I don’t want one where the child grows out the toddler seat super fast! Any recommendations???

I would advise against cream, pink or any light pastel colour. If you actually plan to use the pram it'll get covered in mud and rubbish, crumbs, grass. Also if you have a second child and it's a boy then everyone will ask how your baby girl is if you have a pink pram.

Get something that hides the dirt and add a pink blanket. My girl had a marvel super heroes pram cover though so maybe I'm the wrong person to offer advice.

Pink and cream will just look dirty.

Black.

Black is your pram / pushchair / car seat friend.

Thankyou but this is my second and last child, maybe not cream but all I’m seeing is greys! But maybe I could just use pink blankets ..

My SIL has this for DN. You definitely don't want anything too light in colour because it will get dirty despite your best efforts!

I love this and was really thinking about it but my cousin had it and has had a nightmare with the car seat!!! If your car doesn’t have isofix then standard seatbelts do not reach around it because it’s so big??

Black is such an ugly colour for a pram, I’m glad my DDs were born in the 90’s, when the choice was so much better.

Mind you, I don’t wear black either, just think it’s an awful colour.

I agree with this. You need a practical dark colour if you get cream or pale pink it will look grubby very quickly.
I don't believe in pink for a girl and blue for a boy but I know some people do so if you have another child and have a boy would you still willing to use it? Prams are too expensive to only use for one baby!

Off topic but what upholstery cleaner do you have?

Lilyargin · 04/09/2026 23:33

Buy second hand. Better for the environment, cheaper for you. Why do you need a brand new item at the cost of our planet?

I have a yoyo which currently has a turquiose seat & hood and pink umbrella and bag. All the coloured bits are interchangeable and machine washable, so I buy on vinted if I want a new colour! You can get a 2nd hand one within budget and the seat is good until 4. I have car seat adaptors for a properly safe Cybex seat.
