This is a new pram out and it looks fab. As it's so new i've found only one parent review on the net!
have you got one or seen on demo'd in a shop? i'd love to hear what you think about it.

And I would say to BeckyPH definitely get a replacement pushchair!

In my experience (see my previous post) this problem just gets worse, and Oyster should replace it for you, specially as it seems it was delivered with a fault rather than a fault that developed over time.

I don't know who you purchased it through - we bought from Mothercare and they've been very good with replacing faulty pushchairs.

I have mixed feeling about the buggy:

Advantages:

-Small so easy to manoevre and fold into car.

-Easy to swap carrycot, seat unit & car seat.

  • Adjustable handle (good for taller people!).


Disadvantages:

-Although helpful on the phone, as the manufacturer, they are unobliging when it comes to problems with the buggy and leave you to battle with the supplier.

-Problem collapsing chassis, no replacement was offered when taken for inspection - extremely inconvenient.

-Stitching easily came away on seat unit cover, had to ask for replacement.

  • Small basket underneath and difficult to access when carrycot/seat unit/ car seat in place.


  • Some companies DO NOT give refunds for Babystyle items (e.g. BAMBINO DIRECT and affiliated companies).


Hope this is useful x
