Kurvi 4?

I have sold my Buzz now but still can't decide on a pushchair! I'm still not sold on the Mura and I don't want to hate it like I did with the Buzz.
Has anyone had a Petite Star Kurvi 4? Nursery Value have reworked ones which aren't too expensive so I wondered if anyone would recommend them?

I have just ordered a Kurvi 4 from Nursery Value so will let you know what it's like when it gets here. Fingers crossed, should be here early next week.

Got my Kurvi 4 today and it is fab! It does have a few scratches on the wheels and where the seat unit goes into the frame, but once it's in, you can't see the scratches. To be honest, when I got it out of the box, I thought they had made a mistake and sent me a brand new one! Once I put it all together, you can see a few scratch marks but nothing noticeable.

It felt really light and easy to steer one handed to steer compared to my old Graco pushchair and it is really easy to put together - no tools needed. The adjustable handle bar is great as I'm only 5 foot and my husband is 6 foor.

My only gripes are that the hood doesn't seem to provide enough cover and it can only be folded when the seat unit is forward facing. But I bought it as I plan to do alot of walking so won't need to be folding it up many times. I have an old mamas and papas freestyler with car seat to keep in the car for convenience.
However, for £81, I'm not going to complain! I haven't tested it on rough ground yet and my baby isn't due for another 6 weeks so I can't really provide info on how it performs outside.

It comes with a rain cover but I haven't yet put that on - I ran out energy!! It is very pink. I also ordered the accessories pack, which is a changing bag and a footmuff and I think that you can use part of the footmuff as a pram liner. It didn't seem thick enough to me so I'll be off to babies r us to see what the Kurvi pram liner is like. The changing bag does semm to be a bit on the small side or maybe I'm just used to having big bags.

Overall, I am really, really happy with my purchase - just beware that the shopping basket is tiny. Hope this helps to make up your mind.

I've just had to send my kurvi back as my 12 month old was too long for it, and his head was already resting on the top of the seat (and the hood was in the way). He's 82.5cm (as measured by the hospital last week) and too big - which is a shame as it's a lovely pushchair and so much nippier than my Buzz I'm trying to sell.

Great for a little baba - no good for bigger babies or toddlers
