Can anyone help with comparisons of these please? and also help with the following.

Does either fold with the seat on?

Can you used the carrycots for longterm overnight sleeping?

Price wise how do they match up, can't see a price for the apple anywhere?

Thanks in advance.

I initially had the Cameleon and now the Apple.

I had about 3 months of bliss with my Bugaboo and then started to have probs. I seemed to have the problem that a lot of Mum had with the screws on the handle bar and then my brake stopped working. I was told with both faults that they would both be solved in around 10 days but the handle bar took 33 days and I received a new chassis for the brake bar after 41 days and then this too started to go wrong after 4 months in which I prompty returned my Bugaboo for an Apple.

I have no problems what so ever with the Apple. The quality is what you dream of from a British company.

I always think the chrome looks a bit much on the Peach...

I have had all 3 and I would absolutly say the Peach is the bast of all 3.. and less expensive than a brand new bugaboo.. it folds really compact. Carrycot is safe to use for overnight sleeping and the option of making into a double later on.. Its lovely to push steer and my littleman kept getting his arms out of the straps and unexpectidly pulling the breaks on my Cam (PITA) they were at a perfect hight for him to get at!

Look here goes ill give it to you all straight. Money is no problem to us and we wanted a top of the line buggy and we narrowed it down to the icandy apple and the bugaboo cameleon, we read lots of reviews from lots of different websites and have come to the conclusion that on this pretty daft celebrity status thing the cameleon seems to be winning BUT and a very big BUT, the cameleon is far too low and i personally think people look a little neddy pushing one. Being a celebrity myself im opting for the classier apple which is a bit heavier but at least my kids arse will not be scraping along the pavement and if i want to kiss my child in its carrycot i will be able to. Dont get brainwashed by the cameleon just because madonna had one. As i said before, im a celebrity and i went for the classier and better apple. You get my drift?

PMSL at Apple being a classy pushchair. Babys do so worry about being considered chavs whilst they are pootling along shitting their pants Grin
