Have you seen the new phil and teds Smart buggy? What do you think?

Just been browsing the intraweb again! I know this is new out so not so many reviews around that I can find.

What do people think of the look and specifications of it.

Thanks.

Saw one in town the other day, looked nippy.

I was looking for something different and small folding. I usually end up with a Maclaren but trying to steer away from one if possible just for something else. Finding it hard though!

And as much as I would like a Bee funds won't stretch and wil be using our big pram the most as we walk everywhere, the new small buggy will be just for the car at weekends.

Ooooh I don't know!!!!

Thanks, I am glad it looks nippy, thats what I want!

I really liked the look of it but it's not rear facing. I mean it's so minimalist, the seat unit is begging to be turned round but no. It's such an oversight that it annoys me.

I was thinking that rockbird when I just watched a quick video of it on youtube.

I like the fact its minimalist in looks.

It looks erm very odd. Wouldn't work for me in the slightest, I basically use the buggy as a dumping ground for bookbags/coats/jumpers, use it to put shopping on handles/underneath etc.

That wouldn't happen with a 2 wheel system, plus what if the child decided for some reason it would be fun to throw themselves forwards and bacwards in the seat? Looks like it would be awkward to push, especially with a heavier child.

Oh actually there seems to be a 4 wheel version too

Oh yeah the newest 4 wheel version not the odd looking 2 wheeled thingy they used to sell!!

My Xplory will be used all week as the 'packhorse' for school/shopping etc... as I walk everywhere. I just need something small for the car or if I am going out with a friend its not always easy to get the Xplory plus their buggy in the car!

I love it and so does my daughter...Wanted one as soon as i saw a link to one...I bought mine 2nd hand off eBay...I was a little worried as quite a few people bought them, then sold them straight on...Think they just wanted to test them out...I saved about £50 buying mine as it came with a raincover and Cushy...I wouldn't say suitable as a main or only buggy unless for an older child...Seat is small but my DD is petite so she'll fit in it for ages...Looks very different as i saw DH pushing it at a distance and a very distinctive profile...Hood very handy...Basket rather small so i wouldn't use it if i was going out for a whole day on public transport...Recline isn't great but then DD hates to be reclined anyway and we don't use buggies for sleeping anymore...I live in a hilly area as found the 2 handle design hard to push at 1st as most of my 'wheels' are 1 handled and are easier TBH...Only really downside for me is the front wheels don't lock and it's not freestanding when folded but then neither is my new Bee+...Love the minimilist look as i usually love fiddly bit so a nice change for me...Any other Q and just ask.

Saw it in a shop today and had a look. It's very attractive but the seat is hard! No foot rest unless your kid has the legs of a giraffe either--my 2yo's legs would just dangle uncomfortably. Also agree with others about the seat only facing forward, ridiculous. How hard would it have been for them to make it both ways? It was very light but I think you'd be better off with a maclaren or quinny zapp for small and light though.

I'm not at all keen on the look of it but then I don't like Phil and Ted's Prams anyway.

I do like the look of the new Quinny Zapp Xtra. That folds real small and has a reversible seat unit. I need a double buggy now though.
