marco sky tandem buggy - any experience?

[jamhead]

Have been looking for super lightweight buggy for newborn + dd who is 21 months. Marco sky tandem looks good but wondered if anyone out there has one and can advise? Or could anyone recommend another good product?

I love it I love it I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have been using mine for about 6 months. Lots of space for the DTs. They are 18m.

Really recommend it, but not lightest buggy out there, but very practical and gets into everywhere.

not the lightest buggy mars??? it's like a friggin' tank

hi
i bought one from a mner for my ds who is 22 mths and the new baby..who is due in dec. I havent used it as such apart from around the house but i must admit it is a lovely buggy and i am very impressed. I cant wait to take it out. Ds loves it and there is plenty of room in both the chairs.

wow.... ive never seen that one before!

did u realise that its not suitable until baby is 2 months?

Could you try borrowing a heavier toddler and pushing it with your current one in there too to see how easy it is to push when your baby stops being tiny?

I find most double buggies a night mare to push.... tandems just 'dont steer' (not with respect to this one, ive never tried it) and normal doubles are hard to push and 3 wheel doubles simple dont fit through too many doors to be practicle to push anywhere other than parks!

My fav double is the Phil and teds, 3 wheeler 'tandem style' but can be a single as well, and suitable from birth, and is only the size of a normal single 3 wheeler...

have to say its not eacatly light for getting in and out of the car either.... but at least it is possible to PUSH AND get THROUGH DOORS, and i think that is a VERY rare feature of double bugguies nowadays, and i think BOTH of those features are pretty much essential!

we've got the Phil+teds E3, it's great

It's light(er than the marco), it's folds no bigger than a standard three wheeler, it's easy to push one handed but it is bloody expensive

you must be some kinda wuss frogspawn. I push it every day up and down hills.

It isn't like normal tandems, cos it is built like a single umbrella buggy

Thanks everyone. Will hopefully have newborn in sling for a few months - out of way of marauding toddler. So not a problem that it's only from 2 months+, but interesting it's maybe not as light as I thought.

Can't afford Bill/Teds though it looks excellent.

Going to wait until last minute anyway as dd is suddenly super independent!

oops that should be Phil & Teds (getting confused with 'Excellent Adventure'! - though this pregnancy is frankly a bit of a drag!)

lol!

we know what you mean !!!!
