Right, i've narrowed it down to those 3. They are all similar price (about 59.99). Can't quite figure out the difference between the triumph and the quest. The chicco one has free footmuff with it, which would be handy now, but ds probably wouldn't even fit in it next winter.
I can't decide, so any opinions, good or bad gratefully recieved.

O.k, decided to make a desicion myself for once. Went to order the Quest off kiddicare.com for 59.97, but then it adds 10.42 VAT. I didn't notice that it said anywhere before hand that the price didn't include VAT. It was 69.99 i think, with the VAT

O.k, now this is weird. If you go onto the kiddicare website, and look at the quest, it says it's 59.99. If you then go onto another site, and then go backwards to kiddicare, the price of all the pushchairs has gone down by about 9 pounds. Weird or what. It only works if you go back to the site after you've already been on.

Out of the 3 you've mentioned, I'd get the quest. Don't know anything about the Chicco (although I have a little Chicco Caddy which is fine as a 'shopping buggy'. Between the other 2 I'd have the Quest. It's only a tiny bit heavier 5.6 as opposed to 5kg, but the wheels are a little bigger and it has a leg rest which my DS always missed when he was in the Caddy buggy. It just looks a bit more comfy and helps them sit up straight more easily when they're little. Also, the quest is bit more comfy.

how did that winky smiley get there? I don't even know how to do that?

the triumph folds down quite small for the bus tho. dont know if the quest lies right back, but the chicco does. chicco and triumph are lovely to push.

Right, i've ordered it. I had the Maclaren Quest. There was 2, one was 60 and one was 70. I had the 70 one as it looked alot more sturdy than the other one, for some reason. Have no idea when it will come, but i'm so excited, and very very sad i know

I ordered the Quest from Kiddicare last Wednesday and it arrived on Thursday. Very pleased with it and I think I made the right choice, so you must have done too!
