My friend has just bought one of these for FIVE HUNDRED QUIDS!! Huh! Seems like a lot of dosh to me. I told her I'd get the mumsnet verdict on whether or not they're worth the cash.

Oh God, someone please tell me it's not that great - have recently spent £380 on a Mamas and Papas pliko and carrycot. £500 is VERY expensive, though !!!!

i think they look brilliant. i was in amsterdam in feb and everyone had them. wish i had instead of the flippin maclaren techno whose wheels kept getting stuck in the tram lines and cobbled streets!! i'd love one but don't think i could justify £500! anyway only bought a kiwi explorer this time last year, but was wondering if i could sell that and get a bugaboo?

Saw someone struggling with one in snow if that is any comfort. Don't know if the small wheels are supposed to lock but look like a supermarket trolley going through marshmallow !

I have a friend with one and she LOVES it ... I think they look soooooo ugly though ... Ive got a Jane Powertrack which is fantastic and much better looking !!!!
