I've completely failed to actually see what the bloody thing looks like. WTF is that "gallery" all about?

NikkiBFG · 25/05/2007 20:13

I like it!

Just emailed them the following comment "What an utterly useless website. It shows pretty much chuff all about the push chair and loads about some model poncing about at a photo shoot with the pushchair artfully placed in the background somewhere. Complete waste of space."

After looking at it for about 10 mins it is growing on me. Anyone know how much it is?

LIZS · 25/05/2007 20:30

Its kind of Micralite shaped without the odd sized wheels. The page doesn't fit my screen though.

bagpuss · 25/05/2007 20:32

Hmm, wheels and frame remind me of the Starck Maclaren I saw in John Lewis a few weeks ago.

Judging by the initial MN reaction to Anthea Turner Perfect Housewife (sneery hilarity and certainty that it was a pants idea, in which I completely joined) the Dazzle will be the biggest success since the Mini.

hmmm. it's a PUSH CHAIR. now if they'd invented something useful like a failsafe device to get your baby to sleep/stop your toddler tantrums/stop your 6 year old behaving like she's hormonal and make sure your 16 year old passes their exams then perhaps they'd have a point.

hatwoman · 25/05/2007 20:42

I have no doubt it'll be a hit. It's a Sliver Cross. really all they had to do was get it into production and decide on the price. and the website...

SoupDragon · 25/05/2007 21:27

Oh the poushchair looks fine. But it's a pushchair so why are they advertising a skinny model??

laughinglil · 25/05/2007 23:37

cause we all look like that after we have a baby

LynetteScavo · 26/05/2007 01:18

It's Silvercross, but not as we know it.

beckmo · 26/05/2007 06:02

LOL!That's even made me laugh and I've been awake since 4am. Pushchair looks alright, light and has carrycot, but what are they thinking with that website and that women prancing around?Is thats upposed to sell it to me? Someone needs to talk to their marketing team.

tegan · 26/05/2007 08:26

Showed dh yesterday and he absoultely loves it

nearlythere · 26/05/2007 10:01

i have seen one in the flesh and although it does grow on you- i've not added any onto my order! And as for the price- well you'll find out when it is officially released into sales circulation (June/July before retailers start recieving them i think!) but i wouldn't pay too much for it!!

Chandra · 26/05/2007 10:19

It seems to me like the sort of pushchair that would like being a very minimalism oriented designer. But definitively doesn't go well with the style of that model...

SoupDragon · 26/05/2007 11:47

Tegan when you say your DH loves it, do you mean the pushchair or the website with the skinny blonde model on it?

SoupDragon · 26/05/2007 11:48

Maybe if you buy one you miraculously gain several inches in height and lose several dress sizes...?

Chandra · 26/05/2007 12:03

Well it depends, if you have to fast to cover its price, maybe...

I'm submitting it to www.webpagesthatsuck.com/ Do these people really think we have hours to navigate through lots of crappy Flash? I'm not even sure what the pram looks like because I got bored...
