I currently have a Hauck Infinity Espirit. Only had it a few months and while it is a lovely pushchair its going to become a bit unpractical.

Baby no.3 is due in November and ds will 15 months then.
So what I'm thinking is buying a new smaller stroller to use from now till new baby arrives, then stick it in a cupboard, use a tandem and then when ds can walk happily by the pushchair, get back out the stroller again.

My friend has just been round and she has the Chicco London Winter stroller and I quite like that. It ticks all the boxes, light, simple, reclines, has a shopping basket and I really like the handles. Plus I've seen a good seller on ebay that sells them for £29.99!

But before I just leap in, I just want to make sure theres nothing else that I'm missing.
Dont want to spend a fortune either cos I'm not so sure how much we'll get back for the Hauck.

TIA.

ohh NBG how much are you thinking of selling espirit for?

WE had a bruin alpine stroller when DD1 needed one and it was great.

Would keep your Hauck just because if ds is anything like DD1 in a couple of months he will do local short walks or walking in the park etc.

Hiya Nemo

Well I told dh of my grand plan last night and he wasnt impressed. He wants to keep the Hauck

Another mnetter who I'm friends with, offered me £60 but dh wants more for it because its only just 6 months old and we paid £130.

I just want a simple lighter stroller. I think its more practical, but hey ho.

We got our Maclaren from a boot sale, was £30 with the rain cover. The wheels could do with a change but it is still really good. Might be worth having a look.
