Would any buggy enthuasiats tell me the handle height and their opinion of these pushchairs

I will have a small car, a newborn baby, a 3.5 year old who will want to sit in the pushchair sometimes, I walk alot and often get the bus in london - which one is best for me.

Plus i am quite tall and would like a high handle and i don't want to spend to much

bump would also like reviews on a britax voyager.

Not sure if this will help but my friend has the Britax Vigour and says its fab. The handle can go very high - She is 5ft 10 and its a dream to push. I wish I had bought one now. Its fairly light weight too.

The Britax voyager is a nice pushchair and is great as can be forward facing for a bit aslong as your DC doesn't mind the carrycot my friend's DD hated it so she bought the car seat.

Good if you do alot of walking but awful for transport as is huge when folded and very heavy.

The handle goes up quite high so should be okay and re older DC going in it it'd probably be fine as is quite a bg seat.

Micralite the first one anyway no experience of Toro but the first one is useless for tall people and seat unit is annoying as doesn't sit u straight at all very low slung and unsuppoerted would not reccommend IMO anyway.

luna I dont have a clue about but I know the Luna Mix s supposed to be good as they improved it duie to some flaws with riginal Luna.

How about an Instep Nipper 360 theya re quite good, great for walking and very lightweight but you can't get them to face you though. You can get them new for about £200 but on here they go for around £100.

You might be better getting one for your car and public transoprt and one for walking that would maybe be your best optiona s none are really good for both IMO

i had a micralite toro (my ds outgrew it length wise and he isn't even 2 yet)- it was a bit too low for me really - even though the handles are adjustable - also if you have a small boot and need to make the handles shorter to fit in you have to adjust the handles with an allen key which might be a bit of a hassle!

baby jogger city mini? so easy to fold for public transport but big enough wheels for walking, although not all terrain, folds very small and very cheap. The bigger baby jogger would be better for off roading, also folds easily but bulkier, and now takes a toddler seat attachment (according to my friend in the States)
