If you are tall i.e over 5ft 8 which pushchair do you have ?

[Beauregard]

Cos i am very tall and need a cheap second hand umbrella fold pushchair but need to know which one has long handles.

I have a 3 wheeler with a fixed front wheel (nightmare to push and huge),i need a new pushchair as i shall be buying a small car so boot space will be limited.

Techno XT (Maclaren) very good - extendable handles, pretty much indestructible.

I'm just under 6 foot and have a maclaren quest. It's fine height wise.

yep dh has found thte techno xt fine an he is 6'3"

Thanks for the quick responses.

I am 6ft 2 so long handles a necessity.

How easy do you think it would be to get one 2nd hand ?

m + p pilko for me

they come up on ebay regularly

Thanks Cargirl

Am 5.11 and find Pliko and Zapp great.

Techno is definitely your most likely one to get second hand, but if you can get a BabyDan ToGo, their handles acually go higher than the techno so you can be tall and wear high heels if you want

I am 6ft 1 and found the Techno FAB!!

Have to vote against the pliko. He handles are not too bad, but there is hardly any striding distance between the handles and the rear wheels. So I kept stepping on the rear wheels and tripping up.

Go for the Techno. Tall handles, lightweight, small folding, and reclines nearly flat for thos toddler naps!

I'm 5'11 and will add a vote for the Techno. Brilliant. Also had a MB Urban for off-road, which has a v.g. extendable handlebar.

Dontdreambeit- I used to have a BabyDan to go and it did ...go ...knackered in about 8 months.

I'm 5 11 dh is 6 4 and we have an icandy apple with adjustable handle. has been v good so far

bruin one with bubbles on it..handles are a lot higher than the more expensive red bruin.

im 6'1 and the most comfortable buggy i have ever know is the Maclaren techno.

the handles are adjustable so they can be raised really high.

teh first buggy i haven't had to lean over to push lol

lol Chonky

I have started a Wanted thread for the Maclaren.

Thanks ladies.

pelvicfloornomore. Ive used mine daily for almost two years now, but I did knacker the folding mechanism the first time I used it, so i stays up permanently

are lots of these on ebay for low prices, many of them new, esp if you dont mind which colour/s it is...

Thanks Pannacotta
