Mothercare Hoxton or Cosatto duet lite - are they the same? Are they any good?

Having tried our 2 yr old in a Maclaren twin techno we've decided it's too narrow.
The lady in Mothercare suggested the Hoxton as the toddlers seat is quite roomy and it folds up small which is important for our car and the tiny shed at our nursery!
Has anybody got any feedback on the Hoxton. I've read a few stories about the tyres going flat which is a little worrying. It also looks very similar to the Cosatto duet lite, are they the same buggy just branded differently? i've read some reviews about the cosatto that say the base of the baby seat had a ridge in the middle and caused the baby to roll to the sides, has anybody experienced this, is the Hoxton the same?
Thanks.

the tyres were changed to solid tyres on the hoxton to solve that problem.
i've heard a lot of reviews saying that the hoxton is VERY heavy(esp with a 2yo in front) and hard to steer and go up/down kerbs as you have the toddler at the front,
it would probably be ok as a keep in the car buggy, but not to use frequently or for doing lots of walking.
