Hello!

I'm looking at replacing my gorgeous, fabulous love-it-to-pieces silver cross sleepover classic because my son is just too slight to sit up in it properly. He's too tall now for the carrycot but he is not comfortable when it's used inthe other position.

I've been looking at the Quinny Buzz and the Cosatto Mobi, both have a more moulded seating system, and comply with my two rules for a new pram. They have to be rear/forward changeable, and they have to have a height adjustable bar style handle due to my height and arthritis issues.

So over to the collective wisdom and knowledge of the experts. Any thoughts and suggestions for similar types of pram? I've not go a big budget, and I know I'll probably have to sell my silver cross to help pay for this idea. I need to do something though, as my son isn't a happy little boy right now

Any thoughts truly appreciated

i love my nurse hello pushchair, its so easy to push even one handed and it has great suspension,they are quite well priced on ebay and you get a change bag raincover shopping basket and cosytoes with it.

I have not owned either the Buzz or the Mobi but I do know that the style of handle they both have is very uncomfortable if you have achey wrists like me. The nicest one to push in this instance is the Hauck Infinity, its got a really ergonomic handlebar and my wrists never ache pushing it. It faces either way, folds up with seat attached (forwards)and has a bucket moulded seat unit.
They do go quite cheaply second hand.

I have played with the infinity, and dislike it for some absurd reason. The bowed handle does nothing for me, I need a practically straight bar Thanks for the thought thoguh
