Will I need it?

Am I mad

Have one older DD 4 and half, out of buggy. One dd who is 2 yrs and 1 mth and a baby due at end of October. I really wanted one last time but didn't get. This is 3rd and final baby, will it be a waste.

Our walk to school will be short only 10 mins I reckon the 2 yr old could walk.

Spose she could conceivable still use the buggy until she is about 3. Will i be making her lazy?

Oh dear it was £350, feel a bit wasteful.

I do already have a dodgy old maclaren double buggy, rarely used, and a buggy board, and a Jane, and a Mamas and Papas, have many buggies actually.

Crossed post - you have already answered!

hey pgNo3

yes the maxicosi can fit the sport, but not sure about the vibe.

but, afaik you can't use the doubles seat when the car seat is attached as I think the main seat needs to be flat for it to attach(but don't quote me on that)

LackaDAISYcal · 23/07/2008 11:51

ooh, and the vibe has a bit more headroom for a toddler when the doubles seat is being used in conjunction with newborn baby mode. i think the hood height is adjustable.

not that I've been researching this or anything

Washersaurus · 23/07/2008 13:05

The sport doubles seat does recline y'know!

I don't think the vibe is as nice to be honest. So expensive it is vulgar in fact

I haven't seen the Dash....

Washersaurus · 23/07/2008 13:08

You can't use the carseat when the doubles seat is on (but I think I read somewhere of someone who did, but I can't see how)

I hope the build quality on the vibe is improved from the sport to justify the difference in price!

i have no idea how to link a website but if youi go onto google and type in phil and teds it comes up with the official website.
the p&t seems the best option for me for the following reasons:

narrow doorway
walk alot
two kiddies under 2 when baby is born
needs to be lightweight for getting on bus
easily folded for car and storage
easily manoeverable as also walk dog with it.

cant think of a better double!

but no idea which bloody style! both the dash and vibe look nice.

check out hte website, i will be watching this thread for comments on dash and vibe.

Thanks LacksaDAISY!

Need to sell my Bugaboo first Gutted as love it but I might as well get more for it by selling it now then leaving it 5 months. I will just buy Phil and Teds and use it as a single, that is the beauty of it.
