Hi,

I am enjoying my bugaboo immensely and am a self confessed sling addict, but I could also do with a stroller. I've read a couple of previous conversations re the rear facing issue, but all of the suggested pushchairs were more like the bugaboo and not easy folding or lightweight.
Any help or advice appreicated.
Thanks.

had my loola for approx 1 year rearward facing then ds2 started looking uncomfortable as was quite wide have gone back to using it last 2 months, ds2 nearly 2 loves it rearward facing sings nursery rhymes to me walking down the road with actions, slightly harder to put up rearward facing as seat over bar but easy when you know how also love two button release for seat unit if need to get on bus etc and fold if ds asleep, folds with two buttons on handles and one kick up bar with or without seat unit attached folds small walk approx 30 miles a week with it and never had problem wheels still working well and was second hand when I bought it

Hmmm - I just looked at more websites about the bee and am worried it will be too small as ds is really v long (like dh!). Will have to have a trip to mothercare to check it out!
Thanks for all the replies.

My nearly 3 year old sits in my bee sometimes, although he does look to big now he still fits.
He fitted fine in it (without looking silly) up until about 2.4 months if that helps.

DS2 is nearly 6 months old and still looks diddy in it

We have the pliko switch, best pushchair EVER. Seat is much bigger and more comfortable than the Bee, esp for a 2 year old. DD has, in fact, refused to give it up for her baby sister and now I have to get a double
