Hello and welcome!

Mrs.M...are you back with us now? was missing you before my hols! im glad to be back, i love coming home im weird like that! lol

loving the spotty liner and bar cover looks so snug!

I was thinking of getting a verve mrs.m, but heard they have lots of probs? but probably only similar to the niggles people have with zapp??

How old is your ds nappy? if he's over 2yrs would recommend the xlr as the seat so much wider. the obaby is heavier than a comparable maclaren which i'd say is the quest but still nice, i like the handles on the vintage too. can you see a vintage at all to compare? even tho we only have a small mothercare they have both the xlr and obaby vintage in stock so can compare side by side.

if its for a main pushchair i would go for xlr, but if ds is growing out of pushchairs maybe you won't get your money's worth iykwim?? sorry im not helping am i! you can get 08xlrs for about £180ish maybe cheaper? my obaby was £60.

nappyaddict · 19/02/2009 09:19

Have tried him in an obaby and he fits ok but haven't tried him in an XLR. When you say obaby is heavier than quest do you mean to push or to carry?

MrsMagooo · 19/02/2009 09:19

I'm here every now & again, just pop in from time to time

Verve's ok, spacious, lovely big hood, big folded though. Got my 2nd hand & wasn't as described so that's why I doubt I'll keep it.

Maclaren · 19/02/2009 09:24

No fair MrsM I ordered my footmuff before you and I havent got it yet....... Maybe its because your a frequent customer!

I'm off to drop the Breeze to Cargirl later really having second thoughts though!

MrsMagooo · 19/02/2009 09:28

I had in the pipeline for a while Maclaren as Lucy knew I was getting the Skate so I'd preordered for when I got my Skate

The rest of my Skate stuff will come a bit later though

Maclaren · 19/02/2009 09:37

Thats cool MrsM was only joking Yep I am selling the Switch I cant be doing with the four wheels and the two handle bars lol!

claret1980 · 19/02/2009 09:42

Wow Maclaren you are being ruthless! Have you any left now?

I get my buzz picked up next week now.

MrsMagooo · 19/02/2009 09:47

LOL, I can relate to that though, I really don't get on with 2 handles!!

Maclaren · 19/02/2009 09:57

I'm selling both the Breeze and the M&P the casotto crap is going back - I tried to use it yesterday and one of the wheels doesnt touch the ground! I am getting a first ed Luna in Cress from a lady on the for sale board for free! so I am going to use that until a MB comes up or I get tempted away by something else lol!

MrsMagooo · 19/02/2009 09:58

I love the cress colourway!

nappyaddict · 19/02/2009 10:30

Maclaren which cosatto have you got?

nappyaddict · 19/02/2009 10:31

Oh and how much you selling switch for?

Maclaren · 19/02/2009 10:57

Nappy the Hula and its horrid! I tired it around the house and thought it was ok but the handles are too low for me then took it up the shops yesterday and oh my god one of the wheels sticks up into the air

Just looking for what I paid for the switch think Disenchanted3 wants it

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 19/02/2009 12:01

mrsM hiya chick Yes it fell through last night but secretly glad as I really only wanted the black one tbh.

I've found somewhere do them for £149 but no raincover and 3 left in stock, don't know if you wanted BN or 2ndhand? www.boogaloobaby.co.uk

I can't get one till tmrw though as no funds till then argh!

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 19/02/2009 12:02

Verves - met a mate today who has one and they look compact yet the seat looks mahoosive! Lovely looking buggy anyway, she loves it

claret1980 · 19/02/2009 12:49

nicolamumof3 · 19/02/2009 14:40

a lady on holiday had that hula maclaren, i think its expensive for what it is. would much rather have a maclaren. Glad you can send it back tho.

nicolamumof3 · 19/02/2009 14:50

btw nappy, meant the obaby is heavier to push then carry. but it is still v.nice. i fancy getting mine out of shed and using it with my new buggysnuggle i think whilst i wash maclaren and zapp covers later!

mumofdjandbabies · 19/02/2009 15:11

nicolamumof3 · 19/02/2009 15:26

i haven't dunoon, i don't like gracos im afraid.

just got pushchair liner that i ordered for zapp but don't like it, its not very thick and the fabric not so nice, so im a bit disappointed. ordered it a while back before i had tried chunkle munkle from another lady. shame, but there you go another one down to experience!

off to sainsburys in a bit to do the post holiday shop. joy!
