We've just bought one and it is brilliant, having tried the M&P Pliko, the M&P Aria and a mothercare stroller.

We got it from Kiddicare for £99, it is the 2002 version so the seat doesn't recline as far as the 2003 but that only matters if you plan to use it for a newbie (DD is 11mo). The colours are much more subtle on the 2002 model too IMO.

Just wanted to share that, feel much better now !

Do you still like it? I am just planning to buy stroller as easier to take on hol for just over 4 mos old and tempted by Maclaren XT.

It's fab Davros. The 2003 model has a flatter recline position too so would be even better for your 4 month old.

I've just looked at that cheapo baby supplies website that someone here suggested and was all ready to order BUT its the 2002 model. Do you think I should care enough to spend £50 more? Sorry to plague you but need it quite soon.

can someone post the cheap baby supplies website again, I am going to need to buy a double or tandem pushchair in the not to distant future. ta

Davros, I shouldn't bother, we used a 2002 model from 6 weeks for dd2 (just for short hops) and she loved it. We did pad her in with a couple of rolled up baby blankets. By 4 months she was wanting to sit up to check out the world anyway.
Highly recommended, especially if you have a toddler too as you can easily push it one-handed.

Thanks everyone, ordering now!

This site sells the 2003 model for £129.99. They also do the footmuff for £25.

I've had it since birth for ds2 (10 weeks), and it is also great with a buggy board.
