from London on 4/4/2008
We bought it for our daughter who was 1 year old at the time.
Things that we love:
Breaks
Weight
Price
Rain cover
Thing we do not like so much: Not very stable for older children. I don't think you can have a 3 years old in it. Is too small and the structure too fragile.
from Gateshead, Tyne & Wear on 3/26/2008
Very good price!!
Comes with raincover
from East Midlands on 2/2/2008
Great lightweight buggy. Only down-side is that the clip is not strong enough to keep the buggy together when folded down. This makes it difficult to carry.
from Brighton on 1/24/2008
This product is great for whizzing around town, especially in shops that have tiny isles. Its nice and small to fit in to a small boot of a car, and is lightweight. I love how easy it is to set up, you pull it open and push your foot on the clip near the wheels and that's it. It's also really quick & simple to fold away.
It's great to use on pavement and in shops, however it's not so great to go off roading, i.e. through a farm / grassy park etc.
When pulling this stroller towards you (back wards) the wheels kind of go a bit wobbly, and it's hard to steer. An example of wheeling it backwards would be in/out of a lift. Another this is that the clip that holds the stroller together for storage is only on one side. This means that the pressure of keeping the buggy closed is on one side. I think that a clip on each side of the buggy would have been better. The rain cover is perfect it doesn't seem to bother my child at all. It have a good reclining position to enable the child to lay back comfortably. Overall I would recommend this product, giving it an 8/10.
from Shrewsbury on 1/23/2008
Bought this as a second buggy for holiday abroad [$] Easy to fly with and use on escalators. Different seat positions so child can recline for a better nap. Handy basket underneath though not huge. Can carry changing bag on handles, if not too heavy, wrapped round. We tend to use it with fixed wheels in a straight line, found it easier to 'drive'. However, at 6'0+, my husband and I both find that adjustable handles would have been better. Overall, excellent second pushchair at a great price.
from Glasgow on 1/23/2008
Great value,lightweight, ideal for small car boots.
from Bedfordshire on 1/21/2008
Excellent, value for money. We used it to take on holiday aborad and it withstood the transit at both airports so it must bedurable. Lightweight and very esy to use!
from Suffolk on 1/21/2008
We bought this stroller to take abroad due to it being lightweight and compact. The rain cover and hood were an added bonus making it excellent value - and most importantly my little girl found it comfortable. Perfect for every day use and durable enough for baggage handlers!
from Surrey on 1/21/2008
We brought this buggy to take on holiday with us and knowing how heavy handed some airline staff can be, we wanted something that would withstand our journey. A fantstic buggy very light weight and easy to put together. Being quite tall I found that I wasn't slumped over the handelbars which was nice. It was easy to push and seemed to give my little one a smooth ride. However I have to say there were a couple of flaws. Firstly the straps didn't adjust enough for my liking. I found that even on the tighest setting the straps weren't flush to the body. My son was 1 at the time but I don't think i'd trust it with anyone younger. Secondly there is no catch to keep it together once collapsed. This function would definatley help when storing and traveling. Apart from that though I'm very happy with the buggy and would recommend it.
from Birmingham on 1/20/2008
this pushchair was really good value for money. We bought it for holiday but use it at home too. It allows nearly full reclining so great when baby wants to sleep. window in hood allows you to see baby also and raincover is really easy to use. I would definately recommend this pushchair.
from consett on 1/20/2008
We find the buggy great as a second system as our travel system is bulky and heavy. We bought it originally to go abroad and use it regularly now we are home. Only issue we have is that the hood needs to be taken off everytime you fold the buggy which makes it difficult if your baby wants to get going!

The Wheels I have found have a mind of there own sometimes....they won't go where you want them to go, they seem to have there own agenda! Otherwise this is a really great little stroller.
from edgware london on 1/18/2008
i use it now and then, its ease to use
from Devon on 1/17/2008
Use this pushchair every day. My house is up a steep path and steps and being lightweight and compact it's just ideal. My baby seems to find it comfortable and sleeps well in it when out and about. It's easy to pack up and put in the car or the porch and very easy to manoeuvre around town. Definitely a fantastic item at a great price. Can't think of any negatives!
from Lancashire on 1/17/2008
Only used occasionally when grandson visits but no problems with it, does the job perfectly
from Yorkshire on 1/17/2008
I sold it to a friend. I am quite tall and found not very comfortable. Also when I walked I kept kicking the back of the pushchair.
from Oxford on 1/17/2008
I use the buggy daily and being a male i sometimes find you need a degree in opening and folding them down.Being 6ft tall i also find the handles a good height so i don't get home with back ache after being bent over all day This must have been designed by a man as its so simple to fold and unfold without having to be a contortionist or having five arms and 3 legs. Study design with great ease of use i would recommend this buggy to anyone who is upgrading or the first time buyer. The reclining feature is what sold it for me as my son now can lay near enough flat when he's taken off to the land of nod. Many thanks
from Worthing, West Sussex on 1/17/2008
Great lightweight buggy that both my 9 month and tired 2 and half year old use. Easy folding. Great feature is handle on side that eldest holds on to while walking and feels very grown up - other mums have commented on how good it is.
from beds on 1/16/2008
Got this to take abroad for holiday. Airport security was not a problem as this folds up easily like an umbrella to go through scanner. Ample storage space underneath.
Light weight but sturdy, great manoeverability up and down non drop kerbs, ramps and easy to pick up to get up and down steps.
Not brilliant on the sand but manages most surfaces with ease.
perfect for holidays and the back of the car as it doesnt take up a lot of space.
from merriott, somerset on 1/16/2008
this stroller is an ideal product, not ony does it look smart but the ability to recline makes it a must have.
from dundee, tayide, scotland on 1/16/2008
i use this buggy every day taking my young daughter to and from school. i found it easy to set up, super light (with carrying handle)and easy to fold including adjusting seat etc.
this is my fifth child and i would definetely recommend this buggy to anyone who is looking for a great quality buggy.
from Brighton on 1/16/2008
Great value for money. Looks good, folds up and down very easily (great if you use public transport a lot), lightweight and easy to steer. Lies quite flat so suitable from 3 months. Only little niggle is the raincover, it is all in one piece so you practically have to take the whole thing off to get your child in or out.
from herts on 1/16/2008
Good for nipping in and out of shops. Not very easy to push and quite bumpy so I wouldn't use it all the time
from Cheltenham, Glos. on 1/16/2008
I would highly recommend this stroller as it is cheap yet reliable, very easy to set up and lightweight. It also comes with a raincover that you would normally have to pay for separately. It's excellent for having in the boot of the car for whenever you need it. I've had it for 8 months and no complaints yet!
from Cheltenham, Glos on 1/16/2008
This is a really good buggy especially good value. I have seen any others for a lot more which don't even come close in terms of features. It is easy to put together, light, easy to push, easy to fold up. THe only down side is the rain cover which doesn't quite fit far down enough at the front, and it is either totally on or off, unlike others which are more fitted. THe shopping basket is quite small but you can get bags over the handles without it toppling over. I haven't really bohered with the recline positions although there are several, and these are not the easiest to adjust (and you can't get to the basket if the buggy is reclinned right back). But it is a great buggy and i use it every day, it has been on planes and my son is very happy in it.
from East Sussex on 1/15/2008
Looks great, comfortable but often difficult to push as wheels get stuck in opposite directions and you have to lift the front of buggy to correct it. A real pain when crossing the road of try to push one handed. Also back wheels splay when pulling backwards
from Doncaster on 1/15/2008
I bought this pushchair to take on our holidays for our 9mth old. It was definatley worth the money and more! I'm very pleased I bought it and would recommend it to anyone.
from Hove, East Sussex on 1/15/2008
This buggy is leightweight and ideal for use as a second buggy. I keep this one in the boot of my car for the odd trip to the shops and for use with the grandparents and holidays. Has a multi-recline which is good for when my daughter has a nap and comes with a raincover which was an added bonus!
from Abingdon on 1/15/2008
does what it says on the tin, very economical
from Kent on 1/15/2008
This buggy is a fantastic buy, it is used daily and is very durable, has a great shopping space, the four position recline is great for little ones, my 14 month old is very comfortable in it. It's lovely, lively design makes it look more expensive than it is. Cannot complain.
from Newcastle upon tyne on 1/15/2008
Great everyday buggy for my 8 month son, easy to fold, put away, easy to assemble.
Great value.
from Cambridge on 1/15/2008
This buggy is lightweight and easy to push. The last one i had was hard work, this is a delight and my son Ryan who is now 2 loves it! And to top everything it was so cheap!!
from cleveland on 1/15/2008
this buggy was a bargain. its easy to use, smart, lightweight has a carry handle. Quality make ideal for around town, packs away easily.
from London on 1/15/2008
Amazing price and has been perfect for going on holiday as can adjust the angle of the seat. Takes up very little space in the car and we've used it as a back up to our Buggaboo.
from EAST LOTHIAN on 1/15/2008
THIS IS A SUPERB LIGHTWEIGHT STROLLER WHICH IS EASY TO USE. IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED AND IS SO REASONABLY PRICED. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT BUY AND CAN GIVE OTHER MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE STROLLERS A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY
from Taunton on 1/15/2008
This buggy is cheap and cheerful, it has good quality fabric and I use it on a daily basis and has stood up to all sorts of batterings. It folds easily and is very light weight. It has a good option for the child to lie back but you can't use the shopping basket when they are laid flat.
You can't get more for your money as this has everything you need for the lightweight buggy
from loughborough, leicestershire on 1/15/2008
great priced pushchair/pram, specially for new born to two years
from Essex on 1/15/2008
Good raincover, very useful stroller, easy to set up and store.
from bristol on 1/14/2008
i bought this pushchair just to take on holiday.we were flying to spain&wanted something easy&lightweight for our son.it made travelling so much easier&stressfree,on an evening it reclined so he feel asleep in it&was comfortable.since returning from our holiday we have still kept using it,is well worth every penny.
from ramsgate, kent on 1/14/2008
easy to use, would recommend
from Bournemouth on 1/14/2008
I bought this pushchair for when we have too much gear to fit my normal one in the boot of the car. Eg. holidays etc. My son finds it quite comfy and seems happy in it. The only thing I would say is it quite hard to steer sometimes and the wheels do not have great movabilty. But is good as a spare.
from Ascot on 1/14/2008
I got this buggy for approx [$] and it is well worth this price. It has all the standard things that you would require. Have been using it for about 4 months and it is holding up well.
from Wakefield on 1/14/2008
We bought this as a light weight stroller to take on holiday, but now use it more than our expensive travel system.
Its light, easy to use and was excellent value.
There are two very tiny cons, the first is that the clip used to keep the buggy compact when it is folded was not attached to the buggy, and was very quickly lost. Secondly, the shopping basket under the stroller, whilst very useful, is too low at the sides, and so small items can fall out.
As I said, very tiny cons. I'm very happy with this product and highly recommend it.
from cornwall on 1/14/2008
Broke within a week
from horley on 1/14/2008
a fantastic second buggy
from Leeds on 1/14/2008
This is a great stoller to use for holidays for an older child who uses it infrequently. It is light and constructed much better than a regular lightweight stroller.
from Bristol on 1/14/2008
We originally bought a bulky pram which was a lot of hassle when out and about.
We needed a lightweight stroller for travelling primarily so we bought this as it was great value for money. Nowadays, we use it all the time and the original pram doesn't get a look in. The shopping basket is big enough for a quick pop to the shops but if the seat is reclined, you cannot access the basket. It folds away very easily and is very simple to use (fold/unfold). It is also very compact.
The only negative we have found is if you reverse, the wheels seem to go inwards but that is only when reversing and doesn't happen any other time.
I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone.
from bristol on 1/14/2008
I use this push chair all the time. Its light weight which is great as I have a bad back and folds small so when we go on holiday to France it leaves more room for luggage and wine. We orginally brought the buggy just for holiday use but now its used all the time and has replaced my 3 wheeler buggy
from Swindon, Wilts on 1/14/2008
Use it as a second smaller pushcair, as main chair takes up the majority of car boot. Also taken it abroad, no problems.
from horsham west sussex on 1/14/2008
I brought this to leave at my mums. I have said from day one i prefer this to my travel system that cost [$] pounds i would recomend this product to anyone.
from wales on 1/14/2008
Great for daily use. Light, portable and easy to use.
from Portslade on 1/14/2008
I bought this product purely based on it's price which was dramatically lower than the RRP. It looks good, serves well as a lightweight and compact alternative to a full buggy and is easy enough to keep clean. There are a couple of drawbacks; the shoulder straps are rather too long (I would certainly question it's suitability for a 3 month old child) and the hood is a bit of a fiddle to set up initially. This, I think, is an issue with the instructions which are not quite as clear as they could be.
I would consider this a good buy overall.
from North wales on 1/14/2008
Good all round buggy at a great price
from Greenhithe, Kent on 1/14/2008
I have a 2 year old and a four month old and purchased two of these pushchairs for our holiday abroad. I needed pushchairs that were durable, easy to collapse and expand (due to travelling by plane and getting in and out of taxis). This puschairs were superb, being able to use for my toddler when he was fed up with walking and light enough to wheel around when he wanted to walk. Also versatile enough for my baby who was asleep for most of the time he was in it. Large canopy hood was ideal for giving good shade for both kids and for keeping cool. Now I am home I keep one in the boot of my car at all times as they lay fairly flat and are not bulky, leaving plenty of room for everything else. Only one issue was with the catch which holds the puschair together when collapsed didn't always hold but overall excellent value for money.
from London on 1/14/2008
Had a travel system (Loola) which worked just well from birth, but bulky and a bit heavy and took a lot of space. Bought this when baby was 9 months for easier travel and have not stopped using it since, now nearly 9 months later. Simple and great value, one advantage was that it was a bit higher than most others which was a plus for my tall husband.
from Bedfordshire on 1/14/2008
This particular buggy came complete with waterproofs and was so reasonable it meant I could afford to buy a buggy just for my house. [...]I have used Kiddicare for the past 8 years since my first grandson was born.
from Gorleston, Norfolk on 1/14/2008
Ideal stroller to use for an older baby / toddler, wouldn't recommend for under 10 months (approx) as not much support. Excellent to throw in back of car for use in town etc. Personally not nice for me to push for too long as wheels are close together at rear and if you "stride" you tend to stand on wheels, but for nipping about it's great!
from London on 1/14/2008
I origanally bought this as a spare buggie to leave in the car but it is so handy and easy to fold that it has become the full time buggie and has lasted well as it carries a heavy two year old just about everywhere.
from Aberdeen on 1/13/2008
Bought as a 2nd easy travel buggy for holiday - wouldn't have minded if it got damaged on plane, beach etc. Was 'hard used' that holiday & did well. Have the big 3-wheeler as our original pushchair & this was great when baby was little - still use for rougher terrain walks etc but for day to day, in & out of car & shops/centres where there are smooth surfaces, I'd actually rather take the Hauck - it's lighter, quicker & easier to use - perfect for the toddler stage we're now at.
from WORCESTERSHIRE on 1/13/2008
THIS IS A GREAT BUY....
I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING EASY TO FOLD, LIGHT WEIGHT, THAT I COULD GET MY INFANT AND SHOPPING ONTO A BUS ON MY OWN.
i MANAGED VERY WELL FOLDING AND CARRYING EVERYTHING ON THE BUS, NO PROBLEM, ITS A LIFE SAVER FROM MY TRAVEL SYSTEM!!
GREAT WOULD CERTAINLY BUY AGAIN!!
THANK YOU
from Chilterns. Bucks on 1/13/2008
This buggy has been to Spain, round the woodland trails and to the shops. It is lightweight but seems to ride the bumps quite well. It reclines and has a good hood for shade and shelter. My baby will sleep in it fine and I think the seat is a little more solid than some of the more expensive competition so that my daughter doesn't slump. She likes to be upright and seeing what;s going on.
The fabric isn't too easy to wipe down but we manage. Kept at Grandparents now as it folds up small. Good raincover. Good value!
from newcastle upon tyne on 1/13/2008
every day, easy to use buggy
from York on 1/13/2008
Originally bought for out first family holiday abroad, night and lighweight, excellent recliner, now a pushchair at Grandmas so no more lugging a bulky pram. Excellent value for money
