what sort of pram do you have?

yep just saw that on the website they look great.
Has anyone tried the carrycot with the MB?

Rach179 - you are probably best to call MB themselves and ask if it is suitable for long walks/light jogs.

I think that study is a whole lot of codswallop. You can still interact with your child just as much as a front facing pram.

we have a p&t and I it! It was good when we just had Amy but is fantastic now we have Sophie as well.

Have never had issues going into shops/mall with it and it is great for when we all walk the dog on the weekend - we are usually out for an hour or more and the girls don't mind.

The brake was very stiff to start with but got easier to use with time.

eta: we have the e3 in red - would like the new sport if I won lotto!!

We have a valco runabout and four years ago when we got it it was the best.   It folds down to a good size, swivel or lock the front wheel, take the back wheels off for more room. The only problem I had with it was that it was too wide to fit down the isle of the bus. Now i kick it and curse it all the way down the road...the swivel keeps going sideways and catching, the lock sits so it is not straight so I have to keep pressure on one side to keep going straight....and I still cannot get on the bus.

I have the bugaboo cameleon and love that i can clip the carseat on and off it. It also comes with a carry cot part.

I have also had a phil and teds sports and dash and mountain buggy terrian and urban elite. I liked the phil and ted better as it was lighter and folds smaller. If we have another baby we will get the phil and teds vibe with toddlers seat :)

HAve your tried it with the toddler seat so much worse with that I got mine about 4 year's ago thinking it was the best ever and now I hate it with a passion.

We've been fans of P&T since we bought one for our eldest son 11 years ago! Last year we got a newer model (2nd hand on TM) with with the toddler seat. It is great as it packs down so small -great as we do alot of travelling. However I think the older model is easier to push.

We used/use a front carrier for Emma - to begin with it was back facing and she found it safe and snug. She still loves it but faces forward nowdays. Also nowdays, Gina likes to walk a lot and helps push the pram - in fact she will quite often object if we try to put her in the pram. We have managed using a variety of things including DH holding Gina when she's tired. To be honest we have not found it to be a problem and I'm glad I didn't get a double as I never liked any of them.

ETA: my advice would be to wait and see how you manage before buying a double - the bugaboo is really such a nice pram. And there's been research to prove it's good for babies to face their parents when out

argh the dreaded pram.

We have a milano 3 wheel stroller from baby city, we got it coz the capsule clicked in, never do that again. its a pain in the shops the only thing it is good for is walking etc.

so we got a little 4 wheel umbrella stroller a couple of weeks back from famers doesnt completely lie flat but he's old enough not to need it that much.

Will be getting a P&T's sport double when next baby arrives am saving pennies now.

We had a Double MB urban when Ryan and Katelyn were babies then went to the childcare rover twin stroller. The MB was huge with it being a twin buggy thats why i got rid of it i loved the rover stroller thou.
For this bubba i have been looking on trademe and found a stroller called the BAM i think its a phil and teds but not sure can't seem to find any more info onit on google. We need something that we can use from newborn and that folds down small cause the boot in our Estima isn't very big.
