The Pushchair Track: Coming Soon – UPPABaby G-LUXE

Yes that is a pushchair that you see standing up on its own. UPPABaby, the US brand behind the Vista travel system that I featured a few weeks back is making some major rustles on the pushchair block with its latest design, the G-Luxe . Aside from being cool enough to stand on its own [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Yellow Submarine Buggy

There’s no prizes for guessing that the latest incarnation of the Quest pushchair from Maclaren is inspired by The Beatles ‘Yellow Submarine’ classic. Even with colder days ahead, the pushchair is a burst of signature sunshine yellow and has an embroidered liner which is also reversible to a very Austin Powers-esque psychedelic print. The hood [...]

Spot Red Buggy by Maclaren and Cath Kidston

I was over at the Cath Kidston site checking something out for our latest nursery tour when this buggy caught my eye. Is there a product which hasn’t received the Cath Kidston treatment I wonder? This time it is the Maclaren Quest which has seen designers such as Lulu Guinness and Kate Spade rework the [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren’s Juicy Couture Pushchair

If you follow your celebrity gossip, you may recognise this Juicy Couture pushchair for Maclaren from recent pictures of Salma Hayek, her husband, and 19 month old daughter Valentina Paloma out and about in Saint Tropez. At £300, this is se-ri-ous high end Maclaren and like other pushchairs from their Objects of Design collection (we’ve [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Quest Mod in Big Apple Review

If you’re someone who has owned a heavier travel system (we have the Quinny Buzz), then you may be like the legions of parents who invested in a second lightweight pushchair stroller. We owned (we just gifted it on) a Mamas and Papas Nipi, and we have just spent the past six weeks road testing [...]

The Pushchair Track: Petite Star Zia4 Travel System Review

Kat writes…When looking for a pram/pushchair which will take you from birth to toddlerhood and beyond, there are countless travel system options on the market.  Often they are a compromise between the two functions and don’t give you the best but the average of both worlds.  When you factor in the cost at around £250 – [...]

The Pushchair Track: New! Maclaren Quest Mod in Big Apple

Natalie writes…The Pushchair Track is back after a bit of a break to accomodate the festive season and the toy fest, and what a great way to kick off, with a new arrival from lightweight pushchair giant, Maclaren. Featuring an Andy Warhol inspired Big Apple motif, the 2009 Maclaren Quest Mod is like a breath [...]

Buyers Guide: What to consider when buying a stylish pushchair

Natalie writes…Buying a pushchair can be an agonising decision, especially when you’re trying to balance your style sensibilities with function, so here is my guide to helping you make that decision. Aside from the style aesthetics, you need to consider suitability from birth (padding and lie flat options), travel system capability, handle style and height, [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Lulu Guinness This Is The Life Pushchair

Natalie writes… I’m a big fan of Maclaren’s Objects of Design collection because when you have something as immensely popular as a Maclaren pushchair, you need a few choicy designer collaborations for the style conscious parents that want to distinguish themselves. Taking the best selling Maclaren Quest, which weighs in at 5.2kg without the hood, [...]

The Pushchair Track: Mamas and Papas Nipi

As lightweight pushchairs go, the Mamas and Papas Nipi is right up there as one of the best, with it being repeatedly recommended by Which? in its Best Buys. Weighing in at a featherlight 6.4kg, this is one of the lightest, popular umbrella folds. It used to say that it was suitable from birth but [...]

The Pushchair Track: Cosatto Diablo

Natalie writes… I spotted Mel B using the Cosatto Diablo over at Celebrity Baby Blog, so of course I had to check it out! Stepping onto the pushchair scale and weighing in at 7.5kg, whilst it’s technically a lightweight pushchair, it’s one of the heavier ones – 1.5kg+ heavier than its counterparts. Where it is [...]

The Pushchair Track: Quinny Zapp

Natalie writes… I think it’s fairly safe to say that the Quinny Zapp totally changed the way people thought about lightweight pushchairs. The four-wheeled umbrella fold dominated and then along came the Quinny Zapp, a three wheeler that can become a travel system with a Maxi Cosi Cabriofix car seat. Weighing a very lightweight 6kg, [...]

The Pushchair Track: Limited Edition Butchers Stripe Maclaren Quest

Natalie writes… I have been wanting to feature this buggy from the Maclaren Objects of Design Collection which has included pushchairs from the likes of Phillipe Starck and Lulu Guiness. It’s a Butchers Stripe limited edition version of the Maclaren Quest and it’s to celebrate 40 years since the founder Owen Maclaren invented the first [...]

Micralite Fastfold Buggy

So I’ve been thinking about buying a new pushchair and selling my Quinny Buzz and Mamas and Papas Nipi. It’s been an ongoing deliberation for a while and if I do get a new pushchair, it would be a toss up between this and the Bugaboo Bee. The Micralite Fastfold was actually our second choice [...]

Silver Cross Dazzle: Style on a Budget

Kat writes…. What a name, what a stroller! It was researched on the streets of the world’s fashion capitals and inspired by noodles. The premise is a stylish light-weight buggy which will take your bambino from birth to toddlerhood and on some exciting trips in between. It has the standard features you would expect from [...]
