The Pushchair Track: Bugaboo Gecko Review

April 16, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

We’ve long touted the Bugaboo Bee here at BG, which aside from being super stylish and more compact is actually lighter on your wallet than the famous Chameleon. There is another alternative (a bit of a blast from the past) though in between the two as Emma explains… Concept: The Bugaboo Gecko is the Chameleon’s [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Quest Mod in Big Apple Review

March 10, 2009 by · 1 Comment 

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 [...]

Natalie writes…Ahh…it’s the last day of 2008 and what a year it’s been! I’m feeling nostalgic as I remember the year that’s gone by and getting the usual pre-new year palpitations at the thought of the excitement and challenges ahead! Just over 14 weeks till baby 2 is due! Anyway, as the nostalgia and panic [...]

Buyers Guide: What to consider when buying a stylish pushchair

December 29, 2008 by · 4 Comments 

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: Britax Vigour 4+ Pushchair

November 26, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… Britax is a long established brand that seems to be gaining in popularity over the last few months, particularly with the release of their rather cool Baby Safe Sleeper, a lie flat car seat that can also be used as a moses basket, and also as the carrycot on today’s featured pushchair the [...]

The Pushchair Track: The Cosatto Mobi 3 in 1

November 25, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

Cosatto is definitely one of those brands that quietly sneaking up on you and gaining in popularity. They tend to go for quite vibrant shades even when they have limited colour options and are in the mid price category of pushchairs. Whilst they do position themselves as lightweight, it’s the chassis of the Cosatto Mobi [...]

The Pushchair Track: Silver Cross Sleepover Deluxe 2008

November 21, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… When I went through a phase of being in central London once or twice a week, I was amazed, not only at the number of these that I saw being pushed around, but also by the fact that many of them were being pushed onto buses! The Silver Cross Sleepover comes in two [...]

The Pushchair Track: Quinny Buzz 3

November 20, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

Natalie writes… I have to say, even though I’ve had my moments where this pushchair has wound me up, I still do love the Quinny Buzz 3 (I own one) and with new colours and a limited edition, the love is still strong as it’s getting an injection of newness! Weighing in at 12kg, this [...]

The Pushchair Track: Micralite Toro

November 12, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… I’m quite a fan of the pushchair we almost owned, the Micralite Fastfold, and the Micralite Toro is a bigger variation with a difference; instead of having the hammock style seat of the Fastfold that gives that distinctive look, it has a typical pushchair seat so it can recline fully – The Fastfold [...]

The Pushchair Track: Air Buggy Mimi

November 11, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Aimed at the parent who wants to do a bit of everything, so pushing through busy urban streets to long walks, this is a 3-wheeler that I imagine competes with the likes of Phil and Teds and Baby Joggers but to name a few…. It’s got a streamlined appearance but surprisingly, this doesn’t translate into manouevrability based on the fact that whilst the front wheel does swivel as you’d expect, it doesn’t go into a fixed position so God help you if you end up anywhere particularly uneven and forget rough terrain.

The Pushchair Track: Brio ‘Go’ Travel System

November 10, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… I’m a huge Brio fan, owning a number of their toys and I have plans to buy their Sleep Cotbed for ‘baby 2′, and now I see that they’re making a play for a spot in the fiercely competitive travel system market with their Brio ‘Go’ Travel System. I love the distinctive style [...]

The Pushchair Track: Limited Edition Marc Jacobs Bugaboo

November 7, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… I got super excited when eagle-eyed Kat informed me that Bugaboo has gone and done a bit of a one better moment and is planning to launch a limited edition Marc Jacobs Bugaboo Chameleon. Some of you may already know about the limited edition Quinny collection by HenriK Vibskov which is going on [...]

The Pushchair Track: Phil and Teds Sport

November 6, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… Well as I’m pregnant with ‘baby 2′, it’s only right that I feature the pushchair that I’m going to purchase (either this or the Vibe which will be featured soon). If you’re looking for a double buggy and don’t want to take up most of the pavement, the Phil and Ted’s Sport is [...]

The Pushchair Track: The Bugaboo Chameleon

November 5, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

I have a lot of friends who own Bugaboo Chameleon’s and honestly, even though it may get knocked by the likes of Which?, the consumer magazine and highly rated products reviewer, not one of my friends has a bad word to say about it. Why is it loved so much? Well whilst it’s certainly no [...]
