The Pushchair Track: Petite Star Kurvi

April 9, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

My little sister just had my gorgeous niece on Easter Sunday and she decided that she wanted to get as much style and function as possible in a travel system without spending what she referred to as “crazy money” and came up with the Petite Star Kurvi. Long time BG readers may remember when Kat [...]

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: iCandy Apple Stroller

November 28, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… Today’s featured pushchair, the British designed iCandy Apple Stroller has been making an increasing appearance when I’m out and about which is likely to have been triggered by a number of awards from baby magazines. Weighing in at a rather hefty 13.8kg with the seat on (10kg without), this is one of 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.

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: Quinny Zapp

November 13, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

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: Nipabout 3 in 1 Travel System

Natalie writes… For the next while, we have The Pushchair Track, a daily feature where I’ll be highlighting at least one pushchair or pram plus must have accessories every day because I realise that there are a hell of a lot out there on the market. Naturally it’ll only be stylish (but functional) numbers but [...]

Red Castle

February 7, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

I thought that I had literally checked out every pushchair possible when I was pregnant, but the Red Castle Sports offerings certainly slipped under my radar. Red Castle is a French company based in Provence and is the outdoor brand chosen by active parents. That in itself probably explains how I missed it as I [...]
