Pushchair for a 6'3" partner any recomendations?

sanfrancisco

We have a mountain buggy.

My hubby is 6'3 and I'm 5'8.

Baby is now 18months and I am the only one of my friends that still uses the original purchased buggy.

I absolutely love it. Expensive though (I think £350 without accessories). But goes like a dream. Another reason we got it was because I have a bad back and wanted something easy to get around. The only downside is if you regularly use a car, it is heavy/bulky to get in.

Congrats on pregnancy. It's so exctiing choosing all the stuff.

I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned but I've got a Britax Vigour which is brilliant, the handle moves up and down on it and at its highest point its far too high for me to use and I'm 5'8".

I bought it because I wanted a parent facing pushchair, but its been great. It isn't the smallest pushchair when its folded down though.

I got it from Mothercare for £250, and you can buy the car seat and a carrycot that goes with it; its certainly not the cheapest out there but its a lot less than a Quinny!

HTH's.

I would recommend the Silvercross sleepover with either the linear chassis or the classic chassis, though the classic is a bit taller.

My husband is 6' 8.5!! We have a loola Up, and it is perfect, i cant recommend this pushchair enough.

Thank you all i have lots to go and look at. I think i am going to end up paying around the £500 anyway unless i go secondhand so i may as well go check them all out and see which one we both like best instead of just buying the first one we saw that fitted. I dont think i am going to bother with a carrycot though weighing it all up it doesnt really seem worth the extra cost. :-) x

I have a mutsy urban rider - briliant pushchair with various options and an adjustable handle.
The mutsy r 4rider lite is very simmilar but a bit lighter.

Hi
We have a silver cross Dazzle which is fine for both my husabnd and son as they are both 6" 5. It comes complete with a carry cot that you can take off once the baby has grown and converts to a pushchair.

We bought ours April last year and it cost us £220 and my grandson absolutely loves it.

Hiya

I have the Mutsy 4 rider which is a smaller version of the Urban rider.

I love mine too. The Mutsy take the maxi cosi car seat which is fab when babies are little as you can transport a sleeping baby straight from the car to the Mutsy chassis.

Also Toys r us have it on special offer at the mo.

I bought my carry cot second hand on ebay and am glad I didn't pay full price as we didn't use it that often.

I cannot reccomend the Mutsy enough - it fits in my Mums mini with the wheels off - the wheels pop off and on.

HTH

Forgot the most important bit - the handle adjusts for me and hubby. I am 5ft2 and hubby is 6ft2.
