im looking for a pushchair

Options
:D Hi all im looking for a 3 in 1 pram 1 with the car seat and carrycot i keep looking on ebay but my partner doesnt want us to buy a second hand pram as this will be our last baby and we are getting things new,we could never do that for our other children it was always hand me downs.

I would love a 3 wheeler but i dont want to pay near £400 for 1 so if anyone knows any good sites or shops in the nothwest that have a good sale on please let me know.

One last thing this site is great :D

    You should also try https://www.twoleftfeet.co.uk. We've just bought a pushchair from them. We went over to their showroom and their staff were really helpful. We also found them the cheapest (after their discount, which varies depending on amount spent).

    It depends where in nwest you live, Ive just bought a silvercross system from john lewis, also theres a lovely shop in handforth called the baby, they also have a web site. Do you really need a three wheeler, i wanted one, but after looking into it discovered they dont always fit into boots of cars !! its worth going to a reputable shop for advise even if you dont buy from them, have a search on google for reviews on prams etc as well, i found it really helpful.

    We have an M&P three wheeler which will only fit into my husbands car, not mine. it is also a bit hard to steer at times, but really useful on rough ground.
    We also have an M&P travel system. We bought both from the M&P factory shop in Huddersfield.

    I live in cheshire but i dont mind a bit of traveling to get the right deal.Thank you for all your replys i have been looking around i found i really really nice pram on toys r us website its a maxx i2i but its £380 with the car seat and i didnt want to pay this much,ive read some reviews on it and they are all good i was also looking at a quinny but again they are near £400.

    When do all the sales start is it june/july? i might wait until then and see if any of them come down,im not due to have my baby until october so i want to start saving now and looking at the price of some of the 3 wheelers i might just go for a normal travel system.

    I have used a Chicco Trio for number 3 baby and a Chicco CT01 for number 4baby, along with many many other travel systems, 3 wheelers, buggys, etc.

    Best pushchair ever, still used when baby 3 was a toddler as it is a similar size to a Maclaren Techno, just slightly more padded. Carrycot lifts on and off pushchair base same as car seat. Carrycot base tilts as well so can raise baby's head up slightly.

    You can buy last years colours new on eBay or here are some links:-

    The last link has loads of travel systems or 3-in-1's at really good prices, HTH!

    Oh and I've had a Quinny Buzz for baby 4 (was desparate to own one of these)! But could not fold it ever! Had to get hubby to fold it and even he struggled. Have read quite a few reports on the internet of other people struggling to fold the frame of the Buzz. My toddler at the time loved the seat though and loved facing me. But it was quite tippy uppy as well and tilted alarmingly on drop kerbs. HTH.

    Just test drive everything and read all the reviews on the internet to help you make up your mind.
  • WIRELOVER the i2i maxx is a absolutely bloody brill pushchair worth every penny but defo hold out for the sales you could end up with a real bargain also if ou join the toys r us mother and baby club you recieve vouchers for travel systems carseats etc so you could make an extra saving on the pram you really want, plus you could always get all your money off coupons then nearer the time purchase it on buy it now and get 6 months interest free credit too. put it this way i would much rather have the i2i maxx than the buzz anyday, the buzz is so over rated, i say save and go for it
