| Well last week I had a puncture on my P&T that wouldnt repair with a puncture repair that that slime stuff didnt work either, Halfords dont sell bent valve inners for it so I was stuck without a pushchair for a couple of days... Anyways I think I want to get a single pushchair stroller thing to just have to hand incase this happens again, that way Andrew could walk and Sophie go in the pushchair but it is so difficult chosing one!
I love the silvercross pop with butterflies but the pop has bad reviews, something about a small seat and little ones slouching too much in it.
I have been looking at the Obaby Atlas which seems to have good reviews but I've also been looking at my friends maclaren quest which are nearly twice the price of an atlas ... is it really worth the money?
What small stroller do you have? Would you recommend? |

| I have a zia and love it.
I looked at the silvercross pops but didn't like them at all. If getting a maclaren I wouldn't get the quest. the wheels are so small and i found it hard to push. also the seat seems too far back so child slouches. The maclarens are good but i think it's worth spending more for a better one than quest.
My sister in law has the atlas and really likes it. |

| Hmm, i've got the Pop..and the seat is fine and Oliver don't slouch  My only quible would be the breaks jut out and catch on high kerbs (but looking at some other strollers it seems to be quite common) |

| Ah wow Zee how grown up does Oliver look there!!!
Is the seat small on the pop then? To be honest I'm not overly worried about Sophie as she is average size but Andrew is fairly big and if Andrew wanted a little rest in it for a bit i worry about him fitting in it
Will have to have a look at the zia as i havent realy considered it properly. I want something sturdy and that will last, really dont want to have to buy another pushchair ever after this one Lol!! |
